Interest shall continue to accrue at the interest rate required by this Section 2 and Section 4 of this Note after the maturity
or default of this loan.
3. PAYMENTS
(A) Amount of My Initial Monthly Payments
I will pay principal and interest by making payments each month ("monthly payments"). M
will be in the sum of U.S. $ 491.06 y initial monthly payment
This amount may change.
(B) Monthly Payment Changes
Changes in my monthly payment will reflect changes in the unpaid principal of my loan and in the interest rate that I

with Section 4 of this Note.

4. INTEREST RATE AND MONTHLY PAYMENT CHANGES
(A) Change Dates
The interest rate I will pay may change on the 1St day of June, 2003 and on the 1St
day of every 6th month(s) thereafter. Each date on which my interest rate could change is called a
"Change Date."
(B) The Index
Beginning with the first Change Date, my interest rate will be based on an Index. The "Index" is the average of
interbank offered rates for 6 Month Libor U.S. dollar-denominated deposits in the London market based on quotations of
major banks, as published by The Wall Street Journal. The most recent Index figure available as of the 20th day of the calendar
month immediately preceding each Change Date is called the "Current Index."
If the Index is no longer available, or is no longer published by The Wall Street Journal, the Note Holder will choose a
new index or source of index that is based upon comparable information. The Note Holder will give me notice of this choice.
(C) Calculation of Changes
Before each Change Date, the Note Holder will calculate my new interest rate by adding Six and 2/5
percentage points ( 6.400 %) to the Current Index. The Note Holder will then round the
result of this addition up to the nearest one-eighth of one percentage point (0.125%). Subject to the limits stated in Section
4(D) below, this rounded amount will be my new interest rate until the next Change Date.
The Note Holder will then determine the amount of the monthly payment that would be sufficient to repay the unpaid
principal that I am expected to owe at the Change Date in full on the Maturity Date at my new interest rate in substantially equal
payments. The result of this calculation will be the new amount of my monthly payment.
(D) Limits on Interest Rate Changes
The interest rate I am required to pay at the first Change Date will not be greater than 13.250 % or less
than 10.250 %. Thereafter, my interest rate will never be increased or decreased on any single Change Date by
more than One percentage point(s) ( 1.000 %) from the rate of
interest I have been paying for the preceding Six month(s). My interest rate will never be greater than
16.250 %, or less than 10.250 %.
(E) Effective Date of Changes
My new interest rate will become effective on each Change Date. I will pay the amount of my new monthly payment
beginning on the first monthly payment date after the Change Date until the amount of my monthly payment changes again.
(F) Notice of Changes
The Note Holder will deliver or mail to me a notice of any changes in my interest rate and the amount of my monthly
payment before the effective date of any payment change. The notice will include information required by law to be given me
and also the title and telephone number of a person who will answer any question I may have regarding the notice.
S. BORROWER'S FAILURE TO PAY AS REQUIRED
(A) Late Charge for Overdue Payments
If the Note Holder has not received the full amount of any of my monthly payments by the end of 15 calendar
days after the date it is due, I will promptly pay a late charge to the Note Holder. The amount of the charge will be
5.00 % of my full monthly payment. I will pay this late charge only once on any late monthly payment.
(B) Default
If I do not pay the full amount of each monthly payment on the date it is due, I will be in default.
(C) Notice of Default
If I am in default, the Note Holder may send me a written notice telling me that if I do not pay the overdue amount by a
certain date, the Note Holder may require me to pay immediately the full amount of principal which has not been paid and all
the interest that I owe on that amount. That date must be at least 30 days after the date on which the notice is delivered or
mailed to me.
(D) No Waiver by Note Holder
Even if, at a time when I am in default, the Note Holder does not require me to pay immediately in full as described
above, the Note Holder will still have the right to do so if I am in default at a later time.
(E) Payment of Note Holder's Costs and Expenses
If the Note Holder has required me to pay immediately in full as described above, the Note Holder will have the right to
be paid back for all of its costs and expenses to the extent not prohibited by applicable law. Those expenses include, for
example, reasonable attorneys' fees, foreclosure fees and court costs.

(1) Check Collection Charges
If I present the Note Holder with a check, negotiable order of withdrawal, share draft or other instrument in payment
that is returned or dishonored for any reason, I will pay a check collection charge to the Note Holder. The amount of the
charge will not be greater than U.S. $ 15.00
6• THIS NOTE SECURED BY A SECURITY INSTRUMENT
In addition to the protections given to the Note Holder under this Note, a Mortgage, Deed of Trust or Security Deed (the
"Security Instrument"), on real property (the "Property") described in the Security Instrument and dated the same date as this
Note, protects the Note Holder from possible losses which might result if I do not keep the promises which I make in this Note.
The Security Instrument describes how and under what conditions I may also be required to make immediate payment in full of
all amounts I owe under this Note. I agree to these conditions. Some of these conditions are as follows:
Transfer of the Property or a Beneficial Interest in Borrower. If all or any interest in it is sold or transferred (or if a beneficial interest in Borrower is sold or transferred and Borrower
is not a natural person) without Lender's prior written consent, Lender may, at its option, require immediate
payment in full of all sums secured by this Security Instrument. However, this option shall not be exercised by
Lender if exercise is prohibited by federal law as of the date of this Security Instrument.
If Lender exercises this option, Lender shall give Borrower notice of acceleration. The notice shall
provide a period of not less than 30 days from the date the notice is delivered or mailed within which Borrower
must pay all sums secured by this Security Instrument. If Borrower fails to pay these sums prior to the expiration
of this period, Lender may invoke any remedies permitted by this Security Instrument without further notice or
demand on Borrower.
7. BORROWER'S PAYMENTS BEFORE THEY ARE DUE
Subject to the application of payments described in Section 3(C), I have the right to make payments of principal at any
time before they are due. A prepayment of all of the unpaid principal is known as a "full prepayment." A prepayment of only
part of the unpaid principal is known as a "partial prepayment."
If I make a partial prepayment equal to one or more of my monthly payments, my due date may be advanced no more
than one month. If I make any other partial prepayment, I must still make each later payment as it becomes due and in the same
amount.
I may snake a full or partial prepayment at any time. However, if within the first 60
date of this loan I make any prepayment(s) within any months from the
an12-month period whose total amount exceeds 20% of the original
principal amount of this loan, I will pay a prepayment charge equal to six months' interest on the amount by which the total of
my prepayment(s) within that 12-month period exceeds 20% of the original principal amount of this loan.
8. BORROWER'S WAIVERS
I waive my rights to require the Note Holder to do certain things. Those things are: (A) to demand payment of amounts
due (known as "presentment"); (B) to give notice that amounts due have not been aid
obtain an official certification of nonpayment P (known as "notice of dishonor"); (C) to
(known as "protest"). Anyone else who agrees to keep the promises made in this
Note, or who agrees to make payments to the Note Holder if I fail to keep my promises under this Note, or who signs this Note
to transfer it to someone else, also waives these rights. These persons are known as "guarantors," "sureties" and "endorsers."
9. GIVING OF NOTICES
Unless applicable law requires a different method, any notice that must be given to me under this Note will be given by
delivering it or by mailing it by first class mail addressed to me at the Property Address described in the Security Instrument. A
notice will be delivered or mailed to me at a different address if I give the Note Holder a notice of my different address.
Any notice that must be given to the Note Holder under this Note will be given by mailing it by first class mail to the
Note Holder at the address stated in Section 3(C). A notice will be mailed to the Note Holder at a different address if I am
given a notice of that different address.
10. RESPONSIBELITY OF PERSONS UNDER THIS NOTE
If more than one person signs this Note, each of us is fully and personally obligated to pay the full amount owed and to
keep all of the promises made in this Note. Any guarantor, surety, or endorser of this Note (as described in Section 8 above) is
also obligated to do these things. The Note Holder may enforce its rights under this Note against each of us individually or
against all of us together. This means that any one of us may be required to pay all of the amounts owed under this Note. Any
PENNSYLVANIA ADJUSTABLE RATE NOTE (8702) Original - File
N1006-3PA
Pape 3 of 4
0081034878
person who takes over my rights or obligations under this Note will have all of my rights and must keep all of my promises
made in this Note. Any person who takes over the rights or obligations of a guarantor, surety, or endorser of this Note (as
described in Section 8 above) is also obligated to keep all of the promises made in this Note. This Note is intended by Lender
and me as a complete and exclusive statement of its terms, there being no conditions to the enforceability of this Note. This
Note may not be supplemented or modified except in a writing signed by me and the Note Holder. This Note benefits Lender,
its successors and assigns, and binds me and my heirs, personal representatives and assigns.
11. APPLICABLE LAW
This Note shall be governed by the laws of the State of Pennsylvania. If a law which applies to this loan and sets
maximum loan charges is finally interpreted so that the interest and other charges collected or to be collected in connection with
this loan exceed the permitted limits, then: (A) any such interest or other charge shall be reduced by the amount necessary to
reduce the interest or other charge to the permitted limit; and (B) any sums already collected from me which exceeded permitted
limits will be refunded to me. The Note Holder may choose to make this refund by reducing the principal I owe under this
Note or by making a direct payment to me. If a refund reduces principal, the reduction will be treated as a partial prepayment.

TOGETHER with all the improvements now or hereafter erected on the property, and all easements, rigkts,
appurtenances and rents, all of which shall be deemed to be and remain a part of the property covered by this Security
Instrument. All of the foregoing, together with such property (or the leasehold estate if this Security Instrument is on a
leasehold) are called the "Property."
Borrower covenants that Borrower is lawfully seised of the estate hereby conveyed and has the right to mortgage,
grant and convey the Property, and that the Property is unencumbered, except for encumbrances of record. Borrower warrants
and covenants that Borrower will defend generally the title to the Property against all claims and demands, subject to
encumbrances of record. Borrower further warrants, represents and covenants as follows:
1. Payment of Principal and Interest. Borrower shall promptly pay when due the principal and interest indebtedness
and all other charges evidenced by the Note.
2. Funds for Taxes and Insurance. If required by Lender, and subject to applicable law, Borrower shall pay to Lender
on the day monthly payments are due under the Note, until the Note is paid in full, a sum ("Funds") for: (a) yearly taxes and
assessments which may attain priority over this Security Instrument as a lien on the Property; (b) yearly leasehold payments or
ground rents on the Property, if any; (c) yearly hazard or property insurance premiums; (d) yearly flood insurance premiums,
if any; and (e) yearly mortgage insurance premiums, if any. These items are called "Escrow Items." Lender may, at any
time, collect and hold Funds in an amount not to exceed the maximum amount a lender for a federally related mortgage loan
may require for Borrower's escrow account under the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974, as amended from
time to time, 12 U.S.C. Section 2601 et seq. ("RESPA"), unless another law that applies to the Funds sets a lesser amount. If
so, Lender may, at any time, collect and hold Funds in an amount not to exceed the lesser amount. Lender may estimate the
amount of Funds due on the basis of current data and reasonable estimates of expenditures of future Escrow Items or otherwise
in accordance with applicable law.
The Funds shall be held in an institution whose deposits are insured by a federal agency, instrumentality, or entity
(including Lender, if Lender is such an institution) or in any Federal Home Loan Bank. Lender shall apply the Funds to pay
the Escrow Items. Lender may not charge Borrower for holding and applying the Funds, annually analyzing the escrow
account, or verifying the Escrow Items, unless Lender pays Borrower interest on the Funds and applicable law permits Lender
to make such a charge. However, Lender may require Borrower to pay a one-time charge for an independent real estate tax
reporting service used by Lender in connection with this loan, unless applicable law provides otherwise. Unless an agreement
is made or applicable law requires interest to be paid, Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on
the Funds. Borrower and Lender may agree in writing, however, that interest shall be paid on the Funds. Lender shall give
to Borrower, without charge, an annual accounting of the Funds, showing credits and debits to the Funds and the purpose for
which each debit to the Funds was made. The Funds are pledged as additional security for all sums secured by this Security
Instrument.
If the Funds held by Lender exceed the amounts permitted to be held by applicable law, Lender shall account to
Borrower for the excess Funds in accordance with the requirements of applicable law. If the amount of the Funds held by
Lender at any time is not sufficient to pay the Escrow Items when due, Lender may so notify Borrower in writing, and, in
such case Borrower shall pay to Lender the amount necessary to make up the deficiency. Borrower shall make up the
deficiency in no more than twelve monthly payments, at Lender's sole discretion.
Upon payment in full of all sums secured by this Security Instrument, Lender shall promptly refund to Borrower any
Funds held by Lender. If, under Paragraph 18, Lender shall acquire or sell the Property, Lender, prior to the acquisition or
sale of the Property, shall apply any Funds held by Lender at the time of acquisition or sale as a credit against the sums
secured by this Security Instrument.
3. Application of Payments. All payments of principal and interest received by Lender shall be applied as provided in
the Note. If Borrower owes Lender any late charges, or other fees or charges ("other charges"), they will be payable upon
demand of Lender. Unless prohibited by law, the application of payments may be affected by the imposition of other charges.
Therefore, payments of other charges, whether paid to Lender in addition to the monthly payment or separately, will be
applied in a manner at the absolute discretion of the Lender. Borrower agrees that Lender may apply any payment received
under Paragraphs 1 and 2, either first to amounts payable under Paragraph 1, or first to amounts payable under Paragraph 2.
r
PENNSYLVANIA MORTGAGE (97091 Original - Record
M002-2PA Page 2 of 7 0081034878
BOOK J548 PAGE v8O9
4. Prior Mortgages and Deeds of Trust; Charges; Liens. Borrower shall perform all of Borrower's obligations under
any mortgage, deed of trust or other security agreement with a lien which has priority over this Security Instrument, if any,
including Borrower's covenants to make payments when due. Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid all taxes, assessments and
other charges, fines and impositions attributable to the Property which may attain a priority over this Security Instrument, and
leasehold payments or ground rents, if any.
S. Insurance. Borrower shall keep the improvements now existing or hereafter erected on the Property insured against
loss by fire, hazards included within the term "extended coverage," flood and any other hazards as Lender may require, from
time to time, and in such amount and for such periods as Lender may require.
The insurance carrier providing the insurance shall be chosen by Borrower subject to approval by Lender; provided
that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Borrower fails to maintain the coverage described above, Lender
may, at its option, obtain coverage to protect its rights on the Property in accordance with Paragraph 8. All insurance policies
and renewals thereof shall be in a form acceptable to Lender and shall include a standard mortgage clause in favor of and in a
form acceptable to Lender. Lender shall have the right to hold the policies and renewals thereof, subject to the terms of any
mortgage, deed of trust or other security agreement with a lien which has priority over this Security Instrument. If any
insurance proceeds are made payable to Borrower, Borrower shall promptly pay such amounts to Lender, including, without
limitation, the endorsement to Lender of any proceeds made by check or other draft.
Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, insurance proceeds shall be applied to restoration or repair
of the Property damaged, if the restoration or repair is economically feasible and Lender's security is not lessened. If the
restoration or repair is not economically feasible or Lender's security would be lessened, the insurance proceeds shall be
applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with any excess paid to Borrower.
Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, any application of proceeds to principal shall not extend or
postpone the due date of the monthly payments referred to in Paragraphs 1 and 2 or change the amounts of the payments. If
under Paragraph 18 the Property is acquired by Lender, Borrower's right to any insurance policies and proceeds resulting
from damage to the Property prior to the acquisition shall pass to Lender to the extent of the sums secured by this Security
Instrument immediately prior to the acquisition.
The provisions of this Paragraph 5 concerning the payment, disbursement or application of insurance proceeds shall
apply to any insurance proceeds covering the Property whether or not (i) Lender is a named insured, (ii) the policy contains a
mortgage clause, or (iii) Lender has required Borrower to maintain the insurance. Borrower authorizes and directs any insurer
to list Lender as a loss payee on any payment of insurance proceeds upon Lender's notice to insurer of Lender's interest in the
insurance proceeds.
In the event of loss, Borrower shall give prompt notice to the insurance carrier and Lender. Lender may make proof
of loss if not made promptly by Borrower.
If the Property is abandoned by Borrower, or if Borrower fails to respond to Lender within 30 days from the date
notice is mailed by Lender to Borrower that the insurance carrier offers to settle a claim for insurance benefits, Lender is
authorized to collect and apply the insurance proceeds at Lender's option either to restoration or repair of the Property or to
the sums secured by this Security Instrument.
6. Preservation and Maintenance of Property; Leaseholds; Condominiums; Planned Unit Developments. Borrower
shall keep the Property in good repair and shall not commit nor permit waste or impairment or deterioration of the Property.
Borrower shall not do anything affecting the Property that is in violation of any law, ordinance or government regulation
applicable to a residential property, and Borrower shall comply with the provisions of any lease if this Security Instrument is
on a leasehold. If this Security Instrument is on a unit in a condominium or a planned unit development, Borrower shall
perform all of Borrower's obligations under the declaration or covenants creating or governing the condominium or planned
unit development, the by-laws and regulations of the condominium or planned unit development, and constituent documents.
Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, all awards, payments or judgments, including interest
thereon, for any injury to or decrease in the value of the Property received by Borrower will be used to restore the Property or
applied to the payment of sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with any excess paid
to Borrower. Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, any application of proceeds to principal shall not extend
or postpone the due date of the monthly payments referred to in Paragraphs 1 and 2 or change the amounts of the payments.
Borrower agrees that in the event an award, payment or judgment includes compensation for both injury or decrease in the
value of the Property and compensation for any other injury or loss, the total amount of such award, payment or judgment
PENNSYLVANIA MORTGAGE (9709) Original - Record p p
M002-3PA Page 3 of 7 0081034878
BOOK ;45548 PAGE MO
shall be deemed compensation with respect to the Property and Borrower hereby consents to Lender's intervention into any
proceedings regarding the Property.
7. Loan Application Process. Borrower shall be in default under this Security Instrument, if Borrower, during the loan
application process, gave materially false or inaccurate information or statements to Lender (or failed to provide Lender with
any material information directly bearing on Lender's decision to extend credit to Borrower), in connection with the loan
evidenced by the Note.
8. Protection of Lender's Rights in the Property. If Borrower fails to perform the covenants and agreements contained
in this Security Instrument, or there is a legal proceeding that may significantly affect Lender's rights in the Property (such as
a proceeding in bankruptcy, probate, for condemnation, forfeiture, or to enforce laws or regulations), then Lender may do and
pay for whatever is necessary to protect the value of the Property and Lender's rights in the Property. Lender's actions may
include paying any sums secured by a lien which has priority over this Security Instrument, appearing in court, paying
reasonable attorneys' fees and entering on the Property to make repairs or abate nuisances. Although Lender may take action
under this Paragraph 8, Lender does not have to do so. The right of Lender to protect Lender's rights in the Property shall
include the right to obtain at Borrower's expense, property inspections, credit reports, appraisals, opinions of value or other
expert opinions or reports, unless prohibited by law.
Any amounts disbursed by Lender under this Paragraph 8 shall become additional debt of Borrower secured by this
Security Instrument. Unless Borrower and Lender agree to other terms of payment, these amounts shall bear interest from the
date of disbursement at the Note rate and shall be payable, with interest, upon demand of Lender. The Borrower's obligation
to pay the amounts advanced by Lender under this Paragraph 8 shall continue in full force and effect after the entry of any
judgment in mortgage foreclosure or a judgment on the Note.
9. Mortgage Insurance. If Lender required mortgage insurance as a condition of making the loan secured by this
Security Instrument, Borrower shall pay the premiums required to maintain the insurance in effect until such time as the
requirement for the insurance terminates in accordance with Borrower's and Lender's written agreement or applicable law.
10. Inspection. Lender may make or cause to be made reasonable entries upon and inspections of the Property, provided
that Lender shall give Borrower notice prior to any such inspection specifying reasonable cause therefor as related to Lender's
interest in the Property.
11. Condemnation. The proceeds of any award or claim for damages, direct or consequential, in connection with any
condemnation or other taking of the Property, or part thereof, or for conveyance in lieu of condemnation, are hereby assigned
and shall be paid to Lender, subject to the terms of any mortgage, deed of trust or other security agreement with a lien which
has priority over this Security Instrument.
In the event of a total taking of the Property, the proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this Security
Instrument, whether or not then due, with any excess paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taking of the Property in
which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the taking is equal to or greater than the amount of the sums
secured by this Security Instrument immediately before the taking, unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing, the
sums secured by this Security Instrument shall be reduced by the amount of the proceeds multiplied by the following fraction:
(a) the total amount of the sums secured immediately before the taking, divided by (b) the fair market value of the Property
immediately before the taking. Any balance shall be paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taking of the Property in
which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the taking is less than the amount of the sums secured
immediately before the taking, unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing or unless applicable law otherwise
provides, the proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument whether or not the sums are then due.
If the Property is abandoned by Borrower, or if, after notice by Lender to Borrower that the condemnor offers to
make an award or settle a claim for damages, Borrower fails to respond to Lender within 30 days after the date the notice is
given, Lender is authorized to collect and apply the proceeds, at its option, either to restoration or repair of the Property or
the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due.
Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, any application of proceeds to principal shall not extend or
postpone the due date of the monthly payments referred to in Paragraphs 1 and 2 or change the amount of such payments.

12. Borrower Not Released; Forbearance By Lender Not a Waiver; Acceptance of Partial Payment. Extension of the
time for payment or modification of amortization of the sums secured by this Security Instrument granted by Lender to
Borrower or any successor in interest of Borrower shall not operate to release, in any manner, the liability of the original
Borrower and Borrower's successors in interest. Lender shall not be required to commence proceedings against such successor
or may refuse to extend time for payment or otherwise modify amortization of the sums secured by this Security Instrument by
reason of any demand made by the original Borrower and Borrower's successors in interest. Any forbearance by Lender on
one or more occasions in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a
waiver of or preclude the later exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
Lender may accept partial payments from Borrower, without waiving or forbearing any of its rights under this
Security Instrument or under the Note even if such payments are notated as a payment in full, or with a notation of similar
meaning.
13. Successors and Assigns Bound; Joint and Several Liability; Signers. The covenants and agreements herein
contained shall bind, and the rights hereunder shall inure to, the respective successors and assigns of Lender and Borrower,
subject to the provisions of Paragraph 17 hereof. All covenants and agreements of Borrower shall be joint and several. Any
Borrower who signs this Security Instrument, but does not execute the Note: (a) is signing this Security Instrument only to
mortgage, grant and convey that Borrower's interest in the Property to Lender under the terms of this Security Instrument, (b)
is not personally liable on the Note or under this Security Instrument, and (c) agrees that Lender and any other Borrower may
agree to extend, modify, forbear or make any accommodations with regard to the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note
without that Borrower's consent.
14. Notice. Except for any notice required under applicable law to be given in another manner: (a) any notice to
Borrower provided for in this Security Instrument shall be given by delivering it or by mailing such notice by first class mail
addressed to the Property Address or to such other address as Borrower may designate by notice to Lender as provided herein,
and (b) any notice to Lender shall be given by first class mail to Lender's address stated herein or to such other address as
Lender may designate by notice to Borrower as provided herein. Any notice provided for in this Security Instrument shall be
deemed to have been given to Borrower or Lender when given in the manner designated herein.
15. ?, Governing Law; Severability. The state and local laws applicable to this Security Instrument shall be the laws of the
jurisdiction in which the Property is located. The foregoing sentence shall not limit the applicability of federal law to this
Security Instrument. In the event that any provision or clause of this Security Instrument or the Note conflicts with applicable
law, such conflict shall not affect other provisions of this Security Instrument or the Note which can be given effect without
the conflicting provision, and to this end, the provisions of this Security Instrument and the Note are declared to be severable.
As used herein, "costs," "expenses" and "attorneys' fees" include all sums to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or
limited herein.
16. Borrower's Copy. Borrower shall be furnished a copy of the Note and of this Security Instrument at the time of
execution or after recordation hereof.
17. Transfer of the Property or a Beneficial Interest In Borrower. If all or any part of the Property or any interest in it
is sold or transferred (or if a beneficial interest in Borrower is sold or transferred and Borrower is not a natural person)
without Lender's prior written consent, Lender may, at its option, require immediate payment in full of all sums secured by
this Security Instrument. However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender if exercise is prohibited by federal law as of
the date of this Security Instrument.
If Lender exercises this option, Lender shall give Borrower notice of acceleration. The notice shall provide a period
of not less than 30 days from the date the notice is delivered or mailed within which Borrower must pay all sums secured by
this Security Instrument. If Borrower fails to pay these sums prior to the expiration of this period, Lender may invoke any
remedies permitted by this Security Instrument without further notice or demand on Borrower.
is. Acceleration; Remedies. Except as provided in Paragraph 17 hereof, upon Borrower's breach of any covenant or
agreement of Borrower in this Security Instrument, including the.covenants to pay when due any sums secured by this Security
Instrument, Lender prior to acceleration shall give notice to Borrower as provided in Paragraph 14 hereof specifying: (1) the
PENNSYLVANIA MORTGAGE two91 Original - Record
M002-SPA Page 5 of 7 0081034878
41548 PAGE AV
breach; (2) the action required to cure such breach; (3) a date, not less than 30 days from the date the notice is mailed, to
Borrower, by which such breach must be cured; and (4) that failure to cure such breach on or before the date specified in the
notice may result in acceleration of the sums secured by this Security Instrument or foreclosure by judicial proceeding.
The notice shall further inform Borrower of the right to reinstate this Security Instrument after acceleration and the
right to bring a court action or to assert in the judicial proceeding the nonexistence of a default or any other defense of
Borrower to acceleration and foreclosure. If the breach is not cured on or before the date specified in the notice, Lender, at
Lender's option may declare all of the sums secured by this Security Instrument to be immediately due and payable without
further demand and may foreclose this Security Instrument by judicial proceeding and any other remedies permitted by
applicable law. Lender shall be entitled to collect all expenses of foreclosure, including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys' fees, court costs, and costs of documentary evidence, abstracts and title reports, even if the breach is cured prior to
the completion of any foreclosure.
Borrower agrees that the interest rate payable after judgment is entered on the Note, or in an action of mortgage
foreclosure, shall be the rate payable from time to time under the Note.
19. Borrower's Right to Reinstate. Notwithstanding Lender's acceleration of the sums secured by this Security
Instrument due to Borrower's breach, Borrower shall have the right to have any proceedings begun by Lender to enforce this
Security Instrument discontinued up to one hour prior to sale of the Property if. (a) Borrower pays Lender all sums which
would be then due under this Security Instrument and the Note had no acceleration occurred; (b) Borrower cures all breaches
of any other covenants or agreements of Borrower contained in this Security Instrument; (c) Borrower pays all reasonable
attorneys' fees, trustees' fees and court costs; and (d) Borrower takes such action as Lender may reasonably require to assure
that the lien of this Security Instrument, Lender's interest in the Property and Borrower's obligation to pay the sums secured
by this Security Instrument shall continue unimpaired. Upon such payment and cure by Borrower, this Security Instrument and
the obligations secured hereby shall remain in full force and effect as if no acceleration had occurred. This right to reinstate
shall not apply, however, in the case of acceleration pursuant to Paragraph 17.
20. Assignment of Rents; Appointment of Receiver. As additional security hereunder, Borrower hereby assigns to
Lender the rents of the Property, provided that Borrower shall, prior to acceleration under Paragraph 18 hereof or
abandonment of the Property, have the right to collect and retain such rents as they become due and payable.
Upon acceleration under Paragraph 18 hereof or abandonment of the Property, Lender, in person, by agent or by
judicially appointed receiver, shall be entitled to enter upon, take possession of and manage the Property and to collect the
rents of the Property including those past due. All rents collected by Lender or the receiver shall be applied first to payment of
the costs of management of the Property and collection of rents, including, but not limited to, receiver's fees, premiums on
receiver's bonds and reasonable attorneys' fees, and then to the sums secured by this Security Instrument. Lender and the
receiver shall be liable to account only for those rents actually received.
21. Hazardous Substances. Borrower shall not cause or permit the presence, use, disposal, storage, or release of any
Hazardous Substances on or in the Property. Borrower shall not do, nor allow anyone else to do, anything affecting the
Property that is in violation of any Environmental Law. The preceding two sentences shall not apply to the presence, use, or
storage on the Property of small quantities of Hazardous Substances that are generally recognized to be appropriate for normal
residential uses and for maintenance of the Property.
Borrower shall promptly give Lender written notice of any investigation, claim, demand, lawsuit or other action by
any governmental or regulatory agency or private party involving the Property and any Hazardous Substance or
Environmental Law of which Borrower has actual knowledge. If Borrower learns, or is notified by any governmental or
regulatory authority, that any removal or other remediation of any Hazardous Substance affecting the Property is necessary,
Borrower shall promptly take all necessary remedial actions in accordance with Environmental Law.
As used in this Paragraph 21, "Hazardous Substances" are those substances defined as toxic or hazardous substances
by Environmental Law and the following substances: gasoline, kerosene, other flammable or toxic petroleum products, toxic
pesticides and herbicides, volatile solvents, materials containing asbestos or formaldehyde, and radioactive materials. As used
in this Paragraph 21, "Environmental Law" means federal laws and laws of the jtt;isdiction where the Property is located that
relate to health, safety or environmental protection.

ADJUSTABLE RATE RIDER
(LIBOR 6 Month Libor Index--Rate Caps)
THIS ADJUSTABLE RATE RIDER is made this 25th day of May
1999 , and is incorporated into and shall be deemed to amend and supplement the Mortgage, Deed of Trust or Security
Deed (the "Security Instrument") of the same date given by the undersigned (the "Borrower") to secure Borrower's Note (the
"Note") to TMS Mortgage Inc., dba The Money Store
(the "Lender") of the same date and covering the property described in the Security Instrument and located at:
8 Poplar Street, Wormleysburg. PA 17043
[Property Address]
THE NOTE CONTAINS PROVISIONS ALLOWING FOR CHANGES IN THE INTEREST RATE AND THE
MONTHLY PAYMENT. THE NOTE LIMITS THE AMOUNT THE BORROWER'S INTEREST RATE CAN
CHANGE AT ANY ONE TIME AND THE MINIMUM AND THE MAXIMUM RATE THE BORROWER MUST
PAY.
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS. In addition to the covenants and agreements made in the Security Instrument, Borrower
and Lender further covenant and agree as follows:
INTEREST RATE AND MONTHLY PAYMENT CHANGES
The Note provides for an initial interest rate of 10.250 %. The Note provides for changes in the interest
rate and the monthly payments, as follows:
4. INTEREST RATE AND MONTHLY PAYMENT CHANGES
(A) Change Dates
The interest rate I will pay may change on the 1St day of June, 2003 and on the 1St
day of every 6th month(s) thereafter. Each date on which my interest rate could change is called a "Change
Date."
(B) The Index
Beginning with the first Change Date, my interest rate will be based on an Index. The "Index" is the average of interbank
offered rates for 6 Month Libor U.S. dollar-denominated deposits in the London market based on quotations of major
banks, as published by The Wall Street Journal. The most recent Index figure available as of the 20th day of the calendar
month immediately preceding each Change Date is called the "Current Index."
If the Index is no longer available, or is no longer published by The Wall Street Journal, the Note Holder will choose a
new index or source of index that is based upon comparable information. The Note Holder will give me notice of this choice.
(C) Calculation of Changes
Before each Change Date, the Note Holder will calculate my new interest rate by adding Six and 2/5
percentage points ( 6.400 %) to the current index. The Note Holder will then
round the result of this addition up to the nearest one-eighth of one percentage point (0.125 %). Subject to the limits stated in
Section 4(D) below, this rounded amount will be my new interest rate until the next Change Date.

M005R1 , : '•/ Page 1 of 2
M MR
INUN
BOOk1548PAGE Sib 0081034878RRAJ - 405 $0.00
The Note Holder will then determine the amount of the monthly payment that would be sufficient to repay the unpaid
principal that I am expected to owe at the Change Date in full on the Maturity Date at my new interest rate in substantially equal
payments. The result of this calculation will be the new amount of my monthly payment.
(D) Limits on Interest Rate Changes
The interest rate I am required to pay at the first Change Date will not be greater than 13.250 % or less
than 10.250 %. Thereafter, my interest rate will never be increased or decreased on any single Change
Date by more than One percentage point(s) ( 1.000 %) from
the rate of interest I have been paying for the preceding S i X month(s). My interest rate will never be greater
than 16.250 %, or less than 10.250 %.
(E) Effective Date of Changes
My new interest rate will become effective on each Change Date. I will pay the amount of my new monthly payment
beginning on the first monthly payment date after the Change Date until the amount of my monthly payment changes again.
(F) Notice of Changes
The Note Holder will deliver or mail to me a notice of any changes in my interest rate and the amount of my monthly
payment before the effective date of any payment change. The notice will include information required by law to be given me
and also the title and telephone number of a person who will answer any question I may have regarding the notice.
BY SIGNING BELOW, Borrower accepts and agrees to the terms and covenants contained in this Adjustable Rate Rider.

600 N. Royal Ave
Evansville, IN 47715
Phone Number: 1- 800-205-8640
Fax Number: 1- 812475-7235
You can cure any other default by taking the following action within THIRTY THREE (33) DAYS of the
date of this letter.
IF YOU DO NOT CURE THE DEFAULT - If you do not cure the default within THIRTY THREE (33)
DAYS of the date of this Notice, the lender intends to exercise its right to accelerate the mortgage debt
This means that the entire outstanding balance of this debt will be considered due immediately and you
may lose the chance to pay the mortgage in monthly installments. If full payment of the total amount past
due is not made within THIRTY THREE (33) DAYS, the lender also intends to instruct its attorney to start
legal action to foreclose upon your mortgaged pronertv
IF THE MORTGAGE IS FORECLOSED UPON - The mortgaged property will be sold by the Sheriff
to pay off the mortgage debt. If the lender refers your case to its attorneys, but you cure the delinquency
before the lender begins legal proceedings against you, you will still be required to pay the reasonable
attorney's fees that were actually incurred, up to $50.00. However, if legal proceedings are started against
you, you will have to pay all reasonable attorney's fees actually incurred by the lender even if they exceed
$50.00. Any attorney's fees will be added to the amount you owe the lender, which may also include our
reasonable costs. If you cure the default within the THIRTY THREE (33) DAY period you will not
be required to pay attorney's fees.
OTHER LENDER REMEDIES - The lender may also sue you personally for the unpaid principal
balance and all other sums due under the mortgage.
RIGHT TO CURE THE DEFAULT PRIOR TO SHERIFF'S SALE - If you have not cured the default
within the THIRTY THREE (33) DAY period and foreclosure proceedings have begun, you still have the
right to cure the default and prevent the sale at any time up to one hour before the Sheriff's Sale You may
do so by paying the total amount then past due plus any late or other charges then due reasonable
attorney's fees and costs connected with the foreclosure sale and any other costs connected with the .
Sheriff s Sale as specified in writing by the lender and by performing any other requirements under the
mortgage. Curing your default in the manner set forth in this notice will restore your mortgage to the same
position as if you had never defaulted.
EARLIEST POSSIBLE SHERIFF'S SALE DATE - It is estimated that the earliest date that such a
Sheriffs Sale of the mortgaged property could be held would be approximately Five (5) months from the
date of this Notice. A notice of the actual date of the Sheriff s Sale will be sent to you before the sale. Of
course, the amount needed to cure the default will increase the longer you wait. You may find out at any
time exactly what the required payment or action will be by contacting the lender.

NATURE OF THE DEFAULT - The MORTGAGE held by the above lender on your property located at:
8 Poplar St.

e) Other Charges and Advances: $ 0.00
f) Less funds in Suspense: $ 310.00

YOU HAVE FAILED TO TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTION:
HOW TO CURE THE DEFAULT - You may cure the default within THIRTY THREE (33) DAYS of
the date of this notice BY PAYING THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAST DUE TO THE LENDER, WHICH
IS $1,238.12, PLUS ANY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS AND LATE CHARGES WHICH BECOME DUE
DURING THE THIRTY THREE (33) DAY PERIOD. Payments must be made either by cash, cashier's

REGULAR MAIL
MorEquity
600 N. Royal Ave
Evansville, IN 47715
Phone Number: 1- 800-205-8640
Fax Number: 1- 812475-7235
You can cure any other default by taking the following action within THIRTY THREE (33) DAYS of the
date of this letter.
IF YOU DO NOT CURE THE DEFAULT - If you do not cure the default within THIRTY THREE (33)
DAYS of the date of this Notice, the lender intends to exercise its right to accelerate the mortgage debt
This means that the entire outstanding balance of this debt will be considered due immediately and you
may lose the chance to pay the mortgage in monthly installments. If full payment of the total amount past
due is not made within THIRTY THREE (33) DAYS, the lender also intends to instruct its attorney to start
legal action to foreclose upon your mortgaged property.
IF THE MORTGAGE IS FORECLOSED UPON - The mortgaged property will be sold by the Sheriff
to pay off the mortgage debt. If the lender refers your case to its attorneys, but you cure the delinquency
before the lender begins legal proceedings against you, you will still be required to pay the reasonable
attorney's fees that were actually incurred, up to $50.00. However, if legal proceedings are started against
you, you will have to pay all reasonable attorney's fees actually incurred by the lender even if they exceed
$50.00. Any attorney's fees will be added to the amount you owe the lender, which may also include our
reasonable costs. If you cure the default within the THIRTY THREE (33) DAY period, you will not
be reauired to pay attorney's fees.
OTHER LENDER REMEDIES - The lender may also sue you personally for the unpaid principal
balance and all other sums due under the mortgage.
RIGHT TO CURE THE DEFAULT PRIOR TO SHERIFF'S SALE - If you have not cured the default
within the THIRTY THREE (33) DAY period and foreclosure proceedings have begun, you still have the
right to cure the default and prevent the sale at any time up to one hour before the Sheriff's Sale You may
do so by paving the total amount then past due, plus any late or other charges then due reasonable
attorney's fees and costs connected with the foreclosure sale and any other costs connected with the
Sheriff's Sale as specified in writing by the lender and by performing any other requirements under the
mortgage. Curing your default in the manner set forth in this notice will restore your mortgage to the same
position as if you had never defaulted.
EARLIEST POSSIBLE SHERIFF'S SALE DATE - It is estimated that the earliest date that such a
Sheriff s Sale of the mortgaged property could be held would be approximately Five (5) months from the
date of this Notice. A notice of the actual date of the Sheriff's Sale will be sent to you before the sale. Of
course, the amount needed to cure the default will increase the longer you wait. You may find out at any
time exactly what the required payment or action will be by contacting the lender.

EFFECT OF SHERIFF'S SALE - You should realize that a Sheriffs Sale will end your ownership of the
mortgaged property and your right to occupy it. If you continue to live in the property after the Sheriff's

any time.
ASSUMPTION OF MORTGAGE - You may or XXX may not (CHECK ONE) sell or transfer
