mortgage was assigned to PLAINTIFF which Assignment is recorded in Assignment of
Mortgage Book No. 550, Page 434.
The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached.
The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said
mortgage due 4/1/02 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of
said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by
written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon

Pennsylvania Law, and will be collected in the event of a third party purchaser at

required by 35 P.S. §1680.403c.
10.

Counseling Agency in accordance with Plaintiff's written Notice to Defendants;
or
(ii.) Defendant(s) application for assistance has been rejected by the Pennsylvania
Housing Finance Agency.
