approvals or require notification to the relevant Agency or to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, FHA or VA. Should
Seller for any reason cease to possess all such applicable approvals, or should notification to the relevant Agency or to the Department
of Housing and Urban Development, FHA or VA be required, Seller shall so notify Buyer immediately in writing.

Seller nor Guarantor is an employee benefit plan as defined in Section 3 of Title I of ERISA, or a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1)

or Guarantor are not subject to any state or local statute regulating investments or fiduciary obligations with respect to governmental

by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or taken any other action which would constitute a distribution of the

(d)The parties acknowledge
that each Agency has certain rights under the applicable Acknowledgement Agreement, including the right to cause the Seller to
transfer servicing to Buyer or Buyer’s designee under certain circumstances as more particularly set forth therein. To the

to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Repurchase Assets and Buyer’s
Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Seller might do.


 


(b)Seller hereby

Section 4.10  Performance by Buyer
of Seller’s Obligations. If Seller fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Program Agreements
and Buyer may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable (under
the circumstances) out-of-pocket expenses of Buyer actually incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together
with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate shall be payable by Seller to Buyer on demand and shall constitute
Obligations. Such interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in each Price Differential Period and a
360-day year.


 


Section 4.11  Proceeds. If an
Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (a) all proceeds of Repurchase Assets received by Seller consisting of cash,
checks and other near-cash items shall be held by Seller in trust for Buyer, segregated from other funds of Seller, and shall forthwith
upon receipt by Seller be turned over to Buyer in the exact form received by Seller (duly endorsed by Seller to Buyer, if required)
and (b) any and all such proceeds received by Buyer (whether from Seller or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of Buyer,
be held by Buyer as collateral security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by Buyer against, the Obligations
(whether matured or unmatured), such application to be in such order as Buyer shall elect. Any balance of such proceeds remaining
after the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated shall be paid over to Seller or
to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.


 


Section 4.12  Remedies. If an
Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Buyer may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it
in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and
remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (including without limitation, Buyer’s rights to a strict foreclosure
under Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer may seek the appointment
of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee, or similar official in respect of Seller or any of Seller’s property. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer may terminate the Participation Interest in accordance with the Participation Agreement.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement
or notice of any kind (except any notice required under this Agreement or by law referred to below) to or upon Seller or any other
Person (each and all of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances
forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell,
lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Repurchase Assets or any part thereof
(or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as an entirety at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange,
broker’s board or office of Buyer or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices
as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Buyer shall have the right
upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole
or any part of the Repurchase Assets so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Seller, which right or equity is hereby
waived or released. Seller further agrees, at Buyer’s request, to assemble the Repurchase Assets and make it available to
Buyer at places which Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at Seller’s premises or elsewhere. Buyer shall apply the net
proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable (under the
circumstances) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping
of any of the Repurchase Assets or in any way relating to the Repurchase Assets or the rights of Buyer hereunder, including without
limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order
as Buyer may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by Buyer of any other amount required or permitted by
any provision of law, including without limitation Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Buyer account for the
surplus, if any, to Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire
against Buyer arising out of the exercise by Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands
arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Repurchase
Assets shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or
other disposition. Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as contemplated herein) if the
proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Repurchase Assets are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements
in amounts reasonable under the circumstances, of any attorneys employed by Buyer to collect such deficiency. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein or in any of the other Program Agreements, the remedies set forth in this Section 4.11 shall be subject
to the Servicing Contracts and Acknowledgement Agreements entered into with Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, as applicable.


 






    	 	47	 



     

    

 


Section 4.13  Limitation on Duties
Regarding Preservation of Repurchase Assets. Buyer’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation
of the Repurchase Assets in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal
with it in the same manner as Buyer deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Buyer nor any of its directors, officers
or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Repurchase Assets or for any
delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Repurchase Assets upon the request of Seller
or otherwise.


 


Section 4.14  Powers Coupled with
an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Repurchase Assets are irrevocable and powers
coupled with an interest.


 


Section 4.15  Release of Security
Interest. Upon the latest to occur of (a) the repayment to Buyer of all Obligations and the performance of all obligations
under the Program Agreements, and (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, Buyer shall release its security interest in any
remaining Repurchase Assets hereunder and shall promptly execute and deliver to Seller such documents or instruments as Seller
shall reasonably request to evidence such release; provided, that such release shall not be required until such time as the Acknowledgment
Agreement is terminated.


 


Section 4.16  Reinstatement.
All security interests created by this Article IV shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any
time any payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation of Seller or Guarantor is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned
by the Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or Guarantor or upon or as a
result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or Guarantor or
any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as if such release had not been made.

Section 4.17  Subordination.


 


(a)It is anticipated
that in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Program Agreements, that (x) the Underlying Spread Counterparty is
pledging the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread to the Seller subject to the Lien of the Buyer and (y) Seller hereby reaffirms such
Lien. Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase Assets under the Master Spread Acquisition
Agreement are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to (i) the rights of Buyer under this Agreement and
(ii) the rights of the Buyer under the Security Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, Seller agrees to subordinate all of
the rights under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement to the rights of the Buyer hereunder and under the other Program Agreements.
In furtherance of the foregoing, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to Seller under the Master Spread Acquisition
Agreement and Underlying Spread Documents, applicable law or otherwise, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, exercise any
remedies available to it under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement and Underlying Spread Documents or at law or equity for
ninety-one (91) days following the date that all Obligations are paid in full under the Program Agreements. For the avoidance of
doubt, in no instance shall the Buyer succeed to any liabilities or obligations of Seller under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement
or the Underlying Spread Documents.


 


(b)In furtherance
of the foregoing, Seller agrees to not assert any objection to, and shall be deemed to have otherwise consented to, a disposition
of any assets subject to the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement, Underlying Spread Documents or the Program Agreements during
an Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller, free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims
under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar bankruptcy law) if Buyer has consented to such disposition.


 


(c)If an Act of Insolvency
of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller occurs, the Seller agrees not to contest (or support any other Person contesting) any
request by Buyer for adequate protection, or any objection by Buyer to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on Buyer
claiming a lack of adequate protection.


 


(d)Until the obligations
under the Program Agreements are paid in full, the Seller shall not oppose any request by Buyer for relief from the automatic stay
or any other stay in any Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller.


 


(e)Seller shall not
oppose or seek to challenge any claim by Buyer for allowance and payment in any Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty
or Seller, of obligations under the Program Agreements consisting of post-petition interest, fees, costs or other charges to the
extent of the value of Buyer’s lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims on the assets that are the subject of this Agreement,
the Security Agreement or the Underlying Spread Documents, without regard to the existence of a lien, encumbrance, pledge or other
claims of Underlying Spread Counterparty applicable to the obligations of the other parties to the Program Agreements.


 






    	 	49	 



     

    

 


(f)Seller shall not
seek in any Act of Insolvency of the Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller, to be treated as part of the same class of creditors
as Buyer and shall not oppose any pleading or motion by Buyer advocating that Buyer and Underlying Spread Counterparty and Seller
should be treated as separate classes of creditors. Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase
Assets are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer under this Agreement.

contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreements, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without
limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding

(b)Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without
limitation, all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Repurchase Assets and/or any
applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”). Seller understands that the Confidential
Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act (the “Act”), and Seller agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder
in accordance with the Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws. Seller shall implement such physical and other
security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information”
of the “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the Act) of Buyer or any Affiliate of
Buyer which Seller holds, (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal
information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information. Seller represents
and warrants that it has implemented appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the Act and of the applicable
standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect. Upon request, Seller will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory
to allow Buyer to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this section. Without limitation,
this may include Buyer’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of Seller. Seller
shall notify Buyer immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of
nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer provided directly to Seller by
Buyer or such Affiliate. Seller shall provide such notice to Buyer by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt,
or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.


 


Section
10.12  Set-off. In addition
to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller or Guarantor,
any such notice being expressly waived by Seller and Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate
and apply against any Obligation from Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return
funds to Seller), credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent,
matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account
of Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller or Guarantor after any such set off and application
made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section
10.13  Intent.


 


(a)The parties recognize
that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United
States Code, as amended and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United
States Code, as amended and that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments”
as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code.


  


(b)It is understood
that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise
any other remedies pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in
Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.


 


(c)The parties agree
and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,”
as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject
to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).


 


(d)It is understood
that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction
hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”,
respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution”
as that term is defined in FDICIA).


 


(e)This Agreement
is intended to be a “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555
and Section 559 under the Bankruptcy Code.


 


Section 10.14  Amendment and Restatement. The terms and provisions of the Existing Agreement shall be amended and restated in their
entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

THE ASSETS


 


The Seller makes the
following representations and warranties to the Buyer, with respect to Servicing Contracts subject to each Transaction, as of the
date of this Agreement, the date of any Transaction, and while the Program Agreements are in full force and effect. The representations
and warranties shall be limited to Servicing Contracts that are acquired on or after the date of this Agreement. For purposes of
this Schedule 1 and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed
to have been cured with respect to the Servicing Contracts if and when the Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that
the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Servicing Contracts.


 


(a)Asset Schedule.
The Asset Schedule most recently submitted to Buyer is a true and complete list of the Assets pledged hereunder as of the date
of submission.


 


(b)Servicing Contracts.
All of the Servicing Contracts with respect to such Assets are in full force and effect and have not been modified and Seller as
servicer has not been terminated thereunder.


 


(c)Assignment.
Pursuant to this Agreement, Seller grants to the Buyer a valid security interest in all the right, title and interest of such Seller
in and to the Repurchase Assets and the other Related Security, which security interest is perfected and of first priority, enforceable
against, and creating an interest prior in right to, all creditors of and purchasers from Seller.


 


(d)No Liens.
Each Purchased Asset conveyed and pledged on such Purchase Date is owned by the related Seller free and clear of any Lien, except
as provided herein, and is not subject to any dispute or other Adverse Claim, except as provided herein. The Buyer’s security
interest in such Purchased Assets, the Related Security and the Collections with respect thereto, is free and clear of any Lien,
except as provided herein. The Seller has not and will not prior to the time of the pledge of any such interest to the Buyer have
sold, pledged, assigned, transferred or subjected and will not thereafter sell, pledge, assign, transfer or subject to a Lien any
of such Purchased Assets, the Related Security or the Collections other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


(e)Filings.
On or prior to each Purchase Date, all financing statements and other documents required to be recorded or filed in order to perfect
the Buyer’s security interest in, and protect the Assets and the other related Assets against all creditors of, and purchasers
from, Seller and all other Persons whatsoever have been duly filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose, and all filing
fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings have been paid in full.


 


(f)Collection
Policy. Seller has complied in all material respects with the Collection Policy in regard to each Asset and related Servicing
Contract. Seller has not extended or modified the terms of any Asset or the related Servicing Contract except in accordance with
the Collection Policy.


 






    	 	Schedule 1-A-1	 



     

    


 


(g)Bona Fide
Asset. Each Purchased Asset being sold and/or pledged on an Purchase Date is an obligation arising out of the making
of a Servicer Advance by the related Seller or a predecessor servicer, in its capacity as a servicer or subservicer of a portfolio
of mortgage loans, pursuant to a Servicing Contract. The Seller has no knowledge of any fact that should have led it to expect
at the time of the creation of each Purchased Asset that such Purchased Asset would not be paid in full when due. As of the Purchase
Date, the Seller has not received any Collections or other payments in respect of the Purchased Assets, and each Purchased Asset
is an Eligible Asset.


 


(h)Servicer Advances
Reimbursable. The terms of the Servicing Contracts provide that each Servicer Advance is reimbursable to the Seller from collections
on the related mortgage loan, or collections on other mortgage loans serviced or subserviced by the Seller pursuant to the related
Servicing Contract.


 


(i)Compliance
with Servicing Contract. Each Servicer Advance has been made in accordance with the terms of the related Servicing Contract.


 


(j)Adverse Selection.
Seller has not selected the Purchased Assets in a manner that will adversely affect Buyer’s interests.


 


(k)No Subservicing.
Except as otherwise disclosed to Buyer, all of the Purchased Assets constituting Servicing Rights hereunder constitute direct servicing
rights (and not subservicing rights.)


 


(l)Good Title.
Seller has good title to all of the Repurchase Assets other than the Portfolio Excess Spread, free and clear of all mortgages,
security interests, restrictions, Liens and encumbrances of any kind other than the Liens created by the Program Agreements. The

perfected pursuant to the Security Agreement, but otherwise, free and clear of all mortgages, security interests, restrictions,
Liens and encumbrances of any kind.


 


(m)No Defenses.
Each item of the Repurchase Assets was acquired by Seller in the ordinary course of its business, in good faith, for value and
without notice of any defense against or claim to it on the part of any Person and there are no agreements or understandings between
Seller and any other party which would modify, release, terminate or delay the attachment of the security interests granted to
Buyer under this Agreement and no obligor has any defense, set off, claim or counterclaim against Seller that can be asserted against
Buyer, whether in any proceeding to enforce the Buyer’s rights in the related Mortgage Loan or otherwise.


 


(n)Amount Outstanding.
The amount represented by Seller to Buyer as owing by an obligor under each Mortgage Loan being serviced under a Servicing Contract
is the correct amount actually owing by that obligor.


 


(o)Servicing Compliance
with Applicable Laws. Seller has complied with the terms of the Servicing Contract and applicable laws in all material respects.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE:

UNDERLYING SPREAD TRANSACTIONS


 


The Seller makes the following representations
and warranties to the Buyer, with respect to Underlying Spread Transactions, as of the date of this Agreement, the date of the

(f)No Waiver.
Except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, Seller has not waived the performance by Underlying Spread Counterparty of any
action under the Underlying Spread Documents, if Underlying Spread Counterparty’s failure to perform such action would cause
the Underlying Spread Transaction to be in default in any material respect nor, except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer,

(g)No Defaults.

any of their respective predecessors, have waived any default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration; and
all maintenance charges and assessments (including assessments payable in the future installments, which previously became due
and owing) have been paid.


 


(h)Delivery of

Documents) under, any material servicing agreement, participation agreement, agreement, partnership agreement, or other agreement
or instrument to which Underlying Spread Counterparty is a party or to which any of its property is subject, nor will such action

only be for the full amount of the Purchase Price then outstanding hereunder.

the Underlying Spread Documents (i) will not cause Underlying Spread Counterparty to become insolvent, (ii) will not result in
any property remaining with Underlying Spread Counterparty to be unreasonably small capital, and (iii) will not result in debts
that would be beyond Underlying Spread Counterparty’s ability to pay as same mature. Underlying Spread Counterparty receives
reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer and pledge of the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread in accordance with
the Underlying Spread Documents.


 


(n)Ownership.

or pledged by Seller other than pursuant to this Agreement and the Security Agreement. Underlying Spread Counterparty has good,
indefeasible and marketable title to the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread, and has full right to pledge and assign the Repledge
Portfolio Excess Spread to Buyer under the Security Agreement free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest,
lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of,
or agreement with, any other party, to assign and pledge the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread pursuant to the Security Agreement.
