 MORTGAGE LOAN PARTICIPATION PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT 

This is a MORTGAGE LOAN PARTICIPATION PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of August 25, 2020, between
Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent (“Agent”) and purchaser (“Purchaser”) and loanDepot.com, LLC, as Seller (“Seller”). 

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 
 Seller
desires to sell to Purchaser from time to time all of Seller’s beneficial right, title and interest in and to designated pools of fully amortizing first lien residential Mortgage Loans eligible in the aggregate to back Securities, and the
servicing rights relating thereto, with the terms described in related Takeout Commitments, each in the form of a 100% undivided beneficial ownership interest evidenced by a Participation Certificate. 

Purchaser desires and may, in its sole discretion, purchase such Participation Certificates from Seller in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement. Seller, subject to the terms hereof, will cause (a) the Related Mortgage Loans to back a Security issued by Seller and guaranteed by the Applicable Agency, and (b) Delivery of such Security by the
Applicable Agency to Purchaser or its designee in exchange for the Related Participation Certificate, which Security will be purchased by a Takeout Investor. 

Purchaser’s willingness to purchase any Participation Certificate evidencing a beneficial interest in the Related Mortgage Loans and the
servicing rights related thereto is at the sole discretion of Purchaser and based on Purchaser’s expectation, in reliance upon Seller’s representations and warranties herein, that (a) such Mortgage Loans in the aggregate, constitute a
pool or pools of mortgage loans that are eligible to back a Security, (b) such Mortgage Loans are sufficient for Seller to issue and the Applicable Agency to guarantee the Security, (c) such Security will be issued in the amount and with
the terms described in the related Takeout Commitment, (d) Purchaser’s broker-dealer affiliate, Barclays Capital Inc. (“BCI”) will receive Delivery of such Security on the specified Anticipated Delivery Date on behalf of
Purchaser, and (e) such Security will be purchased by the related Takeout Investor. 
 The amount of the Purchase Price and the
Completion Fee to be paid by Purchaser to Seller with respect to each Participation Certificate will be calculated on the expectation of Purchaser, based upon the representations and warranties of Seller herein, that Purchaser or BCI, on behalf of
Purchaser, will receive Delivery of the Security to be backed by the Related Mortgage Loans on the specified Anticipated Delivery Date, that failure to receive such Delivery will result in a material decrease in the market value of the Participation
Certificate and the Related Mortgage Loans considered as a whole and that the related Takeout Investor will purchase the Security from Purchaser or BCI, on behalf of Purchaser. During the period from the purchase of a Participation Certificate to
Delivery of the related Security, Purchaser expects to rely entirely upon Seller (or its designated subservicer) to subservice the Related Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Purchaser, it being acknowledged that the continued effectiveness of
Seller’s (or such subservicer’s) Approvals during such period constitutes an essential factor in the calculation by Agent of the Purchase Price and the Completion Fee paid to Seller for the Related Participation Certificate and that loss
of such Approvals by Seller would result in a material decrease in the market value of the Participation Certificate and the Related Mortgage Loans considered as a whole.

discretion, net any unpaid Security Settlement Fee from the proceeds of any Purchase Price paid by Purchaser to Seller.

Custodian provided by Section 2 of the Custodial Agreement or, with respect to a Security, such Security shall have been delivered to the Purchaser;

Seller hereby assigns to BCI, free of any security interest, lien, claim or encumbrance of any kind, Seller’s rights under each Takeout

satisfy the obligation under the Takeout Commitment to deliver the Security to the Takeout Investor on the Settlement Date specified therein. Seller understands that, as a result of this Section 3 and each Trade Assignment,
BCI will succeed to the rights and obligations of 

  
 - 24 - 













 
Seller with respect to each Takeout Commitment subject to a Trade Assignment, and that in satisfying each such Takeout Commitment, BCI will stand in the shoes of Seller and, consequently, will be
acting as a non-dealer in exercising its rights and fulfilling its obligations assigned pursuant to this Section 3 and each Trade Assignment. Each Trade Assignment delivered by Seller
to Purchaser shall be delivered by Seller in a timely manner sufficient to enable BCI to facilitate the settlement of the related trade on the trade date in accordance with Chapter 8 of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets
Association’s Uniform Practices for the Clearance and Settlement of Mortgage Backed Securities and other Related Securities, as amended from time to time. 

Section 4. Completion Fee. 

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the Completion Fee for each Participation Certificate that Purchaser
elects to purchase hereunder as follows: (i) the Initial Completion Fee Installment shall be paid on the date of Delivery of the related Security and (ii) the Final Completion Fee Installment shall be paid on the later to occur of the
Settlement Date of the related Security and the date of receipt by BCI of the Trade Price with respect to such related Security. 
 (b)
Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4 and in Section 5(b), and subject to Purchaser’s right of set-off set forth in
Section 12, the Completion Fee owed by Purchaser with respect to a Participation Certificate, if any, shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller in full by not later than the Settlement Date of the related Security in accordance

 (c) Upon exercise by Purchaser of its remedies under Section 6(f),
Purchaser’s obligation to pay and Seller’s right to receive any portion of the Completion Fee relating to such Related Mortgage Loans shall automatically be canceled and become null and void; provided, that such cancellation
shall in no way relieve Seller or otherwise affect the obligation of Seller to indemnify and hold Purchaser and Agent harmless as specified in Section 13. At no time shall Seller have any beneficial interest in the
servicing rights with respect to Related Mortgage Loans while the related Participation Certificate is outstanding. 
 (d) If a Participation
Certificate is purchased by Purchaser after the first day of the month in which the Settlement Date occurs, Purchaser shall also pay to Seller on the date of Delivery to Purchaser of the Security backed by the related Mortgage Loans an amount equal
to the accrued interest on the related Security at the rate specified in the related Takeout Commitment from the first day of such month to and including the day immediately preceding the date Purchaser purchased such Participation Certificate. If a
Participation Certificate is purchased by Purchaser in the month prior to the month in which the Settlement Date occurs, the Completion Fee shall be reduced by an amount equal to all interest payments which accrue on such Participation Certificate
during the period from the date of purchase of such Participation Certificate through and including the last day of the month prior to the month in which such Settlement Date occurs. 

Section 5. Issuance of Securities.  

(a) (i) In connection with the purchase of a Participation Certificate, Seller shall instruct (and, if Seller fails to instruct, then
Agent may instruct) Custodian to deliver to the Applicable Agency, the documents listed in Annex 19-A, 19-B or
19-C of the Custodial Agreement, as applicable, in respect of the Related Mortgage Loans, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Custodial Agreement. Seller shall thereafter promptly deliver to
the Applicable Agency any and all additional documents requested by the Applicable Agency to enable the Applicable Agency to make Delivery to Purchaser of a Security backed by such Mortgage Loans on the related Anticipated Delivery Date. Seller
shall not revoke such instructions to Custodian and shall not revoke its instructions to the Applicable Agency to make Delivery to Purchaser or its designee of a Security backed by such Mortgage Loans. The Delivery to Purchaser of a Security shall
be made in accordance with the following delivery instructions: 
 Fed Book Entry Securities (MBS) 

ABA: [***] 
 Bank of NYC/BCMBS

 (ii) Seller shall notify Purchaser, not later than 12:00 noon, Eastern Time, on the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the applicable Settlement Date (a) of the amount of any change in the principal amount of the Mortgage Loans backing each such Security related to such Settlement Date
and (b) with respect to Freddie Mac Securities, the Freddie Mac mortgage loan pool number applicable to each Security to which such Settlement Date relates. Upon Delivery of such Security to BCI or its designee, Purchaser shall cease to have
any interest under such Participation Certificate and in exchange shall have a 100% ownership interest in the related Security. It is understood and agreed that for so long as Seller is subservicing Related Mortgage Loans, Seller shall retain only
record title to the Mortgages (and not an equitable interest) in all such Mortgage Loans (other than MERS Designated Mortgage Loans) for the sole purpose of subservicing such Mortgage Loans on a servicing-released basis. 

  
 - 26 - 













 (b) If Delivery of a Security backed by the Mortgage Loans evidenced by a Participation
Certificate purchased hereunder has not occurred by 12:00 noon (Eastern Time) on the related Settlement Date as a result of a Security Issuance Failure or otherwise, then subject to the exercise by Purchaser of its rights set forth in
Section 4(c), the Completion Fee relating to such Participation Certificate shall be reduced on each day during the period from the Settlement Date to (but not including) the earlier of (x) the date of Delivery of such
Security, and (y) the date of satisfaction of the obligations of Seller pursuant to the exercise by Purchaser of any remedial election authorized by this Section 5, by an amount equal to the Daily Completion Fee
Reduction Amount. The Completion Fee (reduced by the applicable Daily Completion Fee Reduction Amounts) relating to such Participation Certificate, if any, shall not be payable until the end of the period specified in the preceding sentence. 

(c) If a breach by Seller of this Agreement results in any Related Mortgage Loan being a Defective Mortgage Loan on the Purchase Date of the
related Participation Certificate to Purchaser, Agent in its sole discretion may require that Seller, upon receipt of notice from Purchaser or Agent of its exercise of such right, to either (x) immediately repurchase Purchaser’s beneficial
ownership interest in such Defective Mortgage Loan by remitting to Purchaser the allocable amount paid by Purchaser for such beneficial interest plus accrued interest at the rate specified in the related Mortgage Note on the principal amount thereof
from the date of Purchaser’s purchase of such Participation Certificate to the date of such repurchase together with any Losses suffered by Purchaser relating to such repurchase (including, without limitation, any Losses incurred by Purchaser
resulting from adjustments to the trade required by the Takeout Investor), or (y) deliver to Custodian a Mortgage Loan eligible to back such Security in exchange for such Defective Mortgage Loan, which newly delivered Mortgage Loan shall be in
all respects acceptable to Agent in Agent’s reasonable discretion, and such newly delivered Mortgage Loan will thereupon become one of the Related Mortgage Loans relating to the Participation Certificate. If the aggregate principal balance of
any Mortgage Loans that are accepted by Purchaser pursuant to clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence is less than the aggregate principal balance of any Defective Mortgage Loan that is being replaced by such Mortgage Loan, Seller
shall remit with such Mortgage Loan to Purchaser an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate principal balance of the new Mortgage Loan accepted by Purchaser and the aggregate principal balance of the Defective Mortgage Loan being
replaced thereby plus accrued interest on such Defective Mortgage Loan at the rate specified in the related Mortgage Note on the principal amount thereof from the Purchase Date of Purchaser’s purchase of such Participation Certificate to the
date of substitution. 
 (d) If any Related Mortgage Loan becomes thirty (30) days or more Delinquent with respect to the first
scheduled monthly payment due Purchaser after the date on which such Related Mortgage Loan was originated and prior to the Anticipated Delivery Date, Seller shall repurchase the beneficial interest in such Related Mortgage Loan as if it were a
Defective Mortgage Loan upon direction by Agent given no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Purchase Date. 
 (e) No
exercise by Purchaser or Agent of their respective rights under this Section 5 shall relieve Seller of responsibility or liability for any breach of this Agreement.

 Section 6. Servicing of the Mortgage Loans; Servicer Termination; Backup
Servicer. 
 (a) Upon payment of the Initial Purchase Price Installment with respect to a Participation Certificate and so long as
such Participation Certificate remains outstanding (subject to Section 4), Purchaser shall own a 100% undivided beneficial interest in the servicing rights related to the Related Mortgage Loans, including the Mortgage File
related to such Related Mortgage Loans. Seller and Purchaser each agrees and acknowledges that a 100% undivided beneficial interest in Related Mortgage Loans shall be sold to Purchaser on a servicing released basis, and that Purchaser is engaging
and hereby does engage Seller (or a subservicer designated by Seller) to provide subservicing of each Related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of Purchaser (and any other registered holder of the related Participation Certificate) for each transaction
for a term of thirty (30) days from the related Purchase Date (subject to the termination rights provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 6(f) of this Agreement), which term may be extended in
writing by Purchaser, in its sole discretion, for additional thirty (30) day periods (each, a “Servicing Term”). If such Servicing Term is not extended by Purchaser or if Purchaser has terminated Seller as a result of a
Servicing Termination Event, Seller shall transfer such servicing to Purchaser or its designee at no cost or expense to Purchaser as provided in Section 6(g) of this Agreement. Seller shall hold or cause to be held all
Escrow Payments collected with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans in segregated accounts for the sole benefit of the Mortgagors and shall apply the same for the purposes for which such funds were collected. If Seller should discover that, for any
reason whatsoever, it has failed to perform fully its servicing obligations in any material respect with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that as of the Effective
Date, Seller may delegate its obligations hereunder to subservice any or all of the Related Mortgage Loans to Cenlar FSB. 
 For so long as
a Participation Certificate is outstanding, Seller shall neither assign, encumber or pledge its right to servicing compensation hereunder or its obligation to subservice the Related Mortgage Loans in whole or in part, nor delegate its rights or
duties under this Agreement (other than to a subservicer (including, without limitation, Cenlar FSB)) without the prior written consent of Agent, the granting of which consent shall be in the sole discretion of Agent. Seller hereby acknowledges and
agrees that (i) Purchaser is entering into this Agreement in reliance upon Seller’s representations as to the adequacy of its financial standing, servicing facilities, personnel, records, procedures, reputation and integrity, and the
continuance thereof; and (ii) Seller’s engagement hereunder to provide mortgage servicing for the benefit of Purchaser (and any other registered holder of the Participation Certificate) is intended by the parties to be a “personal
service contract” and Seller is hereunder intended by the parties to be an “independent contractor”. 
 (b) (i) Seller
(or a subservicer designated by Seller (including, without limitation, Cenlar FSB)) shall subservice and administer the Related Mortgage Loans relating to a Participation Certificate on behalf of Purchaser in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices. Seller shall have no right to modify or alter the terms of any Related Mortgage Loan or consent to the modification or alteration of the terms of any Related Mortgage Loan except in Strict Compliance with the related Agency Program.
Seller (or a subservicer designated by Seller (including, without limitation, Cenlar FSB)) shall at all times maintain accurate and complete records of its servicing of the Related Mortgage Loans, and Agent may, at any time during


  
 - 28 - 













 
Seller’s business hours on reasonable notice, examine and make copies of such Servicing Records. Seller agrees that Purchaser is the 100% beneficial owner of all Servicing Records relating
to the Related Mortgage Loans. Seller covenants to hold or cause any designated subservicer to hold such Servicing Records for the benefit of Purchaser and to safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Agent or its designee
(including the Custodian) at Agent’s request or otherwise as required by operation of this Section 6.  

(ii) If Delivery of a Security is not made to Purchaser on or before the Anticipated Delivery Date, Seller (or a subservicer
designated by Seller (including, without limitation, Cenlar FSB)) shall deliver to Purchaser, upon reasonable request by Purchaser, reports regarding the status of those Related Mortgage Loans for which a Security has not yet been issued, which
reports shall include, but shall not be limited to, a description of those Related Mortgage Loans thirty (30) days or more Delinquent, and such other circumstances with respect to any Related Mortgage Loans (whether or not such Related Mortgage
Loans are included in the foregoing list) that could materially adversely affect any of such Related Mortgage Loans, Purchaser’s beneficial interest in such Related Mortgage Loans or the collateral securing any of such Related Mortgage Loans.
Seller (or a subservicer designated by Seller (including, without limitation, Cenlar FSB)) shall deliver such a report to Purchaser upon such request of Purchaser until (i) Delivery of the related Security to Purchaser or (ii) the exercise
by Purchaser of any remedial election pursuant to Section 5. In no event shall Seller delegate any of its subservicing duties hereunder (other than to Cenlar FSB) to any other Person without first obtaining the prior
written consent of Purchaser. 
 (iii) Upon the request of Purchaser or Agent from time to time, Seller shall furnish to
Purchaser and Agent reports in form and scope satisfactory to Agent, setting forth (i) data regarding the performance of the individual Related Mortgage Loans, (ii) a summary report of all Related Mortgage Loans serviced by the Seller and
originated pursuant to an Agency Guide, HUD and/or FHA guidelines (on a portfolio basis), in each case, for the immediately preceding month, including, without limitation, all collections, delinquencies, defaults, defects, claim rates, losses and
recoveries, and (iii) any other information reasonably requested by Purchaser or Agent. 
 (c) Seller, as servicer, shall establish and
maintain the “Custodial Account” with Bank entitled “loanDepot.com, LLC Custodial Account, for the benefit of Barclays Bank PLC and its assignees.” The Custodial Account shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the
Custodial Account Control Agreement. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited into such account in the form received within two (2) Business Days of receipt
thereof, with any necessary endorsements, all collections received in respect of the Related Mortgage Loans relating to Participation Certificates purchased by Purchaser hereunder. 

(d) Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, amounts deposited in the Custodial Account with respect to any Related Mortgage
Loan relating to Participation Certificates purchased by Purchaser hereunder shall be held in trust for the benefit of Purchaser and shall be released only as follows: 

  
 - 29 - 













 (i) Except as otherwise provided in
Section 6(d)(ii), upon either (x) the Settlement Date (unless there is a Securities Issuance Failure) or (y) if earlier, on the date required by the applicable Agency Guide, amounts deposited in the Custodial
Account shall be released to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts relating to Participation Certificates purchased by Purchaser hereunder and deposited in the Custodial Account shall be released to Seller upon the Settlement Date of
the related Security (unless there is a Securities Issuance Failure) only if, and to the extent that, the amounts due and payable to Purchaser hereunder have been set-off against the Purchase Price for the
Related Participation Certificate or the Completion Fee. The amounts paid to Seller (if any) pursuant to this Section 6(d)(i) shall constitute Seller’s sole compensation for subservicing the Related Mortgage Loans as
provided in this Section 6. 
 (ii) If Successor Servicer takes delivery of such Mortgage Loans
either under the circumstances set forth in Section 6(f) or otherwise, all amounts deposited in the Custodial Account shall be paid to Purchaser promptly upon such delivery. 

(iii) If a Security is not issued solely as a result of a Security Issuance Failure during the month in which the related
Settlement Date occurs, in any period thereafter during which Seller remains as subservicer, all amounts deposited in the Custodial Account shall be released only in accordance with the Agent’s written instructions. 

(e) Purchaser (or any other registered holder of the Related Participation Certificate) shall be entitled to effect termination of
Seller’s subservicing rights and obligations respecting the affected Related Mortgage Loans in the event any of the following circumstances or events (“Servicing Termination Events”) occur and are continuing: 

(i) any failure by Seller to remit to Purchaser (or other registered holder of the Participation Certificate) when due any
payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement or such Participation Certificate and such failure is not cured within three (3) Business Days of the earlier of (x) Seller’s receipt of written notice from Purchaser of
such breach or (y) the date on which Seller obtains notice or knowledge of the facts giving rise to such breach; or 

(ii) failure by Seller duly to observe, perform or comply with any material term, condition, covenant or agreement set forth in
this Agreement or in the Custodial Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of five (5) Business Days of the earlier of (x) Seller’s receipt of written notice from Purchaser, Agent or Custodian of such breach or (y) the
date on which Seller obtains notice or knowledge of the facts giving rise to such breach; or 
 (iii) any representation or
warranty made by Seller (or any of Seller’s officers) in the Program Documents, including, but not limited to, all documents related to this Agreement, shall have been incorrect or untrue in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed
by the terms thereof to have been incorrect or untrue in any material respect when made or repeated (other than the representations or warranties in Section 9(b) and 9(c) related to the representations and warranties
in Exhibit B of the Master Repurchase Agreement); or 

  
 - 30 - 













 (iv) an Event of Insolvency with respect to Seller or any of its Affiliates;
or 
 (v) Seller ceases to meet the qualifications to maintain all requisite Approvals, such Approvals are revoked or such
Approvals are materially modified; or 
 (vi) [Reserved]; or 

(vii) Seller fails to operate or conduct its business operations or any material portion thereof in the ordinary course; or

 (viii) Seller ceases to be a member of MERS in good standing and has not been reinstated within fifteen (15) calendar
days following receipt of notice or knowledge thereof; or 
 (ix) an Event of Default (as defined in the Other Agreement)
shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable cure period under any Other Agreement to which Seller or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries is a party; or 

(x) [Reserved]; or 

(xi) in the event of a Security Issuance Failure, which continues unremedied for a period of two (2) Business Days; or

 (xii) a Change in Control of Seller shall have occurred that has not been approved by Agent. 

(f) Purchaser, in its sole discretion, may terminate Seller’s rights and obligations as subservicer of the affected Related Mortgage
Loans and require Seller to deliver the related Servicing Records to Purchaser or its designee upon the occurrence of (i) a Servicing Termination Event or (ii) Seller’s failure to comply with any of its obligations set forth in
Section 5(c) or (d), by delivering written notice to Seller requiring such termination. Such termination shall be effective upon Seller’s receipt of such written notice; provided, that Seller’s
subservicing rights shall be terminated immediately upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 6(e)(iv), regardless of whether notice of such event shall have been given to or by Purchaser or Seller. Upon any
such termination, all authority and power of Seller respecting its rights to subservice and duties under this Agreement relating thereto, shall pass to and be vested in the Successor Servicer appointed by Purchaser and Purchaser is hereby authorized
and empowered to transfer such rights to subservice the Related Mortgage Loans for such price and on such terms and conditions as Purchaser shall reasonably determine; provided, that to the extent the Applicable Agency proceeds to
issue a Security with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans, Purchaser shall convey the servicing rights and the rights to subservice such Related Mortgage Loans in accordance with such Applicable Agency’s instructions. Seller shall promptly
take such actions and furnish to Purchaser such documents that Purchaser deems necessary or appropriate to enable Purchaser to obtain a Security backed by such Related Mortgage Loans or 

  
 - 31 - 













 
to enforce such Related Mortgage Loans, as appropriate, and shall perform all acts and take all actions so that the Related Mortgage Loans and all files and documents relating to such Related
Mortgage Loans held by Seller, together with all escrow amounts relating to such Related Mortgage Loans, are delivered to Successor Servicer, including but not limited to preparing, executing and delivering to the Successor Servicer any and all
documents and other instruments, placing in the Successor Servicer’s possession all Servicing Records pertaining to such Related Mortgage Loans and doing or causing to be done, all at Seller’s sole expense. To the extent that the approval
of the Applicable Agency is required for any such sale or transfer, Seller shall fully cooperate with Purchaser to obtain such approval. All amounts paid by any purchaser of such rights to service or subservice the Related Mortgage Loans shall be
the property of Purchaser. The subservicing rights required to be delivered to Successor Servicer in accordance with this Section 6(f) shall be delivered free of any servicing rights in favor of Seller or any third party
(other than Purchaser) and free of any title, interest, lien, encumbrance or claim of any kind of Seller other than record title to the Mortgages relating to the Related Mortgage Loans. No exercise by Purchaser of its rights under this
Section 6(f) shall relieve Seller of responsibility or liability for any breach of this Agreement. 
 (g) With
respect to the Servicing Files and the physical and contractual servicing of each Mortgage Loan to the extent in the possession of Seller, Seller shall deliver such Servicing Files and the physical and contractual servicing to Purchaser or its
designee upon the expiration of the Servicing Term (unless such Servicing Term is renewed by Purchaser) or the termination of the Seller as subservicer pursuant to this Section 6. Seller’s transfer of the servicing
rights, Servicing Files and the physical and contractual servicing under this Section 6(g) shall be in accordance with customary standards in the industry including the transfer of the gross amount of all escrows held for
the related Mortgagors (without reduction for unreimbursed advances or “negative escrows”). 
 (h) The Agent, in its sole
discretion, may appoint a backup servicer at any time during the term of this Agreement. In such event, Seller shall commence monthly delivery to such backup servicer of the servicing information required to be delivered to Purchaser pursuant to
Section 6(b)(ii) and any other information reasonably requested by backup servicer, all in a format that is reasonably acceptable to such backup servicer. Solely in the event that such backup servicer is appointed by Agent
as a result of the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Seller shall pay all costs and expenses of such backup servicer, including, but not limited to all fees of such backup servicer in connection with the processing of such
information and the maintenance of a servicing file with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans. Seller shall cooperate fully with such backup servicer in the event of a transfer of servicing hereunder and will provide such backup servicer with all
documents and information necessary for such backup servicer to assume the servicing of the Related Mortgage Loans. 
 Section 7.
Transfers of Participation Certificates and Securities by Purchaser. Purchaser may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Seller, sell, assign or otherwise transfer all of its right, title and interest or grant a security interest
in any Participation Certificate, any Mortgage Note, Mortgage and Assignment of Mortgage related to such Participation Certificate and the related servicing rights, each Security in respect thereof of which Delivery is made to Purchaser and all
rights of Purchaser under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the Custodial Account) in respect of such Participation Certificate, 

  
 - 32 - 













 
any such Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Mortgage and such Security, to any person (an “Assignee”), all at no cost to Seller, subject only to an obligation on the part of
the Assignee to deliver each such Security to the Takeout Investor or to Purchaser to permit Purchaser or its designee to make delivery thereof to the Takeout Investor. In the event Purchaser engages in an assignment of a Participation Certificate
and the related servicing rights as provided in this Section 7, (i) the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Purchaser shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 

Without limitation of the foregoing, an assignment of a Participation Certificate and the related servicing rights to an Assignee, as
described in this Section 7, shall be effective upon delivery of the Participation Certificate to the Assignee or its designee, together with a duly executed Assignment substantially in the form of
Exhibit E (with a copy to Seller). 
 Section 8. Record Title to Mortgage Loans; Intent of Parties;
Security Interest. 
 (a) From and after the issuance and delivery of the Related Participation Certificate, and subject to the remedies
of Purchaser in Section 5, Seller (or its designated subservicer) as subservicer shall remain the last named payee or endorsee of each Mortgage Note related to a Related Mortgage Loan and the mortgagee or assignee of record
of each Mortgage related to a Related Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any MERS Designated Mortgage Loan) and shall retain only record title to the Mortgages (and not an equitable interest) in the Related Mortgage Loan, all for the benefit of
Purchaser for the sole purpose of facilitating the subservicing of such Related Mortgage Loan and the issuance of a Security backed by such Related Mortgage Loan. Where Seller has appointed Freddie Mac as Custodian, the parties hereto acknowledge
that the Mortgage Notes related to a Participation Certificate acquired hereunder have been deposited with Freddie Mac to facilitate the issuance of Freddie Mac Securities with respect thereto and that prior to such issuance Freddie Mac is holding
such Mortgage Notes as Custodian for Purchaser. 
 (b) Seller shall maintain a complete set of books and records for each Related Mortgage
Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the beneficial ownership interest in each Related Mortgage Loan of the holder of the Related Participation Certificate. Seller shall notify MERS of the beneficial ownership interest of Purchaser in each
MERS Designated Mortgage Loan through the MORNET system or any other comparable system acceptable to MERS. 
 (c) Purchaser and Seller
confirm that the transactions contemplated herein are intended to be sales of the Participation Certificates by Seller to Purchaser rather than borrowings secured by the Participation Certificates. In the event, for any reason, any transaction is
construed by any court or regulatory authority as a borrowing rather than as a sale, Seller and Purchaser intend that Purchaser or its Assignee, as the case may be, shall have a perfected first priority security interest in the Participation
Certificates, and all of Seller’s interest in all of the servicing rights with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans, the Custodial Account and all amounts on deposit therein, the Related Mortgage Loans subject to each Participation
Certificate, all documents, records (including Servicing Records), instruments and data evidencing the Related Mortgage Loans and the servicing thereof, the Securities to be issued as contemplated 

  
 - 33 - 













 
hereunder, all principal and interest collected thereon and all proceeds thereof, the Takeout Commitments and the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing (collectively, the
“Collateral”), free and clear of adverse claims. In furtherance thereof, Seller hereby grants to Purchaser (as defined in the introductory paragraph of this Agreement) a first priority security interest in and lien upon the
Collateral, free and clear of adverse claims. In such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, the Custodian shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of perfection of the security interest herein granted to
Purchaser, and Purchaser or each such Assignee shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law. 
 Upon request of
Purchaser, Seller shall prepare and deliver to MERS an Assignment of Mortgage from MERS to Purchaser or its designee. Upon due execution by MERS, Seller shall cause such Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded in the public land records upon request
of Purchaser. 
 Section 9. Representations and Warranties. 

(a) Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser and Agent as of the date hereof and with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans as of the
date of each issuance and delivery of a Participation Certificate that: 
 (i) Seller will not be rendered insolvent by any
transaction contemplated by this Agreement and, after giving effect to each such transaction, Seller will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business. Seller does not intend to incur, nor believes
that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. Seller is not contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator,
conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of Seller or any of its assets; 
 (ii) The consideration received by
Seller upon the sale of each Participation Certificate, taken as a whole, will constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans evidenced by that Participation Certificate;

 (iii) Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, and it has qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which it is legally required to do so. Seller has the power and authority under its certificate of formation, operating agreement and applicable law to enter into this
Agreement and the Custodial Agreement and to perform all acts contemplated hereby and thereby or in connection herewith and therewith; this Agreement, the Custodial Agreement, the Pricing Side Letter, the Custodial Account Control Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not require any additional approvals or consents or other action by, or any notice to or filing with, any Person other than any that have
heretofore been obtained, given or made; 

  
 - 34 - 













 (iv) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the Program Documents are in the ordinary course of business of Seller and will not conflict with, result in the breach of or violate any provision of the certificate of formation or operating agreement of Seller or result in the breach of any
provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any material agreement, indenture, loan or credit agreement or other instrument to which Seller, the Related Mortgage Loans or any of
Seller’s Property is or may be subject to, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which Seller, the Related Mortgage Loans or Seller’s Property is or may be subject. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein or therein will not violate any policy, regulation or guideline of the FHA or VA or result in the voiding or reduction of the FHA insurance, VA guarantee or any
other insurance or guarantee in respect of any Mortgage Loan, or otherwise render such Mortgage Loans, individually or in the aggregate, ineligible (pursuant to the applicable Agency Guide or otherwise) for inclusion in a pool of mortgages
supporting a Security, and such FHA insurance or VA guarantee is in full force and effect or shall be in full force and effect as required by the applicable Agency Guide; 

(v) No practice, procedure or policy employed by Seller in the conduct of its businesses violates any law, regulation,
judgment, agreement, regulatory consent, order or decree applicable to it which, if enforced, would result in a Material Adverse Effect;

Purchase and Sale Agreement or under any other warehouse, repurchase, or mortgage servicing rights facility or related trade line entered into between Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand), whether or
not such obligations are then due. The exercise of any such right of set-off shall be without prejudice to Purchaser’s or its Affiliate’s right to recover any deficiency. Purchaser agrees to promptly
notify Seller after any such set-off and application made by Purchaser; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application.

by Purchaser of the Applicable Agency) resulting from, relating to or otherwise arising in connection with the breach by Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement (including, without limitation, any failure to perform
servicing obligations). Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the covenants and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 Section 14. Exclusive Benefit of Parties; Assignment. This Agreement is for the exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and

portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Documents with a counterparty of Purchaser’s or Agent’s choice. Purchaser or Agent shall notify Seller of any such assignment and participation and shall maintain,
for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees and participants and a copy of any executed assignment and acceptance by Purchaser or Agent and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or
portion of such rights and obligations assigned. The Seller agrees that, for any such permitted assignment, Seller will cooperate with the prompt execution and delivery of documents reasonably necessary for such assignment process to the extent that
Seller incurs no cost or expense that is not paid by the Purchaser or Agent, as applicable. Upon such assignment, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Document to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the
Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Purchaser or Agent hereunder, and (b) Purchaser or Agent shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by it to either
(i) an Affiliate of Purchaser or Agent which assumes the obligations of Purchaser or Agent hereunder or (ii) to another Person which assumes the obligations of Purchaser or Agent hereunder, be released from their obligations hereunder
accruing thereafter and under the Program Documents.

pledgee any document or other information delivered to Purchaser by Seller subject to the confidentiality restrictions contained in Section 27 hereof; accordingly, such prospective assignee, participant or pledgee shall be
required to agree to confidentiality provisions similar to those set forth in Section 27.

contract” as that term is defined in the FDIA. Seller and Purchaser further recognize that the beneficial interest in the Related Mortgage Loans evidenced by a Participation Certificate shall constitute an “interest in a mortgage
loan” as that term is used in Section and 741(7)(A)(i) of Bankruptcy Code.

the right to liquidate, terminate and accelerate, or exercise any other remedies permitted upon the occurrence of any Servicing Termination Event, and that such liquidation, termination and acceleration rights constitute contractual rights to

“qualified financial contract” as described Section 1821(e)(8)(A)(i) of the FDIA.

Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual
payment obligation,” respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA.

Side Letter to the Seller’s other Creditors (to the extent required by such other Creditors). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as 

  
 - 46 - 













 
reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws, each party (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each party) may disclose to any and all persons, without
limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For this purpose, tax
treatment and tax structure shall not include (i) the identity of any existing or future party (or any Affiliate of such party) to this Agreement or (ii) any specific pricing information or other commercial terms, including the amount of
any fees, expenses, rates or payments arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 Purchaser and Agent
each agree that it will not purchase, sell or trade any class of security of the Seller on the basis of any material nonpublic information that is included in the Confidential Terms in violation of U.S. securities laws. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller, Purchaser and Agent 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 Related Mortgage Loans, the Participation Certificates and any applicable terms of this Agreement, including
information relating to any Mortgage Loan that is not related to a Participation Certificate purchased hereunder and information relating to any other Mortgage Loans of Seller that is delivered to Purchaser or Agent by another lender under an
intercreditor agreement or other agreement (the “Confidential Information”). Seller, Purchaser and Agent understand 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 “GLB Act”), and each agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state
privacy laws. Seller, Purchaser and Agent shall each 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 GLB Act) of the Mortgagors, (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, Purchaser and Agent shall notify the other party immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of
the nonpublic personal information of any Mortgagor by providing notice directly to the other party. 
 Section 28. Contractual
Recognition of Bail-In. 
 Seller acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement
or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding with us, any of our liabilities, as the Bank of England (or any successor resolution authority) may determine, arising under or in connection with this Agreement may be subject to Bail-In Action and Seller accepts to be bound by the effect of: 
 (a) any
Bail-In Action in relation to such liability, including (without limitation): 

  
 - 47 - 













 (i) a reduction, in full or in part, of any amount due in respect of any such liability;

 (ii) a conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or
conferred on, Seller; and 
 (iii) a cancellation of any such liability; and 

(b) a variation of any term of this Agreement to the extent necessary to give effect to Bail-In Action
in relation to any such liability. 
 Section 29. USA Patriot Act; OFAC and Anti-Terrorism. 

Each of Purchaser and Agent hereby notifies the Seller that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization
Act, Title III of Pub. L. 109-177 (signed into law March 9, 2009) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies Seller, which information includes
the name and address of Seller and other information that will allow Purchaser and Agent, as applicable, to identify the Seller in accordance with the Act. Accordingly, the Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser and Agent, and shall on
and as of the Purchase Date for any Transaction and on and as of each date thereafter through and including the related Settlement Date be deemed to represent and warrant to Purchaser and Agent that: 

(a) (i) Neither the Seller nor the Parent Company nor, to the Seller’s actual knowledge, any director, officer, or
employee of the Seller or any of its subsidiaries, or any originator of Collateral, is named on the list of Specifically Designated Nationals maintained by OFAC or any similar list issued by OFAC (collectively, the “OFAC Lists”) or
is located, organized, or resident in a country or territory that is, or whose government is, the target of sanctions imposed by OFAC; and (ii) no Person on the OFAC Lists owns, directly or indirectly, or otherwise controls, the Seller or the
Parent Company. 
 (b) (i) Seller will not knowingly conduct business with or engage in any transaction with any Obligor
that the Seller or any originator of Collateral knows, after reasonable due diligence, that, (x) is named on any of the OFAC Lists or is located, organized, or resident in a country or territory that is, or whose government currently is, the
target of countrywide sanctions imposed by OFAC; (y) is owned, directly or indirectly, or otherwise controlled, by a Person named on any OFAC List; (ii) if the Seller obtains actual knowledge, after reasonable due diligence, that any
Obligor is named on any of the OFAC Lists or that any Person named on an OFAC List owns, directly or indirectly, or otherwise controls the Obligor or the Seller, as applicable, Seller will give prompt written notice to Purchaser and Agent of such
fact or facts; and (iii) the Seller will (x) comply at all times with the requirements of the Economic and Trade Sanctions and Anti-Terrorism Laws applicable to any transactions, dealings or other actions relating to this Agreement, except
to the extent such non-compliance does not result in a violation of applicable law by any of Purchaser or Agent and (y) will, upon Purchaser’s or Agent’s reasonable request from time to time
during the term of this Agreement, deliver a certification confirming its compliance with the covenants set forth in this Section 29.

 Section 30. Contractual Recognition of UK Stay In Resolution. 

(a) Where a resolution measure is taken in relation to any BRRD undertaking or any member of the same group as that BRRD undertaking and that
BRRD undertaking or any member of the same group as that BRRD undertaking is a party to this Agreement (any such party to this Agreement being an “Affected Party”), each other party to this Agreement agrees that it shall only be
entitled to exercise any termination right under this Agreement against the Affected Party to the extent that it would be entitled to do so under the Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of any part of the United
Kingdom. 
 (b) For the purpose of this Section 30 “resolution measure” means a ‘crisis prevention
measure’, ‘crisis management measure’ or ‘recognised third-country resolution action’, each with the meaning given in the “PRA Rulebook: CRR Firms and Non-Authorised Persons: Stay
in Resolution Instrument 2015”, as may be amended from time to time (the “PRA Contractual Stay Rules”), provided, however, that ‘crisis prevention measure’ shall be interpreted in the manner outlined in Rule 2.3 of
the PRA Contractual Stay Rules ; “BRRD undertaking”, “group”, “Special Resolution Regime” and “termination right” have the respective meanings given in the PRA Contractual Stay Rules. 

Section 31. Notice Regarding Client Money Rules. 

(a) The Purchaser, as a CRD credit institution (as such term is defined in the rules of the FCA), holds all money received and held by it
hereunder as banker and not as trustee. Accordingly, money that is received and held by Purchaser from Seller will not be held in accordance with the provisions of the FCA’s Client Asset Sourcebook relating to client money (the “Client
Money Rules”) and will not be subject to the statutory trust provided for under the Client Money Rules. 
 (b) In particular, the
Purchaser shall not segregate money received by it from Seller from the Purchaser money and the Purchaser shall not be liable to account to Seller for any profits made by the Purchaser use as banker of such cash and upon failure of the Purchaser,
the client money distribution rules within the Client Asset Sourcebook (the “Client Money Distribution Rules”) will not apply to these sums and so Seller will not be entitled to share in any distribution under the Client Money
Distribution Rules. 
 Section 32. Effect of Benchmark Transition Event. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Program Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an
Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Agent and the Seller may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will
become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Agent has posted such proposed amendment to the Purchaser and the Seller. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election
will become effective on the date that the Purchaser has delivered to the Agent written notice that the Purchaser accepts such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section titled “Effect of Benchmark
Transition Event” will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. 

  
 - 49 - 













 (b) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have
the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Program Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become
effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. 
 (c) The Agent will promptly notify the Seller and
the Purchaser of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date,
(ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. 

(d) Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or Purchaser pursuant to this Section titled “Effect of
Benchmark Transition Event,” including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or
refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this
Section titled “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.” 
 (e) Upon the Seller’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a
Benchmark Unavailability Period and until such Benchmark Unavailability Period ends, the Seller shall apply an alternate benchmark rate (which may be a SOFR-Based Rate) that has been mutually agreed upon by the Agent and the Seller.
