MORTGAGE

This is a MORTGAGE LOAN
PARTICIPATION PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of September 14, 2015, among Barclays Bank
PLC, as administrative agent (“Agent”) and purchaser (“Purchaser”), PennyMac Loan Services,
LLC as servicer (“Servicer”) and PennyMac Corp., 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 single-family residential Mortgage Loans eligible in the aggregate to back Securities, and in and to 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
(i) shall, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, purchase such Participation Certificates with an aggregate
Purchase Price not to exceed the Committed Amount, and (ii) may, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent,
purchase such Participation Certificates with an aggregate Purchase Price not to exceed the Uncommitted Amount, in each case 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 or 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 the Applicable Agency to issue and/or 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 Servicer to subservice the Related Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Purchaser, it being
acknowledged that the continued effectiveness of Seller’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.

useful in servicing such 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 Servicer 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 forty-five (45) 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 an additional forty-five (45) day period (each,
a “Servicing Term”). If such Servicing Term is not extended by Purchaser or if Purchaser has terminated Servicer
as a result of a Servicing Termination Event, Servicer 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. Servicer shall hold or cause to be held all Escrow Payments
collected with respect to the Mortgage Loans in segregated accounts for the sole benefit of the Mortgagor and shall apply the same
for the purposes for which such funds were collected. If Servicer should discover that, for any reason whatsoever, it has failed
to perform fully its servicing obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans, Servicer shall promptly notify Purchaser.

For so long as a Participation
Certificate is outstanding, Servicer shall neither assign, encumber or pledge its obligation to subservice the Related Mortgage
Loans in whole or in part, nor delegate its rights or duties under this Agreement (to other than a subservicer) without the prior
written consent of Agent, the granting of which consent shall be in the sole discretion of Agent. Servicer hereby acknowledges
and agrees that (i) Purchaser is entering into this Agreement in reliance upon Servicer’s representations as to the adequacy
of its financial standing, servicing facilities, personnel, records, procedures, reputation and integrity, and the continuance
thereof; and (ii) Servicer’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 Servicer is hereunder intended by the parties to be an “independent contractor.”


 


(b)         (i)
Servicer shall subservice and administer the Related Mortgage Loans relating to a Participation Certificate on behalf of Purchaser
in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Servicer 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. Servicer shall at all times maintain accurate and complete records of its servicing of the Related Mortgage
Loans, and Agent may, at any time during Servicer’s business hours on reasonable notice, examine and make copies of such
Servicing Records. Servicer agrees that Purchaser is the 100% beneficial owner of all Servicing Records relating to the Related
Mortgage Loans. Servicer covenants 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, Servicer shall deliver to Purchaser
monthly 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 in default for more than thirty (30)
days, 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. Servicer shall deliver such
a report to Purchaser every thirty (30) days 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 Servicer delegate any of its subservicing duties
hereunder to any other Person without first obtaining the prior written consent of Purchaser.


 






     23


     

    

 


(iii)Within
three (3) Business Days after the end of each calendar month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business
Day), and as requested by Purchaser or Agent from time to time, Servicer shall furnish to Purchaser and Agent reports in form and
scope satisfactory to Agent, setting forth (i) data regarding the performance of the individual Mortgage Loans and (ii) any other
information reasonably requested by Purchaser or Agent.


 


(c)Servicer,
shall establish and maintain a separate custodial account (the “Custodial Account”) with Bank entitled “PennyMac
Loan Services, LLC as servicer for PennyMac Corp., for the benefit of Barclays Bank PLC and its assignees, Custodial Account”
and shall deposit into such account in the form received within two (2) Business Days’ receipt thereof, with any necessary
endorsements, all collections received in respect of the Related Mortgage Loans relating to Participation Certificates purchased
by Purchaser hereunder. The Custodial Account shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Custodial Account Control Agreement.


 


(d)Amounts
deposited in the Custodial Account with respect to any Related Mortgage Loan relating to Participation Certificates purchased by
Purchaser hereunder shall be held for the benefit of Purchaser and shall be released only in accordance with Agent’s written
instructions, including as follows:


 


(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, Agent shall cause amounts deposited in the Custodial Account
to 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 at Agent’s direction 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. Seller shall be solely responsible for paying compensation to Servicer for its obligations as Servicer.


 


(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.


 


(e)Purchaser
(or any other registered holder of the Related Participation Certificate) shall be entitled to effect termination of Servicer’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:

(f)Purchaser,
in its sole discretion, may terminate Servicer’s rights and obligations as subservicer of the affected Related Mortgage Loans
and require Servicer to deliver the related Servicing Records to Purchaser or its designee upon the occurrence of (i) a Servicing
Termination Event, (ii) Seller’s failure to comply with any of its obligations set forth in Section 5(c) or 5(d) or (iii)
Seller’s breach of Section 9(a)(xii) or 9(b), by delivering written notice to Seller requiring such termination. Such termination
shall be effective upon Seller’s or Servicer’s receipt of such written notice; provided, that Servicer’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 Servicer 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 Mortgage Loans in accordance with such Applicable Agency’s
instructions. Servicer 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 Mortgage Loans or to enforce such 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
Mortgage Loans held by Servicer, together with all escrow amounts relating to such 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 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 or Servicer, 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 Servicer or any third party (other than Purchaser) and free of any title, interest, lien, encumbrance
or claim of any kind of Seller or Servicer 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 or Servicer of responsibility or liability
for any breach of this Agreement.


 






     26


     

    

 


(g)With
respect to the Servicing Files and the physical and contractual servicing of each Mortgage Loan to the extent in the possession
of Servicer, Servicer 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 Servicer
as subservicer pursuant to this Section 6. Servicer’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, Servicer
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. Seller or Servicer 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. Servicer 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 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, any Mortgage Note,
Mortgage, Assignment of Mortgage and such Security, to any person (an “Assignee”), 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. Assignment by Purchaser of a Participation Certificate and the related servicing
rights as provided in this Section 7 will not release Purchaser from its obligations otherwise under this Agreement.


 






     27


     

    

 


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 as subservicer shall remain the last named payee or endorsee of each Mortgage Note and the mortgagee or assignee of record
of each Mortgage (except with respect to any MERS 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 Mortgage Loan and the issuance of a Security backed by such Mortgage Loan. Where Seller has appointed Freddie Mac as Custodian,
the parties hereto acknowledge that the Mortgage Notes 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 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 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 such case, Seller shall be deemed to have hereby granted to Purchaser or its Assignee, as the case may be, 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.


 






     28


     

    

 


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.

if any, of this Agreement or any other Program Document, other than any that have heretofore been obtained, given or made;

Purchaser, Purchaser will be the sole owner thereof, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance other than those arising
under this Agreement;


 


(ix)Neither
this Agreement nor any representations and warranties or information relating to Seller that Seller has delivered or caused to
be delivered to Purchaser, including, but not limited to, all documents related to this Agreement, the Custodial Agreement or Seller’s
financial statements, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements made therein or herein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Since the furnishing
of such documents or information, there has been no change, nor any development or event involving a prospective change that would
render any of such documents or information untrue or misleading in any material respect;


 






     30


     

    

 


(x)There
is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, or before or by any court, public board or body
pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Seller (or, to Seller’s knowledge, any basis therefor)
wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any
other Program Document to be executed by Seller or any agreement or instrument to which Seller is a party and which is used or
contemplated for use in the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, would adversely affect the proceedings of Seller
in connection herewith or would or could materially and adversely affect Seller’s ability to carry out its obligations hereunder;

non-compliance which the Agent reasonably determines may entitle an Applicable Agency to terminate, suspend, sanction or levy penalties
against the Seller, or a notice from any Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA or VA indicating any adverse fact or circumstance in respect
of Seller which the Agent reasonably determines may entitle such Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA or VA, as the case may be, to revoke
any Approval or otherwise terminate, suspend Seller as an Applicable Agency approved issuer or servicer, or with respect to which
such adverse fact or circumstance has caused any Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA or VA, as the case may be, to terminate Seller, without
any subsequent rescission thereof in such notice.

Section
22.Securities Contract; Netting Agreement.

is defined in the FDIA. Seller and Purchaser further recognize that the beneficial interest in the Related Mortgage Loans evidenced

741(7)(A)(i) of Bankruptcy Code.

is understood that the Purchaser shall have 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

and a “master netting agreement” as described in Section 555 and Section 561 of the Bankruptcy Code, respectively,
and a “qualified financial contract” as described Section 1821(e)(8)(A)(i) of the FDIA.


 


(c)The
parties hereto agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is
defined in the FDIA, then each transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in
the 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
hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation,”
respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA.

or under the control, of Seller. In addition, Seller shall also make available to Purchaser and/or Agent, upon reasonable prior
