therefor (except that, if the change in any Requirement of Law giving rise to such additional amounts or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 Section 2.11 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of Seller under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreements to which Seller is a
party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by any applicable Requirement of Law. If Seller shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law (as determined in the good faith
discretion of Seller or an applicable withholding agent) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Program Agreements to Buyer, (i) Seller shall make all such
deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) Seller shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable Requirement of
Law, and (iii) to the extent the withheld or deducted Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as may be necessary so that after Seller has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and
withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.11) Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. 

(b) Seller hereby agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Buyer
reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 
 (c) Seller hereby agrees to indemnify Buyer for any Indemnified Taxes (including
Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.11) payable or paid by Administrative Agent or Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Buyer and any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Amounts payable by Seller under the indemnity set forth in
this Section 2.11(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which Buyer makes written demand therefor.

 (d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Seller hereunder, each
party’s obligations contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Program Agreements, any assignment of rights by or the replacement of a Buyer, the resignation or replacement of the
Administrative Agent, and the satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Program Agreement. Nothing contained in Section 2.10 or this Section 2.11 shall require any Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or any
other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary. 
 (e) Administrative Agent shall and shall cause each Buyer to deliver to
Seller, at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller or the Administrative Agent as will permit payments to be made under this Agreement and the other Program
Agreements to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall and shall cause each Buyer, if reasonably requested by Seller, to deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Seller as will enable the Seller to determine whether or not Administrative Agent or such Buyer is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.11(e)(A), (B) and (D) below) shall not be required if in Buyer’s
reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Buyer. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, in the event that the Seller is a U.S. Seller: 
 (A) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant
which is a U.S. Person, Administrative Agent shall and shall cause each Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant to deliver to the Seller an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S.
federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant which is not a U.S. Person,
Administrative Agent shall and shall cause each Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant to deliver to the Seller, to the extent the Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant is legally entitled to do so (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the
Seller), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (I) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant claiming
the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or any Program Agreement, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS
Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and

of such tax treaty; 
 (II) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

  
 -20- 













 (III) in the case of a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant claiming the
benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant
is not a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller within the meaning of section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to
Seller as described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W
8BEN-E; or 
 (IV) to the extent a Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant is not the
beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W 8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibits D-2 or D-3, IRS Form
W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of
such Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit
D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Buyer, Buyer
assignee or participant that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Seller) on or about the date on which such Buyer, Buyer assignee or
participant becomes a Buyer, Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law
as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction
required to be made; and 
 (D) if a payment made to a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement or any
other Program Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or assignee or participant were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in section
1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Administrative Agent on behalf of such Buyer or assignee or participant shall deliver to the Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Seller
such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Seller as may be necessary for the Seller to comply with its obligations
under FATCA and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.11(e)(D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


  
 -21- 













 The applicable IRS forms referred to above in this Section 2.11(e) shall be delivered
by Administrative Agent on behalf of each applicable Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant on or prior to the date on which such person becomes a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement, as the case may be, and upon the
obsolescence or invalidity of any IRS form previously delivered by it hereunder. 
 (f) If any party determines, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to
pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would
have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This
paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

Section 2.12 Indemnity. Without limiting, and in addition to, the provisions of Section 10.02, Seller agrees to
indemnify the Buyer and to hold Buyer harmless from any loss or expense that Buyer may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) a default by Seller in payment when due of the Repurchase Price or Price Differential or (ii) a default by Seller in
making any prepayment of Repurchase Price after Seller has given a notice thereof in accordance with Section 2.03. 

Section 2.13 Additional Balance and Additional Funding. In the event that Seller wishes to obtain an increase in the VFN Principal
Balance, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a copy of the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request that is delivered under the Indenture. If all the Funding Conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied, and if the aggregate outstanding Purchase
Price, after giving effect to the requested increase, exceeds the Committed Amount or if such request is made on or after the Amortization Date, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion (provided that the consent of the
Administrative Agent shall not be required in the event that the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price, after giving effect to the requested increase, does not exceed the Committed Amount and if such request occurs prior to the Amortization Date)
then upon approval in writing by Buyer of such increase in the VFN Principal Balance (such increase, upon such approval, an “Additional Balance”), (i) the outstanding VFN Principal Balance set forth in the Asset Schedule
hereof shall be automatically updated and (ii) Buyer shall thereupon deliver to Seller cash in an amount (the “Additional Funding”) equal to the product of such Additional Balance and the Purchase Price Percentage. 

  
 -22- 













 Section 2.14 Commitment Fee; Non-Extension
Fee. Seller shall pay the Commitment Fee or the Non-Extension Fee, if applicable, each as specified in the Pricing Side Letter. Such payments shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds,
without deduction, set off or counterclaim, to Buyer at such account designated in writing by Buyer. 
 Section 2.15 Termination.

 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if a Seller Termination Option occurs, Seller may, upon five
(5) Business Days’ prior written notice of such event, terminate this Agreement and the Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred (upon the expiration of such five (5) Business Day period). 

(b) In the event that a Seller Termination Option as described in clause (a) of the definition thereof has occurred and Seller has
notified Buyer in writing of its option to terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to withdraw such request for payment within three (3) Business Days of Seller’s notice of its exercise of the Seller Termination Option and
Seller shall no longer have the right to terminate this Agreement. 
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall remain responsible for all
costs actually incurred by Buyer pursuant to Sections 2.10 and 2.11.

Section 3.01 Seller Existence. Seller has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware. 
 Section 3.02 Licenses. Seller is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each jurisdiction
in which it transacts business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any applicable federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in either instance, the failure to take such action is not reasonably likely

lien on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Note. Seller has the requisite power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the terms and conditions of,
this Agreement, each other Program Agreement and any Transaction Notice. 
 Section 3.03 Power. Seller has all requisite
corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 -23- 













 Section 3.04 Due Authorization. Seller has all necessary corporate or other
power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Agreements, as applicable. This Agreement, any Transaction Notice and the Program Agreements have been (or, in the case of Program Agreements
and any Transaction Notice not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by Seller, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against Seller in accordance with its
terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material
unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Seller except as heretofore disclosed to Buyer in writing.

or securities. 
 Section 3.07 Solvency. Seller is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Transaction and, after

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 4.06 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 liquid assets readily convertible to 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 4.07 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 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. 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 

  
 -30- 













 
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 them 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 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 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 ten (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 4.07 concerning any actions with respect to the MSRs arising under or related to any Servicing Contract shall be subject to the Acknowledgment Agreement entered into with Ginnie Mae. 

Section 4.08 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 4.09 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 4.10 Release of Security Interest. Upon the latest to
occur of (a) the repayment to Buyer of all Obligations hereunder, 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. 

  
 -31- 













 Section 4.11 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 is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Buyer upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise,
all as if such release had not been made. 
 Section 4.12 Subordination. Seller shall not seek in any Insolvency Event of the
Issuer 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 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.

 ARTICLE VIII 

ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENTS 

AND WAIVERS; SEPARATE ACTIONS BY BUYER 

Section 8.01 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto) constitutes the entire agreement of
the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements, written or oral, as to the matters contained herein, and no modification or waiver of any provision hereof or any of the Program Agreements, nor consent to the
departure by Seller therefrom, shall be effective unless the same is in writing, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for the purpose, for which it is given. 

Section 8.02 Waivers, Separate Actions by Buyer. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Article VIII
shall be binding upon Buyer and Seller; and Buyer’s failure to insist upon the strict performance of any term, condition or other provision of this Agreement or any of the Program Agreements, or to exercise any right or remedy hereunder or

exercise, or the exercise of any other right 

  
 -45-

 ARTICLE IX 

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 

Section 9.01 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns, any portion thereof, or any interest therein. Seller shall not have the right to assign all or any part of this Agreement or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Buyer. 

Section 9.02 Participations and Transfers. 

(a) Buyer may in accordance with applicable law at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”)
participating interests in all or a portion of Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements; provided, that (i) Seller has consented to such sale; provided, however,
Seller’s consent shall not be required in the event that (A) such Participant is an Affiliate of Buyer or (B) an Event of Default has occurred; (ii) each such sale shall represent an interest in a Transaction in a Purchase Price
of [***] or more and (iii) other than with respect to a participating interest consisting of a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyer under this Agreement and prior to an Event of Default Buyer receives an opinion of a nationally
recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such sale will not result in the Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable as
a corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event of any such sale by Buyer of participating interests to a Participant, Buyer shall remain a party to the Transaction for all purposes under this Agreement and Seller shall
continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) Buyer may
in accordance with applicable law at any time assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise transfer to one or more banks, financial institutions, investment companies, investment funds or any other Person (each, a “Transferee”) all or
a portion of Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements; provided, that (i) Seller has consented to such assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other transfer; provided,
however, Seller’s consent shall not be required in the event that (A) such Transferee is an Affiliate of Buyer or (B) an Event of Default has occurred; (ii) absent an Event of Default, Buyer shall give at least ten
days’ prior notice thereof to Seller; and (iii) that each such sale shall represent an interest in the Transactions in an aggregate Purchase Price of [***] or more and (iv) other than with respect to an assignment, pledge,
hypothecation or transfer consisting of a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyer under this Agreement and 

  
 -46- 













 prior to an Event of Default Buyer received an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in
such matters that such assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer will not result in the Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable
as a corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event of any such assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer by Buyer of Buyer’s rights under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements, Seller shall continue to deal
solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Buyer (acting solely for this purpose as an agent for Seller) shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.05 a copy of
each assignment and assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of Transferees, and the Purchase Price outstanding and Price Differential in the Transactions held by each
thereof. The entries in the Register shall be prima facie conclusive and binding, and Seller may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Transactions recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. No
assignment shall be effective until it is recorded in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Seller and any Buyer, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(c) All actions taken by Buyer pursuant to this Section 9.02 shall be at the expense of Buyer. Buyer may distribute to any prospective
assignee any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller subject to any related confidentiality provisions contained herein. 

Section 9.03 Buyer and Participant Register. 

(a) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.03, from and after the effective
date specified in each assignment and acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such assignment and acceptance, have the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement. Any
assignment or transfer by Buyer of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.03 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Buyer of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with Section 9.02. 
 (b) Seller or an agent of Seller shall maintain a register (the
“Transaction Register”) on which it will record the Transactions entered into hereunder, and each assignment and acceptance and participation. The Transaction Register shall include the names and addresses of Buyers
(including all assignees, successors and Participants), and the Purchase Price (and stated interest) of the Transactions entered into by Buyer. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller’s
obligations in respect of such Transactions. If Buyer sells a participation in any Transaction, it shall provide Seller, or maintain as agent of Seller, the information described in this paragraph and permit Seller to review such information as
reasonably needed for Seller to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable law or governmental regulation or procedure, including, without limitation, as necessary to establish that such Transaction is in registered
form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The information maintained by a Buyer or by the Seller with respect to participations shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and Buyer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such participant registers as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative
Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a participant register.

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 10.01 Survival. This Agreement and the other Program Agreements and all covenants, agreements, representations and

sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by Seller in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the 

  
 -48- 













 relationship established by this agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in
connection herewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined by a judgment of a court that is binding on Buyer (which judgment shall be final and not subject to review on appeal), that such losses were
the result of acts or omissions on the part of Buyer constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim against Buyer (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise), except a claim
based upon gross negligence or willful misconduct. Whether or not such damages are related to a claim that is subject to such waiver and whether or not such waiver is effective, Buyer shall not have any liability with respect to, and Seller hereby
waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by Seller in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated or the relationship
established by this Agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith or therewith, unless it is determined by a judgment of a
court that is binding on Buyer (which judgment shall be final and not subject to review on appeal), that such damages were the result of acts or omissions on the part of Buyer, as applicable, constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence. 

Section 10.04 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers.

Seller, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the ordinary conduct of Seller’s business, to examine and inspect, and solely if an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to make copies and extracts of, any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession or under the control of Seller provided that
unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Seller shall only be obligated to reimburse Buyer’s Expenses for one (1) inspection or visit per year. Seller also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or
accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Purchased Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may enter into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from Seller
based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due
diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Assets related to a Transaction. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including providing Buyer and any third party underwriter

Section 10.10 Hypothecation or Pledge of Repurchase Assets. Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets
and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of the
Repurchase Assets; provided that prior to an Event of Default, such pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation is treated as a financing or hedging transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes or a pro rata interest in all
payments due to Buyer under this Agreement; provided, further that other than with respect to a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyer under this Agreement and prior to an Event of Default Buyer receives an opinion of 

  
 -52- 













 a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such repurchase transaction, pledge,
repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation will not result in the Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable as a
corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 
 Section 10.11 Non-Confidentiality
of Tax Treatment. 
 (a) This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to
Buyer or Seller, as applicable and shall be held by each party hereto, as applicable in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Buyer or Seller, except for (i) disclosure to Buyer’s or
Seller’s direct and indirect Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, or (ii) disclosure required by law, rule,
regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the 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 the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses)
relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that Seller may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Buyer or any pricing terms (including
the Pricing Rate, the Purchase Price Percentage, the Purchase Price, the Commitment Fee or the Non-Extension Fee, if applicable) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits)
that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of Buyer. 

(b) The Buyer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all information received from the Seller relating to the Seller or its Subsidiaries or
their respective businesses (the “Information”), except that Information may be disclosed: (i) to its Affiliates (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature

 (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall comply with all
applicable local, state and federal laws, including 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 “GLB Act”), and
Seller 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 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 GLB 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 GLB 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 10.11. 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, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller or any Subsidiary 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 or any Subsidiary thereof. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller 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 “master netting 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 is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections
555 and Section 561 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 “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555 under the Bankruptcy Code, and a
“master netting agreement,” within the meaning of Section 561 under the Bankruptcy Code. 
 (f) It is the intention of the
parties that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for accounting purposes, each Transaction constitute a financing with Seller incurring an indebtedness, and that Seller be (except to the extent that Buyer shall have exercised its remedies
following an Event of Default) the owner of the Purchased Assets for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable law that becomes effective after the date of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall treat the Transactions as described in the
preceding sentence (including on any and all filings with any U.S. federal, state, or local taxing authority and agree not to take any action inconsistent with such treatment).
