 SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. Schedule 1 to the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
paragraphs (w), (qq) and (yy) in their entirety and replacing them with the following: 
 (w) Origination; Payment
Terms. Except with respect to a Correspondent Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan was originated by or in conjunction with Seller. Seller is a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203, 211 or 184
of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or other similar institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority. The documents, instruments
and agreements submitted for loan underwriting were not falsified and contain no untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the information and statements therein not
misleading. No Mortgage Loan contains terms or provisions which would result in negative amortization. Principal payments on a Mortgage Loan that is not a Ginnie Mae Modified Loan commenced no more than sixty (60) days after funds were
disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan. The mortgage interest rate as well as the lifetime rate cap and the periodic cap are as set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The Mortgage Note is payable in equal monthly installments of principal
and interest, which installments of interest, with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, are subject to change due to the adjustments to the mortgage interest rate on each interest rate adjustment date, with interest calculated and payable in
arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity date, over an original term of not more than thirty (30) years from commencement of amortization. Unless otherwise specified, the Mortgage Loan is payable on the
first day of each month. There are no Mortgage Loans which contain a provision allowing the Mortgagor to convert the Mortgage Note from an adjustable interest rate Mortgage Note to a fixed interest rate Mortgage Note. 

(qq) Construction or Rehabilitation of Mortgaged Property. Other than with respect to [***] or any other specific
Mortgage Loan acceptable to Buyer in writing, no Mortgage Loan was made in connection with the construction or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property or facilitating the trade in or exchange of a Mortgaged Property. 

  
 3 













 (yy) Predatory Lending Regulations; High Cost Loans. No
Mortgage Loan (i) is classified as High Cost Mortgage Loans or (ii) is subject to Section 226.32 of Regulation Z or any similar state law (relating to high interest rate credit/lending transactions). No Mortgagor was encouraged or
required to select a Mortgage Loan product offered by Seller or the originator which is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of the Mortgage Loan’s origination, such Mortgagor did not qualify taking
into account credit history and debt to income ratios for a lower cost credit product then offered by Seller or originator. 
 SECTION 5.
Scheduled Indebtedness. Schedule 3 to the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such schedule in its entirety and replacing it with Annex A hereto.
