TERMS


 


Section 2.01          Transactions.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Buyers severally, not jointly, agree to enter into Transactions with Seller for a Purchase
Price outstanding at any one time not to exceed the Aggregate Committed Amount; however, the Buyers may agree from time to time to enter
into Transactions with Seller for a Purchase Price outstanding in excess of the Aggregate Committed Amount but not to exceed the Maximum
Purchase Price. No Buyer shall have any commitment or obligation to enter into a Transaction in connection with the Note to the extent
the outstanding Purchase Price related to such Buyer after giving effect to such Transaction exceeds the related Committed Amount for
such Buyer. During the term of this Agreement, Seller may pay the Repurchase Price in whole or in part at any time during such period
without penalty, and additional Transactions may be entered into in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Each Buyer’s
obligation to enter into Transactions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall terminate on the Termination Date. All Transactions,
up to the Maximum Purchase Price, shall be effected by Buyers simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Commitment Share,
it being understood that no Buyer shall be responsible for any default by any other Buyer in such other Buyer’s obligation to enter
into a Transaction nor shall any Commitment Share of any Buyer be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Buyer
in such other Buyer’s obligation to enter into a Transaction hereunder, except to the extent agreed to by the non-Defaulting Buyer
pursuant to Section 2.02(b).


 






    	 	-14-	 



     


    

 


Section 2.02          Procedure
for Entering into Transactions.


 


(a)            Seller
may enter into Transactions with Buyers under this Agreement on any Purchase Date; provided, that Seller shall have given Administrative
Agent and Buyers irrevocable notice (each, a “Transaction Notice”), which notice (i) shall be substantially in
the form of Exhibit A, (ii) shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of Seller and be received by Administrative Agent
and Buyers prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) one (1) Business Day prior to the related Purchase Date, and (iii) shall
specify: (A) (i) the Maximum VFN Principal Balance of the Note; (ii) with respect to the first Purchase Date, the Initial
Note Balance of the Note, and, with respect to any other Purchase Date, the Additional Balance and (iii) after taking into account
the Additional Balance being requested on such Purchase Date, the outstanding VFN Principal Balance of the Note; (B) the Dollar amount
of the requested Purchase Price; (C) the requested Purchase Date; and (D) any additional terms or conditions of the Transaction
not inconsistent with this Agreement. Each Transaction Notice on any Purchase Date shall be in an amount equal to at least $500,000.


 


(b)            If
Seller delivers a Transaction Notice that satisfies the requirements of Section 2.02(a) and all applicable conditions
precedent set forth in Article V have been satisfied or waived on or prior to the Purchase Date, then subject to the
foregoing, on the Purchase Date, each Buyer shall remit its Commitment Share of the requested Purchase Price in U.S. Dollars and in immediately
available funds to Administrative Agent at the account specified in Schedule 3 (or such other account designated in writing by
the Administrative Agent) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date specified in the Transaction Notice as the Purchase
Date, and upon satisfaction or waiver of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall deposit such proceeds
into the account of Seller specified in Schedule 5 to the Base Indenture not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Purchase
Date (or such other account designated by Seller in the Transaction Notice).


 


The failure of either Buyer
to advance the proceeds of its Commitment Share of any Transaction required to be advanced hereunder shall not relieve the other Buyer
of its obligation to advance the proceeds of its Commitment Share of any such Transaction required to be advanced hereunder.


 


If a Buyer does not intend
to fund its Commitment Share of the requested Purchase Price, such Buyer shall, within one (1) Business Day of the related Purchase
Date, notify the Administrative Agent, the other Buyers and the Seller of its intent not to fund together with a description of the reason
for not remitting its Commitment Share of the requested Purchase Price.


 






    	 	-15-	 



     


    

 


The liabilities and obligations
of each Buyer hereunder shall be several and not joint, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the other Buyer shall be responsible
for the performance by a Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Each Buyer shall be liable to Seller only for the amount of its respective
Committed Amount. If a Buyer does not perform its obligations hereunder with respect to its Committed Amount (such Buyer a “Defaulting
Buyer”), all or any part of such Defaulting Buyer’s participation in any Transaction shall be reallocated to the other,
non-Defaulting Buyer, but only if (x) such non-Defaulting Buyer has consented to such reallocation in its sole and absolute discretion
and (y) the Seller has confirmed that the conditions set forth in Section 2.02(a) are satisfied at the time of such
reallocation.


 


Any Buyer previously designated
as a Defaulting Buyer shall no longer be deemed a Defaulting Buyer once each Buyer’s proportionate share of the outstanding Purchase
Price constituting Committed Amounts with respect to the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price constituting Committed Amounts is equal
to its respective Commitment Share.


 


(c)            Upon
entering into each Transaction hereunder, the Asset Schedule shall be automatically updated and replaced with the Asset Schedule attached
to the related Transaction Notice.


 


Section 2.03          Repurchase;
Payment of Repurchase Price.

hereby promises to repurchase the Purchased Assets and pay all outstanding Obligations on the Termination Date.


 


(b)            By
notifying Administrative Agent and each Buyer in writing at least one (1) Business Day in advance, Seller shall be permitted, at
its option, to prepay, subject to Section 2.12, the Purchase Price in whole or in part at any time, together with accrued
and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid.


 


Section 2.04          Price
Differential. On each Price Differential Payment Date, Seller hereby promises to pay to Administrative Agent (on behalf of Buyers)
all accrued and unpaid Price Differential on the Transactions, as invoiced by Administrative Agent to Seller three (3) Business
Days prior to the related Price Differential Payment Date (the “Price Differential Statement Date”); provided,
that on each Price Differential Payment Date prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the estimated Price Differential
owed hereunder shall be subject to a true-up of the amount determined by Administrative Agent and agreed by Seller one (1) Business
Day prior to the related Price Differential Payment Date. If Administrative Agent fails to deliver such statement on the Price Differential
Statement Date, on such Price Differential Payment Date Seller shall pay the amount which Seller calculates as the Price Differential
due and upon delivery of the statement, Seller shall remit to Administrative Agent any shortfall, or Administrative Agent shall refund
to Seller any excess, in the Price Differential paid. Price Differential shall accrue each day on the Purchase Price at a rate per annum
equal to the Pricing Rate. The Price Differential shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in each Price Differential
Period and a 360-day year.


 


Section 2.05          Margin
Maintenance.


 


(a)            If
at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of the Purchase Price of the Note is greater than the related Asset Value or the Maximum
Purchase Price (any such excess, a “Margin Deficit”), then Administrative Agent may, and, at the direction of all Buyers,
shall by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Administrative Agent cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit (such
requirement, a “Margin Call”).


 






    	 	-16-	 



     


    

 


(b)            Notice
delivered pursuant to Section 2.05(a) may be given by any written or electronic means. With respect to a Margin Call,
any notice given before 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no
later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day. With respect to a Margin Call, any notice given after 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New
York City time) on the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of such notice. The foregoing time requirements for satisfaction
of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”. The failure of Administrative Agent, on any one or more
occasions, to exercise the rights of Buyers hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is
subject or limit the right of Administrative Agent to do so at a later date. Seller, Buyers and Administrative Agent each agree that
a failure or delay by Administrative Agent to exercise the rights of Buyers hereunder shall not limit or waive Administrative Agent’s
rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.


 


Section 2.06          Payment
Procedure. Seller absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably, shall make, or cause to be made, all payments required to be made
by Seller hereunder. Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited all amounts constituting collection, payments and proceeds of the
Note (including all fees and proceeds of sale to a third party) to the Administrative Agent Account.

Section 2.10          Requirements
of Law.


 


(a)            If
any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to a Buyer’s certificate of trust and trust agreement or other
organizational or governing documents) or any change in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Buyer with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to
the Closing Date:


 


(i)           shall
subject such Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions (excluding income taxes, branch
profits taxes, franchise taxes or similar taxes imposed on a Buyer as a result of any present or former connection between such Buyer
and the United States, other than any such connection arising solely from such Buyer having executed, delivered or performed its obligations
or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement) or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Buyer in respect thereof;


 


(ii)          shall
impose, modify or hold any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other
liabilities in or for the account of, advances, or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of
such Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Price Differential hereunder; or


 


(iii)         shall
impose on such Buyer any other condition;


 


and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to such Buyer, by an amount which such Buyer deems to be material, of entering, continuing or maintaining this Agreement or any
other Program Agreement, the Transactions or to reduce any amount due or owing hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Seller
shall promptly pay such Buyer such additional amount or amounts as calculated by such Buyer in good faith as will compensate such Buyer
for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.


 


(b)            If
a Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made
to such Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other organizational or governing documents) regarding capital adequacy
or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Buyer or any corporation Controlling such Buyer with any request
or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the
Closing Date shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence
of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change
or compliance (taking into consideration such Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by
an amount deemed by such Buyer to be material, then from time to time, Seller shall promptly pay to such Buyer such additional amount
or amounts as will compensate such Buyer for such reduction.


 






    	 	-19-	 



     


    

 


(c)            If
a Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10, it shall promptly notify Seller of
the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.10
submitted by such Buyer to Seller shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.


 


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 or on account of, any and all present or future taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect
thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority
(collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by law. If Seller shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law
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 Administrative Agent and Buyers (including for purposes of Section 2.10 and this Section 2.11, any
assignee, successor or participant), (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) 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) Administrative Agent and Buyers receive an amount equal to the sum they would have
received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement the term “Non-Excluded
Taxes” are Taxes other than, in the case of Administrative Agent and Buyers, Taxes that are (i) imposed on its overall
net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Administrative Agent or Buyers are
organized or of their Applicable Lending Office, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of Administrative
Agent or Buyers having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any
of the other Program Agreements (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes) and (ii) imposed pursuant to FATCA.


 


(b)            In
addition, Seller hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added taxes, or similar
taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement or from
the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Program Agreement
(collectively, “Other Taxes”).


 


(c)            Seller
hereby agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and Buyers for, and to hold each of them harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded
Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable by Seller under this Section 2.11
imposed on or paid by Administrative Agent or Buyers and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by Seller provided for in this Section 2.11 shall apply and be made
whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted.
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 Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor.


 






    	 	-20-	 



     


    

 


(d)            Without
prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 2.11
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Program Agreements. Nothing contained in Section 2.10 or this
Section 2.11 shall require Administrative Agent or any Buyer to make available any of their tax returns or any other information
that they deem to be confidential or proprietary.


 


(e)            Administrative
Agent and Buyers will timely furnish Seller, or any agent of Seller, any tax forms or certifications (such as an applicable IRS Form W-8, IRS
Form W-9 or any successors to such IRS forms) that it is legally entitled to provide and that Seller or its agents may reasonably
request (A) to permit Seller or its agents to make payments to it without, or at a reduced rate of, deduction or withholding, (B) to
enable Seller or its agents to qualify for a reduced rate of withholding or deduction in any jurisdiction from or through which Seller
or its agents receive payments and (C) to enable Seller or its agents to satisfy reporting and other obligations under the Code and
Treasury Regulations and under any other applicable laws, and shall update or replace such tax forms or certifications as appropriate
or in accordance with their terms or subsequent amendments, and acknowledges that the failure to provide, update or replace any such tax
forms or certifications may result in the imposition of withholding or back-up withholding upon payments to Administrative Agent and Buyers.


 


Section 2.12          Indemnity.
Without limiting, and in addition to, the provisions of Section 11.02, Seller agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent
and each Buyer and to hold each of them harmless from any loss or expense that Administrative Agent or Buyers 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 an increase in the VFN Principal Balance, Seller shall deliver to
Administrative Agent and Buyers a copy of the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request that is delivered under the Indenture. If all the Funding
Conditions required pursuant to Sections 2.02(b) and 5.02 hereof and the Indenture have been satisfied, the VFN Principal
Balance shall be increased by the amount so reflected (such increase, an “Additional Balance”), and (i) the outstanding
VFN Principal Balance set forth in the Asset Schedule hereof shall be automatically updated and (ii) if requested by Seller pursuant
to Section 2.02, each Buyer shall thereupon deliver its portion of the related Purchase Price as set forth in Section 2.02(b).


 


Section 2.14          Commitment
Fee. Seller shall pay the Commitment Fee, if any, as specified in the Pricing Side Letter. Such payment shall be made in U.S. Dollars
in immediately available funds, without deduction, set off or counterclaim, to Administrative Agent at such account designated in writing
by Administrative Agent.

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 to Administrative Agent and each Buyer of such event, upon payment of the applicable Repurchase Price and satisfaction
of the other termination conditions set forth in the Indenture, 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 Administrative Agent and each Buyer in writing of its option to terminate this Agreement, each affected Buyer shall have the
right to withdraw its 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 Administrative Agent or Buyers pursuant to
Sections 2.10 and 2.11.

Existence. Seller has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company 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 (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect and is not
in default of such state’s applicable laws, rules and regulations. Seller has the requisite power and authority and legal
right to own, sell and grant a 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

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.

Section 3.04          Due
Authorization. Seller has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations

instrument, agreement or obligation to which Seller is a party.

Seller will promptly and duly execute and deliver, or will promptly cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments and

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 Administrative Agent segregated
from other funds of Seller, and shall forthwith upon receipt by Seller be turned over to Administrative Agent in the exact form received
by Seller (duly endorsed by Seller to Administrative Agent, if required) and (b) any and all such proceeds received by Administrative
Agent (whether from Seller or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, be held by Administrative Agent as collateral
security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by Administrative Agent against, the Obligations (whether matured
or unmatured), such application to be in such order as Administrative Agent 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, Administrative Agent may exercise (and at the direction of the Required Buyers
shall 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
Administrative Agent’s rights to a strict foreclosure under Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code). Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may seek (and at the direction of the Required Buyers shall seek) the appointment
of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee, or similar official in respect of Seller or any of Seller’s property. Administrative
Agent 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 (and at the direction of the Required Buyers shall) 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 Administrative Agent or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it
may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Repurchase Assets and make them available
to Administrative Agent at places which Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at Seller’s premises or elsewhere.
Administrative Agent 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 Administrative
Agent hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements of Administrative Agent or Buyers, to the payment in whole
or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Administrative Agent may elect (or shall elect at the direction of the Required Buyers),
and only after such application and after the payment by Administrative Agent of any other amount required or permitted by any provision
of law, including Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent
arising out of the exercise by Administrative Agent of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent. 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 Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency.

Section 4.08     Limitation
on Duties Regarding Preservation of Repurchase Assets. Administrative Agent’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 Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Administrative
Agent 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 Administrative Agent and Buyers of all Obligations hereunder,
and (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, Administrative Agent 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.


 


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 Administrative
Agent or Buyers 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 Administrative Agent
and Buyers and shall not oppose any pleading or motion by Administrative Agent and Buyers advocating that Administrative Agent and Buyers
should be treated as a separate class of creditors from Seller. Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase
Assets are and shall continue to be at all times while the obligations are outstanding junior and subordinate to the rights of Administrative
Agent and Buyers under this Agreement.

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 such Buyer or (B) an Event of Default has occurred;

such sale will not result in the Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable

such Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements; provided, that (i) Seller

shall have also acquired the same percentage interest in each other Series of Variable Funding Notes, unless such Transferee is an
Affiliate of such Buyer or unless Ginnie Mae has consented in writing to waive this requirement and (v) other than with respect to
an assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer consisting of a pro rata interest in all payments due to such Buyer under this Agreement
and prior to an Event of Default such 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. The related Buyer shall provide notice to Ginnie Mae within five (5) Business Days of any assignment, pledge or hypothecation
made in accordance with this Section 9.02(b). In the event of any such assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer by a
Buyer of its rights under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements, Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Buyer in connection with its rights and obligations under this Agreement. Administrative Agent (acting as agent for Seller) shall maintain
at its address referred to in Section 11.05 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.

(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.


 


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 a Buyer under this Agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a 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 of the Transactions entered into by Buyers. Failure
to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller’s obligations in respect of such Transactions.
If a 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.

PROVISIONS


 


Section 10.01    Appointment
of Administrative Agent.


 


(a)            Each
Buyer hereby irrevocably appoints Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Program Agreements, and each Buyer hereby authorizes Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, in such capacity, to act as its
agent in accordance with the terms hereof. The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent
and Buyers, and Seller shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions
and duties hereunder, Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of Buyers and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have
assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Seller.


 






    	 	-49-	 



     


    

 


(b)           The
Required Buyers may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and with the consent of Seller (such consent not to be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and not to be unreasonably withheld), by notice in writing to such Person remove such
Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of Seller (such consent not to be required if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing and not to be unreasonably withheld), appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent
shall have been so appointed by the Required Buyers and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier
day as shall be agreed by the Required Buyers and Seller), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such
notice on the date thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Buyers and Seller) after the Administrative
Agent’s receipt of such notice of removal.


 


Section 10.02     Powers
and Duties. Each Buyer irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on such Buyer’s behalf and to exercise
such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Program Agreements as are specifically delegated or granted to Administrative
Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative
Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Program Agreements. Administrative
Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. Administrative Agent
shall not have, by reason hereof or any of the other Program Agreements, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Buyer; and nothing
herein or any of the other Program Agreements, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Administrative
Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Program Agreements except as expressly set forth herein or therein.


 


Section 10.03     General
Immunity.


 


(a)            No
Responsibility for Certain Matters. Except for Administrative Agent’s failure to perform a specifically required task set forth
herein (and which failure constitutes gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final, non-appealable order), Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectability or sufficiency hereof or any other Program Agreement or with respect to any other party for any representations,
warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements,
instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by or on behalf of Buyers or any other party in connection
with the Program Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of Seller or
any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall Administrative Agent be required (except as set forth herein or
in the Program Agreements) to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants
or agreements contained in any of the Program Agreements or as to the use of the proceeds of the Transactions or as to the existence or
possible existence of any Event of Default or Default.

(b)           Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the Program Agreements except to the extent caused
by Administrative Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final, non-appealable order. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including
the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Program Agreements or from the exercise of any power, discretion
or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof
from Buyers and, upon receipt of such instructions from the Required Buyers, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so
instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions. Without prejudice
to the generality of the foregoing, (i) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying,
upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper
Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be
attorneys for Seller), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; (ii) no Buyer shall have any right of
action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting
hereunder or any of the other Program Agreements in accordance with the instructions of the Required Buyers; and (iii) no action
taken or omitted by Administrative Agent shall be considered to have resulted from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct if such action or omission was done at the direction of the Required Buyers.


 


Section 10.04    Administrative
Agent to Act as Buyer. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any
duties or obligations upon, Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Buyer, to the extent it becomes a Buyer hereunder. To
the extent that it becomes a Buyer hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Buyer and may exercise
the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Buyer” shall, unless
the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates
may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or
other business with Seller or any of their Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and
other consideration from Seller for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Buyers.


 


Section 10.05     Buyers’
Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.


 


(a)            Each
Buyer represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Seller in connection
with the Transactions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Seller. Administrative
Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such
appraisal on behalf of Buyers or to provide any Buyer with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its
possession before the making of the Transactions or at any time or times thereafter, and Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility
with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Buyers.


 


(b)           Unless
otherwise agreed to by Buyers and Seller, each Buyer, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and entering into Transactions
with Seller hereunder shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Program Agreement and each
other document required to be approved by Administrative Agent or Buyers, as applicable on the Closing Date or such other funding date.
Each Buyer acknowledges that by agreeing to remit its Commitment Share of the Purchase Price on any Purchase Date, such Buyer agrees that
all conditions precedent to entering into such Transaction have been met on such Purchase Date.


 


Section 10.06     Right
to Indemnity.


 


(a)            Each
Buyer, pro rata based on its outstanding Purchase Price, severally, but not jointly, shall, and hereby agrees to indemnify Administrative
Agent, any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (each, an “Indemnitee
Agent Party”), and hold such Indemnitee Agent Party harmless to the extent that such Indemnitee Agent Party shall not
have been reimbursed by Seller, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses
incurred by any of them (except to the extent that it has resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee
Agent Party) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee Agent Party in exercising its powers, rights and
remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Program Agreements or otherwise in its capacity as an Indemnitee Agent
Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Program Agreements, including amounts paid in settlement, court
costs and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding
or any advice rendered in connection with any of the foregoing. If any indemnity furnished to any Indemnitee Agent Party for any purpose
shall, in the opinion of such Indemnitee Agent Party, be insufficient or become impaired, such Indemnitee Agent Party may call for additional
indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided,
in no event shall this sentence require any Buyer to indemnify any Indemnitee Agent Party against any liability, obligation, loss, damage,
penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Buyer’s pro rata portion of the outstanding Purchase
Price thereof; and provided, further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Buyer to indemnify any Indemnitee
Agent Party against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described
in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.


 


(b)           Promptly
after receipt by the Indemnitee Agent Party of notice of the commencement of any action regarding which a claim in respect thereof is
to be made against Buyers, the Indemnitee Agent Party shall notify Buyers in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to
so notify will not relieve Buyers from any liability which they may have under this Agreement or from any other liability which they may
have, except to the extent that they have been prejudiced in any material respect by the failure by the Indemnitee Agent Party to provide
prompt notice. Upon receipt of notice by Buyers, Buyers will be entitled to participate in the related action, and they may elect by written
notice delivered to the Indemnitee Agent Party to assume the defense thereof. Upon receipt of notice by the Indemnitee Agent Party of
the Buyers’ election to assume the defense of such action, Buyers shall not be liable to the Indemnitee Agent Party for legal expenses
incurred by such party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) Buyers shall not have employed counsel to represent the
Indemnitee Agent Party within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of commencement of the action, (ii) Buyers have authorized
in writing the employment of separate counsel for the Indemnitee Agent Party, or (iii) the Indemnitee Agent Party has previously
engaged counsel and reasonable legal expenses are necessary (a) to transfer the file to the Buyers’ designated counsel, or
(b) to pursue immediate legal action necessary to preserve the legal rights or defenses of the Indemnitee Agent Party as against
a third party claimant, and such legal action must occur prior to said transfer. Buyers shall not settle any suit or claim without the
Indemnitee Agent Party’s written consent unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money by parties other than the Indemnitee
Agent Party and includes unconditional release of the Indemnitee Agent Party from all liability on all matters that are the subject of
such proceeding or claim.

Section 10.07     Successor
Administrative Agent.


 


(a)           Administrative
Agent may resign at any time by giving sixty (60) days’ prior written notice thereof to Buyers. Upon any such notice of resignation,
Buyers shall have the right to appoint a successor administrative agent; provided, that the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue
to hold the Collateral and all liens and security interest therein for the benefit of Buyers until a successor administrative agent is
appointed.


 


(b)           Upon
the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor administrative agent, that successor administrative
agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent
and the retiring Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor administrative agent all sums and items of Collateral
held under the Program Agreements, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance
of the duties of the successor administrative agent under the Program Agreements, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor
administrative agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection
with the assignment to such successor administrative agent of the security interests created under the Program Agreements, whereupon such
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X and Section 11.02 shall inure
to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder.


 


(c)            Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties as Administrative Agent hereunder to an Affiliate
without written notice to, the Buyers; provided, that Seller and Buyers may deem and treat such assigning Administrative Agent as Administrative
Agent for all purposes hereof, unless and until such assigning Administrative Agent provides written notice to Seller and Buyers of such
assignment. Upon such assignment such Affiliate shall succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties as Administrative
Agent hereunder and under the other Program Agreements.


 


Section 10.08     Delegation
of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Program
Agreement by or through (i) any one or more of its Affiliates or (ii) any one or more sub agents appointed by Administrative
Agent with the prior consent of the Required Buyers. Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties
and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees,
employees and agents. The exculpatory provisions of this Article X shall apply to any such Affiliate or sub agent and to
such other parties as are listed above provided that notwithstanding this Section 10.08, no such delegation relieves the
Administrative Agent of its duties or obligations under this Agreement.


 






    	 	-52-	 



     


    

 


Section 10.09     Right
to Realize on Collateral. Anything contained in any of the Program Agreements to the contrary notwithstanding, Seller, Administrative
Agent and each Buyer hereby agree that (i) no Buyer shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral, it being
understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Buyers
in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Program Agreements may be exercised solely by Administrative
Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale,
Administrative Agent or any Buyer may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and Administrative Agent, as
agent for and representative of Buyers (but not any Buyer or Buyers in its or their respective individual capacities unless Buyers shall
otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all
or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase
price for any collateral payable by Administrative Agent at such sale.


 


Section 10.10     Erroneous
Payments. (a)     If the Administrative Agent notifies a Buyer
or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Buyer (any such Buyer or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”)
that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative
Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient
(whether or not known to such Buyer or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment
or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”)
and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property
of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent,
and such Buyer shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient
to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such
Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with
interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment
Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the overnight federal funds
rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time
to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error. If a Payment Recipient receives any payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise
and does not receive a corresponding payment notice or payment advice, such payment, prepayment or repayment shall be presumed to be in
error absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary.


 






    	 	-53-	 



     


    

 


(b)           Each
Buyer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Buyer under any
Transaction Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Buyer from any source, against any amount
due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.


 


(c)            For
so long as an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) has not been returned by any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment
(or portion thereof) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”) to the Administrative Agent
after demand therefor in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), (i) the Administrative Agent may elect, in its sole discretion
on written notice to such Buyer, that all rights and claims of such Buyer with respect to the Repurchase Price or other Obligations owed
to such Person up to the amount of the corresponding Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency in respect of such Erroneous Payment (the “Corresponding
Repurchase Price”) shall immediately vest in the Administrative Agent upon such election; after such election, the Administrative
Agent (x) may reflect its ownership interest in the related Repurchase Price in a principal amount equal to the Corresponding Repurchase
Price on the Asset Schedule, and (y) upon five business days’ written notice to such Buyer, may sell such Repurchase Price
(or portion thereof) in respect of the Corresponding Repurchase Price, and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment
Return Deficiency owing by such Buyer shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Repurchase Price (or portion thereof),
and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Buyer (and/or against any Payment Recipient
that receives funds on its behalf), and (ii) each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has
sold such Repurchase Price, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent
shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Buyer with respect to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency.
For the avoidance of doubt, no vesting or sale pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) will reduce the Committed Amount of any Buyer
and such Committed Amount shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


 


(d)           The
parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the
Seller, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment
that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Seller for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.


 


(e)            No
Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim,
defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return
of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any
similar doctrine.


 


(f)            Each
party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 10.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of
the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Buyer, the termination of the obligations
set forth in Section 2.01 with respect to the Committed Amount and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations
(or any portion thereof) under any Transaction Document.

ARTICLE XI


 


MISCELLANEOUS


 


Section 11.01     Survival.
This Agreement and the other Program Agreements and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties herein and therein and
in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto and thereto, shall survive the entering into of the Transaction and shall continue in full
force and effect so long as any Obligations are outstanding and unpaid.


 


Section 11.02     Indemnification.
Seller shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Administrative Agent, each Buyer, any Affiliate of Administrative
Agent, any Affiliate of any Buyer and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses incurred by any of them (except to the extent that it is finally judicially
determined to have resulted from their own gross negligence or willful misconduct) as a consequence of, or arising out of or by reason
of any litigation, investigations, claims or proceedings which arise out of or are in any way related to, (i) this Agreement or
any other Program Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) Seller’s servicing practices or procedures;
(iii) any actual or proposed use by Seller of the proceeds of the Purchase Price, and (iv) any Default, Event of Default or
any other breach by Seller of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement, including amounts paid in settlement,
court costs and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such litigation, investigation, claim or
proceeding or any advice rendered in connection with any of the foregoing. If and to the extent that any Obligations are unenforceable
for any reason, Seller hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such Obligations which is permissible
under applicable law. Seller’s obligations set forth in this Section 11.02 shall survive any termination of this Agreement
and each other Program Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any
other of its obligations set forth in this Agreement or otherwise. In addition, Seller shall, upon demand, pay to Administrative Agent
and the Buyers all costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) paid or incurred by Administrative
Agent and Buyers in (i) enforcing or defending its rights under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement,
(ii) collecting the Purchase Price outstanding, (iii) foreclosing or otherwise collecting upon any Repurchase Assets and (iv) and
obtaining any legal, accounting or other advice in connection with any of the foregoing.

Section 11.03     Nonliability
of Buyers. The parties hereto agree that, notwithstanding any affiliation that may exist between or among Administrative Agent, Seller
and Buyers, the relationship between and among Administrative Agent, Seller and Buyers shall be solely that of arms-length participants.
Neither Administrative Agent nor any Buyer shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to Seller. Seller (i) agrees that neither Administrative
Agent nor any Buyer shall have any liability to Seller (whether 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 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 Administrative Agent and Buyers (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 Administrative
Agent or Buyers constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim
against Administrative Agent or any 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, neither Administrative Agent nor any Buyer shall 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 Administrative Agent and Buyers (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 Administrative
Agent or Buyers, as applicable, constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence.

Section 11.06     Severability.
Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall
be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement. In case any provision in or obligation
under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


Section 11.07     Section Headings.
The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way
affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.


 


Section 11.08     Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which
when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery
of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery
of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement may be accepted, executed or agreed to through
the use of an electronic signature in accordance with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, 15 U.S.C. §
7001 et seq, Official Text of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as approved by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform
State Laws at its Annual Conference on July 29, 1999 and any applicable state law. Any document accepted, executed or agreed to
in conformity with such laws will be binding on all parties hereto to the same extent as if it were physically executed and each party
hereby consents to the use of any secure third party electronic signature capture service with appropriate document access tracking,
electronic signature tracking and document retention, including DocuSign.


 


Section 11.09     Periodic
Due Diligence Review. Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers have the right to perform continuing due diligence
reviews with respect to Seller and the Purchased Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and
specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than five (5) Business Days’)
prior written notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Administrative Agent
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, inspect, and 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. Seller also
shall make available to Buyers and Administrative Agent 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 Buyers may enter
into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyers in the
Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Administrative Agent at its option or upon
the request of Buyers, 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 Administrative Agent and Buyers and any third party underwriter in connection
with such underwriting, including providing Administrative Agent and Buyers and any third party underwriter with access to any and all
documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control,
of Seller.

Section 11.10     Hypothecation
or Pledge of Repurchase Assets. Buyers shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets and nothing in this Agreement
shall preclude Buyers from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or part of its pro rata portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise
pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of its pro rata 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 Buyers under this Agreement;
provided, further that other than with respect to a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyers under this Agreement and prior to
an Event of Default Buyers receive an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such repurchase
transaction, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation will not result in 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 11.11     Non-Confidentiality
of Tax Treatment.


 


(a)           This
Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Buyers 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 the Required Buyers or Seller, except for (i) disclosure to Buyers’ or Seller’s direct and indirect Affiliates
and 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 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 Buyers or any pricing terms (including the Pricing Rate, Purchase Price
Percentage, Purchase Price and Commitment Fee (if any)) 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 Administrative Agent and Buyers.


 






    	 	-60-	 



     


    

 


(b)           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 Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers 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 Administrative Agent
to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this Section 11.11. Without limitation,
this may include Administrative Agent’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of Seller.
Seller shall notify Administrative Agent and Buyers immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality,
or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate of Administrative
Agent or Buyers provided directly to Seller by Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers. Seller
shall provide such notice to Administrative Agent by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier
with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.


 


Section 11.12     Set-off.
In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder and by law, Administrative Agent and Buyers 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 Affiliate thereof to Administrative Agent, Buyers
or any of their 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 Administrative Agent, Buyers or any
Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller or any Affiliate thereof. Administrative Agent agrees promptly to notify
Seller after any such set off and application made by a Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity
of such set off and application.


 


Section 11.13     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.


 






    	 	-61-	 



     


    

 


(b)           It
is understood that any party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or
to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described
in Sections 555 and 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, and that Seller be (except to the extent that Administrative Agent shall have exercised its remedies following an Event of
Default) the owner of the Purchased Assets for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Administrative Agent, Seller and Buyers
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).


 


Section 11.14     Amendment
and Restatement. The Administrative Agent, CSCIB and PLS entered into the Original Agreement.   The Administrative Agent,
CSCIB and PLS desire to enter into this Agreement in order to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety. The amendment
and restatement of the Original Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof, and each of the Administrative Agent, the Buyers
and PLS shall hereafter be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Program Agreements.  This Agreement
amends and restates the terms and conditions of the Original Agreement, and is not a novation of any of the agreements or obligations
incurred pursuant to the terms of the Original Agreement.  Accordingly, all of the agreements and obligations incurred pursuant
to the terms of the Original Agreement are hereby ratified and affirmed by the parties hereto and remain in full force and effect.  For
the avoidance of doubt, it is the intent of the Administrative Agent, CSCIB and PLS that the security interests and liens granted in
the Purchased Assets or Repurchase Assets pursuant to Original Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.  All references
to the Original Agreement in any Program Agreement or other document or instrument delivered in connection therewith shall be deemed
to refer to this Agreement and the provisions hereof.
