Borrowers. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement. 
 WHEREAS,
Residential Capital, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GMAC; and 
 WHEREAS, significant equity investments have been and may be made directly and
indirectly by the U.S. Department of Treasury (“UST”) into GMAC and certain other ownership and governance changes with respect to GMAC have, will or may take place in the form of (1) the direct acquisition by the UST of equity

naming GM as beneficiary (the “GM Trusts”); (3) disposition by GM of its beneficial interest in the GM Trusts; and (4) any transactions or agreements entered into in connection therewith including the appointment,
designation or election of directors (or the equivalent) (collectively, the “Specified Transactions”); and

consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto have agreed to enter into this Waiver and Amendment Agreement.

“Change of Control” in the Guarantee is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

hereof and prior to the effectiveness hereof.
