2.                                      Commitment.  (a) During the Term of this Letter Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Fannie Mae shall accept the sale and delivery of, and shall purchase, mortgage loans and pools of mortgage loans from PHH pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Early Funding Agreements, provided that Fannie Mae shall not be committed to purchase mortgage loans or pools of mortgage loans from PHH during the Term to the extent that, after giving effect to the purchase thereof, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans and pools of mortgage loans considered to be Pending (as defined below) for all Early Funding Agreements would exceed $500 million ($500,000,000.00) as of any given day.

pool of mortgages purchased by Fannie Mae have not been delivered to the identified forward trade counterparty) will be referred to as “Pending.”

 

(c)                                  During the Term of this Letter Agreement, Fannie Mae’s purchases of mortgage loans and pools of mortgage loans from PHH under the Early Funding Agreements shall be at the pricing levels set forth in the Pricing Terms Letter.

 

(d)                                 For the avoidance of doubt, this Letter Agreement is intended to create a binding commitment by Fannie Mae to purchase mortgage loans and pools of mortgage loans from PHH pursuant to the terms of the Early Funding Agreements, and as such, any provisions in the Early Funding Agreements that relate to:

 

(i) an Early Funding Agreement not being construed as conferring the right to PHH to deliver mortgage loans or pools of mortgage loans to Fannie Mae or an obligation of Fannie Mae to accept such deliveries;

 

(ii) an Early Funding Agreement not being a commitment of funds to PHH; or

 

(iii) the ability of either party to terminate or cancel an Early Funding Agreement at any time in the absence of a Termination Event or an Event of Default, as applicable, under such Early Funding Agreement;

 

shall be superseded by this Letter Agreement, provided, however, that except as set forth above, this Letter Agreement does not otherwise modify the terms and provisions of the Early Funding Agreements, including, without limitation, the procedures, and requirements of the initiation or completion of the delivery and sale of mortgage loans and pools of mortgage loans pursuant to the Early Funding Agreements or the ability of either party to declare an Event of Default or Termination Event under the Early Funding Agreements and exercise any rights and remedies arising therefrom.

(b)                                 The Commitment Fee shall be paid in equal quarterly installments, with payments due on the Effective Date, March 1, 2015, June 1, 2015, and September 1, 2015 (each such date, a “Payment Date”).  Each payment shall represent the portion of the Commitment Fee for the period starting on such scheduled Payment Date and ending on the day immediately preceding the next scheduled Payment Date (or the Scheduled Termination Date, in the case of the last quarterly payment).  The period from a scheduled Payment Date to the day immediately preceding the next scheduled Payment Date (or the Scheduled Termination Date) will be referred to herein as a “Payment Period”.  To the extent a Payment Date is not a business day, the Commitment Fee shall be paid on the next business day.

(c)                                  Commitment Fees attributable to prior Payment Periods are not refundable in the event of the early termination of this Letter Agreement.  Commitment Fees attributable to the then-current Payment Period will be refunded to PHH as set forth in Section 5 below. Commitment Fees shall be wired to Fannie Mae (or in the case of a refund, to PHH) to the account specified in the Pricing Terms Letter.

 

4.                                      Non-Usage Fee.  (a) PHH is required to pay a non-usage fee to Fannie Mae in the event its Average Monthly Balance (defined below) falls below the Minimum Average Monthly Balance (as defined in the Pricing Terms Letter) for any calendar month during the Term of this Letter Agreement.

 

(b)                                 The “Average Monthly Balance” shall be calculated monthly by adding together the daily aggregate unpaid principal balance of all Pending mortgage loans and pools of mortgage loans under all Early Funding Agreements in the aggregate, with that sum divided by the number of days in such month.  The Average Monthly Balance shall be calculated by Fannie Mae using data from Fannie Mae’s internal systems for tracking early funding transactions.  The data from these internal systems will be conclusive and binding upon PHH and Fannie Mae, absent manifest error.

 

(c)                                  In the event the Average Monthly Balance for a month is below the Minimum Average Monthly Balance, the Average Monthly Balance for such month shall be subtracted from the Minimum Average Monthly Balance, and the difference multiplied by the Annualized Non-Usage Rate (defined in the Pricing Terms Letter) based on the actual number of days during such month, to determine the “Non-Usage Fee.”  A Non-Usage Fee for a given month, if applicable, shall be paid by PHH to Fannie Mae by the fifth business day of the following month, provided that Fannie Mae has provided PHH at least three business days prior notice of the amount of the Non-Usage Fee that is due and payable, together with a reasonably detailed calculation of the Non-Usage Fee.  Any Non-Usage Fees paid to Fannie Mae will not be refunded to PHH in the event of the early termination of this Letter Agreement.

 

5.                          Termination Events; Remedies.  (a)  The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a “PHH Termination Event”:

 

(i)                                     the occurrence of any Event of Default or Termination Event as set forth in an Early Funding Agreement, after the expiration of any applicable cure period;

 

(ii)                                  the occurrence of a “Material Adverse Change” with respect to PHH, which shall mean the occurrence of an event that would cause a material and adverse change in the financial condition, business, or operations of PHH and its parent or subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as a result of any

event that disproportionately impacts PHH and its parent or subsidiaries relative to similarly-sized mortgage companies;

 

(iii)                              the failure of PHH to comply with Section 16 of this Agreement, which failure continues for five (5) business days following PHH’s receipt of written notice thereof from Fannie Mae;

 

(iv)                              PHH’s “Lender Adjusted Net Worth”, as such term is defined in Subpart A4-2-01 of the Fannie Mae Selling Guide, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Guide”), decreasing below $600 million;

(vi)                              RESERVED;

(viii)                       the occurrence of any legislative or regulatory action that causes this Letter Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to be contrary to applicable law;

 

(ix)                              the Consolidated Net Worth on the last day of any fiscal quarter of PHH Corporation after the Effective Date, being less than US$1 billion;

 

(x)                                 on the last day of each fiscal quarter of PHH Corporation, the ratio of Indebtedness to Tangible Net Worth being in excess of 6.0 to 1.0;

 

(xi)                              the failure by PHH Corporation and its Subsidiaries to maintain aggregate Available Borrowing Capacity of at least US$750 million at all times (excluding committed or uncommitted loan purchase arrangements or other funding arrangements from Fannie Mae related to the Early Funding Agreements or otherwise, and any warehouse capacity provided by Government-Sponsored Enterprises), provided, that no more than US$500 million of such capacity is in respect of facilities that are exclusively gestation facilities; and

 

(xii)                           (i) a default in payment shall be made with respect to any Indebtedness of PHH Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Securitization Indebtedness) where the amount or amounts of such Indebtedness exceeds US$25 million (or its equivalent thereof in any other currency) in the

aggregate; or (ii) default in payment or performance shall be made with respect to any Indebtedness of PHH Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (other than Securitization Indebtedness) where the amount or amounts of such Indebtedness exceeds US$25 million (or its equivalent thereof in any other currency) in the aggregate, if the effect of such default is to result in the acceleration of the maturity of such Indebtedness; or (iii) any other circumstance shall arise (other than the mere passage of time) by reason of which PHH Corporation or any Subsidiary of PHH Corporation is required to redeem or repurchase, or offer to holders the opportunity to have redeemed or repurchased, any such Indebtedness (other than Securitization Indebtedness) where the amount or amounts of such Indebtedness exceeds US$25 million (or its equivalent thereof in any other currency) in the aggregate; provided that clause (iii) shall not apply to secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of a voluntary sale of the property or assets securing such Indebtedness or Indebtedness that is redeemed or repurchased at the option of PHH Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or with respect to any Indebtedness that is convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of capital stock of PHH Corporation and/or cash based on any formula(s) that reference the trading price of shares of capital stock of PHH Corporation, any payment for settlement (whether in cash or otherwise) upon conversion thereof and provided, further, that clauses (ii) and (iii) shall not apply to any Indebtedness of any Subsidiary issued and outstanding prior to the date such Subsidiary became a Subsidiary of PHH Corporation (other than Indebtedness issued in connection with, or in anticipation of, such Subsidiary becoming a Subsidiary of PHH Corporation) if such default or circumstance arises solely as a result of a “change of control” provision applicable to such Indebtedness which becomes operative as a result of the acquisition of such Subsidiary by PHH Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.

(ii)                                 the occurrence of any legislative or regulatory action that causes this Letter Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to be contrary to applicable law; and

 

(iii)                              the termination of each As Soon As Pooled Sale Agreement between Fannie Mae and PHH and each As Soon As Pooled Plus Agreement between Fannie Mae and PHH.
