As previously disclosed, Radian Mortgage Capital LLC ("RMC"), a subsidiary of Radian Group Inc. (the "Company") is a party to the Uncommitted Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of January 29, 2024 (assigned by Flagstar Bank N.A. to JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association ("JPMorgan"), as administrative agent, effective as of July 22, 2024) to finance the acquisition of mortgage loans and related mortgage loan assets (the "JP Morgan MRA"). RMC uses the financing facility to finance its acquisition of residential mortgage loans, which are held by RMC for direct sale to mortgage investors or distribution in the capital markets through securitization. Also, as previously disclosed, in connection with the JP Morgan MRA, on January 29, 2024, the Company entered into a Guaranty Agreement in favor of JPMorgan (the "Parent Guaranty") to guaranty the obligations of RMC under the JP Morgan MRA. Since January 2024, RMC, the Company and JPMorgan have amended the JP Morgan MRA, most recently to temporarily increase the maximum borrowing amount to $400 million through August 28, 2025.

On August 28, 2025, RMC, the Company and JPMorgan entered into Amendment No. 3 to the JP Morgan MRA ("Amendment No. 3") to increase the maximum borrowing amount to $500 million and extend the termination date of the JPMorgan MRA to August 27, 2026. Amendment No. 3 includes a reaffirmation of the Company's obligations under the Parent Guaranty. In all other material respects the terms of the JP Morgan MRA, including the Parent Guaranty, remain unchanged.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 3, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, Administrative Agent may enter into Transactions with Seller, from time to time, from and after the date hereof and prior to the Facility Termination Date; <u>provided</u> that the Aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of all Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions at any time will not exceed the Maximum Transaction Amount; and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that at the time of delivery by Seller to Administrative Agent of any Transaction Request, and after giving effect to the related Transactions thereof, there has not occurred and is not continuing any Default or Event of Default. Seller shall immediately take such steps as may be necessary to comply with the requirements of this <u>Section 2.1(a)</u>. All Transaction Requests will be in such form as Administrative Agent requires. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will Administrative Agent be obligated to enter into any Transactions hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Transactions are subject to the following terms, conditions, and requirements, in addition to any other terms, conditions, and requirements set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, and will be made only if approved by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The aggregate outstanding Purchase Price with respect to Mortgage Loans of the same type shall at no time exceed the Concentration Limit for such type of Mortgage Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) At no time shall any Purchased Mortgage Loan for any reason cease to be an Eligible Mortgage Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, the Repurchase Price with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan concurrently with the sale and assignment of such Purchased Mortgage Loan to Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Takeout Purchaser) or another Takeout Purchaser, including the sale or other disposition of an Agency MBS of which such Purchased Mortgage Loan is a part, if applicable.

------

Seller shall immediately take such steps as may be necessary to comply with the requirements of this <u>Section 2.1(b)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2 <u>Entering into Transactions</u>. All Transactions under this Agreement shall be deemed Direct Disbursement Transactions and all procedures for initiating and entering into such Transactions shall be governed by and made in accordance with the Transaction Guidelines. All Transactions involving eMortgage Loans under this Agreement shall be governed by the eMortgage Loan Annex.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3 <u>Price Differential</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3.1 For each Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall pay Administrative Agent the Price Differential calculated from the Purchase Date until, but not including, the date on which the Repurchase Price is paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3.2 With respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Price Differential shall be due and payable upon Seller's receipt of an invoice provided by Administrative Agent setting forth the Price Differential accrued during the immediately preceding Collection Period(s), as set forth in such invoice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section 2.3.2</u>, in the event the Asset Value of any Purchased Mortgage Loan is marked to zero and Seller requests that Administrative Agent release its security interest in such Purchased Mortgage Loan or any Purchased Assets related thereto, Administrative Agent shall not release any such security interest therein unless and until Seller shall have paid to Administrative Agent the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4 <u>Repurchase</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4.1 <u>Payment of Repurchase Price</u>. The Repurchase Price for each applicable Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be payable in full by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Operating Account, upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Repurchase Date of the related Transaction, (ii) at Administrative Agent's sole option, upon the occurrence of such Purchased Mortgage Loan failing to be an Eligible Mortgage Loan, (iii) at Administrative Agent's sole option, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, or (iv) the Facility Termination Date. Such obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan. Although it is anticipated that Seller will repurchase each Purchased Mortgage Loan on its related Repurchase Date, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Seller may repurchase and Administrative Agent will sell any Purchased Mortgage Loan hereunder on demand to Seller without penalty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4.2 <u>Effect of Payment of Repurchase Price</u>. On the Repurchase Date (or such other date on which the Repurchase Price is received in full by Administrative Agent), termination of the related Transaction will be effected by the repurchase by Seller or its designee of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and any related Purchased Assets and the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price to Administrative Agent (in each case, in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.4.1</u> hereof), and all of Administrative Agent's rights, title, and interests therein shall then be conveyed to Seller or its designee and any lien and security interest of Administrative Agent in

------

such Purchased Mortgage Loans; <u>provided</u> that Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have terminated or conveyed its interest in any such Purchased Mortgage Loans and any related Purchased Assets if an Event of Default shall then be continuing or shall be caused by such repurchase, or if such repurchase gives rise to or perpetuates a Margin Deficit that is not satisfied in accordance with <u>Section 2.7</u> hereof. On the Repurchase Date, Seller is obligated to obtain the related Mortgage Documents from the Custodian at Seller's expense. To the extent that any UCC financing statement filed by Administrative Agent against Seller specifically identifies such Purchased Mortgage Loans and any related Purchased Assets or, upon Seller's request, at Seller's expense and within reasonable time to file such UCC financing statement(s), Administrative Agent shall deliver an amendment thereto or termination thereof evidencing the release of such Purchased Mortgage Loans and any related Purchased Assets from Administrative Agent's security interest therein. Any such transfer or release shall be without recourse to Administrative Agent and without representation or warranty by Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.5 <u>Fees</u>. Seller will pay to Administrative Agent the Fees set forth in the Fee and Pricing Letter in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.6 <u>Temporary Increase in the Maximum Transaction Amount</u>. Seller may request a temporary increase of the Maximum Transaction Amount (a "<u>Temporary Increase</u>") by submitting an executed request for Temporary Increase to Administrative Agent in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (a "<u>Request for Temporary Increase</u>"), setting forth the requested increased Maximum Transaction Amount (such increased amount, the "<u>Temporary Maximum Transaction Amount</u>"), the effective date and time of such Temporary Increase, and the date and time on which such Temporary Increase shall terminate. Administrative Agent may from time to time and in its sole and absolute discretion consent to such Temporary Increase in writing. At any time that a Temporary Increase is in effect, the Maximum Transaction Amount shall equal the Temporary Maximum Transaction Amount for all purposes hereof and all calculations and provisions relating to the Maximum Transaction Amount shall refer to the Temporary Maximum Transaction Amount. Upon the termination of a Temporary Increase, Seller shall be obligated to repurchase, and shall repurchase, upon notice by Administrative Agent to Seller, Purchased Mortgage Loans as are designated by Administrative Agent to be repurchased by Seller in order to reduce the Aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price to the Maximum Transaction Amount (as *reduced by* the termination of such Temporary Increase) and ensure that no Concentration Limit is exceeded after giving effect to such repurchase and termination of the Temporary Increase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.7 <u>Margin Maintenance</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.7.1 Asset Value. Administrative Agent shall have the right to determine the Asset Value of each Purchased Mortgage Loan at any time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.7.2 Margin Deficit and Margin Call. If Administrative Agent shall determine on any Business Day that (a) the Aggregate Asset Value with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans is less than the Aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of all Transactions or (b) the Asset Value with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan is less than the outstanding Purchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan (in any such case, a "<u>Margin Deficit</u>") and such Margin Deficit is greater than the Margin Threshold, then Administrative Agent may, at its sole option, and by notice to Seller (a "<u>Margin Call</u>"), require Seller to either, with respect to a Margin Call delivered pursuant to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Section 2.7.2(a)</u> hereof, deposit cash into the Operating Account so that the Aggregate Asset Value will thereupon equal or exceed the Aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of all Transactions; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Section 2.7.2(a)</u> hereof, pay one (1) or more Repurchase Prices (as selected by Administrative Agent), as applicable, in an amount sufficient to reduce the related Purchase Price so that the Aggregate Outstanding Purchase Price of all Transactions is less than or equal to the Aggregate Asset Value; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Section 2.7.2(b)</u> hereof, pay the Repurchase Price of the affected Purchased Mortgage Loan in an amount sufficient to reduce the related Purchase Price so that the outstanding Purchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan is less than or equal to the Asset Value thereof.

If Administrative Agent delivers a Margin Call to Seller prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day, then Seller shall transfer in immediately available funds the cash required by such Margin Call to Administrative Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day. Notice of a Margin Call may be provided by Administrative Agent to Seller electronically or in writing (such as via email).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.7.3 <u>Administrative Agent's Discretion</u>. Administrative Agent's election at any time not to deliver a Margin Call at any time a Margin Deficit otherwise exists shall not in any way limit or impair Administrative Agent's right to deliver a Margin Call hereunder at any time a Margin Deficit exists.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.8 <u>Default Rate</u>. If any Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the entire amount due hereunder (including Repurchase Prices and Price Differential) will bear interest at the Default Rate applicable thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.9 <u>Reserved</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.10 <u>Financing Expenses</u>. Seller will pay and indemnify Administrative Agent and Buyers, as applicable, and hold each harmless against all Financing Expenses. All Financing Expenses will be paid at execution of this Agreement or, to the extent incurred or billed thereafter, immediately on written demand therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.11 <u>Automatic Debit</u>. Seller authorizes Administrative Agent to automatically debit any Price Differential due with respect to any Transaction(s) and any other Obligations from time to time due and payable hereunder on the applicable due date therefor from any deposit account that Seller maintains with Administrative Agent without prior notice provided to Seller. Administrative Agent's failure to so charge any such account will not (i) affect Seller's obligation hereunder to pay any payment when due and payable, (ii) operate as a waiver of any right to subsequently debit any deposit account that Seller maintains with Administrative Agent, without prior notice to Seller, or (iii) operate as a waiver of any other rights of Administrative Agent hereunder.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.12 <u>NO COMMITMENT</u>.

AT NO TIME SHALL ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT BE UNDER ANY OBLIGATION TO ENTER INTO TRANSACTIONS WITH SELLER (NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED HEREIN OR IN THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS OR ELSEWHERE TO THE CONTRARY) AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME, WITHOUT NOTICE, AND IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, MAY REFUSE TO ENTER INTO TRANSACTIONS WITH SELLER WITHOUT INCURRING ANY LIABILITY DUE TO THIS REFUSAL AND WITHOUT AFFECTING SELLER'S LIABILITY HEREUNDER AND UNDER THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS FOR ANY AND ALL OBLIGATIONS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>6.13 Servicing-Released and Servicing-Retained Transactions.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>6.13.1 Seller's sale of PennyMac Mortgage Loans to Administrative Agent pursuant to Transactions hereunder does not include the Servicing Rights or the Servicing Records related to such PennyMac Mortgage Loans and all Transactions with respect to the PennyMac Mortgage Loans are "servicing-retained" purchase and sale transactions for all intents and purposes (other than tax purposes), it being understood that the Purchase Price paid by Administrative Agent to Seller for each such PennyMac Mortgage Loan does not include a premium that compensates Seller for the Servicing Rights related to such PennyMac Mortgage Loan. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Servicing Rights and the Servicing Records with respect to the PennyMac Mortgage Loans are owned by PennyMac Loan Services, LLC or PennyMac Corp., as applicable.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>6.13.2</u> 2.13 <u>All Transactions are "Servicing Released"</u>. <u>Except as set forth in clause (a) above,</u> Seller's sale of <u>all other</u> Mortgage Loans to Administrative Agent pursuant to Transactions hereunder includes the Servicing Rights related to the Mortgage Loans and all Transactions hereunder are "servicing released<u>servicing-released</u>" purchase and sale transactions for all intents and purposes (other than tax purposes), it being understood that the Purchase Price paid by Administrative Agent to Seller for each such Mortgage Loan includes a premium that compensates Seller for the Servicing Rights related to such Mortgage Loan and upon Administrative Agent's payment of the Purchase Price to Seller, Administrative Agent becomes the owner of the Mortgage Loan which includes the Servicing Rights related thereto.

SECTION 7. <u>YIELD PROTECTION AND TAXES</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1 Increased Costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Increased Costs Generally</u>. If any change in Law shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, Administrative Agent;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) subject Administrative Agent or any Buyer, as applicable, to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of "Excluded Taxes", and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities, or capital attributable thereto; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) impose on Administrative Agent or any Buyer, as applicable, any other condition, cost, or expense (other than Taxes) affecting the Repurchase Documents or Transactions made by Administrative Agent or such Buyer; and

the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase Administrative Agent's or such Buyer's cost of making, continuing, or maintaining any Transaction or of maintaining Administrative Agent's or such Buyer's obligation to enter into any Transaction, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Administrative Agent or such Buyer hereunder or under the Repurchase Documents (whether of Repurchase Price, Price Differential, or any other amount) then, upon Administrative Agent's request, Seller will, at its option, either (x) terminate this Agreement and promptly remit payment of any outstanding Obligations hereunder or (y) pay to Administrative Agent such additional amount(s) as will compensate Administrative Agent or such Buyer for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, <u>provided</u> that Administrative Agent and such Buyer shall treat all similarly situated counterparties in the same manner as Seller.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Capital Requirements</u>. If Administrative Agent determines that any change in Law affecting Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent's lending office, or Administrative Agent's holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Administrative Agent's capital or Administrative Agent's holding company's capital, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Transactions made by Administrative Agent to a level below that which Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent's holding company could have achieved but for such change in Law (taking into consideration Administrative Agent's policies and Administrative Agent's holding company's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Seller will pay to such Administrative Agent such additional amount(s) as will compensate Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Certificates for Reimbursement</u>. A certificate of Administrative Agent setting forth the amount(s) necessary to compensate Administrative Agent or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in <u>Section 3.1(a)</u> or <u>3.1(b)</u> hereof and delivered to Seller, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Seller shall pay Administrative Agent the amount shown as due on any such certificate within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Delay in Requests</u>. Administrative Agent's failure or delay to demand compensation pursuant to this <u>Section 3.1</u> shall not constitute a waiver of Administrative Agent's right to demand such compensation; <u>provided</u> that Seller shall not be required to compensate Administrative Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 3.1</u> for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than three (3) months prior to the date that Administrative Agent notifies Seller of the change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of Administrative Agent's intention to claim compensation therefor (<u>provided</u> that if the change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then such three (3) month period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2 <u>Taxes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Defined Terms</u>. For purposes of this <u>Section 3.2</u>, the term "applicable law" includes FATCA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Payments Free of Taxes</u>. Any and all payments by or on account of any of Seller's obligations under any Repurchase Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in Seller's good faith discretion) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Seller, then Seller shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Entity in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this <u>Section 3.2</u>), Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum that it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Payment of Other Taxes by Seller</u>. Seller shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Entity in accordance with applicable law, or at Administrative Agent's option, timely reimburse Administrative Agent for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Indemnification by Seller</u>. Seller shall indemnify Administrative Agent and each Buyer, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this <u>Section 3.2</u>) payable or paid by Administrative Agent or such Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative Agent or such Buyer and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Entity. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered by Administrative Agent to Seller shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Evidence of Payments</u>. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Seller to a Governmental Entity pursuant to this <u>Section 3.2</u>, Seller shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Entity evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Status of Administrative Agent</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If any Buyer is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Repurchase Document, such Buyer shall cause Administrative Agent to deliver to Seller, at the time(s) reasonably requested by Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Buyer, if Seller reasonably requests, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller as will enable Seller to determine whether or not such Buyer is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two (2) sentences, the completion, execution, and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in <u>Sections 3.2(f)(ii)(A)</u>, <u>(ii)(B)</u>, and <u>(ii)(D</u>) below) shall not be required if, in Administrative Agent's reasonable judgment, such completion, execution, or submission would subject such Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice such Buyer's legal or commercial position.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Seller is a U.S. Person,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) If a Buyer is a U.S. Person, such Buyer shall cause Administrative Agent to deliver on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a Buyer hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon Seller's reasonable request), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Buyer is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) If a Buyer is not a U.S. Person, such Buyer shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, cause Administrative Agent to deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as Seller shall request) on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a Buyer hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon Seller's reasonable request), whichever of the following is applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If a Buyer claims the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, with respect to
(x) payments of interest under any Repurchase Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty, and
(y) any other applicable payments under any Repurchase Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income"
article of such tax treaty;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if a Buyer claims the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Buyer is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of Seller within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "<u>U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate</u>"), and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) to the extent that a Buyer is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) if a Buyer is not a U.S. Person, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, such Buyer shall cause Administrative Agent to deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as Seller shall request) on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a Buyer hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon Seller's reasonable request), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) if a payment made to a Buyer under any Repurchase Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Buyer shall cause Administrative Agent to deliver to Seller at the time(s) prescribed by law and at such time(s) reasonably requested by Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Seller as may be necessary for Seller to comply with Seller's obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Buyer has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this <u>Section 3.2(f)(ii)(D)</u>, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

Each Buyer agrees that if any form or certification that it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Seller in writing of its legal inability to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Treatment of Certain Refunds</u>. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this <u>Section 3.2</u> (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this <u>Section 3.2</u>), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this <u>Section 3.2</u> with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Entity with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this <u>Section 3.2(g)</u> (*plus* any penalties, interest, or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Entity) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Entity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section 3.2(g)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>Section 3.2(g)</u> the payment of which

------

would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This <u>Section 3.2(g)</u> shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Survival</u>. Each party's obligations under this <u>Section 3.2</u> shall survive any assignment of rights by Administrative Agent or a Buyer, as applicable, and the repayment, satisfaction, or discharge of all obligations under any Repurchase Document.

SECTION 8. <u>CONDITIONS OF CLOSING/TRANSACTIONS</u>.

If the related Purchased Mortgage Loans were originated by an Affiliated Originator, Seller shall have delivered to Administrative Agent an Affiliate Pledge Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9. <u>SECURITY; PURCHASED ASSETS PROCESSING AND COLLECTION</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1 <u>Security Interest</u>. Although the parties hereto intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases (other than for accounting and tax purposes) and not loans, if any Transactions are deemed to be loans and, as security for the payment and performance of all Obligations (including, without limitation, all Transactions and credit accommodations extended hereunder), Seller hereby pledges, assigns, and grants to Administrative Agent a continuing first priority security interest in and Lien upon the Purchased Assets (subject only to Permitted Liens), the Operating Account and the Monthly Remittance Account and Administrative Agent shall have all the rights and remedies of a "secured party" under the UCC with respect thereto. Seller acknowledges that it has no rights to the Servicing Rights related to any Purchased Mortgage Loan while subject to a Transaction hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, if any determination is made that the Servicing Rights related to any Purchased Mortgage Loan were not sold by Seller to Administrative Agent, or that the Servicing Rights are not an interest in such Purchased Mortgage Loans and are severable from such Purchased Mortgage Loans despite Administrative Agent's and Seller's express intent herein to treat them as included in the purchase and sale transaction, Seller hereby pledges, assigns, and grants to Administrative Agent a continuing first priority security interest in and Lien upon the Servicing Rights related to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, and Administrative Agent shall have all the rights and remedies of a "secured party" under the UCC with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2 <u>No Asset Sales or Liens</u>. Seller will not sell, assign, transfer, set over to, or grant a Lien to any Person in, or otherwise encumber all or any part of, the Purchased Assets, except with respect to (a) Permitted Liens and (b) the sale of Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS in the ordinary course of business consistent with Seller's past practices and subject to all of the terms and conditions hereof.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.3 <u>Location of Records and Purchased Assets</u>. Seller will keep the Purchased Assets and records pertaining to Purchased Assets with the Custodian and/or Servicer, as applicable, at the location set forth on the signature page hereto, and at any other location described in writing to, and consented to in writing by, Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.4 <u>Status of Purchased Assets</u>. At the time any Purchased Assets become subject to Administrative Agent's Lien, Seller will be the lawful owner thereof and will have the right to pledge, sell, assign, transfer, or grant a security interest in the same to Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.5 <u>Perfection Information</u>. Each of Seller's and Guarantor's correct legal name, jurisdiction of organization, and federal taxpayer identification number are set forth on the applicable signature page hereto. Seller will not change any such name, jurisdiction, or its legal structure without giving at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof to Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.6 <u>Perfection, Third Parties, Further Assurances</u>. Seller authorizes Administrative Agent to file all UCC financing statements, and amendments thereto and continuations thereof, in each case, describing the Purchased Assets necessary to perfect Administrative Agent's security interest hereunder. Where Purchased Assets are in the possession of a third party (other than Custodian), if requested by Administrative Agent, Seller will join with Administrative Agent in notifying such third party of Administrative Agent's security interest and obtaining an acknowledgment from such third party that such third party is holding the Purchased Assets for the benefit of Administrative Agent. Seller will cooperate with Administrative Agent in obtaining control with respect to Purchased Assets consisting of deposit accounts, investment property, letter of credit rights, and electronic chattel paper. Seller agrees to take whatever other actions are reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to perfect and continue the perfection of Administrative Agent's security interest in the Purchased Assets. Upon Administrative Agent's request, Seller will deliver to Administrative Agent any and all of the documents evidencing or constituting the Purchased Assets (including, without limitation, all negotiable documents, instruments, certificated securities, and chattel paper), and Seller will not create any chattel paper without placing thereon a legend indicating that Administrative Agent has a security interest therein. Seller hereby appoints Administrative Agent as its irrevocable attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any documents necessary to perfect or to continue the perfection of the security interest granted herein. To the extent that any Purchased Assets constitutes personal property, the parties hereto intend the Purchased Assets are and will remain personal property even though all or any portion of the Purchased Assets may hereafter become attached or affixed to real property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.7 <u>Termination; Revival</u>. At such time as all Obligations have been paid in full (other than unasserted indemnity claims that survive termination) and this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents have been terminated in writing by Administrative Agent, the security interest granted herein will terminate and at Seller's expense, Administrative Agent will release its security interest in, and will duly assign, transfer, and deliver to Seller such of the Purchased Assets, free of any Liens incurred by or through Administrative Agent, as has not theretofore been

------

sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant hereto. To the extent that Seller makes a payment or other transfer to Administrative Agent, or Administrative Agent receives any payment of proceeds of Purchased Assets, which is later invalidated, declared to be a fraudulent transfer or preference, set aside, or required to be repaid under any bankruptcy law, other law or equitable principle, Administrative Agent's security interest in the Purchased Assets will be revived and continue as if Administrative Agent had never received the payment, transfer, or proceeds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.8 <u>Seller Remains Liable</u>. Seller shall remain liable for the performance of its obligations under the contracts and agreements included in the Purchased Assets to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, and Administrative Agent's exercise of any of its rights with respect to the Purchased Assets or otherwise hereunder shall not release Seller from any of such obligations. Moreover, regardless of Administrative Agent's security interest in the Purchased Assets or Administrative Agent's exercise of (or failure to exercise) any of its rights with respect to any such Purchased Assets, in no event shall Administrative Agent have any obligation or liability under any of such contracts or agreements, and Administrative Agent shall have no obligation or duty to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment with respect to any of the Purchased Assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.9 <u>Security Covenants</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Seller shall comply with, perform, and discharge each and every obligation, covenant, condition, duty, and agreement contained in any applicable Purchase Commitments that are to be performed by Seller.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without Administrative Agent's prior written consent, Seller shall not waive, excuse, condone, forgive, or in any manner release or discharge any party to any agreement with Seller from the obligations, covenants, conditions, or duties contained in any such agreement or amend, modify, or otherwise change, terminate, or assign any agreement or agree to do any of the foregoing, if (in any case) a consequence of doing so could be to materially and adversely affect Seller's condition (financial or otherwise) or to materially and adversely affect the value of any of the Purchased Assets or Administrative Agent's security interest in any of the Purchased Assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) At Seller's sole cost and expense, Seller will promptly and diligently exercise each and every material right that Seller may have under any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and will appear in and defend in good faith any action or proceeding arising under, growing out of, or in any manner connected with Seller's obligations, covenants, conditions, duties, agreements, or liabilities under or in respect of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction shall be closed in accordance with best industry practices and all Applicable Requirements. Seller acknowledges and agrees that it shall be liable to Administrative Agent for any acts or omissions of any Settlement Party that cause Administrative Agent to incur any loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.10 <u>Right to Collect</u>. Except as otherwise set forth below, unless and until the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Seller or its Servicer shall continue to collect all principal, interest, and escrow payments due and to become due under the Purchased Mortgage Loans (and all such amounts shall be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent as the owner of the related Purchased Asset), and may take such action as Seller may deem necessary, advisable, convenient, or proper for the enforcement of such Purchased Mortgage Loans to the extent consistent with Seller's covenants and agreements set forth herein, except that regardless of whether any Event of Default exists, Mortgage Loan Sale Proceeds shall be paid directly to the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account or as Administrative Agent shall otherwise direct, for application as provided herein. Upon receipt of any prepayment on any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall (or shall cause the Servicer to) promptly pay such amount to Administrative Agent for application to repay the Purchase Price made with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan. All prepayments will be remitted to the Monthly Remittance Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt. Immediately upon and at all times after the occurrence of any Event of Default, Seller agrees, upon Administrative Agent's request, to notify all Account Debtors and other parties obligated to Seller under any Purchased Assets that all payments made to Seller on account of the Purchased Assets shall be remitted on each Remittance Date directly to the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account, which amounts shall, at Administrative Agent's option, be applied to the payment of the Obligations, whether then due or not, in such order or at such time of application as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion. At Administrative Agent's request, Seller shall include a like statement on all invoices or other instructions sent by Seller to Account Debtors and other parties obligated to Seller with respect to the Purchased Assets. Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose, or realize upon the Purchased Assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.11 <u>Deposit Account;</u><u>Application of</u> <u>Mortgage Loan Sale Proceeds</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.11.1 Seller agrees to notify all purchasers of Purchased Mortgage Loans that all payments made to Seller of Mortgage Loan Sale Proceeds shall be remitted directly to the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account. Seller shall bear all risk of loss of any cash proceeds deposited in the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account, except for losses resulting from Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Seller shall from time to time execute such depository account documents and agreements with respect to the Deposit Account as Administrative Agent shall require. Any Mortgage Loan Sale Proceeds received by Seller shall (i) at all times be held in trust for and segregated for the benefit of Administrative Agent, (ii) not be commingled with any property that is not part of the Purchased Assets, and (iii) be immediately delivered to Administrative Agent in the form received for deposit to the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.11.2 Provided that no Event of Default or Default is continuing or would result therefrom, Administrative Agent agrees from time to time and at Seller's request to deliver Purchased Mortgage Loans to Takeout Purchasers for sale to such Takeout Purchasers, and, solely with respect to Agency Mortgage Loans and Jumbo Mortgage Loans, such request shall be approved by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. Such delivery shall be made under a bailee letter in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Without limiting the foregoing, such bailee letter shall provide for the release of Administrative Agent's security interest in the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loan in exchange for Administrative Agent's receipt, in immediately available funds, of the purchase price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan pursuant to the applicable Purchase Commitment for such Purchased Mortgage Loan, but in no event less than the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan. To the extent that the

------

purchase price for a Purchased Mortgage Loan would be less than the Repurchase Price required to be paid to Administrative Agent as required above (a "<u>shortfall</u>"), Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion approve such sale and Seller shall pay such shortfall to Administrative Agent prior to or concurrent with the payment of such purchase price and prior to the release of Administrative Agent's ownership interest in the affected Purchased Mortgage Loan. With respect to any eMortgage Loan, following Administrative Agent's or such bailee's confirmation of receipt of related Repurchase Price, Administrative Agent shall initiate a Transfer with respect thereto as Seller may direct in writing. The proceeds from the sale of any Purchased Mortgage Loan under this <u>Section 5.11</u> shall be paid and applied as provided in <u>Section 5.12</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.11.3 Provided that no Event of Default or Default is continuing or would result therefrom, and provided further that Seller, Administrative Agent, and a Certificating Custodian have entered into a Master Custodial Agreement satisfactory to Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent agrees from time to time and at Seller's request to deliver Purchased Mortgage Loans to such Certificating Custodian for formation of a pool of Mortgage Loans supporting an MBS. Such delivery shall be made under a bailee letter in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Seller agrees to (i) enter into such arrangements and agreements with Administrative Agent, the Certificating Custodian, and each applicable Agency as may be necessary or desirable to facilitate the issuance of MBS under the mortgage-backed securities programs of such Agency, and (ii) conform its procedures relating to the formation of such pools and the delivery of such forms and certifications required by each applicable Agency, to accommodate the procedures established by Administrative Agent from time to time with respect thereto that are in conformity with the respective rules and regulations of each applicable Agency and maintaining the perfection and priority of Administrative Agent's security interest in the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans and related MBS and the proceeds thereof. All MBS that are backed by any Purchased Mortgage Loan for which the Repurchase Price has not been paid in full to Administrative Agent at the time of the issuance of such MBS shall be held in the Custodial Account established under the Master Custodial Agreement and Administrative Agent shall have a security interest therein. Seller agrees that the Certificating Custodian shall be listed as the only subscriber, owner, and/or registered holder, as applicable, and only person authorized to take delivery of any MBS backed by any Purchased Mortgage Loan, and upon the issuance of each such MBS, Seller shall deliver, or cause the applicable Agency to deliver, such MBS directly to the Certificating Custodian. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Master Custodial Agreement, upon the issuance of an MBS backed by any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent's ownership interest in the underlying Purchased Mortgage Loans shall cease, and the security interest in the related MBS and the proceeds thereof shall be substituted therefor and vested in Administrative Agent. Provided that no Event of Default or Default exists, Seller may obtain the release of Administrative Agent's security interest in and lien on an MBS backed by any Purchased Mortgage Loan by paying to Administrative Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan. Such payment shall be applied as provided in <u>Section 5.12</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.12 <u>Income Payments</u>. Any Income received with respect to a Purchased Asset purchased hereunder (other than any interest accrued thereon during the period of time up to but not including the Purchase Date for such Purchased Asset), shall be segregated as described above and held in trust for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent as the owner of such Purchased Asset. If any Income is deposited into the Deposit<u>Operating</u> Account, it shall be released only as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon instruction by Administrative Agent;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, on each Remittance Date, applied as follows:

1) *first,* in satisfaction of accrued and outstanding fees and expenses of Administrative Agent incurred in connection with any Transaction, including satisfaction of any Margin Deficit;

2) *second*, in satisfaction of any outstanding Obligations then due and owing with respect to any Purchased Asset; and

3) *third*, any amounts remaining, to Seller.

After the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, all items or amounts which are remitted to the Monthly Remittance Account or the Operating Account or otherwise delivered by or for the benefit of Seller to Administrative Agent on account of partial or full payment of, or with respect to, any Purchased Assets (including, without limitation, any Mortgage Loan Sale Proceeds) shall, at Administrative Agent's option, (i) be applied to the payment of the Obligations, whether then due or not, in such order or at such time of application as Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion, <u>or</u> (ii) with respect to such amounts not already in the Operating Account, be deposited to the Operating Account, as applicable, or (iii) with respect to such amounts not already in the Monthly Remittance Account, be deposited to the Monthly Remittance Account, as applicable. Seller agrees that Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any loss or damage which Seller may suffer as a result of Administrative Agent's processing of items or its exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or under any other Repurchase Document, including, without limitation, indirect, special, or consequential damages, loss of revenues or profits, or any claim, demand, or action by any third party arising out of or in connection with the processing of items or the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or under any other Repurchase Document. Seller agrees to indemnify and hold Administrative Agent harmless from and against all such third-party claims, demands or actions, and all related expenses or liabilities, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, except to the extent (but only to the extent) caused solely by Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.13 <u>Redelivery of Purchased Assets</u>. If Administrative Agent, acting in its sole discretion, redelivers Purchased Assets to Seller or Seller's designee for the purpose of (a) the ultimate sale or exchange thereof; (b) presentation, collection, renewal, or registration of transfer thereof; or (c) dealing with such Purchased Asset(s) preliminary to sale or exchange, including, but not limited to, for correction, in any case, such redelivery shall be in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and shall not constitute a sale to Seller or a release of Administrative Agent's ownership interest in such Purchased Asset(s) or in the proceeds or products of such Purchased Asset(s), unless Administrative Agent specifically so agrees in writing. Any proceeds of Purchased Assets coming into Seller's possession as a result of any such redelivery shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent and immediately delivered to Administrative Agent for

------

application to the Obligations. If Administrative Agent redelivers any Mortgage Documents with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan to Seller under this <u>Section 5.13</u>, Seller shall return such Mortgage Documents to Administrative Agent not more than ten (10) days following the date of delivery to Seller, and if Seller fails to do so within said period, then Seller shall immediately repay the outstanding Repurchase Price with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.14 <u>Interim</u> <u>Servicing</u> <u>Period; No Servicing Fee or Income</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.14.1 If there is a Servicer of the Purchased Mortgage Loans other than Seller, Administrative Agent, or an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, Seller shall enter into a Servicing Agreement and a Servicer Notice with such Servicer on behalf of Administrative Agent, which such Servicing Agreement and Servicer Notice shall be acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole good faith discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.14.2 For each Transaction, Seller's or Servicer's right to interim service a Purchased Mortgage Loan shall commence on the related Purchase Date and shall automatically terminate without notice on the earlier of (i) thirty (30) calendar days after such Purchase Date or (ii) the Repurchase Date. If the interim servicing period expires with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan for any reason other than Seller repurchasing such Purchased Mortgage Loan, then such interim servicing period shall automatically terminate if not renewed by Administrative Agent. In connection with any such renewal, Seller or Servicer shall continue to interim service the Purchased Mortgage Loan for a thirty (30) calendar day extension period. Other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, Administrative Agent shall have no right to terminate Seller or Servicer, as applicable, as the interim servicer other than in connection with a Default or Event of Default. Absent Administrative Agent's agreement to extend or continue to extend the interim servicing period, Seller shall transfer servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loan (which shall include the delivery of all Servicing Records related to such Purchased Mortgage Loan) to Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent's designee in accordance with Administrative Agent's instructions and any other applicable requirements hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, upon expiration of the interim servicing period (including the expiration of any extension period) with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall not have the right to service the related Purchased Mortgage Loan nor shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to extend the interim servicing period (or continue to extend the interim servicing period), it being understood that upon such expiration, Seller shall (and shall cause Servicer to) promptly transfer the servicing of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan to Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent's designee in accordance with Administrative Agent's instructions and any other applicable requirements hereof. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to pay Seller, nor shall Seller have any right to deduct or retain, any servicing fee or similar compensation in connection with the interim servicing of a Purchased Mortgage Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.15 <u>Servicer Notice</u>. As a condition precedent to Administrative Agent funding the Purchase Price for any Purchased Mortgage Loan serviced by a Servicer other than Seller, Administrative Agent, or an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, Seller shall provide to Administrative Agent a Servicer Notice addressed to and agreed to by the Servicer, advising the Servicer of such matters as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including,

------

without limitation, recognition by the Servicer of Administrative Agent's interest in such Purchased Mortgage Loans and ownership of the Servicing Rights related thereto and the Servicer's agreement that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default from Administrative Agent, such Servicer will follow Administrative Agent's instructions with respect to the servicing of the related Purchased Mortgage Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>9.14.1 Seller shall, on behalf of Administrative Agent, service or contract with one or more Servicers to service the Purchased Assets consistent with the degree of skill and care that each Seller customarily requires with respect to similar assets owned or managed by it and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Each Servicer shall (i) comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, (ii) maintain all state and federal licenses necessary for it to perform its servicing responsibilities hereunder and (iii) not impair the rights of Administrative Agent in any Purchased Assets or any payment thereunder. Administrative Agent may terminate the servicing of any Purchased Asset with the then existing servicer in accordance with Section 5.14.4 hereof.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.3 Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the continuation thereof, Administrative Agent will have the right to take immediate possession of the Purchased Assets, and for that purpose Administrative Agent may, so far as Seller can give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which Purchased Assets may be situated and remove the same therefrom. Seller waives demand and notice with respect to and assent to any repossession of Purchased Assets. Administrative Agent may dispose of Purchased Assets in any order and in any manner that Administrative Agent chooses and may refrain from the sale of any real property held as Purchased Assets until the sale of personal property. Except with respect to any Purchased Asset that is perishable, threatens to decline speedily in value, or that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Administrative Agent will give Seller at least five (5) Business Days' prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Purchased Assets or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. Any remaining proceeds of such collection or sale, after satisfying all Obligations in such order of preference as Administrative Agent may determine and making proper allowance for interest on Obligations not then due, if any, will be credited to any deposit account that Seller may maintain with Administrative Agent or, if there is no such account, held pending Seller's instructions. Seller will remain liable for any deficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.4 Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may at any time in its sole discretion (a) transfer any securities or other property constituting Purchased Assets into Administrative Agent's own name or that of Administrative Agent's nominee and receive the income thereon and hold the same as security for Obligations or apply it on amounts due on Obligations, (b) without notice to or demand on Seller, demand and collect Purchased Assets consisting of accounts receivable or instruments as Administrative Agent may

------

determine, and (c) for the purpose of realizing Administrative Agent's rights therein, receive, open, and dispose of mail addressed to Seller and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of title, or other evidences of payment, shipment, or storage or any form of Purchased Assets on behalf of and in the name of Seller. The powers conferred on Administrative Agent by this <u>Section 9</u> are solely to protect Administrative Agent and will not impose any duties on Administrative Agent to exercise any powers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.5 In addition to all other rights and remedies provided hereunder or by law, Administrative Agent will have, in any jurisdiction where enforcement hereof is sought, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.6 Without limiting any of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Administrative Agent may require (i) any mortgagor under any Purchased Mortgage Loan, (ii) any maker of any Mortgage Note, and (iii) any other person obligated on any Mortgage Document or item of Purchased Assets to make payments and deliver other monies with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or other items of Purchased Assets directly to Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deduct reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the realization from such collections, whether administered by Administrative Agent, any Custodian, or other agent for Administrative Agent, and Seller shall be liable for any deficiency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Administrative Agent may retain all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and other items of Purchased Assets in satisfaction of the unpaid Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All cash, proceeds, and instruments received by Seller on account of any Purchase Commitment or as a result of the sale or other disposition of the Purchased Assets, whether received by Seller in the exercise of its collection rights or otherwise, shall be remitted to the Custodian or Administrative Agent, as applicable, in the form received (properly endorsed to the order of the Custodian or Administrative Agent) not later than the Business Day following the day of receipt, to be held as security for (or, at Administrative Agent's option, to be applied toward) the payment of the Obligations. Seller shall not commingle any such collections or proceeds following with any of its other funds or property and shall hold the same under an express trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent until remitted to Administrative Agent or the Custodian.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon the completion of any sale or other disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans or other items of Purchased Assets under this <u>Section 9</u>, full title and right of possession to such Purchased Mortgage Loans and other items of Purchased Assets shall pass to the purchaser of such Purchased Assets; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if Administrative Agent or any such purchaser so requests, Seller shall confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to such purchaser all instruments of conveyance, assignment, and transfer and releases reasonably requested to divest all right, title, and interest of Seller in and to the sold Purchased Assets.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Neither Seller nor anyone claiming through Seller shall claim, seek, or take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, or redemption law in order to prevent, hinder, or delay the enforcement of this Agreement, the foreclosure of the back up security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement, or the absolute sale or other disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans or other items of Purchased Assets. Immediately after such sale or other disposition, the purchaser or Administrative Agent shall be entitled to notify all obligors on the Purchased Assets that Seller's interest in such property has been assigned to such purchaser or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and that all payments on or in respect of such Purchased Assets are to be made directly to such purchaser or Administrative Agent, as applicable, or any other specified person or entity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Seller shall execute any and all documents and provide any information, documents, or records necessary to carry out any of Administrative Agent's remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) No funds received by Administrative Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 9</u> need be segregated in any manner except to the extent required by law, and any such funds may be deposited in a noninterest-bearing account held by Administrative Agent under such general conditions as are permitted under applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) In connection with the exercise of its rights pursuant to this <u>Section 9</u>, Administrative Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose, or realize upon the Purchased Mortgage Loans or other items of Purchased Assets, in its own name or in Seller's name, as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may determine; <u>provided</u> that Administrative Agent shall not be liable for (i) the failure to collect any payment of interest or principal on any Purchased Mortgage Loan, (ii) the failure to enforce any contract right, or (iii) any act or omission (other than Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct) in connection with the collection of any payment of interest or principal on any Purchased Mortgage Loan or the enforcement of any contract right.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) It shall be deemed commercially reasonable if Administrative Agent proceeds in the manner described in this <u>Section 9</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that such procedures are not intended to be the only commercially reasonable method in which Administrative Agent may exercise its remedies, and Administrative Agent may proceed in any other commercially reasonable manner permitted under applicable law.

SECTION 14. <u>SET-OFF</u>.

Seller hereby grants to Administrative Agent a continuing lien, security interest, and right of setoff as security for all of the Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral, and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping, or control of Administrative Agent or any of Administrative Agent's Affiliates (and their respective successors and assigns) or in transit to any of them. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Seller), Administrative Agent may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any of the Obligations even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations.

------

ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL THAT SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS, OR OTHER PROPERTY OF SELLER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

SECTION 15. <u>GENERAL</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.1 <u>Power of Attorney</u>. Seller hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Purchased Assets without Seller's signature thereon as Administrative Agent, at its option, may deem appropriate. Following the continuation of an Event of Default, Seller hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Seller's attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statement(s) in Seller's name and to perform all other acts which Administrative Agent deems appropriate to perfect and continue Administrative Agent's ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve, and realize upon the Purchased Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, providing "good-bye" letters to the mortgagor, sign assignments on behalf of Seller as its attorney-in-fact, and sell any Purchased Assets "as is where is" in the name and on behalf of Seller. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest, is given as security, and is irrevocable without Administrative Agent's consent. At Administrative Agent's request, Seller shall immediately execute all powers of attorney in favor of Administrative Agent in the form set forth on <u>Exhibit E</u> hereto. In addition, Seller shall direct by board resolution that, pursuant to its execution and delivery of such a power of attorney, certain personnel of Administrative Agent may take certain actions on behalf of Seller as its attorney-in-fact, with such resolution to survive until all of Seller's Obligations hereunder are satisfied. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement(s) prepared pursuant to this <u>Section 11.1</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.2 <u>Written Notices</u>. Any notices expressly required or permitted by this Agreement will be in writing (including, without limitation, by electronic mail, telecopy, or other electronic delivery), and will be deemed to have been given when delivered by hand, when sent by facsimile, one (1) Business Day after delivery to any national overnight delivery service (delivery charges prepaid), or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail (postage prepaid, certified and return receipt requested), and all such communications given by electronic mail, telecopy, or other electronic delivery shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by electronic mail, telecopy, or other electronic delivery, and addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth on the signature pages hereto or, in either case, to such other address as a party may designate in a written notice to the other party given in accordance with this <u>Section 11.2</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3 <u>Term of Agreement</u>. This Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents will continue in force and effect until the later of (i) such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full (other than unasserted indemnity claims that survive termination) and no further credit can be extended to Seller under this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document and (ii) the Facility Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of <u>Sections 5.7</u>, <u>11.6</u>, <u>11.7</u>, and <u>11.19</u> shall survive termination of the Repurchase Documents and the payment in full of the Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.4 <u>No Waivers</u>. No failure or delay by Administrative Agent in exercising any right, power, or privilege hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof; nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise provided by law.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.5 <u>Further Assurances</u>. Seller will do, make, execute, and deliver all such additional and further acts, things, assurances, and instruments as Administrative Agent may require more completely to vest in and assure to Administrative Agent its rights hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents, and in the Purchased Assets, and to carry into effect the provisions and intent of this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.6 <u>Governing Law; Jurisdiction.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent's obligations hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Administrative Agent. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY SUBMITS TO, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THEY MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION WHATSOEVER INVOLVING ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY, ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES, WHETHER SUCH WAIVED DAMAGES ARE BASED ON STATUTE, CONTRACT, TORT, COMMON LAW, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES WAS KNOWN AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OF ACTION. NO INDEMNIFIED PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE BY UNINTENDED RECIPIENTS OF ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER MATERIALS DISTRIBUTED BY IT THROUGH TELECOMMUNICATIONS.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE WAIVERS IN THIS <u>SECTION 11.6</u> ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT SUCH PARTY HAS ALREADY RELIED ON SUCH WAIVERS IN ENTERING INTO THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS, AND THAT SUCH PARTY WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON SUCH WAIVERS IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS UNDER THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS <u>SECTION 11.6</u> SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS AND THE PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE OBLIGATIONS.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.7 <u>Indemnification</u>. Seller hereby absolutely and unconditionally indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (and the directors, officers, employees, and agents of Administrative Agent or its Affiliates) (each, an "<u>Indemnitee</u>") harmless against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, causes of action, damages, losses, settlement payments, obligations, costs, expenses, and all other liabilities whatsoever that will at any time(s) be incurred or sustained by an Indemnitee (except any of the foregoing incurred or sustained as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnitee) on account of, or in relation to, or in any way in connection with, associated with or ancillary to this Agreement, the other Repurchase Documents, and the other documents executed or delivered in connection herewith, and the arrangements or transactions contemplated therein, whether or not all or any of the transactions contemplated by, associated with or ancillary to this Agreement or any of such documents are ultimately consummated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.8 <u>Amendments, Waivers, Etc</u>. This Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, and any provisions hereof or thereof, may be waived only by an instrument in writing signed by Administrative Agent and may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.9 <u>Binding Effect of Agreement; Assignment</u>. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. The foregoing shall not authorize any assignment by Seller of its rights or duties hereunder, and, except as otherwise provided herein, no such assignment shall be made (or be effective) without Administrative Agent's prior written approval. Administrative Agent may sell, assign, participate, or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its right, title, and interest in, and its obligations under, this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents to any Person upon notice to but without consent from Seller. With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent, each Buyer may sell, assign, participate or otherwise transfer its right, title and interest in, and its obligations under, this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents at any time without the consent of any other Person; <u>provided</u> that in the case of a participation, (i) such Buyer's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Administrative Agent in connection with such Buyer's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents. Administrative Agent and each Buyer may disclose to prospective assignees, purchasers, participants, or transferees and their agents and attorneys, any financial or other information in Administrative Agent's and such Buyer's possession regarding Seller; <u>provided</u> that Administrative Agent and such Buyer will require such information to be maintained as confidential by any proposed assignee, purchaser, participant, or

------

transferee subject to <u>Section 11.19</u> hereof. In connection with any such sale, assignment, or transfer, Seller will execute and deliver, and cause Seller's Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, such documents, instruments, and agreements as Administrative Agent, such Buyer or its proposed assignee may reasonably request to affect such sale, assignment, or transfer. Administrative Agent or such Buyer will be released from its obligations hereunder and any obligations incurred by its successor in interest to the extent of such sale, assignment, or transfer. Seller may not sell, assign, or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register on which it will record each Buyer's rights hereunder, and each assignment and participation. Such register shall include the names and addresses of each Buyer (including all assignees, successors and participants) and the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned to such Buyer. The entries in this register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Person whose name is recorded in the register pursuant to the terms hereof shall be treated as a Buyer hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, and failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller's obligations in respect of such rights. If a Buyer sells a participation in its rights hereunder, it shall provide the Administrative Agent, and maintain the information described in this paragraph with respect to the register and permit the Administrative Agent to review such information as reasonably needed for the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable requirement of law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.10 <u>Computation of Interest and Fees, Payments, etc</u>. Price Differential, fees, and charges will be computed daily on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and will be paid for the actual number of days for which due. If the due date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law, interest will be payable for such extended time. If any payment required by this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension will be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. All payments required of Seller hereunder will be made by Seller to Administrative Agent at the address specified for payment in Administrative Agent's invoices to Seller (or at such other place as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify in writing) in lawful money of the United States of America in federal or other funds immediately available to the recipient thereof at the prescribed place of payment and without counterclaim or setoff.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.11 <u>Interest Limitations</u>. If, at any time, the rate of interest together with all amounts that constitute interest and that are reserved, charged, or taken by Administrative Agent as compensation for fees, services, or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating, or collection of the Obligations, is deemed by any competent court of law, governmental agency, or tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by Administrative Agent to Seller under applicable law, then, during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted will be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal of the Obligations, to be applied as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion. As used herein, "applicable law" means the law in effect from time to time; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, in the event that there is a change in the law that results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement and the Transactions will be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.12 <u>No Marshalling</u>. Seller, on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors and assigns, hereby expressly waives all rights, if any, to require a marshalling of assets by Administrative Agent or to require that Administrative Agent first resort to some or any portion of the Purchased Assets before foreclosing upon, selling, or otherwise realizing on any other portion thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.13 <u>**Table of Contents** and Section Headings</u>. The table of contents and the Section and subsection headings herein are intended for convenience only and shall be ignored in construing this Agreement.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "<u>Act</u>"), Administrative Agent hereby notifies Seller that, pursuant to the Act's requirements, Administrative Agent is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies Seller, which such information includes Seller's name, address, and other information that will allow Administrative Agent to identify Seller in accordance with the Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.15 <u>Replacement Documents</u>. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Administrative Agent as to the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of any of the Repurchase Documents, and a written undertaking from Administrative Agent to indemnify Seller from all claims, damages, and expenses incurred by Seller as a result of such loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation, in form reasonably satisfactory to Seller, Seller will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement therefor, in the same principal amount thereof (if applicable) and otherwise of like tenor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.16 <u>Entire Agreement; Miscellaneous</u>. This Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, including the exhibits hereto and thereto, set forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations, and warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee, or representative of any party hereto. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any of these provisions will be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable under a particular circumstance, such holding will not affect or impair such provisions under different circumstances or any other provision hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.17 <u>Federal Reserve</u>. Administrative Agent may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents to any of the twelve (12) Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. § 341, or any Federal House Loan Bank; <u>provided</u> that no such pledge or assignment or enforcement thereof will release Administrative Agent from its obligations under any of the Repurchase Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.18 <u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.22.2 the security interest pledge in <u>Section 5.1</u> hereof constitutes "<u>a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement</u>" that is "related to" this Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v), and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.22.3 each Purchased Mortgage Loan constitutes either a "mortgage loan" or "an interest in a mortgage" as such terms are used in the Bankruptcy Code;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.22.8 Administrative Agent's right to set-off claims and appropriate and apply any and all deposits of money or property or any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by Administrative Agent to or for the credit of the account of any Affiliate against and on account of Seller's obligations and liabilities pursuant to <u>Section 10</u> hereof is a contractual right as described in Sections 553 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code; and

<u>EXHIBIT D</u> 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

<u>Representations and Warranties Concerning Purchased Mortgage Loans</u>. Seller represents and warrants to and covenants with Administrative Agent that the following are true and correct with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan as of the related Purchase Date through and until the date on which such Purchased Mortgage Loan is repurchased by Seller. With respect to those representations and warranties which are made to the best of Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by Seller or Administrative Agent that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate, notwithstanding Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty.

(a) <u>Eligible Mortgage Loan</u>. The Mortgage Loan is an Eligible Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is a legal,
valid, and binding obligation of the Mortgagor thereunder, enforceable in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, and/or laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors and general
equitable principles and subject to no offset, defense, or counterclaim, obligating Mortgagor to make the payments specified therein.

(b) <u>Origination and Servicing</u>. With respect to an Agency Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan was originated by
or in conjunction with a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of HUD pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company, or similar banking
institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority. The Mortgage Loan has been originated and serviced in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable Agency or Governmental Entity and Insurer requirements, and
all applicable federal, state, and local statutes, regulations, and rules, including, without limitation, the federal Truth-in-Lending Act of 1968, as amended, and Regulation Z thereunder, the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, the federal Equal
Credit Opportunity Act, the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974, as amended, and Regulation X thereunder, and all applicable usury, licensing, real property, consumer protection, and other laws.

(c) <u>Compliance with Applicable Laws</u>. Any and all material requirements of any applicable federal, state, or
local law including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity, or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with, the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations, and Seller shall maintain or shall cause its agent to maintain in its possession, to the extent required by law, available for Administrative
Agent's inspection, and shall deliver to Administrative Agent, upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such requirements.

Exhibit D-1

------

(d) <u>Validity of Mortgage Documents</u>. Except with respect to Non-Agency Mortgage Loans and Business Purpose
Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan is evidenced by instruments acceptable to the applicable Agency or Governmental Entity, as applicable, given the type of Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Documents and any other agreement executed and delivered by a
Mortgagor or guarantor, as applicable, in connection with a Mortgage Loan, and all signatures thereon, are genuine, and each such document is the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except as may be limited by bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally, and there are no rights of rescission, set-offs, counterclaims, or other defenses with respect thereto. All parties to the Mortgage
Documents and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor or guarantor, as applicable, had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver any such instrument or agreement and such instrument or agreement has
been duly and properly executed by such related parties. Seller has reviewed all of the documents constituting the Mortgage Document and has made such inquiries as it deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set forth
herein. To the best of Seller's knowledge, except as disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing, the originator complied with all IRS requirements regarding the obtainment of taxpayer identification numbers and the taxpayer identification
numbers submitted by the originator to the Seller are correct.

(e) <u>No Outstanding Charges</u>. All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer, and
municipal charges, leasehold payments, or ground rents, in each case, which previously became due and owing have been paid or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which
has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. Neither Seller nor any originator from which Seller acquired the Mortgage Loan has advanced funds, or induced, solicited, or knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the
Mortgagor or a third-party with respect to amounts to be taken from escrow accounts and any shortfall thereof which may be remitted by the originator, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by the Mortgage Loan.

(f) <u>Private Mortgage Insurance</u>. Except with respect to Non-Agency Mortgage Loans and Business Purpose
Mortgage Loans, (i) to the extent required by an Agency, if applicable, each Mortgage Loan is insured by a policy of private mortgage insurance in the amount required by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, or Freddie Mac, as applicable, or an Insurer, and
(ii) all provisions of any such private mortgage insurance policy have been and are being complied with, such policy is in full force and effect and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. To Seller's knowledge, there are no defenses,
counterclaims, or rights of setoff affecting the Mortgage Loan or affecting the validity or enforceability of any private mortgage insurance applicable to such Mortgage Loan.

(g) <u>Original Terms Unmodified</u>. The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived,
altered, or modified in any respect after the date of origination, except by a written instrument recorded, if necessary, to protect Administrative Agent's interests, and which has been delivered to a Custodian; <u>provided</u> that none of
the payment terms, interest rate, maturity date, or other material terms have been impaired, waived, altered, or modified in any respect. The substance of any such waiver, alteration, or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the
extent required. No Mortgagor with respect to the Mortgage Loan has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption
agreement is part of the Mortgage Document delivered to Custodian.

Exhibit D-2

------

(h) <u>No Defenses</u>. (i) The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim, or defense, including, without limitation, the defense of usury; (ii) none of the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or the exercise of any right thereunder will not render either the Mortgage Note
or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim, or defense has been asserted with respect thereto; (iii) to Seller's knowledge, no Mortgagor with respect to the Mortgage Loan was
in bankruptcy or insolvent at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated; and (iv) Seller has no knowledge, nor has it received any notice, that any Mortgagor with respect to the Mortgage Loan is in bankruptcy or insolvent.

(i) <u>No Satisfaction of Mortgage</u>. (i) The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated, or
rescinded, in whole or in part; (ii) the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part; (iii) no instrument has been executed that would affect any such release, cancellation, subordination, or
rescission; Seller has not waived the Mortgagor's performance any action if the Mortgagor's failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default; and Seller has not waived any default resulting from any action or
inaction by the Mortgagor.

(j) <u>No Defaults</u>. There is no default, breach, violation, or event of acceleration existing under the
Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note. To Seller's knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation, or event of
acceleration. Neither Seller nor, to Seller's knowledge, Seller's predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation, or event of acceleration.

(k) <u>No Waiver</u>. The terms of the Mortgage Loan have not been waived, impaired, changed, or modified except to
the extent that such amendment or modification has been disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing; <u>provided</u> that none of the payment terms, interest rate, maturity date, or other material terms have been impaired, waived, altered, or
modified in any respect.

(l) <u>Customary Provisions</u>. The Mortgage Note has a stated maturity. The Mortgage contains customary and
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby. There is no homestead or other exemption or other
right available to the Mortgagor or any other person, or restriction on Seller or any other person, including, without limitation, any federal, state, or local law, ordinance, decree, regulation, guidance, attorney general action, or other
pronouncement, whether temporary or permanent in nature, that would interfere with, restrict, or delay either (x) the ability of Seller, Administrative Agent, any Servicer, subservicer, successor servicer, or successor subservicer to sell the
related Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or otherwise, or (y) the ability of Seller, Administrative Agent, any Servicer, or successor servicer to foreclose on the related Mortgage. Except with respect to Business Purpose Mortgage
Loans and Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to VA, Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, HUD, USDA, and RHS, as applicable. If the Mortgage Loan is an eMortgage Loan, the related eNote contains the
Agency-Required eNote Legend.

Cooperative Project, or (iii) such other dwelling(s) conforming with the applicable Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac requirements regarding such dwellings or conforming to the Acquisition Guidelines acceptable to Administrative Agent in

appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property. To Seller's knowledge, no
improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning and building law, ordinance, or regulation. If the Mortgage Loan is an eMortgage Loan, the related eNote contains the Agency-Required eNote
Legend.

(o) <u>Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property</u>. If the Mortgaged Property is occupied as of the Purchase Date, the

agreed by the parties in writing. All costs, fees, and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid. The Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage. Except with respect to any Construction Mortgage Loan, Fix and Flip Mortgage Loan, or Reverse Mortgage Loan, there is no requirement for future advances under such Mortgage Loan and any and all requirements as to completion of any

pools).

Exhibit D-4

------

(q) <u>Ownership</u>. Seller owns and has full right to sell the Mortgage Loan to Administrative Agent free and
clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim, or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell each Mortgage Loan
pursuant to this Agreement and following the sale of each Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent will own such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim, or security interest except any
such security interest created pursuant to the terms hereof.

(r) <u>Doing Business</u>. All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee,
assignee, pledgee, or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (i) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is
located and (ii) either (A) organized under the laws of such state, (B) qualified to do business in such state, (C) a federal savings and loan association, a savings bank, or a national bank having a principal office in such
state, or (D) not doing business in such state.

(s) <u>Hazard Insurance</u>. The Mortgaged Property is covered by a policy of hazard insurance and insurance
against other insurable risks and hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located and for mortgage loans similar to the related Mortgage Loan (including a builder's risk insurance policy, where applicable) or as
required by the applicable Agency or Governmental Entity and in accordance with the Acquisition Guidelines and the Agency Guides, as applicable, in an amount not less than the greatest of (i) the lesser of 100% of the insurable value of the
Mortgaged Property and the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property or such maximum lesser amount as permitted
by the applicable Agency or Governmental Entity and applicable law, all in a form usual and customary in the industry and that is in full force and effect, and all amounts required to have been paid under any such policy have been paid. If any
portion of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance is available, a flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines
of the Federal Emergency Management Agency is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (2) the full
insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1974. All such insurance policies (collectively, the
" <u>hazard insurance policy</u> ") contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller and Seller's successors and assigns (including, without limitation, subsequent owners of the Mortgage Loan), as mortgagee, and may not be reduced,
terminated, or canceled without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the mortgagee. Seller has not received any such notice. All premiums on such insurance policy have been paid. The related Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to
maintain all such

Exhibit D-5

------

insurance and, upon such Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of any Mortgagor having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback, or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained, or realized by any attorney, firm, or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained, or realized by Seller.

(t) <u>Title Insurance</u>. A valid and enforceable title insurance policy has been issued or a commitment to issue
such title insurance policy has been obtained for the Mortgage Loan in an amount not less than the Mortgage Note amount of such Mortgage Loan, which title insurance policy insures that the Mortgage relating thereto is a valid first lien (with
respect to any Mortgage other than a Second Mortgage Loan) or second lien (with respect to any Second Mortgage Loan) on the property therein described and that the Mortgaged Property is free and clear of all encumbrances and liens having priority
over the first lien of the Mortgage and otherwise in compliance with the requirements of the applicable Agency or Governmental Entity. Seller and its successors and assigns are the sole insureds of such title insurance policy, and such title
insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such title insurance policy, and no prior holder,
servicer, or subservicer of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such title insurance policy, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback, or other
unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained, or realized by any attorney, firm, or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(u) <u>No Fraud</u>. To Seller's knowledge, no error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence, fraud, or
similar occurrence has taken place with respect to the Mortgage Loan on the part of any Person, including, without limitation, the Mortgagor, any appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party involved in the origination of the Mortgage
Loan or in the application of any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan.

(v) <u>Compliance with Guidelines</u>. The Mortgage Loan was originated in compliance with and remains in
compliance with the Acquisition Guidelines in effect at the time of such Mortgage Loan's acquisition. If applicable and to the extent required by an Agency, each Mortgage Loan was originated in compliance with the applicable Agency Guide and
remains in compliance with the applicable Agency Guides.

(w) <u>Due-On-Sale</u>. The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the
unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the related mortgagee's prior written consent.

Exhibit D-6

------

(x) <u>No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests</u>. Except as required by an Agency,
the Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which monthly payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by Seller, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, nor does it contain
any other similar provisions which may constitute a "buydown" provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature.

(y) <u>Consolidation of Future Advances</u>. Except with respect to adjustable-rate mortgage loans, any future
advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the Purchase Date have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term.
The lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first lien (or, with respect to any Second Mortgage Loan, second lien) priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the
mortgagee's consolidated interest, or, if applicable, by other title evidence acceptable to the applicable Agency. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.

accordance with the Fannie Mae guidelines in effect at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan through Fannie Mae's appraisal waiver program. Each Freddie Mac ACE Loan received an appraisal waiver from Freddie Mac in accordance with
the Freddie Mac Guidelines in effect at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan through Freddie Mac's Automated Collateral Evaluation (ACE) program. Except with respect to any Fannie Mae DU Appraisal Waiver Loan and any Freddie Mac
ACE Loan (unless the applicable Agency withdrew the related appraisal waiver), a FIRREA-compliant full appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property was conducted and executed prior to the funding of the Mortgage Loan by a qualified appraiser in
accordance with the Acquisition Guidelines, who had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan,
and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the relevant Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, or Freddie Mac guidelines, as applicable, each as amended and as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated.

(cc) <u>Disclosure Materials</u>. The Mortgagor has executed a statement, to the extent required by applicable law,
to the effect that the Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by applicable law with respect to the making of adjustable-rate mortgage loans, and Seller maintains such statement in the Mortgage Documents.

implementing the Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994, as amended (" <u>HOEPA</u> "), (b) a "high cost" mortgage loan, "covered" mortgage loan, "high risk home" mortgage loan, or

providing for heightened regulatory scrutiny or assignee liability to holders of such mortgage loans, or (d) a High Cost Loan or Covered Loan, as applicable (as such terms are defined in the current Standard & Poor's LEVELS<sup>®</sup> Glossary Revised, Appendix E).

adversely affect the Mortgage Loan or Administrative Agent's ownership and/or security interest granted by Seller in the Mortgage Loan as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

(oo) <u>Acceptable Investment</u>. To Seller's knowledge, no specific circumstances or conditions exist with

Mortgage Loan in comparison to similar Mortgage Loans.

(pp) <u>MERS Loans</u>. With respect to each Mortgage Loan registered with MERS, a MERS has assigned a mortgage

(ss) <u>Mandatory Arbitration</u>. No Mortgage Loan that was originated on or after October 31, 2004, is
subject to mandatory arbitration.

(tt) <u>Mortgage Loan Products</u>. No Mortgagor was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan product
offered by the originator of the Mortgage Loan which is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy Mortgagors, unless at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan, such Mortgagor did not qualify, taking into account credit history
and debt to income ratios, for a lower cost credit product then offered by the originator of the Mortgage Loan or any affiliate of the originator of such Mortgage Loan. If, at the time of Mortgage Loan application, the Mortgagor may have qualified
for a lower cost credit product than offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of the originator of the Mortgage Loan, such originator referred the Mortgagor's application to such affiliate for underwriting consideration.

Exhibit D-9

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) With respect to each Qualified Mortgage, prior to the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the related originator
made a reasonable and good faith determination that the related Mortgagor would have a reasonable ability to repay such Mortgage Loan according to its terms, in accordance with, at a minimum, the eight (8) underwriting factors set forth in 12
C.F.R. § 1026.43(c)(2); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Such Mortgage Loan is supported by documentation that evidences compliance with the Ability to Repay Rule and
the QM Rule.

(ww) <u>Ability to Repay Determination</u>. Except with respect to any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan or Business Purpose
Mortgage Loan, there is no action, suit, or proceeding instituted by or against or threatened against Seller in any federal or state court or before any commission or other regulatory body (federal, state, local, foreign, or domestic) that questions
or challenges the compliance of such Mortgage Loan (or the related underwriting) with, the Ability to Repay Rule or the QM Rule.

(xx) <u>TRID Compliance</u>. To the extent applicable and except with respect to any Business Purpose Mortgage Loan,

statement, continuation statement, or other governmental filing or recordation necessary to create or preserve the perfection and priority of the first priority lien (or, with respect to any Second Mortgage Loan, second lien) and security interest
in the Cooperative Shares and Proprietary Lease has been timely and properly made. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage, or equivalent document related to the Cooperative Mortgage Loan and delivered to Seller or its designee establishes in
Seller a valid and subsisting perfected first lien (or, with respect to any Second Mortgage Loan, second lien) on and security interest in the Mortgaged Property described therein, and Seller has full right to sell and assign the same.

(aaa) <u>Cooperative Assignment</u>. With respect to each Cooperative Mortgage Loan, each acceptance of assignment
and assumption of lease agreement contains enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization of the benefits of the security provided thereby. The acceptance of assignment and
