ARTICLE II
THE FORTY-FIRST SERIES
Section 2.01.    Bonds of the Forty-first Series.
There shall be a series of bonds designated 4.52% Series due December 1, 2038 (herein sometimes referred to as the “Forty-first Series”), each of which shall also bear the descriptive title “First Mortgage Bond” as permitted by Section 2.01 of the Original Indenture.  The form of bonds of the Forty-first Series shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.  Bonds of the Forty-first Series (which shall be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $55,000,000) shall mature on December 1, 2038 and shall be issued only as fully registered bonds in denominations of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) and in any integral multiple of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) in excess thereof.  Bonds of the Forty-first Series shall bear interest at the rate of four and fifty-two one hundredths per centum (4.52%) per annum (except as hereinafter provided), payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, and at maturity or earlier redemption, the first interest payment to be made on June 1, 2019 for the period from the date of original issuance of the bonds of the Forty-first Series to, but not including, June 1, 2019; unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the registered owner of any bonds of the Forty-first Series registered in the name of such registered owner, the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on each said bond to be payable at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, payable in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.  Unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the registered owner of any bonds of the Forty-first Series registered in the name of such registered owner, interest on bonds of the Forty-first Series may, at the option of the Company, be paid by check mailed to the registered owners thereof.  Overdue principal and overdue interest in respect of the bonds of the Forty-first Series shall bear interest (before and after judgment) at the rate of five and fifty-two one hundredths per centum (5.52%) per annum (to the extent that payment of such interest on any overdue interest is not prohibited under applicable law).  Interest on the bonds of the Forty-first Series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30 -day months.  Interest on the bonds of the Forty-first Series in respect of a portion of a month shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed using a 30-day month. In any case where any interest payment date, redemption date or maturity of any bond of the Forty-first 

9

Series shall not be a Business Day, then payment of interest or principal need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect, and in the same amount, as if made on the corresponding interest payment date or redemption date, or at maturity, as the case may be, and, if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such interest payment date, redemption date or maturity, as the case may be, to such Business Day. 
All references in the Indenture to the principal amount of bonds shall, when used with respect to the bonds of the Forty-first Series, mean the unpaid principal amount thereof, except that, (a) for the purposes of transfers of fully registered bonds under Section 2.06 of the Original Indenture, the term “like principal amount” shall, when used with respect to the bonds of the Forty-first Series, mean “like aggregate unpaid principal amount”, and (b) for the purposes of exchanges of temporary bonds under Section 2.08 of the Original Indenture, the term “like aggregate principal amount” shall, when used with respect to the bonds of the Forty-first Series, mean “like aggregate unpaid principal amount”. 
The Company reserves the right to establish at any time, by Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, a form of coupon bond, and of appurtenant coupons, for the bonds of the Forty-first Series and to provide for exchangeability of such coupon bonds with the bonds of said Series issued hereunder in fully registered form and to make all appropriate provisions for such purpose.
Section 2.02.    Optional Redemption of Bonds of the Forty-first Series.
(a)        The bonds of the Forty-first Series shall be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, upon notice mailed not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for redemption, at any time prior to September 1, 2038 (three months prior to the maturity date of the bonds of the Forty-first Series), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the redemption date with respect to such principal amount.  Each such notice shall specify such redemption date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the bonds of the Forty-first Series to be redeemed on such redemption date, the principal amount of each bond of the Forty-first Series held by such holder to be redeemed, and the interest to be paid on such redemption date with respect to such principal amount being redeemed, and shall set forth a calculation showing in reasonable detail the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such redemption (calculated as if the date of such notice were the redemption date).  Not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to such redemption, the Company shall deliver to each holder of bonds of the Forty-first Series a written calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified redemption date.
As used herein, the following defined terms shall have the respective meanings specified unless the context clearly requires otherwise:
The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any bond of the Forty-first Series, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining 

10

Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such bond of the Forty-first Series over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero.  
“Called Principal” means, with respect to any bond of the Forty-first Series, the principal of such bond of the Forty-first Series that is to be redeemed pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.02.
“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any bond of the Forty-first Series, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on a semiannual basis) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.
“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any bond of the Forty-first Series, the sum of (a) 0.50% plus (b) the yield to maturity implied by the “Ask Yield(s)” reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.  If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (i) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (ii) interpolating linearly between the “Ask Yields” Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.  The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable bond of the Forty-first Series.  
If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any bond of the Forty-first Series, the sum of (x) 0.50% plus (y) the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.  If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life.  The Reinvestment Yield shall be 

11

rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable bond of the Forty-first Series.
“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any bond of the Forty-first Series, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the bonds of the Forty-first Series, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.02.
“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any bond of the Forty-first Series, the date on which such Called Principal is to be redeemed pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.02.
(b)        The bonds of the Forty-first Series shall also be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, on not less than thirty (30) days’ nor more than sixty (60) days’ notice prior to the date fixed for redemption, at any time on or after September 1, 2038, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the bonds of the Forty-first Series being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, such redemption date.
(c)        In the case of each partial redemption of the bonds of the Forty-first Series pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this section, the principal amount of the bonds of the Forty-first Series to be redeemed shall be allocated by the Company among all of the bonds of the Forty-first Series at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for redemption.
(d)        In the case of each notice of redemption of bonds of the Forty-first Series pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this section, if cash sufficient to pay the principal amount to be redeemed on the Settlement Date (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any, is not paid as agreed upon by the Company and each registered owner of the affected bonds of the Forty-first Series, or, to the extent that there is no such agreement entered into with one or more such owners, deposited with the Trustee on or before the Settlement Date, then such notice of redemption shall be of no effect.  If such cash is so paid or deposited, such principal amount of the bonds of the Forty-first Series shall be deemed paid for all purposes and interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue.  In case the Company pays any registered owner pursuant 

12

to an agreement with that registered owner, whether in the case of redemption or at maturity or otherwise, the Company shall notify the Trustee as promptly as practicable of such agreement and payment, and shall furnish the Trustee with a copy of such agreement and evidence of such payment, which may include a confirmation of wire transfer or other credit to an account designated by the registered owner, cancelled check or a receipt signed by the registered owner; in case the Company deposits any cash with the Trustee, the Company shall provide therewith a list of the registered owners and the amount of such cash each registered owner is to receive.  The Trustee shall be under no duty to inquire into, may conclusively presume the correctness of, and shall be fully protected in relying upon the information set forth in any such notice, evidence of payment, list or agreement, and shall not be chargeable with knowledge of any of the contents of any such agreement.  Any bond of the Forty-first Series redeemed in full shall be surrendered to the Company or the Trustee for cancellation on or before the Settlement Date (unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the registered owner) or, with respect to cash deposited with the Trustee, before payment of such cash by the Trustee; any bond of the Forty-first Series redeemed in part shall be surrendered to the Company or the Trustee on or before the Settlement Date (unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the registered owner) or, with respect to cash deposited with the Trustee before payment of such cash by the Trustee, for a substitute bond in the principal amount remaining unpaid.
Section 2.03.    Transfer and Exchange.
(a)        At the option of the registered owner, any bonds of the Forty-first Series, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, shall be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other authorized denominations.
(b)        Bonds of the Forty-first Series shall be transferable, upon the surrender thereof for cancellation, together with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the registrar duly executed by the registered owner or by his or her duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York.
(c)        Upon any such exchange or transfer of bonds of the Forty-first Series, the Company may make a charge therefor sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge, as provided in Section 2.05 of the Original Indenture, but the Company hereby waives any right to make a charge in addition thereto for any such exchange or transfer of bonds of the Forty-first Series.
Section 2.04.    Dating of Bonds and Interest Payments.
(a)        Each bond of the Forty-first Series shall be dated as of the date of authentication and shall bear interest from the last preceding interest payment date to which interest shall have been paid (unless the date of such bond is an interest payment date to which interest is paid, in which case from the date of such bond); provided that each bond of the Forty-first Series dated prior to June 1, 2019, shall bear interest from the date of original issuance; and provided, further, that if any bond of the Forty-first Series shall be authenticated and delivered 

13

upon a transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, any other bond or bonds of the Forty-first Series upon which interest is in default, it shall be dated so that such bond shall bear interest from the last preceding date to which interest shall have been paid on the bond or bonds in respect of which such bond shall have been delivered or from its date of original issuance, if no interest shall have been paid on the bonds of the Forty-first Series.
(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, bonds of the Forty-first Series shall be dated so that the Person in whose name any bond of the Forty-first Series is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth day immediately preceding an interest payment date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on the interest payment date, except if, and to the extent that, the Company shall have defaulted in the payment of the interest due on such interest payment date, in which case such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names Outstanding bonds of the Forty-first Series are registered at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest.  Any bond of the Forty-first Series issued upon any transfer or exchange subsequent to such close of business and prior to such interest payment date shall bear interest from such interest payment date.  In the event there shall be more than one registered owner of bonds of the Forty-first Series, then the Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of bonds of said series for a period of fifteen (15) days immediately preceding any interest payment date of said series.
Section 2.05.    Release of Company upon Conveyance or Other Transfer.
In case the Company, as permitted by Section 15.01 of the Indenture, shall convey or transfer, subject to the Lien of the Indenture, all or substantially all of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety to a successor, the indenture described in Section 15.02 of the Indenture may also provide for the release and discharge of the Company from all obligations under any bonds of the Forty-first Series issued under the Indenture which are assumed by such successor.
ARTICLE III
COVENANTS
Section 3.01.    Maintenance of Paying Agent. So long as any bonds of the Forty-first Series are Outstanding, the Company covenants that the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, where the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on any bonds of such series shall be payable shall also be an office or agency where any such bonds may be transferred or exchanged and where notices, presentations or demands to or upon the Company in respect of such bonds or in respect of the Indenture may be given or made.
Section 3.02.    Further Assurances.

ENTERGY MISSISSIPPI, LLC (successor to Entergy Mississippi, Inc., formerly Mississippi Power & Light Company), a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Texas (hereinafter called the Company), for value received, hereby promises to pay to __________ or registered assigns, at the office or agency of the Company in New York, New York, the principal sum of _______Dollars ($________) on December 1, 2038, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts, and to pay in like manner to the registered owner hereof interest thereon from the date of original issuance, if the date of this bond is prior to June 1, 2019, or, if the date of this bond is on or after June 1, 2019, from the June 1 and December 1 immediately preceding the date of this bond to which interest has been paid on the bonds of this series (unless the date hereof is an interest payment date to which interest has been paid, in which case from the date hereof), at the rate of four and fifty-two one hundredths per centum (4.52%) per annum in like coin or currency on June 1 and December 1 in each year, commencing June 1, 2019, and at maturity or earlier redemption, until the principal of this bond shall have become due and been duly paid or provided for, and to pay interest (before and after judgment) on any overdue principal, premium, if any, and (to the extent that payment of such interest on any overdue interest is not prohibited under applicable law) on any defaulted interest at the rate of five and fifty-two one hundredths per centum (5.52%) per annum.  Interest on this bond shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Interest on this bond in respect of a portion of a month shall be calculated based on the actual number of days elapsed using a 30-day month. 

The interest so payable on any interest payment date will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Mortgage hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person in whose name this bond is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth day immediately preceding such interest payment date.  Unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the registered owner of this bond, at the option of the Company, interest may be paid by check mailed on or prior to such interest payment date to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the register of the Company. 
This bond shall not become obligatory until The Bank of New York Mellon, the Trustee under the Mortgage, as hereinafter defined, or its successor thereunder, shall have signed the authentication certificate endorsed hereon.
This bond is one of a series of bonds of the Company issuable in series and is one of a duly authorized series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, 4.52% Series due December 1, 2038 (herein called bonds of the Forty-first Series), all bonds of all series issued under and equally secured by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust (herein, together with any indenture supplemental thereto, including the Thirty-seventh Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 5, 2018, called the Mortgage), dated as of February 1, 1988, duly executed by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon, as successor Trustee. Reference is made to the Mortgage for a description of the mortgaged and pledged property, assets and rights, the nature and extent of the lien and security, the respective rights, limitations of rights, covenants, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the holders of bonds and the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are, and are to be, secured, the circumstances under which additional bonds may be issued and the definition of certain terms herein used, to all of which, by its acceptance of this bond, the holder of this bond agrees.
The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to the maturity date hereinbefore named on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a Default as in the Mortgage provided. The Mortgage provides that in certain circumstances and upon certain conditions such a declaration and its consequences or certain past defaults and the consequences thereof may be waived by such affirmative vote of holders of bonds as is specified in the Mortgage.

Dear Chris:

Welcome to Mr. Cooper! We look forward to you joining our team. This letter will confirm our offer and your acceptance to join our team as Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer, reporting to Jay Bray, President and CEO.  

		
	Annual Base Salary:
	You will be paid a bi-weekly salary of $26,923.08 which is equivalent to $700,000 on an annualized basis.

		
	Bonus Opportunity:  
	You will be eligible to participate in the Executive Management Incentive Plan (EMIP). Your maximum annual bonus opportunity will be 375% of your annual base salary or $2,625,000. Your target bonus will be 60% of your maximum bonus opportunity or $1,575,000. Your bonus will be based on achieving Company and individual performance goals established by the CEO. In addition, you must be actively employed by Mr. Cooper on the day the bonus is paid to receive an award.

		
	Long-Term Incentive Opportunity:
	Beginning in 2019, you will be eligible for an annual equity award valued at $1,000,000.  The initial grant will be March 1, 2019.  Grants are usually made in March and typically vest equally over three years. All awards must be approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

		
	Relocation Costs:
	In lieu of relocation reimbursement, you will receive a lump sum of $100,000 (grossed up for taxes) within 30 days of your start date to help offset expenses related to housing.  Your airfare will be reimbursed for travel to and from your home location to Mr. Cooper headquarters. All incurred expenses must be in accordance with the Mr. Cooper Travel and Expense policy. Reimbursement for commuting expenses is considered taxable income and will be added to wages on your W-2.

		
	Non-competition:
	You agree that while employed by Mr. Cooper and for the twelve (12) month period immediately following your termination of employment, you shall not directly or indirectly, either as principal, agent, employee, employer, consultant, partner or shareholder in excess of five percent (5%) of a publicly traded corporation, corporate officer or director, or in any other representative capacity, engage or otherwise participate in any manner or fashion with any business, whose primary business is in direct competition with the business of Mr. Cooper, Xome Holdings LLC  and their subsidiaries or of any other business in which Mr. Cooper or its subsidiaries is engaged in at the time of your termination of employment. For clarification, any business that derives the majority of their revenue from mortgage servicing, mortgage origination, or providing services related to purchasing or refinancing a home, would be considered a direct competitor.  You further agree that this restrictive covenant is reasonable as to duration, terms and geographical area and that the same protects the legitimate interests of Mr. Cooper and its respective affiliates, imposes no undue hardship on you, is not injurious to the public, and that any violation of this restrictive covenant shall be specifically enforceable in any court with jurisdiction upon short notice.

		
	Severance:
	Should Mr. Cooper terminate your employment without cause, or if you terminate your employment for good reason, during the initial twenty-four (24) months of your employment, you will be entitled to severance of twelve (12) months of your current 

salary plus 100% of the higher of your target bonus or your prior year’s bonus; the next tranche of restricted stock units scheduled to vest for each grant awarded to you; accrued benefits; and continuation of your coverage under the Company’s medical plan until the earlier of the period of time it takes  you to become eligible for the medical benefits program of a new employer or 12 months from the date of such termination, subject to providing Mr. Cooper and their affiliates, as applicable, with a signed release of claims in a form adopted by such company from time to time, which shall contain reasonable and customary terms and conditions.  Severance shall be paid bi-weekly in accordance with standard payroll practices.  If Mr. Cooper terminates your employment without cause, or you terminate your employment for good reason, after the first twenty-four (24) months of employment, you shall be entitled to receive such severance as may be consistent with the then current practices of the Company.

The Company may terminate your employment either with or without Cause. For purposes of this agreement, “Cause” shall mean:
 
(i)      willful misconduct or willful neglect by you in the performance of your duties to the Company;

(ii)      your willful failure to adhere materially to the clear directions of the Board or to adhere materially to the Company’s material written policies;
 
(iii)      your conviction of or formal admission to or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of commission of a felony or any other conviction which would render you ineligible for employment for the Company; or
 
(iv)      your willful breach of any of the material terms and conditions of this letter agreement. 
The Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Executive with or without Good Reason.  For purposes of the agreement, “Good Reason” means:

the occurrence, without the express written consent of Executive, of any of the following circumstances, unless, with respect to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) hereof, such circumstances are corrected by the Company in all material respects within thirty (30) days following written notification by Executive to the Company (which written notice must be delivered within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such circumstances) that Executive intends to terminate Executive’s employment for one of the reasons set forth below:

 (i) a material reduction in your  base salary; 

(ii) a material diminution in the authorities, duties or responsibilities of  Executive;

(iii) a requirement that the Executive report to someone other than the CEO, or

 (iv) Company’s breach of any term of this Agreement.

		
	Non-solicit:
	You agree that during the period of your employment and for the twelve (12) month period immediately following the date of your termination of employment with Mr. Cooper for any reason, you shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or induce any officer, director, employee, agent or consultant of Mr. Cooper or any of their successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate his, her or its employment or other relationship with Mr. Cooper or any of their successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates, or otherwise encourage any such person or entity to leave or sever his, her or its employment or other relationship with Mr. Cooper or any of their successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates, for any other reason.

		
	Employment at will:
	Nothing herein constitutes an offer of employment for any definite period of time.  The employment relationship is "at-will" which affords you and Mr. Cooper the right to terminate the relationship at any time for no reason or any reason, with 60 days notice.  

		
	Anticipated Start Date:
	January 2, 2019

Should you accept employment with Mr. Cooper, you will be eligible for a maximum of 25 paid time off (PTO) days annually, earned and accrued on a per pay-period basis. On the first day of your employment, you will be eligible to participate in a variety of health and welfare plans including medical, dental, life, disability, sick leave, PTO, and paid holidays. You will also be eligible to participate in the Mr. Cooper 401(k) retirement plan.  More information about these benefits will be provided to you during New Hire Orientation.

If you have or had any agreement or contract with any previous employer or any other entity that would restrict or impair your ability to work for Mr. Cooper, call upon its customers, or prospective customers, or assist Mr. Cooper in recruiting employees, you must immediately notify us.  Also, please be advised that Mr. Cooper prohibits all employees from using trade secrets or other confidential information (verbal, written, electronics or otherwise) they may have acquired from any prior employer.  Mr. Cooper also prohibits employees from bringing any former employer’s confidential information on to Mr. Cooper’s property, including its computer systems, databases, and company-owned or paid-for equipment.  If you have any proprietary or confidential information of any prior employer, you are required to retain the same.  However, you are not to use that information in any way in your job at Mr. Cooper.
This offer is contingent upon the following:

Proof of eligibility and employment authorization in accordance with governmental (I-9) requirements,
Obtaining satisfactory criminal, employment, and education background checks,
Completing all new hire paperwork, which you will receive in the days after you sign and 
date this letter.

Chris, we look forward to you playing a vital role at Mr. Cooper.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

/s/ Jay Bray

Jay Bray
Chairman and CEO

                                                        

I, Christopher Marshall, accept and agree to all the terms and conditions contained in this offer letter.

(Signature)    Date

I understand and agree that if I am hired by Mr. Cooper or any affiliate of Mr. Cooper that my employment relationship with Mr. Cooper or any affiliate of Mr. Cooper to whom I may hereafter be assigned, will be as an “employee at-will.”  Mr. Cooper retains the right to terminate my employment relationship at any time with or without cause, without notice, and without incurring any liability to me.  I further understand and agree that any agreement providing for a term of employment or any agreement restricting or limiting the right of Mr. Cooper or any affiliate to terminate my employment relationship for 
cause is not binding, unless such an agreement is made in writing and signed by the CEO of Mr. Cooper and me. This offer is contingent upon successful completion of a background investigation.
