(a)          Upon the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at Closing, and in consideration for the payment of the Purchase Price
by Buyer to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds, Seller agrees to sell, transfer, assign and convey to Buyer,
and Buyer agrees to purchase, acquire and accept from Seller, all of Seller’s rights, obligations, title and interest in,
to and under the Purchased Assets. The term “Purchased Assets” shall mean the following assets of Seller:

(i)          the
Transferred Loans, including the security interests created by the related Mortgages and Security Documents, as applicable;

(ii)          all
Cash Flow with respect to each Transferred Loan after the Cut-Off Date;

(iii)          all
rights and benefits of Seller with respect to any title, flood and fire, hazard and extended coverage insurance policies that insure
any related Mortgaged Properties or Collateral, as applicable;

related Loan Documents, including the Loan Files and Servicing Transferred Loan Files;

(v)          all
Servicing Rights with respect to the Transferred Loans;

(vi)          any
and all Claims that the Seller may have against any borrower, any guarantor or any other obligor with respect to any Transferred
Loan, including any judgments obtained against any borrower, guarantor or other obligor under any Transferred Loan prior to the
date of this Agreement; and

(vii)          all
proceeds in any way derived from any of the foregoing, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything
else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchased Assets shall not include any Seller Retained Liabilities, all of which are
retained by Seller.

(b)          On
the Closing Date, and in consideration of the sale, transfer, assignment, and conveyance of the Purchased Assets by Buyer, Buyer
hereby agrees to assume from, and discharge Seller of, all obligations to be performed and Liabilities arising in connection with
the Purchased Assets arising after the Closing Date, including (subject to Section 2.4 below) the servicing of Transferred
Loans (the “Assumed Obligations”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree
that the Assumed Obligations do not (and shall not) include any Seller Retained Liabilities, all of which are retained by Seller.

    	12

    	 

    

(c)          All
Cash Flow received by Seller or its Affiliates or Representatives on account of the Transferred Loans after the Cut-Off Date shall
belong to Buyer and shall be sent by Seller to Buyer within fifteen (15) calendar days of Seller’s (or Seller’s Affiliates
or Representatives’) receipt of any such Cash Flow.

(d)          From
and after the date of this Agreement, and notwithstanding the fact that this Agreement does not contain a final, comprehensive
list of the Transferred Loans to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement, Seller and Buyer agree to work in good faith to finalize:
(i) the Closing Date Statement and the Master Asset Transfer Schedule generally in conformance with past discussions on the
Purchase Price and (ii) the list of Transferred Loans to be attached to the Master Asset Transfer Schedule.

Section
2.2          Excluded Assets and Seller Retained Liabilities.

Nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to sell, transfer, assign or convey the Excluded Assets or the Seller Retained Liabilities to Buyer, and Seller
shall retain all right, title and interest to, in and under the Excluded Assets and all liability for the Seller Retained Liabilities.
The term “Excluded Assets” shall mean all assets, properties, interests and rights of Seller other than
the Purchased Assets and shall include:

(a)          all
minute books, organizational documents, stock registers and such other books and records of Seller as pertain to ownership, organization
or existence of Seller;

(b)          all
Intellectual Property Rights of Seller; and

(c)          all
Tax Returns and any claim, right or interest of Seller in or to any refund, rebate, abatement or other recovery for Taxes (other
than Protective Advances) in each case relating to Seller’s Business or the Purchased Assets for all taxable periods (or
portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date, together with any interest due thereon or penalty rebate arising therefrom.

of any Protective Advances or Expenses except for any deductions included in the calculation of the actual Purchase Price.

Section

On the Closing Date, Seller shall sell
and convey the Transferred Loans to Buyer on a whole Transferred Loan basis with servicing released to Buyer as of the applicable
Servicing Transfer Date.

Section
2.4          Servicing Agreement.

During the period
of time starting on the Cut-Off Date and ending at the close of business on the applicable Servicing Transfer Date (such period,
the “Interim Servicing Period”), Seller shall service the Transferred Loans for the benefit of Buyer
and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and Applicable Law (including RESPA with respect to Residential Loans). In
addition, Seller and Buyer hereby agree to the following additional rules and guidelines for servicing of the Transferred Loans
during the Interim Servicing Period:

    	13

    	 

    

(a)          For
Period from the Date of this Agreement Through Closing Date:

(i)          Seller
shall (and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to) (A) consult in good faith with Buyer and its designated Representatives
prior to entering into (or committing to enter into) any amendment, modification, waiver, forbearance, disposition, sale, or any
other action with respect to any of the Transferred Loans or incurring any material expense with respect to any Transferred Loan,
and (B) provide to Representatives of Buyer reasonable access during normal business hours to Seller’s employees engaged
in servicing the Transferred Loans and the Loan Files related to the Transferred Loans;

(ii)          Seller
shall not take or commit to take (and shall cause Seller’s Affiliates and Representatives to not take or commit to take)
any action with respect to the Transferred Loans outside of Ordinary Course Transactions without the prior written consent
of Buyer in its discretion, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; and

(iii)          with
respect to Ordinary Course Transactions, Seller shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to not) undertake
or accept (or commit to undertake or accept) any of the following actions without the prior written consent of Buyer (which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed): (A) a discounted payoff of any Transferred Loan or a sale of any Transferred
Loan with an associated unpaid principal balance as of the Cut-Off Date of $50,000 or more; (B) any amendment, modification, waiver
or forbearance of any of the terms or conditions of any Transferred Loan with an associated unpaid principal balance as of the
Cut-Off Date of $50,000 or more, including without limitation, reductions of interest rate, changes to payment terms from current
cash pay to accrual or pay-in-kind or reductions to principal balance; (C) taking or accepting title to any property which is collateral
for a Transferred Loan as a result of judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, assignment or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, power of

basis for each Transferred Loan during the Interim Servicing Period, the lesser of (x) $5,000 or (y) 5% of the unpaid principal
balance of such Transferred Loan as of the Cut-Off Date.

(b)          For
Period from Closing Date Through the applicable Servicing Transfer Date:

(i)          Seller
shall (and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to) (A) consult in good faith with Buyer and its designated Representatives
prior to entering into (or committing to enter into) any amendment, modification, waiver, forbearance, disposition, sale, or any

and (B) provide to Representatives of Buyer reasonable access during normal business hours to Seller’s employees engaged
in servicing the Transferred Loans and the Loan Files related to the Transferred Loans; and

(ii)          shall
not take or commit to take (and shall cause Seller’s Affiliates and Representatives to not take or commit to take) any action
with respect to the Transferred Loans without the prior written consent of Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion.

Section
2.5          Escrow; Impound Amounts.

    	14

    	 

    

Except as set forth
on Schedule 2.5, there are no Related Escrow Accounts or Impound Amounts and Seller does not collect funds in connection
with the Transferred Loans that would constitute Related Escrow Accounts.

Section
2.6          Expenses.

Seller shall be
responsible for all Expenses of servicing the Transferred Loans until close of business on the Cut-Off Date; provided, however,
that if any assessments are amortized and capable of being paid in installments, Seller shall only be responsible for the payment
of installments due and payable through the close of business on the Cut-Off Date. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the
Cut-Off-Date, Buyer shall be solely responsible for all Expenses relating to servicing the Transferred Loans, including without
limitation, all legal fees, property management fees and care and preservation fees incurred after the Cut-Off Date and payable
to third parties; provided, however, that in no event shall Expenses include any servicing fees, asset management
fees, costs of funds or any other amounts payable to Seller or any Affiliate or Representative of Seller. Amounts included in Expenses
shall be pro-rated as applicable for amounts incurred in respect of periods beginning prior to the beginning of the applicable
period to which the Expenses relate or ending after the end of the applicable period to which the Expenses relate.

Section
2.7          Transfer Taxes and Title Costs.

Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer and Seller shall each pay 50% of any and all documentary, sales, use,
registration, value added, transfer, stamp, registration and similar Taxes, fees and costs, and all transfer, filing and recording
fees otherwise required to be paid by either Seller or Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively,
“Transfer Taxes”), and
each of Buyer and Seller agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all claims, liability, costs
and expenses arising out of or in connection with the failure of the either Buyer or Seller to pay their respective 50% shares
of all such amounts on a timely basis. In addition, Buyer and Seller shall each pay 50% of the costs to obtain endorsements to
existing title insurance policies (in the case of Transferred Loans) in favor of Buyer or its designee; provided that
Seller shall not be required to obtain endorsements to existing title insurance policies that contain successor language allowing
such policies to be assigned to Buyer or its designee.

Section
2.8          Letters of Credit.

(a)          Seller
(or an Affiliate or any predecessor thereof) has issued certain letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”
and, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) set forth on Schedule 2.8 hereof. Prior to the expiration
of the Letters of Credit, Seller shall continue to honor any drawings under the Letters of Credit made by the beneficiaries thereof
in accordance with the terms of each applicable Letter of Credit (referred to herein as a “Drawing”).
Upon the honoring by Seller of any such Drawing, Seller shall be entitled to reimburse itself pursuant to a drawing by Seller against
the Seller in its capacity as escrow agent under the Backstop Deposit in the amount of such Drawing. To the extent that Buyer has
deposited cash with Seller, as escrow agent, with respect to any Letters of Credit at Closing pursuant to this Agreement, and any
such Letters of Credit are not fully drawn prior to expiration or other termination of such Letters of 

    	15

    	 

    
Credit, Seller, as escrow
agent, shall promptly pay to Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer,
any amounts deposited by Buyer that represent undrawn amounts under such Letters of Credit. Once all Letters of Credit have been
terminated or released, any remaining funds in the Backstop Deposit shall be promptly returned to Buyer.

(b)          Seller
acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall have no liability or responsibility for any letters of credit, set aside letters or similar
items related to the Purchased Assets that are not set forth on Schedule 2.8 (or any liability for amounts in excess of
the amounts set forth on Schedule 2.8 for Letters of Credit that are set forth on Schedule 2.8), even if Seller discovers
such items after the Closing Date and Seller agrees to assume and retain any risk that Seller has not included any such letters
of credit, set aside letters or similar items related to the Purchased Assets on Schedule 2.8, or has not included the full
exposure of Seller with respect to Letters of Credit that are set forth on Schedule 2.8. In addition, to the extent that
any Letters of Credit (or any letters of credit, set aside letters or similar items related to the Purchased Assets that are not
set forth on Schedule 2.8) are collateralized, cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any of the Purchased Assets
or the Loan Documents, Seller hereby severs any such collateralization, cross-collateralization and cross-default and agrees that
Seller shall have no right to exercise any rights under the Loan Documents or otherwise take any action against any of the Purchased
Assets, any Credit Party, any Credit Party Affiliate or Buyer for repayment of any amounts drawn under Letters of Credit set forth
on Schedule 2.8 or any other letters of credit, set aside letters or similar items related to the Purchased Assets that
are not set forth on Schedule 2.8. Seller agrees to promptly execute and deliver to Buyer any documents or instruments reasonably
requested by Buyer in order to effect the severance of any such cross-collateralization and/or cross default.

(c)          The
Seller agrees to serve as escrow agent with respect to the Backstop Deposit and agrees to deposit the Backstop Deposit in a segregated
account (the “Deposit Account”). The Seller, as escrow agent, (i) shall hold the Backstop Deposit and
the Deposit Account in trust, (ii) shall not take any action that would reasonably be expected to cause the Backstop Deposit or
the Deposit Account to be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of Seller,
Buyer or Seller, as escrow agent, and (iii) shall hold and safeguard the Backstop Deposit and the Deposit Account in trust until
the Backstop Deposit is released pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

to Morgan Keegan Mortgage Company, Inc. for any fee or commission or like payment under this Agreement or otherwise relating
to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section
3.6          Transferred Loans.

(a)          Ownership
of Transferred Loans. Seller has good and marketable title to, and is the sole owner and holder of, the Transferred Loans (or
the proceeds thereof with respect to those Transferred Loans which have been paid off in accordance with their terms or which have
been disposed of by the Bank in accordance with this Agreement), free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges, or security
interests of any nature other than Permitted Liens. The transfer, assignment and delivery of the Transferred Loans in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall vest in Buyer all of the Bank’s rights as owner of such Transferred
Loans free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges, or security interests of any nature, including, but not limited to,
those of Seller, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement. The sale, transfer and assignment of the Transferred Loans and
the Loan Documents are free and clear of any participation interest.

(b)          Authority
to Transfer Transferred Loans. Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer the Transferred Loans.

(c)          Title
Insurance. The lien of the related Mortgage for all Mortgages is insured by a mortgagee title insurance policy, or its equivalent
as adopted in the applicable 

    	18

    	 

    
jurisdiction, issued by a nationally recognized title insurance company, insuring the originator of
such Transferred Loan, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien or subordinated lien, as applicable, of the Mortgage
in the original principal amount of the Transferred Loan, subject only to Permitted Liens. The Master Asset Transfer Schedule sets
forth and accurately reflects the lien priority as to each title insurance policy with respect to each related Mortgage. Each title
insurance policy is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no material claims have been made thereunder,
no claims have been paid thereunder, and, to Seller’s Knowledge, no prior holder of the related Transferred Loan, including
Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of any such mortgage title insurance policy.

(d)          Enforceability.
Each Transferred Loan is evidenced by a Note and is duly secured by a valid lien on the related Mortgaged Property, in each case,
on forms and pursuant to terms that are in compliance with all material requirements of Applicable Laws at the time of origination.
Each related Note and each related Mortgage is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof (subject to any non-recourse
provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency
legislation), enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by Laws relating to or affecting
the rights of creditors generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law). To Seller’s Knowledge, no Transferred Loan is subject to any right of rescission, set-off,
recoupment, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, that would render the Note or Mortgage unenforceable.

(e)          Disbursement.
All draws required to be funded have been funded in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Mortgage, Note and related
loan agreement, if any. The full original principal amount of each Transferred Loan has been fully disbursed or credited to the
Borrower under the related Note and there is no requirement for any lender to make future advances thereunder. To Seller’s
Knowledge, all material costs, fees and expenses incurred in making, closing or recording the related Mortgage were paid. Except
for refunds or amounts paid in accordance with Acceptable Servicing Practices, no Borrower is entitled to any refund or any amounts
paid or due to any lender pursuant to any related Note or related Mortgage.

(f)          Priority
of Lien. Each Mortgage has been duly acknowledged and recorded, and is a valid, enforceable and subsisting, perfected first
lien on the Mortgaged Property therein described except as set forth on the Master Asset Transfer Schedule, and the Mortgaged Property
is free and clear of all encumbrances and liens having priority over the lien of the Mortgage instrument except for Permitted Liens.

(g)          Insurance.
Other than Transferred Loans with outstanding principal amounts below $250,000 in the aggregate for which Seller does not monitor
insurance coverage, all buildings and improvements upon the related Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurance
carrier against loss by a fire and extended perils policy providing coverage against loss or damage included within the “all
risk of physical loss” or the equivalent thereof and such other hazards as are customarily insured against in the area where
each Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) at least equal to the 

    	19

    	 

    
outstanding principal
amount of such Transferred Loan. The Loan Documents require the Borrower to maintain (or to cause the applicable tenant to maintain)
the insurance referred to in this paragraph in respect of the Mortgaged Property. If any portion of the improvements on the related
Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having “special
flood hazards,” a flood insurance policy meeting any requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration
is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the
outstanding principal amount of such Transferred Loan, (2) the full insurable actual cash value of such Mortgaged Property,
(3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, and (4) 100%
of the replacement cost or value of the improvements located on such Mortgaged Property. The Loan Documents require the Borrower
to maintain (or to cause the applicable tenant to maintain) the insurance referred to in this paragraph in respect of the Mortgaged
Property.

(h)          Waivers
and Modifications. The terms of the related Mortgage and the related Note have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified
in any material respect, except as specifically set forth in the related Loan File. Seller has not: (a) agreed to any material
modification, extension or forbearance in connection with a Note or Mortgage; (b) released, satisfied or canceled any Note or Mortgage
in whole or in part; (c) subordinated any Mortgage in whole or in part; or (d) released any Mortgaged Property in whole or in part
from the lien of any Mortgage, unless a written instrument necessary to effect any of the foregoing is held in the related Loan
File and otherwise satisfies all Applicable Laws. Seller has not advanced its funds to cure a default or delinquency with respect
to any such Transferred Loans, except as specifically set forth on the Master Asset Transfer Schedule. Between the Cut-Off Date
and the date hereof, Seller has not agreed to any material modification, extension or forbearance in connection with any Note or
Mortgage.

(i)          Related
Escrow Accounts. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.5, there are no Related Escrow Accounts maintained or established
by Seller or any Affiliate or Representative of Seller related to the Transferred Loans.

(j)          Application
of Funds. All payments received by Seller with respect to any Transferred Loan have been remitted and properly accounted for
as required by all Applicable Laws in all material respects. All funds received by Seller in connection with the satisfaction of
Transferred Loans, including, but not limited to, foreclosure proceeds, condemnation proceeds and insurance proceeds from hazard
losses, have been deposited in the appropriate principal and interest account or taxes and insurance account, and other than in
the ordinary course consistent with the past servicing practice of Seller, all such funds have been applied to reduce the principal
balance of the Transferred Loans in question, or for reimbursement of repairs to the Mortgaged Property in question, or as otherwise
required by Applicable Laws. The unpaid principal balances of the Transferred Loans are not less than the amount set forth on the
Master Asset Transfer Schedule.

(k)          Valid
Assignment. The assignment of the Mortgage related to each Transferred Loan, constitutes the legal, valid and binding assignment
of such mortgage from Seller to Buyer subject to the exceptions described in Section 3.6(d) above.

    	20

    	 

    

(l)          Loan
File. Each and every Loan File relating to a Transferred Loan contains (a) in all material respects, true, correct and complete
copies of all Loan Documents evidencing, securing, governing or otherwise relating to each Transferred Loan, the originals of which
were duly executed, original, genuine and in due and proper form, (b) with respect to promissory notes and guarantees, such documents
and instruments are duly executed, original (except as provided in Section 5.2(a)), genuine and in due and proper form,
(c) in all material respects, true, correct and complete copies of each of the documents and instruments required to be maintained
by all Applicable Laws and this Agreement, the originals of which were duly executed, original, genuine and in due and proper form,
and (d) all other material documents and information relating to such Transferred Loan in the possession or control of Seller or
its Affiliates or Representatives.

(m)          Loan
Characteristics. The information set forth on the Master Asset Transfer Schedule is true and correct in all material respects,
except that the unpaid principal balances set forth on the Master Asset Transfer Schedule shall be true and correct in all respects.

(n)          Servicing.
The servicing and collection practices used by Seller and its Affiliates and Representatives with respect to the Transferred Loans
have at all times complied in all material respects with Applicable Law and Accepted Servicing Practices.

(o)          Customary
Remedies. The related Mortgage or Note, together with Applicable Law, contains customary and enforceable provisions (subject
to the exceptions set forth in Section 3.6(d) above) such as to render the rights and remedies of the holders thereof adequate
for the practical realization against the related Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided
thereby.

(p)          Deed
of Trust. If the related Mortgage is a deed of trust, to Seller’s Knowledge, a trustee, duly qualified under Applicable
Law to serve as such, is properly designated and serving under such Mortgage.

(q)          Lien
Releases. Except as otherwise set forth in the Loan Documents, the related Note or Mortgage does not require the holder thereof
to release all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, except upon payment in full of all
amounts due under such Transferred Loan which have been allocated to such Mortgaged Property upon the payment of specified release
consideration.

(r)          Environmental.
To Seller’s Knowledge, no Hazardous Substance has been installed, placed, disposed of, released, identified or dealt with
in any manner in, on, under, around or at any Mortgaged Property. To Seller’s Knowledge, no Mortgaged Property has been used
for the release, storage, treatment, generation or disposal of Hazardous Substances. To Seller’s Knowledge, no Hazardous
Substances are present in, on, under, around, at or below any Mortgaged Property in such a manner or concentration as to violate
any law, regulation or guideline. To Seller’s Knowledge, no Mortgaged Property, by itself or as part of any other property,
has been identified by any government agency as the site of a “release,” within the meaning of CERCLA or RCRA, of a
Hazardous Substance.

    	21

    	 

    

(s)          No
Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.4, there is no pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened in
writing, litigation, court action, administrative or regulatory action or arbitration proceeding against Seller and/or with respect
to any Transferred Loan.

(t)          Due-on-Sale
Clauses. Each related Mortgage or Loan Document contains provisions for the acceleration of the unpaid balance of such Transferred
Loan, if, without prior consent of lender or satisfaction of certain conditions, the related Mortgaged Property is transferred,
sold or encumbered in connection with subordinate financing.

(u)          No
Cross-Collateralization or Cross-Default. None of the Transferred Loans are secured by the same property as any other loan
held by Seller or its Affiliates which is not being transferred pursuant to this Agreement, and none of the Transferred Loans are
cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized with any loan or other obligation that is not being transferred to Buyer as part of the
Purchased Assets.

(v)          Deposit
Account Collateral. To the extent that any of the Collateral for any of the Transferred Loans is deposit accounts or cash collateral
accounts or similar (the “Account Collateral”), Seller has a perfected security interest in the Account
Collateral pursuant to Section 9-314 of the UCC by control of such Account Collateral pursuant to an authenticated agreement among
the applicable Borrower, Seller and the bank with which the Account Collateral is maintained in accordance with the requirements
of Section 9-104 of the UCC, and such security interest will remain perfected in favor of Buyer from and after the transfer of
the applicable Transferred Loan to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and the Seller Documents.

(w)          Impound
Amounts. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.5, there are no Impound Amounts related to the Transferred Loans.

(x)          Consumer
Regulations. Each Residential Loan has complied in all material respects with any and all requirements of Applicable Laws,
including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, predatory
lending, abusive lending, fair lending, fair credit reporting, unfair collection practice, equal credit opportunity, fair housing
and disclosure laws and regulations, applicable to the solicitation, origination, collection and servicing of such Residential
Loan; and any obligations of the holder of the Note, Mortgage and other Loan Documents have been complied with in all material
respects and the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such Applicable Laws.

(y)          HOEPA.
No Residential Loan is subject to the provisions of the Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 ("HOEPA")
as amended or has an "annual percentage rate" or "total points and fees" payable by the mortgagor (as each
such term is defined under HOEPA) that equal or exceed the applicable thresholds defined under HOEPA (Section 32 of Regulation
Z, 12 C.F.R. Section 226.32(a)(1)(i) and (ii)) or is considered a "high cost," "predatory" or "abusive"
loan (or a similarly designated loan using different terminology) under any Applicable Laws

CLOSING OF PURCHASE OF TRANSFERRED LOANS 

Section
5.1          Payment of Estimated Purchase Price; Post-Closing Adjustments.

(a)          On
the Closing Date, and in consideration of the sale of the Purchased Assets by Seller on such Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller
the amount of the Estimated Purchase Price (as set forth in the Closing Date Statement delivered by Seller to Buyer, together with
reasonable supporting documentation, prior to the Closing Date) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account
that is designated by Seller in the related

    	24

    	 

    
 Purchase Commitment/Settlement. The payment of such aggregate Purchase Price by Buyer
shall be subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.3 hereof.

(b)          Prior
to or at Closing, Buyer shall deposit cash with Seller, as escrow agent, in an amount sufficient to cover any draws on the Letters
of Credit identified on Schedule 2.8 (the “Backstop Deposit”). Seller acknowledges and agrees
that Buyer shall have no liability or responsibility for any letters of credit, set aside letters or similar items related to the
Purchased Assets and the Transferred Loans that are not set forth on Schedule 2.8, even if Seller discovers such items after
the Closing Date and Seller agrees to assume and retain any risk that Seller has not included any such letters of credit, set aside
letters or similar items on Schedule 2.8.

(c)          Within
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer (i) a final closing statement in the same form as the Closing
Date Statement, updated to reflect actual Protective Advances and Expenses with respect to the Transferred Loans paid by Seller
following the Cut-Off Date and before the Closing Date and all Cash Flow for the period following the Cut-Off Date and before the
Closing Date (the “Final Closing Statement”), which shall be in the same format as the Closing Date Statement
and which shall set forth a calculation (together with any reasonable supporting documentation requested by Buyer) of the actual
Purchase Price.

(d)          Within
sixty (60) days after receipt of the Final Closing Statement, Buyer shall advise Seller in writing if it believes that the Final
Closing Statement did not accurately reflect the items required to be included therein, stating in reasonable detail each disagreement
therewith and the basis therefor. In the event Buyer delivers such an objection, Seller and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to
resolve their differences. In the event all differences are not resolved within thirty (30) days after Seller’s receipt of
Buyer’s objections to the proposed Final Closing Statement, then the issues remaining unresolved shall be determined by a
mutually agreed, nationally recognized accounting firm (the “Accountant”). The Accountant shall resolve
all disputed items in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement within thirty (30) days of receipt of such dispute. In making
its determination, the Accountant may only consider those items and amounts as to which Buyer and Seller have disagreed within
the time periods and on the grounds specified. The Accountant’s determination shall be conclusive and binding on Buyer and
Seller absent manifest error. Each party shall make available to the other parties hereto, and to the Accountant, its and its accountant’s
work papers (to the extent possible), schedules and other supporting data as may be reasonably requested by such other parties
to enable them to verify the amounts set forth in the Final Closing Statement. The fees of the Accountant shall be shared by Buyer,
on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, in proportion to the relative differences between their respective calculations
of the actual Purchase Price and the amount determined by the Accountant.

(e)          If
the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the actual Purchase Price (as finally determined under this Section 5.3), then Seller
shall, within fifteen (15) calendar days after the actual Purchase Price has been finally determined, pay such excess by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to Buyer. If the Estimated Purchase Price is less than the actual Purchase Price (as finally determined
under this Section 5.3), then Buyer shall, within fifteen 

    	25

    	 

    
(15) calendar days after the actual Purchase Price has been finally
determined, pay such deficiency by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Seller.

Section
6.1          Survival.

All of the representations and warranties
of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Document shall survive the Closing until the date which is twelve
(12) months following the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in subsections
(a), (b), (f), (m), (u) and (v) of Section 3.6 shall survive for twenty-four (24) months following the Closing Date. All
of the covenants or other agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive until fully performed or fulfilled,
unless and to the extent only that non-compliance with such covenants or agreements is waived in writing by the party entitled
to such performance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any breach of covenant, agreement, representation or warranty in respect of
which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement shall survive the time at which it would otherwise terminate pursuant to 

    	27

    	 

    
the
preceding sentence, if (a) specific notice of the inaccuracy thereof giving rise to such right of indemnity shall have been given
in writing to the party against whom such indemnity may be sought prior to such time; or (b) the breach was a product of fraud
or willful misrepresentation perpetrated by Seller.

Section
6.2          Indemnification.

Subject to Section
6.1, Section 6.4, and Section 6.5,

(a)          Indemnification
by Seller. Seller hereby agrees, from and after the Closing, to indemnify and hold Buyer and its directors, officers, employees,
Affiliates, agents, Representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”)
harmless from and against any and all losses, Liabilities, Claims, demands, judgments, damages, fines, Actions, costs and expenses
(but in the case of costs and expenses of a party hereto or its Affiliates, limited to the reasonable, actual out of pocket costs
and expenses of such party or its Affiliates) (individually, a “Loss” and collectively, “Losses”)
to the extent:

(i)          based
upon or arising from the failure of any of the representations or warranties made by Seller in this Agreement, any Ancillary Document
or any other Seller Documents to be true and correct in all respects;

(ii)          based
upon or arising from any Document Defect; provided that Seller shall have the option to cure such Document Defect within
a period of forty-five (45) days from the time it discovers or receives notice from Buyer of the existence of such defect;

(iii)          based
upon or arising from the breach of any covenant or other agreement contained herein on the part of Seller;

(iv)          based
upon or arising from any Seller Retained Liabilities;

(v)          based
upon or arising from any Excluded Asset; and

(vi)          based
upon or arising from any failure of Seller, as escrow agent, to comply with its obligations under Section 2.8 of this Agreement,
including without limitation, any failure of Seller, as escrow agent, to promptly refund to Buyer any amounts deposited at Closing
with Seller, as escrow agent, with respect to any Letters of Credit, to the extent such Letters of Credit have expired or been
terminated without being fully drawn.

(b)          Indemnification
by Buyer. Buyer hereby agrees, from and after the Closing, to indemnify and hold Seller and its directors, officers, employees,
Affiliates, agents, Representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”)

or any other Buyer Documents to be true and correct in all respects;

    	28

    	 

    

(ii)          based
upon or arising from the breach of any covenant or other agreement contained herein on the part of Buyer; and

(iii)          based
upon or arising from any Assumed Obligation.

(c)          Repurchase
Option. 

(i)          In
the event that estimated Losses due to a breach of a representation or warranty for any individual Transferred Loan exceed the
greater of $100,000 or twenty percent (20%) of the Unpaid Principal Balance of such Transferred Loan, the Seller shall have the
right to repurchase such Transferred Loan from Buyer for an amount equal to (i) the Allocated Purchase Price for such Transferred
Loan, plus (ii) actual costs and Expenses incurred by Buyer during the period Buyer owned such Transferred Loan; provided
that at the request of Seller, the Buyer shall provide Seller reasonable supporting documentation of such costs and Expenses,
minus (iii) in the case of a Transferred Loan, collections of principal received with respect to such Transferred Loan since
the Cut-Off Date, but only to the extent that, in the case of such Transferred Loan, such collections result in the reduction of
the outstanding principal balance of such Transferred Loan in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents.

(ii)          Upon
the repurchase of a Transferred Loan, Buyer shall convey to Seller all of Buyer’s right, title and interest in and to such
Transferred Loan and Seller shall assume all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Transferred Loan; provided
that, in no event shall Seller assume any liabilities or obligations with respect to such Transferred Loan that arise during
the period Buyer owned the Transferred Loan. Buyer shall endorse, transfer, convey or assign to Seller the Transferred Loan and/
in the same manner as such Loan Documents were transferred and assigned from Seller to Buyer by documentation in the same form
as that delivered from Seller to Buyer, but mutatis mutandis. Seller shall be responsible for, and shall pay when due and
payable, all transfer, filing and recording fees and taxes, costs and expenses, and any state or county documentary taxes, if any,
with respect to the filing or recording of any document or instrument contemplated hereby in connection with such repurchase, and
shall be responsible for recording any documents evidencing the transfers contemplated in connection with such repurchase. After
repurchase hereunder, Buyer shall immediately endorse, assign over and deliver to Seller any and all payments received after repurchase
by Seller from or on behalf of any obligor on the repurchased Transferred Loan.

Section
6.3          Indemnification Procedures.

(a)          Each
Person entitled to indemnification under this Article 6 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written
notice to the Person required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such
Indemnified Party receives written notice of any claim, event or matter as to which indemnity may be sought; provided that
the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this Section 6.3(a) shall not relieve any Indemnifying
Party of its obligations under ARTICLE 6, except to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the rights of any
such Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party makes a claim on account of a Loss which may be covered by third party indemnification
or insurance, the Indemnified Party shall undertake diligent and good faith efforts to pursue recovery available under such third
party indemnification or insurance policy and shall keep the Indemnifying Party 

    	29

    	 

    
reasonably informed of such efforts, but shall
not be required to make any claim or exhaust any remedies under any third party indemnification or insurance policy as a condition
to making a claim under this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented
by counsel of its choice, which must be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; and, if the Indemnifying Party agrees
(without conceding responsibility for indemnification hereunder) that the subject matter of such claim is within the scope of the
indemnification provisions under the terms of this Agreement (an “Indemnification Claim”), the Indemnifying
Party shall have the right to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying
Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim, it shall within thirty (30)
days (or sooner, if the nature of the Indemnification Claim so requires) notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so. If
the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim, then the
Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying
Party shall assume the defense of any Indemnification Claim, then the Indemnified Party may participate, at his or its own expense,
in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any
such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (A) so requested by the Indemnifying Party
to participate or (B) in the written opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party a conflict exists between the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party that the assumption of such defense by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate; provided
further that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay for more than one (1) such counsel (plus any appropriate local
counsel) for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Indemnification Claim. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully
with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim.

(b)          Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 6.3 to the contrary, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the
written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any
judgment unless the third party claimant and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all Liability in
respect of the Indemnification Claim and such other party is not required to make any payment in connection with such settlement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a settlement offer solely for money damages is made by the applicable third party claimant, and
the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing of the Indemnifying Party’s willingness to accept the settlement
offer and pay the amount called for by such offer, and the Indemnified Party declines to accept such offer, then the Indemnified
Party may continue to contest such Indemnification Claim, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, and the amount of
any ultimate Liability with respect to such Indemnification Claim that the Indemnifying Party has an obligation to pay hereunder
shall be limited to the lesser of (A) the amount of the settlement offer that the Indemnified Party declined to accept plus, without
duplication, the aggregate reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the
defense of such Indemnification Claim through the date of its rejection of the settlement offer, to the extent such fees would
be due and payable pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(A) or (B), and (B) the Losses suffered by the Indemnified Party in
connection with such Indemnification Claim. If the Indemnifying Party makes any payment on any Indemnification Claim, then the
Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the 

    	30

    	 

    
extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any
insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnification Claim.

(c)          After
any decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction, or a settlement shall
have been consummated (in accordance with this ARTICLE 6, or the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have
arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to an Indemnification Claim hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall forward
to the Indemnifying Party notice of any sums due and owing by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to
such matter.

(d)          Each
party shall reasonably cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates reasonably to cooperate, in the defense or prosecution
of any Indemnification Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such
conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith, it being
understood that the party requesting such cooperation shall promptly reimburse the other party for any reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by the cooperating party (including reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses to and from and attending conferences,
discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals).

Section
6.4          Certain Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)          Each
of the parties hereto agrees to take all reasonable steps to mitigate their respective Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder,
but the provisions of this Section 6.4 shall not require an Indemnified Party to exhaust any remedies against a third party
Indemnitor or insurance prior to making a claim under this Agreement against an Indemnifying Party. If any party receives an insurance
payment or a recovery from a third party in respect of its Loss after payment has been made under any indemnification provision
of this Agreement in respect of that Loss, the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such insurance
payment or third party recovery received by the Indemnified Party (less the Indemnified Party’s reasonable costs incurred
to secure such insurance payment or third party recovery) within five (5) business days after such insurance payment or third party
recovery is received; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not be required to pay over to Seller any tax
benefit by virtue of the foregoing provision.

(b)          Subject
to Section 6.4(d) below, Seller shall not be liable for Losses under Section 6.2(a)(i), and Buyer shall not be liable
for Losses under Section 6.2(b)(i) unless the amount of Losses under the applicable Section exceeds five thousand dollars
($5,000) in the aggregate; provided, that in the event Losses under either Section 6.2(a)(i) or Section 6.2(b)(i)
exceed such amount, then Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall be liable for all of such Losses, including the first five
thousand dollars ($5,000).

(c)          Subject
to Section 6.4(d) below, Seller shall not be liable for Losses under Section 6.2(a)(i), and Buyer shall not be liable
for Losses under Section 6.2(b)(i) to the extent such Losses exceed five percent (5.0%) of the aggregate Purchase Price
for all Transferred Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that if any Transferred Loan
is repurchased by Seller pursuant to Section 6.2(c) above, fifty percent (50%) of the amounts payable by Seller under Section
6.2(c) to repurchase the applicable Transferred 

    	31

    	 

    
Loan shall apply towards (and count against) the cap on maximum liability contained
in this Section 6.4(c); provided, however, any amounts payable by Seller to repurchase a Transferred Loan related to a breach
of the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a), (b), (f), (m), (u) and (v) of Section 3.6 shall not
apply towards (or count against) the cap on maximum liability contained in this Section 6.4(c).

(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Losses that result from (a) actual fraud or intentional misrepresentation by Seller
or its Affiliates or Representatives, (b) breaches of the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a), (b), (f),
(m), (u) and (v) of Section 3.6, (c) any Seller Retained Liabilities, or (d) any Assumed Obligations will not be subject
to any of the limitations contained in this Section 6.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement, and any Losses related to the foregoing
shall not apply towards (or count against) the cap on maximum liability contained in Section 6.4(c).

(e)          IN
NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, DIMINUTION IN VALUE
NOT RELATED TO COLLATERAL UNDERLYING THE TRANSFERRED LOANS, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; PROVIDED THAT THE FOREGOING WILL NOT APPLY
TO THE EXTENT THAT THE INDEMNIFYING PARTY IS REQUIRED TO INDEMNIFY HEREUNDER FOR DAMAGES REQUIRED TO BE PAID TO A THIRD PARTY.

Section
6.5          Exclusivity; Equitable Remedies.

Buyer and Seller agree that the rights
of the parties hereto to indemnification under this ARTICLE 6 shall be the exclusive rights and remedies of the parties
hereto for the recovery of any Losses for which a party may be entitled to recover under this Agreement or in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby; provided that nothing in this Agreement will preclude or prevent any party hereto from
seeking and obtaining equitable remedies or relief not involving the recovery of money damages from any court of competent jurisdiction
(such as the remedies of injunctive relief or specific performance) for any breach or violation of this Agreement or otherwise
in connection with such transactions.

This Agreement and
the Ancillary Documents (including any certificates referred to herein or therein) represent the entire understanding and agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or
changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed
by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. No action taken pursuant
to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party
taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any party
of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach
or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising,
any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right,

    	33

    	 

    

If any term or other
provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms or
provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the
transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any
term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to
modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order
that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section

This Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in

except as provided below. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by either Buyer
or Seller, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other party and
any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void. No assignment of any obligations hereunder shall relieve
the parties hereto of any such obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written notice to Seller (but without any requirement
for Seller consent), Buyer shall have the right to (a) assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Qualified Assignee,
or (b) collaterally assign its rights under this Agreement to a lender in connection with a loan or loans secured in whole or in
part by the Transferred Loans.

Section
7.8          Specific Performance; Remedies.

The parties hereto
expressly recognize and acknowledge that immediate, extensive and irreparable damage may result in the event that any provision
of Agreement is breached. Therefore, in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy available to the non-breaching
party, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek to enforce its rights under this Agreement in any court of equity by decree
of specific performance, and appropriate injunctive relief may be sought in connection therewith. Such remedy of specific performance
and any and all other remedies provided for in this Agreement shall, except as provided in Section 6.5, be cumulative in
nature and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies whatsoever that a non-breaching party may otherwise have.

Section
7.9           Non-Recourse.

No past, present
or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative
of Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any Liability for any obligations or liabilities of Seller or
Buyer (as applicable) under this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of,

Section

    	34

hereby.

Section
7.12          Post-Closing Cooperation Related to Transition of Loans.

From and after the
Closing, upon the reasonable written request of Buyer and at no cost or expense to Buyer, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to: (a) provide to Buyer a single point of contact at Seller which contact shall be available upon reasonable notice and
during normal business hours for all reasonable servicing and IT questions and transition items for at least twelve (12) months
after the Closing; (b) as soon as is reasonably practicable after the Closing, in addition to the notice to Borrowers required
pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ix) (which notice shall be sent out prior to the applicable Servicing Transfer Date at Seller’s
expense), mail any customary “good-bye” letters acceptable in form and substance to Buyer and conforming to Applicable
Law and RESPA requirements (if applicable); (c) provide Buyer with all reasonably available vendor information for each Transferred
Loan (including, without limitation, insurance information, tax service contracts and other information) for notification of the
transfer of the Transferred Loan; (d) produce any reasonably available data downloads for the Transferred Loans; (e) prepare final
reports reasonably necessary for transfer of the Transferred Loans by Buyer or its servicer, such final reports to include, but
not be limited to, to the extent reasonably available, a trial balance, loan history, suspense funds listing, collateral reconciliation,
and tax and insurance reporting; (f) as soon as is reasonably practicable assemble and deliver to Buyer’s servicer any applicable
and reasonably available records related to servicing, tax, insurance, collateral, asset and origination; (g) provide to Buyer
and its servicer all applicable and reasonably available electronic/imaged documentation with respect to the Transferred Loans
in the possession or control of Seller or its Affiliates and Representatives; and (h) promptly send trailing documents and payments

Section
7.13          Litigation Transition.

Prior to Closing,
Seller shall deliver written notification to Buyer of (i) the Transferred Loans in litigation including the names, addresses, telephone
numbers and e-mail addresses of all parties involved in such litigation and (ii) all documents related to such litigation. Within
five (5) business days after Closing, Seller shall (i) notify the clerk of the court and all counsel of record involved in such
litigation that ownership of the Transferred Loan in question has been transferred from Seller to Buyer, (ii) through its attorney,
if requested by Buyer and in cooperation with Buyer’s attorney, file appropriate pleadings with the court that will (x) substitute
Buyer’s attorney for Seller’s attorney, and (y) remove Seller as a party to the litigation and substitute Buyer as
the real party in interest. If Seller fails to substitute Buyer’s 

    	35

    	 

    
attorney for Seller’s attorney or to remove Seller
as a party in interest, then Seller shall pay continued legal expenses in such litigation until such time as the substitution is
effected. In no event shall (i) Buyer be liable for any contingency arrangements of Seller with Seller’s attorneys or (ii)
such substitution shall include (or be otherwise construed as) any assumption by Buyer of any Seller Retained Liabilities; provided,
that in the event any settlement or other resolution of litigation involves or creates a Seller Retained Liability, Buyer shall
obtain Seller’s prior written consent to such settlement or resolution, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Seller
consents to the engagement by Buyer of counsel to Seller in connection with any litigation or other matter relating to the Transferred
Loans or otherwise, subject to appropriate limitations on the scope of such engagement, an agreement between such counsel and Seller
satisfactory to Seller, and maintenance of the attorney-client privilege as to all communications between the Seller and such counsel
prior to the Closing; provided that (a) no such counsel shall represent either Seller or Buyer in connection with any dispute under
this Agreement or between Seller and Buyer and (b) Buyer agrees that Seller may retain such counsel for any new matters unrelated
to such litigation or other matters.

Section
7.14          Insurance Policies.

To the extent the
Loan Documents contain casualty insurance policies, credit life or disability policies, private insurance guarantor policies, or
other similar types of documents (the “Policies”), Seller agrees to (a) deliver the original Policies
(or if original Policies are not available, copies of such Policies) to Buyer on or before the applicable Servicing Transfer Date,
(b) prior to the applicable Servicing Transfer Date, notify each of the insurance carriers of the sale of the applicable Transferred
Loan to Buyer and cause the applicable insurance carrier to substitute Buyer or its designee as the new loss payee on each of the
Policies as of the Closing Date to the extent required by the terms of each such Policy, and (c) otherwise cooperate with Buyer
(at no cost or expense to Buyer) to substitute Buyer or Buyer’s designee as loss payee for any Policies in which the Seller
is listed as loss payee as of the Closing Date.

Section
7.15          Further Assurances.

At any time, and
from time to time hereafter, upon the reasonable request of Buyer, Seller will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver, and will cause
to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all such further acts, deeds, assignments, transfers, conveyances, powers of
attorney, recordings and assurances as may be reasonably required in order to assign, transfer, grant, convey, assure and confirm
to Buyer, or to permit Buyer to collect and reduce to possession, any or all of the Transferred Loans sold hereunder and to effectuate
and evidence the assignment of judgments related thereto. All instruments relating to the purchase and sale of the Transferred
Loans pursuant to this Agreement, and all proceedings taken in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, shall be in form and substance mutually satisfactory to Buyer and Seller.

Section
7.16          Nondisclosure.

Buyer and Seller
agree to maintain the Purchase Price Percentage for each Transferred Loan and the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to each
Transferred Loan, any non-public information contained in the Disclosure Schedule, and all negotiations relating to the subject

    	36

    	 

    
matter of this Agreement as confidential between the parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any party
(or its Affiliates) may disclose such confidential information to its lenders, in the course of its (or its Affiliates’)
normal reporting practices to its (or their) regulators or direct or indirect owners, or if required by applicable law or regulations,
including but not limited to federal securities laws and regulations, or any rule of any stock exchange (in each case, including
pursuant to a registration statement or other document filed with a governmental authority under applicable law) or if necessary
for it to perform any of its duties or obligations hereunder, all as determined by such party in its discretion. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall have the right to (x) disclose to those Persons directly related to the
Transferred Loans (for example, Borrowers, title companies, tenants, etc.) that Buyer has purchased the Transferred Loans and shall
have the right without the consent of Seller or any other Person to disclose such confidential information as may be necessary
or desirable to inform such Persons that Buyer is the owner of the Transferred Loans and/or to enforce the Loan Documents; (y)
Buyer and its agents and Affiliates shall have the right to disclose confidential information that is necessary or desirable in
Buyer’s opinion to enforce its rights under the Transferred Loans and related Loan Documents, and (z) Buyer shall have the
right to disclose to any potential lender, bondholder or rating agency such confidential information as may be necessary or desirable
to disclose in connection with a secured or unsecured financing or securitization of the Transferred Loans by Buyer or its Affiliates.

Section
7.17          Disclosure Schedule.

Seller has set forth
information on the Disclosure Schedule in a section thereof that corresponds to the section of this Agreement to which it relates.
A matter set forth in one section of the Disclosure Schedule need not be set forth in any other section so long as its relevance
to such other section of the Disclosure Schedule or section of the Agreement is reasonably apparent on the face of the information
disclosed therein to the Person to which such disclosure is being made. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) the
Disclosure Schedule may include certain items and information solely for informational purposes for the convenience of Buyer and
(b) the disclosure by Seller of any matter in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment
by Seller that the matter is required to be disclosed by the terms of this Agreement or that the matter is material.

MUTUALBANK

Executive Variable Compensation Plan

INTRODUCTION

MutualBank recognizes that the achievement of strategies and goals will determine organizational excellence.  The responsibility for this task lies directly with the Executives of MutualBank.  This Executive Variable Compensation Plan is intended to incent all Executives to achieve desired earnings performance.  The achievement of desired earnings will require strategic thinking, dedicated effort, a commitment to long-term success and a sincere desire to achieve through teamwork. 

GOALS

	
·  

	
Ensure all Executive’s activities are consistent with the strategic performance goals of MutualBank.

	
·  

	
Achieve the earnings objective set forth in the MutualBank Strategic Plan.

	
·  

	
Enhance the level of teamwork throughout the Bank.

	
·  

	
Reward success, encouraging individual commitment to goal achievement.

	
·  

	
Maintain competitive pay practices for all Executives.

All Executive Variable Compensation Plan objectives are designed to stretch the capabilities of participants.  The achievement of these goals will have significant impact on the success of MutualBank. 

ADMINISTRATIVE GUIDELINES

ESTABLISHMENT AND ADMINISTRATION:

The Board of Directors establishes this Executive Variable Compensation Plan (Plan).  This Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, and the Board will provide oversight.  The Board expressly reserves the right to modify, repeal or discontinue this Plan at any time.

EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN:

This Plan shall remain in effect until modified, repealed or discontinued.  The Plan is implemented for a performance period of each fiscal year.  

ANNUAL GOALS AND PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

For each performance period, the Compensation Committee establishes goals for the Bank to attain specific Earnings Per Share (EPS) objectives during that period.  It also establishes the range of potential payments to participants calculated as a percentage of annual salary, depending on the EPS goal met during each performance period.  Each participant’s payment will be determined by the Bank’s achievement of the EPS objectives established by the Compensation Committee and will be specific to the individual.

  

  

  

  

QUALIFICATION FOR VARIABLE COMPENSATION PAYMENT:

Participants must be employed at the end of each performance period in order to receive any variable compensation payment under the Plan.  Participation in this Plan does not constitute a contract of employment.  Any participant terminated for cause or resigning for cause prior to payment of variable compensation will be ineligible.  A participant with a performance rating of below expectations for a period of more than sixty consecutive days will not qualify for variable compensation payment for that period of time.  

VARIABLE COMPENSATION PAYMENT CALCULATION:

A participant's variable compensation payment will be calculated based on a percentage of the total of bi-weekly salary payments only.  

RETIREMENT/ABSENCE/DEATH:

In the event of retirement or death, a participant's variable compensation payment will be calculated based upon the amount of time actively worked during the performance period.  If a participant is absent from work for a period of more than sixty consecutive days, payment will be calculated based upon the amount of time actively worked during the performance period.

VARIABLE COMPENSATION DISTRIBUTION:

Variable compensation payments shall be paid as soon as may be feasible after the close of each fiscal year.  All payments are subject to income tax withholdings and are treated as "ordinary income" to each participant, and will be reported as income in the year the incentive payment is received.

METHOD OF VARIABLE COMPENSATION PAYMENT:

All payments will be paid as a deposit into a participant's direct deposit payroll account.  There are no provisions in this Plan for payments in property or equity of the Bank. 

CLAWBACK PROVISION:

If in any event, variable compensation is paid based upon performance measurements that are subsequently deemed to be inaccurate due to misstatement or misrepresentation, all payments made based upon that error are to be repaid to the Company.
