          herein, Seller shall be fully, absolutely, and unconditionally obligated and liable to repay to Buyer the full amount thereof if (x) on the related scheduled Purchase Date such Mortgage Loan does not close, or (y) such Mortgage Loan otherwise
          fails to become a Purchased Mortgage Loan.  Any amounts due pursuant to this Section 3(c)(vii) shall be payable on demand, and the unpaid amount thereof shall accrue interest at the Post-Default Rate from the date so transferred until paid in
          full.

     

    (d)          Repurchase; Purchase by a Takeout Investor.

     

    (i)          Seller may repurchase Purchased Mortgage Loans without penalty or premium on any date.  Such repurchase may occur simultaneously with a sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to a Takeout Investor.  If Seller intends to make such a
        repurchase, Seller shall give written notice thereof to Buyer through the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System in accordance with the TIAA Bank Warehouse Customer Guide, and to Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, designating the
        Purchased Mortgage Loans to be repurchased and providing such other information required pursuant thereto, including, without limitation, delivery of a Takeout Investor Purchase Advice to the extent that such Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be
        purchased by a Takeout Investor.  If such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, and, on receipt, such amount shall be applied to the Repurchase Price for the designated
        Purchased Mortgage Loans.

     

    
      - 28 -

      
        

    

    (ii)          On the Repurchase Date, termination of the Transaction will be effected by reassignment to Seller or its designee of the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including the related Servicing Rights and any Income in respect thereof received by
        Buyer not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the Obligations of, Seller) against the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer.  Such obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or
        intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan (but liquidation or foreclosure proceeds received by Buyer shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan except as otherwise
        provided herein).  Seller shall comply with all of the provisions of the TIAA Bank Warehouse Customer Guide and the Custodial Agreement in order to effectuate a repurchase hereunder.  Seller is obligated to obtain the Mortgage Files from Buyer or
        its designee at Seller’s expense on the Repurchase Date.  All repurchases effected on any Business Day shall be reflected in the Daily Activity Report for such Business Day. On each Repurchase Date, upon Buyer’s receipt of the Repurchase Price with
        respect to the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loan, Buyer shall be deemed to have simultaneously released its interest in the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loan in accordance with the relevant Bailee Letter if applicable, and otherwise without any
        further action by Buyer or any other Person and such Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be transferred to the Seller or its designee free and clear of any liens, pledges or encumbrances of Buyer hereunder.

     

    	SECTION 4.	
            MARGIN AMOUNT MAINTENANCE

          

     

    (a)          Buyer

        shall determine the Asset Value of each Purchased Mortgage Loan at such intervals as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion.

     

    (b)          If at any time the Asset Value of any Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to a Transaction is less than the Purchase Price for such Transaction, or any applicable Concentration Limit has been exceeded (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller (as such
          notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Margin Call”), require Seller to transfer to Buyer or its designee cash so that, as applicable, (i) the Asset Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans will thereupon equal or exceed the Purchase
          Price for such Transaction, and (ii) no Concentration Limit will be exceeded.

     

    (c)          Notice delivered pursuant to Section 4(b) may be given by any written or electronic
          means.  Any notice given before [***] (New York City time) on a Business Day
          shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than [***]. (New
          York City time) on such Business Day; notice given after [***]. (New York City
          time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than [***]. (New York City time) on the following Business Day (the foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”).

     

    (d)         The
        failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date.  Seller and Buyer each
        agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

     

    (e)         Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(b) above shall be credited to the Repurchase Price of the related Transactions, or, at Buyer’s option, may be placed in the Reserve Account until
        such time that Buyer determines, in its sole discretion, that the Margin Deficit has been eliminated, and following elimination of the Margin Deficit Buyer shall deposit the remaining portion of the cash transfer in excess of the Minimum Reserve
        Amount, if any, into the Haircut Account.

    	SECTION 5.	
            COLLECTIONS; INCOME PAYMENTS

          

     

    (a)          All Income, and all rights to Income, of, on, or otherwise with respect to all Purchased Mortgage Loans is the sole and exclusive property of Buyer as the owner thereof, pending repurchase on the related Repurchase Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer agrees that Seller shall be entitled to receive, solely from such Income, an amount
        equal to all Income received in respect of the Purchased Assets; provided, however, that any Income received by or on behalf of Seller while the related Transaction is outstanding shall be deemed held by Seller solely in trust for Buyer pending the
        repurchase on the related Repurchase Date.

     

    (b)          In the event that a Default has
          occurred and is continuing, notwithstanding any provision set forth herein, Seller shall remit to Buyer, by wire transfer in accordance with wire transfer instructions
          previously given to Seller by Buyer, all Income received with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan on such date or dates as Buyer notifies Seller in writing.

     

    (c)          All amounts required to be paid or remitted by Seller to Buyer which are not made when due
            shall bear interest from the due date until the remittance, transfer or payment is made, payable by Seller, at the lesser of the Post-Default Rate or the maximum rate of interest permitted by law.  If there is no maximum rate of interest
            specified by applicable law, interest on such sums shall accrue at the Post-Default Rate.

     

    (d)          Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant
          to Section 4(b) above may be either credited to the Repurchase Price of the related Transactions, or, at Buyer’s option, may be placed in the Reserve Account until such time that Buyer determines, in its sole discretion, that the Margin Deficit
          has been eliminated, and following elimination of the Margin Deficit Buyer shall deposit the remaining portion of the cash transfer in excess of the Minimum Reserve Amount, if any, into the Haircut Account.

     

    	SECTION 6.	
            REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

          

     

    (a)         If any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or other organizational or governing documents) or any change in the governmental or judicial interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not
          having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

     

    (i)           shall subject Buyer to any Tax or increased Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof (other than Taxes described in
        clauses (I) through (IV) of Section 7(a);

     

    (ii)          shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, or other extensions of credit by,
        or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the SOFR Rate hereunder; or

     

    
      - 30 -

      
        

    

    (iii)         shall

        impose on Buyer any other condition;

     

    and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount which Buyer deems to be material, of
      entering, continuing or maintaining any Transaction or to reduce any amount due or owing hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay Buyer such additional amount or amounts as calculated by Buyer in good faith as
      will compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

     

    (b)       If Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or other organizational or governing documents) regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or
          compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of
          reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
          consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material, then from time to time, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
          Buyer for such reduction.

     

    (c)          If
        Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.  A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section
        submitted by Buyer to Seller shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

     

    	SECTION 7.	
            TAXES

          

     

    (a)         Any and all payments by
        Seller under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Facility Documents to which Seller is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies,
        imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or
        other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by law.  If Seller shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this
        Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents to Buyer, (i) Seller shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) Seller shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation
        authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable Requirement of Law, and (iii) the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as may be necessary so that after Seller has made all required deductions and withholdings
        (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 7) Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded
        Taxes.  For purposes of this Agreement the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Seller under this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents other than
        (I) Taxes imposed on or measured by overall Net Income, franchise Taxes, and branch profits Taxes, in each case, (x) imposed as a result of Buyer or any other recipient of the payment being organized under the laws of, or having its applicable
        lending office in, the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (or any political subdivision thereof), or (y) imposed as a result of a present or former connection between Buyer or any other recipient of the payment and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax
        (other than connection arising from such person having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes), (II) U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of Buyer or other recipient of a payment hereunder pursuant to a
        law in effect on the date such person becomes a party to this Agreement or such person changes its lending office, except to the extent that, pursuant to Section 7, amounts were payable to such person’s assignor immediately before such person
        becomes a party to this Agreement or were payable before such person changed its lending office, (III) Taxes attributable to a failure by Buyer to comply with Section 7(e), and (IV) any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA.

     

    
      - 31 -

      
        

    

    (b)          In addition, Seller hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added taxes, or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made
          under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Facility Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Facility Document, except any such Taxes
          that are  imposed with respect to an assignment as a result of a present or former connection between Buyer and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than connection arising from such person having executed, delivered or performed its
          obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents) (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

     

    (c)          Seller

        hereby agrees to indemnify Buyer for, and to hold it harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 7 imposed on or
        paid by Buyer and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.  The indemnity by Seller provided for in this Section 7(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the
        Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted.  Amounts payable by Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 7(c) shall be paid within [***] days from the date on which Buyer makes written demand therefor.

     

    (d)          Within

        thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Seller (or any Person making such payment on behalf of Seller) shall furnish to Buyer for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof, a copy
        of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.

     

    
      - 32 -

      
        

    

    (e)          Buyer and any
          Buyer assignee shall deliver to Seller a properly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”)  Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that it is not subject to backup withholding. If a payment made to a Buyer or Buyer assignee
          under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or assignee were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b)
          of the Code, as applicable), such Buyer or assignee shall deliver to Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as
          prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Seller as may be necessary for the Seller to comply with their obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and
          withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 7(e)(C), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

     

    (f)         If Buyer
          determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Seller or with respect to which the Seller has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 7(a), it
          shall pay to Seller an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Seller under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket
          expenses incurred by the Buyer and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that Seller, upon the request of the Buyer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to
          the it (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event the Buyer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
          Section 7(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to Seller pursuant to this Section 7(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified
          party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been
          paid.

     

    (g)         Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  Nothing contained in this
        Section 7 shall require Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

     

    (h)          Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes, to treat the Transaction as indebtedness of
          Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Purchased Mortgage Loans as owned by Seller for federal income tax purposes in the absence of a Default by Seller.  All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and
        agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by law.

     

    	SECTION 8.	
            SECURITY INTEREST; BUYER’S APPOINTMENT AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

          

     

    (a)          Security Interest.  On each Purchase Date, Seller hereby sells, assigns and conveys all rights, title, and interests in, to, and under the Purchased
        Mortgage Loans identified on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule or as to which Buyer otherwise pays the Purchase Price as provided herein, including the related Mortgage File and Servicing Rights and all Income therefrom.  Although the parties
        intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases and not loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans, and, in any event, as security for the performance by Seller of its Obligations, Seller hereby pledges to Buyer
        and hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a fully perfected first priority security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title, and interest in, to, and under the following, in all instances whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now
        existing or hereafter created and wherever located (collectively, the “Repurchase Assets”):

    (i)           the Purchased Mortgage Loans;

     

    (ii)          the Mortgage File
          and Records related to the Purchased Mortgage Loans;

     

    (iii)         all Servicing
          Rights related to the Purchased Mortgage Loans;

     

    (iv)         the Facility
          Documents (to the extent such Facility Documents and Seller’s rights thereunder relate to the Purchased Mortgage Loans);

     

    (v)          any Property
          relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property;

     

    (vi)         any Takeout
          Commitments relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loan;

     

    (vii)        any Closing
          Protection Letter relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loan;

     

    (viii)       all insurance
          policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property, including, but not limited to, any payments or proceeds under any related primary insurance or hazard insurance;

     

    (ix)          all Income relating to any Purchased
          Mortgage Loan;

     

    (x)           the Inbound Account;

     

    (xi)          the Haircut Account;

     

    (xii)         any Hedge Agreements relating to any
          Purchased Mortgage Loan;

     

    (xiii)       any other contract
          rights, accounts, deposit accounts (including any interest of Seller in escrow accounts), payments, rights to payment (including payments of interest or finance charges), and general intangibles to the extent that any of the foregoing relates to
          any Purchased Mortgage Loan,

     

    (xiv)       any other assets
          relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, any other deposit accounts) or any interest in the Purchased Mortgage Loans;

     

    (xv)        [ Reserved];

     

    (xvi)       any and all
          replacements or substitutions for, proceeds (including the related securitization proceeds) of, and distributions on or with respect to any of the foregoing;

     

    
      - 34 -

      
        

    

    (xvii)     any other property,

          and

     

    (xix)       the Reserve Account.

     

    Seller acknowledges that it has no rights to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in the event that Seller is deemed to retain any residual Servicing Rights, and for the avoidance of doubt, Seller grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a security interest
      in the Servicing Rights and proceeds related thereto and in all instances, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created.  The foregoing provision is
        intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Agreement and Transactions hereunder as defined under Sections 101(47)(v) and 741(7)(x) of the Bankruptcy Code.

     

    Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase
      Assets and the Servicing Rights as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate, without the signature of Seller thereon.  Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 8.

     

    (b)          Buyer’s Appointment as Attorney in Fact.  Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Buyer and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true
          and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Seller and in the name of Seller or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this
          Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the
          foregoing, Seller hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Seller, without assent by, but with notice to, Seller, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

     

    (i)           in the name of Seller, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any
          other Repurchase Assets and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any other
          Repurchase Assets whenever payable;

     

    (ii)          to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Repurchase Assets;

     

    
      - 35 -

      
        

    

    (iii)        (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Repurchase Assets to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct; (B) to ask or demand for, collect,
          receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Repurchase Assets; (C) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and
          other documents in connection with any Repurchase Assets; (D) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Repurchase Assets or any proceeds thereof and to
          enforce any other right in respect of any Repurchase Assets; (E) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Seller with respect to any Repurchase Assets; (F) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described
          in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; and (G) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Repurchase Assets
          as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Seller’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve
          or realize upon the Repurchase Assets and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Seller might do;

     

    (iv)        for the purpose of carrying out the transfer of servicing with respect to the Mortgage Loans from Seller to a successor servicer appointed by Buyer in its sole discretion and to take any and all appropriate action and to
          execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish such transfer of servicing, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Seller,
          without assent by Seller, to, in the name of Seller or its own name, or otherwise, prepare and send or cause to be sent “good-bye” letters to all mortgagors under the Mortgage Loans substantially in the form required pursuant to applicable

    (v)          to deliver notices of sale to Mortgagors or other third parties, including without limitation, those required by law.

     

    Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  This power of attorney is
      a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.  In addition to the foregoing, Seller agrees to execute a Power of Attorney to be delivered on the date hereof.

      time, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 14 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Repurchase Assets.

     

    The powers conferred on Buyer hereunder are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Repurchase Assets
      and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or
      agents shall be responsible to Seller for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

        Code and shall have the right to apply the Repurchase Assets or any proceeds therefrom to all Obligations.

                9.	
              PAYMENT, TRANSFER; ACCOUNTS AND CUSTODY

            

       

      (a)         Buyer’s Account.  Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, all transfers
          of funds to be made by Seller hereunder shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set off or counterclaim, to Buyer at the account maintained and indicated by Buyer not later than [***]New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall become due (and each such payment made after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).  Seller acknowledges that it has no
          rights of withdrawal from the foregoing account.

       

      (b)       Remittance of Purchase Price.  On the Purchase
          Date for each Transaction, ownership of the Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to Buyer or its designee against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase Price to the applicable Settlement Agent.  With respect to the Purchased Mortgage
          Loans being sold by Seller on a Purchase Date, Seller hereby sells, transfers, conveys and assigns to Buyer or its designee without recourse, but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all of the right, title and interest of Seller in and to the
          Purchased Mortgage Loans, including the related Mortgage File and Servicing Rights and all Income thereon, and all right, title, and interest of Seller in and to the proceeds of any related Repurchase Assets.  Buyer may confirm that the Initial
          Haircut Account Funded Amount has been deposited into the Haircut Account prior to its remittance of any amounts in accordance herewith.  Subject to Buyer’s verification of necessary cleared funds in the Haircut Account, Buyer shall remit to the
          Settlement Agent the full amount of the outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Mortgage Loan and shall withdraw and retain from the Haircut Account, the Haircut Amount.

       

      (c)         Reserve Account. Seller shall establish and maintain a Reserve Account, in the form of a deposit account. Buyer
        shall have exclusive withdrawal rights from such Reserve Account. The Reserve Account shall be established with Buyer. Seller shall deposit an amount equal to the Minimum Reserve Amount or other amount determined by Buyer. Funds deposited in the
        Reserve Account may be transferred as set forth herein. Any interest or other earnings on the investment of funds held in the Reserve Account shall be deposited in the Reserve Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant hereto. The Reserve Amount shall
        be held as cash margin and collateral for all Obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Margin Call or other Default exists, Buyer shall be entitled to use any or all of the  Reserve
        Amount to cure such circumstances or otherwise exercise remedies available to Buyer without prior notice to, or consent from, Seller.

       

      
        -37-

        
          

      

      (d)        Inbound Account.  Seller shall establish and maintain an Inbound Account identified in the Pricing
          Letter, in the form of a deposit account.  The Inbound Account shall be established with TIAA Bank.  Buyer shall have exclusive withdrawal rights from such Inbound Account.  Funds deposited in the Inbound Account may be transferred as set forth
          herein.  Any interest or other earnings on the investment of funds held in the Inbound Account shall be deposited in the Inbound Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant hereto.  All amounts on deposit in the Inbound Account shall be held as cash
          margin and collateral for all Obligations under this Agreement (such amount, to the extent not applied to Obligations under the Agreement, the “Repurchase Proceeds”).  In connection with any repurchase or purchase by a Takeout Investor of
          a Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall direct remittance of the proceeds therefor into the Inbound Account.  Seller shall be required to comply with all requirements in connection with any repurchase and remittance into the Inbound Account. 
          Upon receipt of any Repurchase Proceeds in the Inbound Account, Buyer shall apply such Repurchase Proceeds to the Repurchase Price for the related Purchased Mortgage Loans.  Any Repurchase Proceeds in excess of the Repurchase Price for the
          related Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be remitted to the Haircut Account, for application as contemplated pursuant to Section 9(e).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Margin Call or a Default has occurred and
          is continuing, Buyer shall be entitled to use any or all of the Repurchase Proceeds to cure such circumstance or otherwise exercise remedies available to Buyer without prior notice to, or consent from, Seller.

       

      (e)         Haircut Account.  Seller shall establish and maintain a Haircut Account identified in the Pricing Letter, in the form of a deposit account.  The Haircut Account shall be established with TIAA Bank.  Buyer shall have exclusive withdrawal rights
          from such Haircut Account.  Any interest or other earnings on the investment of funds held in the Haircut Account shall be deposited in the Haircut Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant hereto.  Buyer is hereby authorized and instructed by
          Seller to withdraw from the Haircut Account any and all amounts contemplated herein.  On each Purchase Date, Seller shall deposit the Initial Haircut Account Funded Amount into the Haircut Account.  Upon purchase by Buyer of the related Purchased
          Mortgage Loan, Buyer shall withdraw the Haircut Amount to reimburse itself for the difference between the actual amount remitted by Buyer on the Purchase Date on account of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and the Purchase Price for such Purchased
          Mortgage Loan.  Upon repurchase by Seller, or purchase by a Takeout Investor, of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, if there remain on deposit in the Inbound Account Excess Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan, then Buyer shall remit the Excess
          Proceeds to the Haircut Account and such Excess Proceeds shall be added to the Net Account Funded Amount for such Mortgage Loan.  Upon repurchase by Seller, or purchase by a Takeout Investor, of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, if there exists in the
          Inbound Account Shortfall Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan, then Buyer may withdraw from the Haircut Account the amount of any Shortfall Proceeds and such amount shall be deducted from the Net Account Funded Amount.  In addition to the
          foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withdraw from the Haircut Account all Warehouse Fees.  To the extent that, following application of all deposits and withdrawals as contemplated herein with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan
          that is repurchased by Seller or purchased by a Takeout Investor, (i) the Net Account Funded Amount for any such Mortgage Loan is a positive number, then such Net Account Funded Amount for such Mortgage Loan shall, subject to this section, be
          available for remittance to Seller upon written request therefor; and (ii) the Net Account Funded Amount for any such repurchased Mortgage Loan is a negative number, then Seller shall promptly remit to Buyer the amount of such Net Account Funded
          Amount for such Mortgage Loan.  Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent that the Net Account Funded Amount for any repurchased Mortgage Loan is a negative number, Buyer shall be entitled to withdraw, retain and apply any amounts on deposit
          in the Haircut Account up to the amount of such negative Net Account Funded Amount.  To the extent that the aggregate Net Account Funded Amounts (net of any amounts withdrawn as contemplated herein) for all repurchased Mortgage Loans exceeds the
          Surplus Amount, then Seller may, no more than once per Business Day, deliver a written request prior to [***]. (New York Time) for Buyer to
          remit any amount in excess of the Surplus Amount to Seller.  To the extent that there exists no Default, Buyer shall, upon receipt of such written request, remit any such amount in excess of the Surplus Amount to Seller.  Any interest or other
          earnings on the investment of funds deposited in the Haircut Account shall be deposited in the Haircut Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant hereto.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Margin Call or other
          Default exists, Buyer shall be entitled to use any or all of the amounts on deposit in the Haircut Account to cure such circumstance or otherwise exercise remedies available to Buyer without prior notice to, or consent from, Seller.

      (f)          Fees.  Seller shall pay in immediately available funds to Buyer and Custodian all fees, including
          without limitation, the Warehouse Fees, as and when required hereunder and under the Custodial Agreement.  All such payments shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Buyer at such
          account designated by Buyer.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer may withdraw and retain from the Haircut Account any Warehouse Fees due and owing to Buyer.

      Seller shall be solely responsible for providing each and every document required for each Mortgage File to Custodian in a timely manner and for
        completing or correcting any missing, incomplete or inconsistent documents, and neither Custodian nor Buyer shall be responsible or liable for taking any such action, causing Seller or any other person or entity to do so or notifying any Person
        that any such action has or has not been taken.

       

      
        -39-

        
          

      

      (b)          Release of Mortgage Files.  From time to time as appropriate for the sale or
          repurchase of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Buyer shall, upon receipt of a request for release through the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System and compliance with
          the requirements of the TIAA Bank Warehouse Customer Guide and the Custodial Agreement, release or cause Custodian to release to Seller the related Mortgage File or the documents of the related Mortgage File set forth in such request for
          release.  All Mortgage Files or documents from Mortgage Files so released to Seller shall be held by Seller in trust for the benefit of Buyer until the relevant Purchased Mortgage Loan is repurchased by Seller hereunder.

       

      In connection with the payment in full, sale or repurchase of any Mortgage Loan, and upon receipt by Buyer of such information through the TIAA Bank
        Warehouse Electronic System, and subject to Buyer receiving all amounts due on account of the Repurchase Price hereunder, and there existing no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer shall promptly release or cause the Custodian to

          be sent for delivery by Custodian to the applicable Takeout Investor specified by Seller to Buyer in the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System and to Custodian as required by the Custodial Agreement; provided that such Mortgage File shall be

          any Mortgage File to any potential Takeout Investor unless such Takeout Investor was identified by Seller to Buyer in the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System.

       

      In the event that a Takeout Investor rejects a Mortgage Loan for purchase pursuant to a Takeout Commitment for any reason whatsoever, Seller shall
        promptly notify Buyer via the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System upon receipt of notification from the Takeout Investor.

              REPRESENTATIONS

            

       

      Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that as of the Purchase Date for any Purchased Mortgage Loans by Buyer from Seller and as
        of the date of this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder and at all times while the Facility Documents are in full force and effect and/or any Transaction hereunder is outstanding:

       

      (a)          Acting as Principal.  Seller will engage in such Transactions as principal (or, if agreed in writing in advance
        of any Transaction by the other party hereto, as agent for a disclosed principal).

       

      
        -40-

        
          

      

      (b)          No Broker.  Seller has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent, or other person, except
          for Buyer, who may be entitled to any commission or compensation based on or arising from the sale of Purchased Mortgage Loans by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.  The foregoing representation and warranty does not relate to third
          party mortgage brokers to whom compensation may be payable by Seller for the origination of a Purchased Mortgage Loan, such payments being the sole responsibility of Seller.

       

      (c)          Financial Statements.  The Financial Reporting Party has heretofore
          furnished to Buyer a copy of its (a) consolidated and consolidating balance sheet and the consolidated and consolidating balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended the Annual Financial Statement Date and the
        related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Financial Reporting Party and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous
        year, with the opinion thereon of an Approved CPA and (b) consolidated and consolidating balance sheet and the consolidated and consolidating balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the quarterly fiscal period of the Financial Reporting
        Party ended on the Monthly Financial Statement Date, and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Financial Reporting Party and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such quarterly fiscal period,
        setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year.  All such Financial Statements are true and correct and fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Financial Reporting
        Party and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations as at such dates and for such monthly periods, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.  Since the Annual Financial Statement Date, there has been no
        material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of the Financial Reporting Party and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in said Financial Statements nor is Seller aware of any state of facts which (without notice or the lapse of time) would be reasonably likely to result in any such material adverse change or would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Financial Reporting Party does not have, on the Annual Financial Statement Date, any liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by,
          or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of the Financial Reporting Party except as heretofore

          as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; (iii) is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each
          jurisdiction in which qualification is required to transact business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any applicable federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in either instance, the failure to take
          such action is not reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect; and (iv) has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Facility Documents.

          Law, rule or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or other Governmental Authority to which Seller or its property is subject, or its organizational documents, (d) do not violate any indenture, agreement, document or
          instrument to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or by which any of them or any of their properties, any of the Repurchase Assets is bound or to which any of them is subject and (e) are not in conflict with, do not result in a

          its Subsidiaries pursuant to, any such indenture, agreement, document or instrument.  Seller is not required to obtain any consent, approval or authorization from, or to file any declaration or statement with, any Governmental Authority in
          connection with or as a condition to the consummation of the Transactions contemplated herein and the execution, delivery or performance of the Facility Documents to which it is a party, or if required, such consent, approval or authorization or
          other action has been obtained prior to the Effective Date.  With respect to any and all Records or Electronic Records submitted or transmitted to Buyer including, but not limited to, fax copies of Records or Electronic Records, Seller represents
          and warrants that any party who submitted or transmitted Records or Electronic Records or who submitted or transmitted Records or Electronic Records containing Seller’s signature or Seller’s Electronic Signature was authorized to do so.

          Facility Documents or any action to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to be adversely determined and if adversely determined, would have a Material
          Adverse Effect or (iii) relates to any violation of the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act or any state, city or district high cost home mortgage or predatory lending law and that would be reasonably likely to be adversely determined and if
          adversely determined, would have a Material Adverse Effect.

          reports, Financial Statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in writing by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer in connection with the negotiation, preparation or delivery of this Agreement or performance hereof and the other Facility Documents to
          which it is a party or included herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, as of the date provided, when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make
          the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  There is no fact known to Seller, after due inquiry, that would reasonably be expected
        to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been disclosed herein, in the other Facility Documents or in a report, Financial Statement, exhibit, schedule, disclosure letter or other writing furnished to Buyer
          for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

          each Transaction, Seller and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are solvent and, after giving effect to each Transaction will not be rendered insolvent by such Transaction or left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage
          in their business.  Seller does not intend to incur, nor does it believe that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature.  Seller is not contemplating the commencement of an insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, or

      (e)         Without limiting the rights of Buyer hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable
          rights available to Buyer for Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Buyer shall be entitled

          documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith.  Seller agrees to pay promptly after being billed by Buyer all of the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the consummation

      (b)          Seller shall service and administer the Purchased Mortgage Loans on behalf of Buyer

          master servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with all of the related Records in its possession, to Buyer’s designee upon the earliest of (w) the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder which is continuing, (x) the termination of
          Seller as servicer by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, (y) the expiration (and non-renewal) of the Servicing Term, or (z) the transfer of servicing to any entity approved by Buyer and the assumption thereof by such entity.  Buyer shall have the
          right to terminate Seller as master servicer (and any Subservicer as subservicer) of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, which right shall be exercisable at any time in Buyer’s sole discretion, upon written notice.  In addition, Seller shall
          deliver the physical and contractual master servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with all of the related Records in its possession to Buyer’s designee, upon expiration of the Servicing Term; provided that the Servicing Term and
          such delivery requirement will be deemed renewed  for a like period on the last day of the Servicing Term, and on the last day of each such renewed Servicing Term, in the absence of directions to the contrary from Buyer; provided further that such delivery requirement will no longer apply to any Mortgage Loan, and Seller shall have no further obligation to service such Mortgage Loan as agent for
          Buyer, upon receipt by Buyer of the Repurchase Price therefor.  Seller’s transfer of the Records and the physical and contractual servicing under this Section shall be in accordance with customary standards in the industry and such transfer shall
          include the transfer of the gross amount of all escrows held for the related mortgagors (without reduction for unreimbursed advances or “negative escrows”).

       

      (e)         During the period Seller is servicing the Purchased Mortgage Loans as agent for
          Buyer, Seller agrees that Buyer is the owner of the related Credit Files and Records and Seller shall at all times maintain and safeguard and cause any Subservicer to maintain and safeguard the Credit File for the Purchased Mortgage Loan
          (including photocopies or images of the documents delivered to Buyer), and accurate and complete records of its servicing of the Mortgage Loan; Seller’s possession of the Credit Files and Servicing Records being for the sole purpose of master
          servicing such Mortgage Loans and such retention and possession by Seller being in a custodial capacity only.  Seller hereby grants Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees to secure the obligations of Seller and any Subservicer to service
          in conformity with this Section and any related Servicing Agreement.

       

      (f)          At Buyer’s reasonable request, Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer reports
          regarding the status of any Mortgage Loan being serviced by Seller, which reports shall include, but shall not be limited to, a description of any default thereunder for more than thirty (30) days or such other circumstances that are reasonably
          likely to cause a Material Adverse Effect on such Mortgage Loan, Buyer’s title to such Mortgage Loan or the collateral securing such Mortgage Loan; Seller may be required to deliver such reports until the repurchase of the Mortgage Loan by
          Seller.  Seller shall immediately notify Buyer if it becomes aware of any payment default that occurs under the Mortgage Loan or any default under any Servicing Agreement that would materially and adversely affect any Mortgage Loan subject
          thereto.

       

      
        -60-

        
          

      

      (g)          Seller shall release its custody of the contents of any Credit File or Mortgage
          File only (i) in accordance with the written instructions of Buyer, (ii) upon the consent of Buyer when such release is required as incidental to Seller’s servicing of the Mortgage Loan, is required to complete the Takeout Commitment or comply
          with the Takeout Commitment requirements, or (iii) as required by Requirements of Law.

       

      (h)       Buyer reserves the right to appoint a successor servicer
          at any time to service any Purchased Mortgage Loan (each a “Successor Servicer”) in its sole discretion. If Buyer elects to make such an appointment due to an Event of Default that is continuing, Seller shall be assessed all costs and
          expenses incurred by Buyer associated with transferring the Purchased Mortgage Loans to the Successor Servicer. In the event of such an appointment, Seller shall perform all acts and take all action so that any part of the Credit File and related
          Records held by Seller, together with all Income and other receipts relating to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, are promptly delivered to Successor Servicer, and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with Buyer in effectuating such transfer. Seller
          shall have no claim for lost servicing income, lost profits or other damages if Buyer appoints a Successor Servicer hereunder and the servicing fee is reduced or eliminated.

       

      (i)          For the avoidance of doubt, Seller retains no economic rights to the servicing of
          the Purchased Mortgage Loans provided that Seller shall continue to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans hereunder as part of its Obligations hereunder. As such, Seller expressly acknowledges that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are sold to Buyer on a “servicing released” basis. Upon Seller’s repurchase of any Purchased Mortgage Loan pursuant hereto, Buyer’s transfer of such Mortgage
          Loan back to Seller shall likewise be on a “servicing released” basis.

       

      	SECTION 17.	
              DUE DILIGENCE

            

       

      Seller acknowledges that Buyer or any third party designated by Buyer (including Buyer’s regulators) has the right to perform continuing
          due diligence reviews with respect to the Mortgage Loans and Seller, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees

          that upon reasonable prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine,
          inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Files and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession or under the control of Seller or Custodian.  Seller also
          shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Mortgage Loans.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that
          Buyer may purchase Mortgage Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the
          right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Mortgage Loans purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering broker’s price opinions, new credit reports and new appraisals on the
          related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re‐generating the information used to originate such Mortgage Loan.  Buyer may underwrite such Mortgage Loans itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such
          underwriting.  Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents,
          records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller or Custodian.  Seller further agrees that Seller shall pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer and Custodian in connection
          with Buyer’s activities pursuant to this Section 17 subject to a cap with respect to Buyer of [***]for any [***]period (“Due Diligence Costs”); provided
          that the Due Diligence Cap shall not apply at any time that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

      	SECTION 18.	
              ASSIGNABILITY

            

       

      The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Buyer.  Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. 
          Nothing in this Agreement express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement and their successors hereunder, any benefit of any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under this Agreement. Buyer may
          from time to time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Facility Documents pursuant to an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the
          percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned.  Upon such assignment, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Facility Document to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance,
          and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Buyer hereunder, and (b) Buyer shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by it be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Facility
          Documents.  Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Buyer in writing.  Buyer may distribute to any prospective assignee any document or
          other information delivered to Buyer by Seller under an appropriate confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement.

       

      Buyer may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however,
        that (x) Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (y) Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (z) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with
        Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents except as provided in Section 7.

       

      Buyer may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 18, disclose to the
        assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, as the case may be, any information relating to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller or any of
        its Subsidiaries; provided that such assignee or participant agrees to hold such information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

       

      
        -62-

        
          

      

      In the event Buyer assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith an
        amendment to this Agreement to add agency provisions similar to those included in Agreements for similar syndicated repurchase facilities.

       

      	SECTION 19.	
              TRANSFER AND MAINTENANCE OF REGISTER

            

       

      (a)         Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
          Section 19, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
          obligations of Buyer under this Agreement.  Any assignment or transfer by Buyer of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 19 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Buyer of a
          participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 19(b) hereof.

       

      (b)       Seller shall maintain a register (the “Register”) within which it will record
          Buyer’s rights hereunder, and each Assignment and Acceptance and participation.  The Register shall include the names and addresses of Buyer (including all assignees, successors and participants) and the percentage or portion of such rights and
          obligations assigned.  Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller’s obligations in respect of such rights.  If Buyer sells a participation in its rights hereunder, it shall provide Seller, or
          maintain as agent of Seller, the information described in this paragraph and permit Seller to review such information as reasonably needed for Seller to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable Requirements of Law.

       

      	SECTION 20.	
              HYPOTHECATION OR PLEDGE OF PURCHASED MORTGAGE LOANS

            

       

      Title to all Purchased Mortgage Loans and Repurchase Assets shall pass to Buyer and Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Mortgage
        Loans.  Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans to any
        Person, including without limitation, the Federal Home Loan Bank.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered to Buyer by Seller.

       

      	SECTION 21.	
              TAX AND ACCOUNTING TREATMENT

            

       

      Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes, and for
        accounting purposes, to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans and that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are owned by Seller in the absence of a Default by Seller.  All parties to this Agreement
        agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by applicable Requirements of Law or GAAP.

      	SECTION 22.	
              SET-OFF

            

       

      In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer shall have the right during such times as an Event of Default
          has occurred and is continuing, without prior notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set-off and appropriate and
        apply against any Obligation from Seller, or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return
        excess margin), credits, indebtedness or claims or cash, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the
        credit or the account of Seller or any Affiliate thereof.  Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller after any such set off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and
        application.

       

      In addition to any rights provided elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Facility Document, Buyer shall at any time have the right, in each case
        until such time as Buyer determines otherwise, to retain, to suspend payment or performance of, or to decline to remit, any amount or property that Buyer would otherwise be obligated to pay, remit or deliver to Seller hereunder if an Event of
        Default has occurred that is continuing.

       

      	SECTION 23.	
              TERMINABILITY

            

       

      Each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made by entering into a Transaction, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such
        representation and warranty, and Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default that may arise because any such representation or warranty shall have proved to be false or misleading, notwithstanding that Buyer may have
        had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time the Transaction was made.  Notwithstanding any such termination or the occurrence of an Event of Default, all of the
        representations and warranties and covenants hereunder shall continue and survive.

       

      	SECTION 24.	
              NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS

            

       

      Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, all notices, requests and other communications provided for herein (including without
        limitation any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including without limitation by electronic transmission) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices”
        specified below its name on the signature pages hereof or thereof); or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. In all cases, to the extent that the related individual set
        forth in the respective “Attention” line is no longer employed by the respective Person, such notice may be given to the attention of a Responsible Officer of the respective Person or to the attention of such individual or individuals as
        subsequently notified in writing by a Responsible Officer of the respective Person.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except for notices given under Section 3 (which shall be effective only on receipt), all such communications
        shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when transmitted during business hours at the recipient’s place of business by email (if an email address for such purpose is provided for such Person), (b) when delivered, if delivered by hand (including
        by courier or overnight delivery service), or (c) in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

                25.	
              USE OF THE TIAA BANK WAREHOUSE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM AND OTHER ELECTRONIC MEDIA

            

       

      Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer may require or permit certain transactions with Buyer be conducted electronically using Electronic Records
        and/or Electronic Signatures. Seller consents to the use of Electronic Records and/or Electronic Signatures whenever expressly required or permitted by Buyer and acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall be bound by its Electronic Signature and by
        the terms, conditions, requirements, information and/or instructions contained in any such Electronic Records.

       

      Seller agrees to adopt as its Electronic Signature its user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers, access codes, a facsimile
        image of a written signature and/or other symbols or processes as provided or required by Buyer from time to time (as a group, any subgroup thereof or individually, hereinafter referred to as Seller’s Electronic Signature). Seller acknowledges that
        Buyer will rely on any and all Electronic Records and on Seller’s Electronic Signature transmitted or submitted to Buyer.

       

      Buyer shall not be liable for the failure of either its or Seller’s internet service provider, or any other telecommunications
        company, telephone company, satellite company or cable company to timely, properly and accurately transmit any Electronic Record or fax copy.

       

      Before engaging in Electronic Transactions with Seller, Buyer may provide Seller, or require Seller to create, user identification codes, passwords,
        personal identification numbers and/or access codes, as applicable, to permit access to Buyer’s computer information processing system. Each Person permitted access to the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System must have a separate identification
        code and password.  Seller shall be fully responsible for protecting and safeguarding any and all user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers and access codes provided or required by Buyer. Seller shall adopt and maintain
        security measures to prevent the loss, theft or unauthorized or improper disclosure or use of any and all user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers and/or access codes by Persons other than the individual Person who is
        authorized to use such information. Seller shall notify Buyer immediately in the event (a) of any loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure or use of any of the user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers and/or access codes
        or (b) Seller has any reason to believe there has been a breach of security or that its access to TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System is no longer secure for any reason.

       

      Seller understands and agrees that it shall be fully responsible for protecting and safeguarding its computer hardware and software from any and all (x)
        computer “viruses,” “time bombs,” “trojan horses” or other harmful computer information, commands, codes or programs that may cause or facilitate the destruction, corruption, malfunction or appropriation of, or damage or change to, any of Seller’s
        or Buyer’s computer information processing systems, including without limitation, all hardware, software, Electronic Records, information, data and/or codes and (y) computer “worms,” “trap doors” or other harmful computer information, commands,
        codes or programs that enable unauthorized access to Seller’s and/or Buyer’s computer information processing systems, including without limitation, all hardware, software, Electronic Records, information, data and/or codes.

       

      
        -65-

        
          

      

      Seller agrees that Buyer may, in its sole discretion and from time to time, without limiting Seller’s liability set forth herein, establish minimum
        security standards that Seller must, at a minimum, comply with in an effort to (aa) protect and safeguard any and all user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers and/or access codes from loss, theft or unauthorized
        disclosure or use; and (bb) prevent the infiltration and “infection” of Seller’s hardware and/or software by any and all computer “viruses,” “time bombs,” “trojan horses,” “worms,” “trapdoors” or other harmful computer codes or programs.

       

      If Buyer, from time to time, establishes minimum security standards, Seller shall comply with such minimum security standards within the time period
        established by Buyer. Buyer shall have the right to confirm Seller’s compliance with any such minimum security standards. Seller’s compliance with such minimum security standards shall not relieve Seller from any of its liability set forth herein.

       

      Whether or not Buyer establishes minimum security standards, Seller shall continue to be fully responsible for adopting and maintaining security
        measures that are consistent with the risks associated with conducting electronic transactions with Buyer. Seller’s failure to adopt and maintain appropriate security measures or to comply with any minimum security standards established by Buyer
        may result in, among other things, termination of Seller’s access to Buyer’s computer information processing systems.

       

      Seller understands and agrees that certain elements or components of the TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic System may be provided by third
          party vendors, and, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Buyer, hereby holds Buyer harmless from any liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind which
          may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Seller relating to or arising out of Seller’s use of the TIAA Bank Warehouse System including, without limitation, the use or failure of any elements or components provided by third party
          vendors.  Nothing herein shall, however, deprive Seller of any remedies it may have against such third party vendors.

       

      	SECTION 26.	
              ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY; SINGLE AGREEMENT

            

       

      This Agreement, together with the Facility Documents, constitute the entire agreement and understanding between Buyer and Seller
        with respect to the subject matter they cover and shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions involving Purchased Mortgage Loans.  By acceptance of this Agreement,
        Buyer and Seller each acknowledge that they have not made, and are not relying upon, any statements, representations, promises or undertakings not contained in this Agreement.  Each provision and agreement herein
          shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

       

      
        -66-

        
          

      

      Buyer and Seller acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in
          reliance upon the fact that all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and that each has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions.  Accordingly, each of Buyer and Seller agrees
        (a) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions
          hereunder, (b) that Buyer shall be entitled to set off claims and apply property held by it in respect of any Transaction against obligations owing to it in respect of any other Transaction hereunder, (c) that payments, deliveries, and other
          transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries, and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such
          payments, deliveries, and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted, and (d) to promptly provide notice to the other after any such set off or application.

              CONFIDENTIALITY

            

       

      Each of Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledge and agree that all written or computer-readable information provided by one party to any other regarding the terms set forth in any of the Facility Documents or the Transactions contemplated thereby (the “Confidential Terms”) shall be kept
          confidential and shall not be divulged to any Person (other than the Custodian) without the prior written consent of such other party except to the extent that (a) it is necessary to do so in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing
          authorities or other governmental agencies or regulatory bodies or in order to comply with any applicable federal or state laws, process, or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange, (b) any of the Confidential Terms are in the public
          domain other than due to a breach of this covenant, (c) any assignee or participant or any prospective assignee or prospective participant who has agreed in a written contract to comply with the requirements of this Section 30 or (d) in the event
          of an Event of Default that is continuing Buyer determines such information to be necessary to disclose in connection with the marketing and sales of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise to enforce or exercise Buyer’s rights hereunder. 
          Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Facility Document, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of
          the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment
          and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that neither Seller nor Buyer may disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to the other or any pricing terms (including, without limitation, the Pricing
          Rate, Warehouse Fees, Purchase Price Percentage and Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the
          Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of the other, provided that Seller may identify Buyer and the Maximum Purchase Amount to its
          lenders under other facilities and its other third party creditors.  The provisions set forth in this Section 30 shall survive the termination of this
          Agreement.

       

      
        -68-

        
          

      

      Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, both Seller and Buyer shall
        comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without limitation, all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Purchased Assets and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential

          Information”).  Seller and Buyer understand that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
        (the “GLB Act”), and each agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws.  Seller and
          Buyer shall each implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information” of the “customers”
        and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the GLB Act) of such party or any Affiliate of such party which that party holds, (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and
        integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information. Seller and Buyer shall, at a minimum establish and
        maintain such data security program as is necessary to meet the objectives of the Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information issued by the Federal Trade Commission as set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 16 C.F.R. Part 314 or
        Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information as set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations at 12 C.F.R. Parts 30, 168, 170, 208, 211, 225, 263, 308, and 364.  Upon request, Seller or Buyer, as applicable will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow the requesting party to confirm that the non-requesting party has
        satisfied its obligations as required under this Section.  Without limitation, this may include the requesting party’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of the non-requesting party.  Seller and Buyer each shall notify the other promptly following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or
        integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of the non-notifying party or any Affiliate of the non-notifying party provided
        directly to the notifying party by the non-notifying party or such Affiliate.  The notifying party shall provide such notice to the non-notifying party by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.  The provisions set
          forth in this Section 30 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

      	SECTION 31.	
              INTENT

            

       

      (a)          The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that
          term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and that all payments hereunder are deemed
          “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code.

       

      (b)         It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Mortgage Loans
          delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 14 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States
          Code, as amended.

       

      (c)         The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository
          institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” a “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract” as such terms are
          defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder.

       

      (d)        It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in
          and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment
          entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

              DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS

            

       

      The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

       

      (a)         in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer
          registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the
          Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

       

      (b)         in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities
          broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

       

      (c)        in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution,
          funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

          other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by e-mailed “.pdf file” or other electronic
          method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

          amended from time to time without consent or assent by Seller and such amendments shall be effective immediately upon notice to Seller of the change (whether that notice is sent individually or posted to TIAA Bank Warehouse Electronic
        System) and Mortgage Loans sold to Buyer after the effective date of any such amendment shall be governed by the revised TIAA Bank Warehouse Customer Guide; provided
          that amendments shall only apply to Transactions following the date of such notice of amendment and Seller shall have a commercially reasonable time to implement changes required by any such amendments unless such amendment is required by a
          Governmental Authority and such Governmental Authority mandates immediate implementation.

      SCHEDULE 1

       

      SCHEDULE OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING MORTGAGE LOANS

       

      Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, with respect to each Mortgage Loan submitted for purchase under the Agreement, that as of the Purchase Date for
        the purchase of such Mortgage Loans by Buyer from Seller and as of the date of this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder and at all times while the Facility Documents and any Transaction hereunder is in full force and effect, that the following
        are true and correct.  For purposes of this Schedule 1 and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Mortgage Loan if and when Seller has taken
        or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Mortgage Loan.  With respect to those representations and warranties which are made to the best of Seller’s
        knowledge, if it is discovered by Seller or Buyer that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate, notwithstanding Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy
        shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty.  For the purposes of this Schedule 1, Seller agrees that (i) all references to acts and omissions of “Seller” shall be deemed to include all acts and omissions of any third
        party from whom Seller acquired any Mortgage Loan and (ii) to the extent that any representation or warranty is made to the Seller’s knowledge or to the best of Seller’s knowledge, such qualification shall not be applicable with respect to the acts
        or omissions of such third party from whom Seller acquired any Mortgage Loan.

       

      A.          Underwriting Guidelines.  Each Mortgage Loan conforms to the specifications set forth by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the Underwriting Guidelines, Buyer, Takeout Investor,
        Agency, and any insurer regulations, rules, guides and handbooks for loans eligible for sale to, insurance by or pooling to back securities issued or guaranteed by, a Takeout Investor, Buyer, an Agency, or insurer, as applicable.  Each Conforming Mortgage Loan is eligible as collateral for Ginnie
        Mae mortgage backed securities or is eligible for purchase by an Agency.

       

      B.          Mortgage Loans as Described. 

          The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is complete, true and correct.

       

      C.          No Defenses.  The
          Mortgage Loan, and the Assignment of Proprietary Lease related to each Co-op Loan, is not subject to any right of rescission, set‐off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of
          the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has
          been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor was a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at, or subsequent to, the time the Mortgage Loan was originated.

       

      
        Sch. 1-1

        
          

      

      D.         Disbursement.  The
          Mortgage Loan has been closed and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed, there is no requirement for future advances thereunder, any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvements have been
          complied with, and any disbursements of any escrow funds have been made.  All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making, or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid to the appropriate parties, the mortgage insurance
          premium or the VA guarantee fee has been paid as applicable, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

       

      E.          Payments and Advances.  Seller has not, and to the best of Seller’s knowledge no Person has, advanced funds, or induced, solicited or received any advance of funds by a Person other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment
          of any amount required under or to obtain the Mortgage Loan, or any tax, insurance, special assessment, sewer, utility or similar payments with respect to the Mortgaged Property.  The Mortgagor has made any down payment required in connection with the Mortgage Loan, and has received no concession from Seller, the seller of the Mortgaged Property or any other third Person, except as clearly
          disclosed in the Mortgage File and in writing to Buyer.  No subordinate financing was used in the Mortgagor’s acquisition of the property securing the Mortgage Loan other than subordinate financing acceptable to Buyer, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae, HUD, VA or applicable Takeout Investor pursuant to their requirements in effect at the time of purchase of the Mortgage Loan by the Buyer.

       

      F.          Compliance with Requirements
              of Law.  Any and all Requirements of Law, including, but not limited to, usury, truth in lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity, disclosure, unfair and deceptive practices
          laws or privacy laws, applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been satisfied and complied with, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any Requirements of Law.  Seller shall maintain in its
          possession, available for Buyer’s inspection, and shall deliver to Buyer upon reasonable demand, evidence of compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law.

       

      G.          Co-op Loan:  Compliance with
              Law.  With respect to each Co-op Loan, the related cooperative corporation that owns title to the related cooperative apartment building is a “cooperative housing corporation” within the meaning of Section 216 of the Code, and is
          in material compliance with applicable Requirements of Law which, if not complied with, could have a material adverse effect on the Mortgaged Property.

       

      H.          Mortgage Insurance. 
          There are no defenses, counterclaims, or rights of setoff, or other facts or circumstances affecting the eligibility of the Mortgage Loans for insurance by an insurer, or affecting the validity or enforceability of any mortgage insurance or
          mortgage guaranty with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of any act, error or omission of Seller or of any other Person including, but not limited to, the FHA insurance.  The related FHA policy calls for the assignment of the Mortgage Loan
          to FHA as opposed to the co-insurance option.  The entire amount of the insurance premium has been paid to FHA in accordance with the FHA Regulations and no portion of such premium is shared with or by Seller or, if the monthly premium option has
          been chosen for such Mortgage Loan, all such premiums due on or before the related Purchase Date have been duly and timely paid.

       

      
        Sch. 1-2

        
          

      

      I.          Damage; Condemnation. 
          There is no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property and such Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect
          adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan, the use for which the Mortgaged Property was intended or the eligibility of the Mortgage Loan for full payment of insurance benefits, and there are no pending or, to
          the knowledge of Seller, threatened proceedings for total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property.  Each Mortgaged Property is in good repair.  Seller has completed any property inspections required by FHA Regulations, other
          Requirements of Law, and such inspections, if any, show no evidence of property damage or deferred maintenance, unless the property damage and deferred maintenance was considered part of the initial Repair Set Aside Account disclosed in the
          Mortgage File at closing.

       

      J.          Type of Mortgaged Property.  The Mortgaged Property is located in the state identified in the Mortgage File and consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single-family residence erected thereon, or a two-to-four-family dwelling, a townhouse, or an individual condominium unit in a condominium, or a Co-op Unit, or an individual unit in a planned unit development, or an individual  or a manufactured home on owned or leased land; provided, however, that any condominium unit,
          Co-op Project or planned unit development conforms with Takeout Investor and insurer requirements with respect to such dwellings, and that no residence or dwelling is a mobile home.  If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a unit in a
          planned unit development (other than a de minimis planned unit development) or a Co-op Unit such condominium or planned unit development project is (i) acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac or (ii) located in a condominium or planned unit
          development project which has received project approval from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The representations and warranties required by Fannie Mae with respect to such condominium or planned unit development have been satisfied and remain true
          and correct.  No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial purposes provided, that Mortgaged Properties which contain a home office shall not be considered as being used for commercial purposes as long as the Mortgaged Property has
          not been altered for commercial purposes and is not storing any chemicals or raw materials other than those commonly used for homeowner repair, maintenance and/or household purposes.

       

      K.          Leaseholds.  If
          the Mortgage Loan is secured by a long term residential lease, (1) the lessor under the lease holds a fee simple interest in the land; (2) the terms of such lease expressly permit the mortgaging of the leasehold estate, the assignment of the
          lease without the lessor’s consent and the acquisition by the holder of the Mortgage of the rights of the lessee upon foreclosure or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or provide the holder of the Mortgage with substantially similar protections;
          (3) the terms of such lease do not (a) allow the termination thereof upon the lessee’s default without the holder of the Mortgage being entitled to receive written notice of, and opportunity to cure, such default, (b) allow the termination of the
          lease in the event of damage or destruction as long as the Mortgage is in existence, (c) prohibit the holder of the Mortgage from being insured (or receiving proceeds of insurance) under the hazard insurance policy or policies relating to the
          Mortgaged Property or (d) permit any increase in rent other than pre-established increases set forth in the lease; (4) the original term of such lease is not less than 15 years; (5) the term of such lease does not terminate earlier than five
          years after the maturity date of the Mortgage Note; and (6) the Mortgaged Property is located in a jurisdiction in which the use of leasehold estates in transferring ownership in residential properties is a widely accepted practice.

       

      
        Sch. 1-3

        
          

      

      L.          Good Title. 
          Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loan to the Buyer, the Mortgage Loan is not assigned or pledged, and Seller has good, indefeasible, and marketable title thereto, and Seller is the sole owner and holder of the
          Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness evidenced by each Mortgage Note (and with respect to any Co-op Loan, the sole owner of the related Assignment of Proprietary Lease), free and clear of any and all Liens, of any nature, and there has been no
          other sale, transfer, or assignment of security interest granted by the Seller to any other party, nor are there any other restrictions limiting the transfer of the Mortgage Loan, and Seller has full right, title and authority, subject to no
          interest or participation of, agreement with, or approval of, any other Person, to sell, assign and transfer the Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the sale of each Mortgage Loan, the Buyer will own such Mortgage Loan free and
          clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, Lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest.  Seller intends to relinquish all rights to possess, control and monitor each Mortgage Loan.

       

      M.        Co-op Loan:  No Pledge. 
          With respect to each Co-op Loan, there is no prohibition against pledging the shares of the cooperative corporation or assigning the Proprietary Lease. With respect to each Co-op Loan, (i) the term of the related Proprietary Lease is longer than
          the term of the Co-op Loan, (ii) there is no provision in any Proprietary Lease which requires the Mortgagor to offer for sale the Co-op Shares owned by such Mortgagor first to the Co-op Corporation, (iii) there is no prohibition in any
          Proprietary Lease against pledging the Co-op Shares or assigning the Proprietary Lease and (iv) the Recognition Agreement is on a form of agreement published by Aztech Document Systems, Incas of the date hereof or includes provisions which are no
          less favorable to the lender than those contained in such agreement.

       

      N.         No Litigation. 
          There is no pending and, to the knowledge of Seller, no threatened litigation, which may affect in any way, by attachment or otherwise, the title or interest of the Seller in and to the Mortgage Loan, the property securing the Mortgage Loan, or
          any related note or security instrument.

       

      O.        Mortgage File.  The
          Mortgage File contains each of the documents and instruments required by the Custodial Agreement and by applicable Requirements of Law or the related Takeout Investor or insurer requirements, duly executed and in due and proper form and each such
          document or instrument is genuine and in form acceptable to Takeout Investors and insurers and the information contained therein is true, accurate and complete.  The Mortgage Loan was originated in accordance with Takeout Investor and insurer
          underwriting standards in effect at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated.

       

      P.        Occupancy; Inspection. 
          As of the Purchase Date, the Mortgaged Property is or will be lawfully occupied under all applicable Requirements of Law.  All inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the
          Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities.

       

      
        Sch. 1-4

        
          

      

      Q.        No Outstanding Charges. 
          There are no defaults in complying with the terms of the Mortgage Loan, and all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have
          been paid, or an escrow of funds or a tax and insurance set-aside has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.

       

      R.          Original Terms Unmodified.  The terms of the Mortgage Note (and the Proprietary Lease and the Pledge Instruments with respect to each Co-op Loan) and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by a
          written instrument that has: (a) been recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of Buyer; and (b) been delivered to the Custodian.  The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the issuer of any related
          mortgage insurance and the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and, as applicable, its terms are reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.  No Mortgagor has been released in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the issuer of any related private mortgage insurance policy and the title insurer to the extent required by the policy, and which
          assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

       

      S.          No Satisfaction of Mortgage. 
          The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the Lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would
          effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission.  Seller has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has
          Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor.

       

      T.         Valid First Lien. 
          The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first Lien on the Mortgaged Property including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems
          located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing.  There is no delinquent tax or assessment Lien against the Mortgaged Property, and the Seller has paid all
          property tax bills.  The Lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

       

      (a)          the Lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

       

      (b)        covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters
          of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and: (i) referred
          to or to otherwise considered in the Appraisal relating to the Mortgage Loan; or (ii) that do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such Appraisal; and

       

      
        Sch. 1-5

        
          

      

      (c)          other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not
          materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.

       

      Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a
        valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first priority Lien on the Mortgaged Property described therein and Seller has full right to sell and assign the same to the Buyer in accordance with the Requirements of Law and any and all contractual
        obligations.  The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, unless otherwise indicated, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a Lien subordinate to the
        Lien of the Mortgage.

       

      U.         Co-op Loan:  Valid First Lien. 
          With respect to each Co-op Loan, the related Mortgage is a valid, enforceable and subsisting first security interest on the related cooperative shares securing the related cooperative note and lease, subject only to (a) liens of the cooperative
          for unpaid assessments representing the Mortgagor’s pro rata share of the cooperative’s payments for its blanket mortgage, current and future real property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to which like collateral
          is commonly subject and (b) other matters to which like collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the security interest.  There are no liens against or security
          interests in the cooperative shares relating to each Co-op Loan (except for unpaid maintenance, assessments and other amounts owed to the related cooperative which individually or in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on such
          Co-op Loan), which have priority equal to or over the Seller’s security interest in such Co-op Shares.

       

      V.          No Fraud.  The
          Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor in connection with a Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in accordance with
          its terms.  All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement, and
          the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other such related agreement have been duly and properly executed by such Persons.  No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence having a material adverse impact was
          committed in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

       

      W.          Title Insurance.  Each Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy, or with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in California, a CLTA lender’s title insurance
          policy, or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance, issued by a title insurer qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns: (a) as to the first
          priority Lien of the Mortgage; and (b) against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the Lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for
          adjustment in the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment with respect to each Adjustable Rate Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (a), (b), and (c) of Part T of this Schedule 1.  Where required by state Requirements of
          Law applicable to Seller, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance.  Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against
          encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein.  The Seller, and its successors and assigns, are the sole insured of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and in full
          force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the Mortgage, including
          Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything that would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy.  With respect to each manufactured home, a search for filings of financing statements has been made by a company competent to
          do same and such search has not found anything which would materially and adversely affect the Mortgage Loan secured by a manufactured home including, but not limited to, the priority of the Lien or perfection of the Mortgage Loan secured by a
          manufactured home.

       

      
        Sch. 1-6

        
          

      

      X.         Hazard Insurance. 
          For each Mortgage Loan, pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, all buildings or other improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer acceptable to the Buyer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other
          hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, as are provided for by Fannie Mae or by Freddie Mac, as well as all additional requirements set forth in the Underwriting Guidelines.  Mortgagor has obtained coverage
          in an amount which is at least equal to the full insurable value of the improvements on the Mortgaged Property.  The policy either includes provisions for inflation adjustments or guaranteed replacement cost coverage of the Mortgaged Property. 
          In the case of flood insurance, Mortgagor has obtained the maximum amount of insurance that is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968.  If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property was in an area identified
          in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal
          Insurance Administration is in effect which policy conforms to all Requirements of Law and applicable insurer and Takeout Investor requirements.  All individual insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller and its
          successors and assigns as mortgagee, and all premiums thereon have been paid.  The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance policy at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so,
          authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at such Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor.  Where required by state Requirements of Law applicable to Seller, the
          Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development.  The hazard
          insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of Buyer upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
          Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s or any servicer’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity
          and binding effect of either.

       

      Y.          No Default.  The
          Mortgage Loan is current and all payments have been made within the month such payments were due, and if the Mortgage Loan is a Co-op Loan, no foreclosure action or private or public sale under the Uniform Commercial Code has ever, to the
          knowledge of the Seller, been threatened or commenced with respect to the Co-op Loan.  There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event that, with the passage of time or
          with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and neither Seller nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.  With
          respect to each Co-op Loan, there is no default in complying with the terms of the Mortgage Note, the Assignment of Proprietary Lease and the Proprietary Lease and all maintenance charges and assessments (including assessments payable in the
          future installments, which previously became due and owing) have been paid, and the Seller has the right under the terms of the Mortgage Note, Assignment of Proprietary Lease and Recognition Agreement to pay any maintenance charges or assessments
          owed by the Mortgagor.

       

      
        Sch. 1-7

        
          

      

      Z.          No Mechanics’ Liens. 
          There are no mechanics’ or similar Liens or claims that have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such Liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property that are or may be Liens
          prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the Lien of the related Mortgage.

       

      AA.       Location of Improvements. 
          All improvements that were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon
          the Mortgaged Property.  No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation.

       

      BB.        Customary Provisions.  The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security
          provided thereby, including: (a) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale; and (b) otherwise by judicial foreclosure.  Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the
          Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property.  There is no homestead or other exemption or other right available to a Mortgagor
          that would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage.  If the Mortgage Loan is an eMortgage Loan, the related eNote contains the Agency-Required eNote Legend.

       

      CC.        No Additional Collateral. 
          The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the Lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in Sections T and U of this
          Schedule 1.

       

      DD.      Deeds of Trust.  In
          the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under the Requirements of Law and Takeout Investor and insurer requirements to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the
          Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by Buyer to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor.

       

      EE.      Acceptable Investment. 
          There are no circumstances or conditions with respect to the Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or the Mortgagor’s credit standing that may cause the Mortgage Loan to become a Delinquent Mortgage Loan or adversely affect the value or
          marketability of the Mortgage Loan.

       

      
        Sch. 1-8

        
          

      

      FF.         FICO Scores.  Each Mortgage Loan has a non-zero FICO score.

       

      GG.       Due on Sale.  The
          Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the mortgagee
          thereunder.

       

      HH.      Co-op Loans: Acceleration of
              Payment.  With respect to each Co-op Loan, each Assignment of Proprietary Lease contains enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization of the material benefits
          of the security provided thereby.  The Assignment of Proprietary Lease contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Note in the event the Co-op Unit is transferred or sold
          without the consent of the holder thereof.

       

      II.          Origination and Collection Practices.  The origination, servicing and collection practices used with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the terms of the Mortgage File, the Requirements of Law and
          any and all contractual obligations of Seller (including those obligations contained in this Agreement), including the FHA Regulations relating to loss mitigation, and Takeout Investor or insurer guidelines, and have been in all respects legal,
          proper and prudent in the mortgage origination and servicing business. All Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments have been made in compliance with applicable state and federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note on the
          related adjustment date.  Seller executed and delivered any and all notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate and any payment adjustments.  All advances
          required to be made under the Mortgage Notes have been made within the time frame therein specified and in accordance with the Mortgage File, FHA Regulations and Requirements of Law. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to applicable state,
          federal and local law has been properly paid and credited.  The terms of the Mortgage Loan do not require the owner of the Mortgage Loan to make escrow payments on behalf of the Mortgagor.  All escrow deposits and escrow payments, if any, are in
          the possession of, or under the control of, Seller or Subservicer and have been collected and handled in full compliance with all Requirements of Law and
          the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. No escrow deposits or escrow payments or other charges or
          payments due the Seller have been capitalized under the Mortgage Note.

       

      
        Sch. 1-9
