“Buyer”), ALPINE SECURITIZATION LTD (“Alpine” and a “Buyer”) and CALIBER HOME LOANS, INC. (the “Seller”). 

RECITALS 
 The
Administrative Agent, the Buyers and the Seller are parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of August 26, 2016 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Existing Repurchase Agreement”; and as further amended by this Amendment, the “Repurchase Agreement”) and the related Amended and Restated Pricing Side Letter, dated as of August 26, 2016 (as
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Pricing Side Letter”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Existing Repurchase
Agreement. 
 The Administrative Agent, the Buyers and the Seller have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, that
the Existing Repurchase Agreement be amended to reflect certain agreed upon revisions to the terms of the Existing Repurchase Agreement. 

Accordingly, the Administrative Agent, the Buyers and the Seller hereby agree, in consideration of the mutual promises and mutual obligations
set forth herein, that the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows: 
 SECTION 1. Applicability. Section 1 of
the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such section in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 1.
Applicability 
 From time to time the parties hereto may enter into transactions in which Seller agrees to transfer to a
Buyer, or Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers, Mortgage Loans (as hereinafter defined) on a servicing released basis against the transfer of funds by such Buyer, or Administrative Agent on behalf of such Buyer, with a simultaneous agreement by
such Buyer, or the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Buyer to transfer to Seller such Mortgage Loans on a servicing released basis at a date certain or on demand, against the transfer of funds by Seller. This Agreement is a commitment by
Committed Buyers and/or Administrative Agent on behalf of Committed Buyers to engage in the Transactions as set forth herein up to the Maximum Committed Purchase Price; provided, that Committed Buyers and Administrative Agent on behalf of Committed
Buyers shall have no commitment to enter into any Transaction requested that would result in the aggregate Purchase Price of then-outstanding Transactions exceeding the Maximum Committed Purchase Price, and in no event shall the aggregate Purchase
Price of outstanding Transactions exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price at any 

 
time. Each such transaction shall be referred to herein as a “Transaction” and, unless otherwise agreed in writing, shall be governed by this Agreement, including any supplemental terms
or conditions contained in any annexes identified herein, as applicable hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, and for administrative and tracking purposes, (a) the purchase and sale of each Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a separate
Transaction and (b) with respect to each Designated Mortgage Loan, such Designated Mortgage Loan may, at Buyers’ option, be sold to different Buyers that are Affiliates on a pro rata basis, such that one Buyer pays the Purchase Price-Base
and another Buyer pays the Purchase Price-Incremental, in which case, the Administrative Agent shall own the Designated Mortgage Loan, for the benefit of the purchasing Buyers, on a pro rata, pari passu basis. 

SECTION 2. Definitions. Section 2 of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by: 

2.1 deleting the introductory sentence thereof in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 

Whenever used in this Agreement, the following words and phrases, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the
following meanings; provided that any terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Pricing Side Letter: 

2.2 deleting the definitions of “Designated Mortgage Loan”, “Purchase Price”, “Price
Differential” and “Scratch and Dent Mortgage Loan” in their entirety and replacing them with the following: 

“Designated Mortgage Loan” means a Mortgage Loan that is identified by Administrative Agent as eligible for
both a Purchase Price-Base and a Purchase Price-Incremental. 
 “Price Differential” means, with respect to
the Purchased Mortgage Loans, as of any date of determination, the sum of the Daily Weighted Average Price Differential-Base and the Daily Weighted Average Price Differential-Incremental for such date. 

“Purchase Price” has the meaning assigned to such term in the Pricing Side Letter. 

“Scratch and Dent Mortgage Loan” means a first lien Mortgage Loan (i) originated by Seller in accordance
with the criteria of an Agency, Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loan or Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loan, as applicable, except such
Mortgage Loan is not eligible for sale to the original Take-out Investor or has been subsequently repurchased from such original Take-out Investor, in each case, for
reasons other than delinquent payment under such Mortgage Loan, (ii) is acceptable to Buyers or Administrative Agent in their sole discretion and (iii) which is not thirty (30) or more days delinquent. 

2.3 deleting the definition of “Base Purchase Price” in its entirety and replacing all references thereto with
“Purchase Price-Base”; and

and replacing all references thereto with “Purchase Price-Incremental”. 
 SECTION 3. Program; Initiation of
Transactions. Section 3 of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting subsection (a) in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 

a. From time to time, Buyers and/or Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers will purchase from Seller certain Mortgage Loans
that have been either originated by Seller or purchased by Seller from other originators. This Agreement is a commitment by Committed Buyers and Administrative Agent on behalf of Committed Buyers to enter into Transactions with Seller up to an
aggregate amount equal to the Maximum Committed Purchase Price. This Agreement is not a commitment by Committed Buyers or Administrative Agent on behalf of Committed Buyers to enter into Transactions with Seller for amounts exceeding the Maximum
Committed Purchase Price, but rather, sets forth the procedures to be used in connection with periodic requests for Buyers or Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers to enter into Transactions with Seller. Seller hereby acknowledges that, beyond
the Maximum Committed Purchase Price, neither any Buyer nor Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers is under any obligation to agree to enter into, or to enter into, any Transaction pursuant to this Agreement. All Purchased Mortgage Loans shall
exceed or meet the Underwriting Guidelines, and shall be serviced by a Servicer. The sum of (i) the Aggregate Purchase Price-Base of Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to outstanding Transactions and (ii) the Aggregate Purchase
Price-Incremental for all Non-Participated Purchase Price-Incremental shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price. The Aggregate Purchase Price-Incremental of Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to
outstanding Transactions shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price-Incremental. 
 SECTION 4. Repurchase. Section 4
of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting subsection (a) in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 

a. Seller shall repurchase the related Purchased Mortgage Loans from Buyers or Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers on each
related Repurchase Date. 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 Buyers or
Administrative Agent shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan on each Price Differential Payment Date except as otherwise provided herein). Seller is obligated to repurchase and take physical possession of the
Purchased Mortgage Loans from Buyers or Administrative Agent or its designee (including the Custodian) at Seller’s expense on the related Repurchase Date. For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with a payment of the Repurchase Price with
respect to any Designated Mortgage Loan, Seller shall only be entitled to pay either (a) the full Repurchase Price or (b) a portion of the Repurchase Price so long as the remaining outstanding Repurchase Price is at least equal to the
Minimum Purchase Price-Incremental. 

  
 -3- 

 SECTION 5. Price Differential. Section 5 of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is
hereby amended by deleting subsection (a) in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 (a) On each Business
Day that a Transaction is outstanding, the Pricing Rate shall be reset and, unless otherwise agreed, the accrued and unpaid Price Differential for the preceding Pricing Period shall be settled in cash on each related Price Differential Payment Date.
Two (2) Business Days prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Administrative Agent shall give Seller written or electronic notice of the amount of the Price Differential due on such Price Differential Payment Date. On the Price
Differential Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyers or Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Buyers, the Price Differential for such Price Differential Payment Date (along with any other amounts then due and owing pursuant to
Section 7 hereof and Section 3 of the Pricing Side Letter), by wire transfer in immediately available funds 

SECTION 6. Margin Maintenance; Reallocation of Purchase Price. Section 6 of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended
by: 
 6.1 deleting the section header thereof in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 

6. Margin Maintenance; Reallocation of Purchase Price 

6.2 adding the following new subsection (e) at the end thereof: 

(e) If at any time the outstanding Purchase Price-Base of any Purchased Mortgage Loan which is subject to a Transaction is
greater than the Asset Value-Base of such Mortgage Loan (a “Purchase Price Deficit-Base”), and such Purchase Price Deficit-Base does not constitute a Margin Deficit, then the amount of such Purchase Price Deficit-Base shall be
reallocated by the Administrative Agent and added to the Purchase Price-Incremental; provided that the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly notify (which for this purpose may be by electronic communication) the Seller after such
reallocation; provided further that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such reallocation and application of such funds. 

SECTION 7. Conditions Precedent. Section 10.b. of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting subclause
(12) in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 (12) Designated Mortgage Loans. With respect to each
proposed Transaction for which the Purchase Price-Incremental for a Designated Mortgage Loan will be funded, (x) no Disqualification Event shall have occurred and be continuing, and (y) the Purchase Price for such Designated Mortgage Loan
shall be increased by an amount at least equal to the Minimum Purchase Price-Incremental but shall not exceed the Maximum Purchase Price-Incremental. 

  
 -4- 

 SECTION 8. Single Agreement. Section 19 of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is
hereby amended by deleting the first paragraph of such section in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 Administrative Agent,
Buyers and Seller acknowledge they have 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 have been made
in consideration of each other. Accordingly, each of Administrative Agent, Buyers and Seller agrees (i) 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 and (ii) 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. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, in the event that (a) a Buyer is not an Affiliate of Administrative Agent, Alpine or CS Cayman (a “Non-Affiliate Buyer”), (b) an Event of Default shall have
occurred and is continuing and (c) Administrative Agent provides written notice to the Seller to sever each Non-Affiliate Buyer’s Transactions (the
“Non-Affiliate Transactions”) and treat such Non-Affiliate Transactions as separate Transactions under this Agreement (a “Severance
Notice”), then Administrative Agent, Buyers and Seller acknowledge that each such Non-Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed a separate Transaction under a separate and distinct agreement with the same
terms and conditions as set forth herein (each a “Non-Affiliate MRA”), and each such Non-Affiliate Buyer shall be deemed to be the administrative agent
with respect to its respective Non-Affiliate Transactions under its respective Non-Affiliate MRA; provided that Transactions owned by Administrative Agent, Alpine and CS
Cayman or any respective Affiliate shall continue to be deemed a single Transaction with Administrative Agent serving as the administrative agent for Alpine, CS Cayman or any respective Affiliate, in each case, pursuant to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9. Confidentiality. Section 32 of the Existing Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
the first paragraph of such section in its entirety and replacing it with the following: 
 This Agreement and its terms,
provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are confidential and shall be held by the parties hereto in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of the non-disclosing party except for (i) disclosure to any party’s direct and indirect affiliates and Subsidiaries, representatives, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary

Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’, any assignee’s or Repledgee’s respective rights hereunder or under any Transaction, including in connection with disposition of Repurchase Assets as permitted hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreement, 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

 ANNEX A 

(a) Payments Current. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Performing Mortgage
Loan or a Re-Performing Mortgage Loan, all payments required to be made up to the Purchase Date for the Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note have been made and credited. Except with respect to a
Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or a Re-Performing Mortgage Loan, no payment required under the Mortgage Loan is delinquent nor has any payment
under the Mortgage Loan been delinquent at any time since the origination of the Mortgage Loan within the grace period and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Co-op Loan (other than a
Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or Re-Performing Mortgage Loan), no foreclosure action or private or public sale under the Uniform Commercial Code has ever to the knowledge
of Seller, been threatened or commenced with respect to the Co-op Loan. The first Monthly Payment shall be made, or shall have been made, with respect to the Mortgage Loan on its Due Date or within the grace
period, all in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note. 
 (b) No Outstanding Charges. Except with respect to a
Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Performing Mortgage Loans or Re-Performing Mortgage Loans, 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 has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been
assessed but is not yet due and payable. Neither Seller nor the Qualified Originator from which Seller acquired the Mortgage Loan has advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the
Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan, whichever is earlier, to
the day which precedes by one (1) month the Due Date of the first installment of principal and/or interest thereunder. 
 (c)
Original Terms Unmodified. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or Re-Performing Mortgage Loan, the terms of the Mortgage
Note (and the Proprietary Lease, the Assignment of Proprietary Lease and Stock Power with respect to each Co-op Loan) and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the
date of origination; except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of Buyers, and which has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule.
The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent required, and its terms are reflected on the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule. No Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan has been
released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File delivered to the Custodian and the
terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule. 

  
 Annex A-1 

 (d) 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 in respect of the Mortgage Loan was a debtor in any state or Federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the
Mortgage Loan was originated. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or Re-Performing Mortgage Loan, Seller has no knowledge nor has
it received any notice that any Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. 

(o) No Defaults. Other than a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Performing Mortgage Loan, there is no
default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event has occurred which, 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; and with respect to each Co-op Loan (other than a Non-Performing Mortgage 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 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. 
 (ll) Origination Date. The Purchase Date is no more than (i) with
respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans other than Correspondent Loans, Non-Performing Mortgage Loans, Re-Performing Mortgage Loans or Scratch and Dent Mortgage Loans, [***]
following the origination date and (ii) with respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans that are Correspondent Loans (other than Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or
Re-Performing Mortgage Loan), [***] following the origination date. 

  
 Annex A-2 

 ANNEX B 

(ttt) No Prior Modifications. With respect to a Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or Re-Performing Mortgage Loan, if such Mortgage Loan has been modified after acquisition by the Seller, such signed modification documents reflecting the applicable modified terms are in the related loan file. 

(uuu) Leases. With respect to a Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or
Re-Performing Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property is either a fee simple estate or a long-term residential lease. If such Non-Performing Mortgage Loan or Re-Performing Mortgage Loan is secured by a long-term residential lease, to the best of each Seller’s knowledge: (A) the terms of such lease expressly permit the mortgaging of the leasehold estate, the
assignment of the lease without the lessor’s consent (or the lessor’s consent has been obtained and such consent is in the Mortgage Loan File), and the acquisition by the holder of the Mortgage of the rights of the lessee upon foreclosure
