All payments shall be made to Buyer in dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, setoff or counterclaim by the twentieth (20th) day of such month.  Buyer may not net such Non-Utilization Fee from the proceeds of any Purchase Price due to Seller.

 

6.                                       Section 3(p) of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following:

In the event the Repurchase Date does not occur within ninety (90) days of the Purchase Date, Seller must immediately pay Buyer the amount necessary to reduce the Repurchase Price to One Hundred and 00/100 Dollars.

 

7.                                       The following is hereby added as new Section 3(r) to the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement:

 

(r)                                    On a monthly basis the Buyer shall determine the Average Outstanding Balance during the preceding month.

 PLEDGE AGREEMENT, AND JOINDER AGREEMENT

 

THIS AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE TO MASTER REPURCHASE AGREEMENT AND PLEDGE AGREEMENT, AND JOINDER AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of March 28, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), by and among SYNERGY CAPITAL MORTGAGE CORP., a California corporation (“Synergy”), EXCEL MORTGAGE SERVICING, INC., a California corporation (“Excel”), AMERIHOME MORTGAGE CORPORATION, a Michigan corporation (“AmeriHome”), and EAST WEST BANK, a California banking corporation (“Buyer”).

 

R  E  C  I  T  A  L  S :

 

A.                                   Synergy and Excel, as Sellers, and Buyer are parties to that certain Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2010 (the “Repurchase Agreement”).  The Repurchase Agreement relates to the purchase and sale of certain Eligible Loans by Synergy and Excel to Buyer, and the agreement of Buyer to transfer to Synergy or Excel, as the relevant Seller, such Eligible Loans at a date certain or demand, against the transfer of funds by Synergy or Excel, all as more particularly described in the Repurchase Agreement.

 

B.                                     In connection with the Repurchase Agreement, Synergy, Excel and Buyer entered into that certain Pledge Agreement, dated June 24, 2010 (the “Pledge Agreement”), pursuant to which Synergy and Excel assigned and pledged as collateral, and granted a security interest in, certain Accounts (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) to Buyer.

 

C.                                     The timely payment and performance of the covenants, agreements, undertakings and obligations of Synergy and Excel under the Repurchase Agreement is guaranteed to Buyer by Integrated Real Estate Service Corp., a California corporation (“IRES”), pursuant to that certain Guaranty Agreement, dated June 24, 2010, executed by IRES Guarantor in favor of Buyer (the “IRES  Guaranty”).

 

D.                                    Synergy and Excel have requested that (i) Buyer permit Amerihome to be added as an additional “Seller” and “Obligor” under the Transaction Documents, (ii) Buyer terminate Synergy’s option to sell additional Eligible Loans to Buyer, and (iii) Buyer make certain other changes to the Transaction Documents.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Buyer has agreed with such requests.

 

E.                                      The parties hereto desire to enter into this Amendment to document the foregoing.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                                       Defined Terms.  All initially capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have meanings ascribed to such terms in the Repurchase Agreement.

2.                                       Joinder of Amerihome.  Effective as of the Effective Date, Amerihome hereby agrees to become a Seller under the Repurchase Agreement and the Pledge Agreement, and an Obligor under the Guaranty, and to bind itself to the Repurchase Agreement and each other Repurchase Document to which Sellers are bound.  Without limitation of the foregoing, Amerihome hereby agrees that it is bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement and the Transaction Documents applicable to Sellers as if Amerihome was an original party thereto (including without limitation the payment and performance of all indebtedness, liabilities and obligations of Sellers to Buyer as and when due).  All references to “Seller(s)” or “Obligor(s)” under the Repurchase Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the Guaranty and any other Transaction Documents shall mean and refer to Excel, Synergy and AmeriHome, individually or collectively, as the context requires.

 

3.                                       Security Interest.  Although Amerihome intends that all Transactions under the Repurchase Agreement be sales and purchases and not loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans, Amerihome shall be deemed to have pledged, and hereby does pledge, to Buyer as security for the performance by Amerihome of its obligations under each such Transaction, and all of Amerihome payment and performance obligations under the Transaction Documents, and shall be deemed to have granted, and hereby does grant, to Buyer a security interest in, all of Amerihome’s now existing or hereafter acquired or arising right, title and interest in, to and under the Purchased Eligible Loans with respect to all Transactions under the Repurchase Agreement and all related (i) loan documents, files and records of the mortgagee for such Mortgage Loan, (ii) Income, any prepayments, insurance and other proceeds, (iii) Servicing Rights and other rights to service or subservice such Mortgage Loan and the proceeds thereof, and (iv) other rights, interests, benefits, security, proceeds, remedies, claims and covenants of the lender or mortgagee arising from or in connection with such Mortgage Loan.  In connection with such security interest, Amerihome hereby authorizes Buyer to file any financing or continuation statement under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code (without the signature of Amerihome) as Buyer may deem appropriate, and appoints Buyer as Amerihome’s attorney-in-fact in accordance with Paragraph 17 of the Repurchase Agreement to (a) authenticate any such financing statement or statements in Amerihome name and (b) take such other actions as Buyer deems necessary or appropriate to perfect and continue the security interest granted hereby and to protect, preserve and realize upon the same (provided that Buyer will provide Amerihome with notice of Buyer’s exercise of this power of attorney within five (5) Business Days after the exercise thereof).  Amerihome hereby covenants, jointly and severally, to pay all customary fees and expenses associated with perfecting such security interest including, without limitation, the cost of filing financing and continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code and recording assignments of mortgage as and when required by Buyer in its sole discretion.  This Paragraph shall constitute a security agreement, and Buyer shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law, and Amerihome represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of amounts by Amerihome to Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement will have been (x) in payment of a debt incurred by Amerihome in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of Amerihome and (y) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of Amerihome.
