	 RATING AGENCY CONDITION 

  

	 	 (m)
	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Trust Deed or any of the other Transaction Documents, if: 

 

	 	 (a)
	 confirmation of the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition is a condition to any action or step under any Transaction Document; or

  

	 	 (b)
	 a written request for such confirmation is delivered to that Rating Agency by any Requesting Party and either one or more of the Rating Agencies
indicates that it does not consider satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition necessary in the circumstances or no such confirmation or other response is received by one or more of the Rating Agencies within 30 days of the date of receipt of such
request by such Rating Agency (each, a Non-Responsive Rating Agency), 

 the Requesting Party
shall be entitled to disregard the requirement for satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to each Non-Responsive Rating Agency and proceed 

  
 60 

 
on the basis of confirmation of the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition by each other Rating Agency on the basis that such confirmation by the Non-Responsive Rating Agency is not required
in the particular circumstances of the request. 
 The failure by a Rating Agency to respond to a written request
for a confirmation of satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition shall not be interpreted to mean that such Rating Agency has given any deemed confirmation of satisfaction thereof or other response in respect of such action or step. 

 

	 	 (2)
	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Trust Deed or any of the other Transaction Documents, if at any time the Issuer determines that any
one of DBRS, Moody’s or Fitch shall not be a Rating Agency, then, so long as (i) the Program is in compliance with the terms of the CMHC Guide, and (ii) each outstanding series of Covered Bonds is rated by at least two Rating
Agencies, the Ratings Triggers for such rating agency and any obligation in any Transaction Document to provide notice of any event or matter to such rating agency will not be applicable to the Program without any action or formality, including for
greater certainty satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to any Rating Agency or consent or approval of the Bond Trustee or the holders of the Covered Bonds. Any amendments to this Master Definitions and Construction Agreement to
reflect the foregoing shall be deemed not to be a material amendment and may be made without the requirement for satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to any Rating Agency or consent or approval of the Bond Trustee or the holders
of the Covered Bonds. 

  

	 4.
	 AMENDMENTS 

 Subject to Section 8.3 of the Security Agreement (Modification to Transaction Documents), any amendments to this Master Definitions and Construction Agreement will be made only with the prior written
consent of each party to this Master Definitions and Construction Agreement. Each proposed amendment or waiver of this Agreement that is considered by the Guarantor to be a material amendment or waiver shall be subject to satisfaction of the Rating
Agency Condition. For certainty, any amendment to (a) a Ratings Trigger provided for in this Agreement that lowers the ratings specified therein, or (b) the consequences of breaching a Ratings Trigger provided for in this Agreement that
makes such consequences less onerous, shall be deemed to be a material amendment. The Guarantor (or the Cash Manager on its behalf) shall deliver notice to the Rating Agencies of any amendment or waiver with respect to which satisfaction of the
Rating Agency Condition is not required, provided that failure to deliver such notice shall not constitute a breach of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto for purposes of
addressing changes to the CMHC Guide shall not require the consent of any party nor shall it require satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. 
  

	 5.

	 The Guarantor undertakes to the Seller that it will at all times (or will direct the Servicer at all times to) administer and enforce (and exercise

in respect of each Loan and its Related Security in the Initial Portfolio on the First Purchase Date in favour of the Guarantor, the Custodian and the Bond Trustee; and 

 

	 	 (ii)
	 The Seller hereby makes the Corporate Representations and Warranties in respect of itself and hereby makes the Loan Representations and Warranties

	 	 (b)
	 Each statement comprised in the Representations and Warranties shall be construed as a separate statement and (save as expressly provided to the
contrary) shall not be limited or restricted by reference to or inference from the terms of any other such statement. 

  

	 	 (c)
	 The Seller acknowledges: 

  

	 	 (i)
	 that the Representations and Warranties are made with a view to inducing the Guarantor, the Custodian and the Bond Trustee (as the case may be)
either to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party or to agree to purchase the New Loans and their Related Security comprised in the Initial Portfolio and each New Portfolio; 

 

	 	 (ii)
	 that each of the Guarantor, the Custodian and the Bond Trustee has entered into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a
party in reliance upon the Representations and Warranties notwithstanding any information in fact possessed or discoverable by the Guarantor, the Custodian and/or the Bond Trustee or otherwise disclosed to any of them; and

  
 - 12 -

	 	 (iii)
	 that prior to entering into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which each is a party none of the Guarantor, the Custodian or the
Bond Trustee has made any enquiries of any matter. 

  

	 8.2
	 The Guarantor’s, the Custodian’s and the Bond Trustee’s sole remedy in respect of a breach of any of the Loan Representations and
Warranties shall be to take action under Section 8.3. 

  

	 8.3
	 In the event of (i) a Loan being the subject of a Product Switch or a request by the applicable Borrower for an advance under the Loan in
respect of amounts previously paid by the Borrower thereunder, in accordance with the terms of the Loan, or (ii) a material breach of any of the Loan Representations or Warranties in respect of any Loan and/or its Related Security made under
Section 8.1 or if any of those Loan Representations or Warranties proves to be untrue in any material respect in the case of the Initial Portfolio, as at the First Purchase Date or, in the case of a New Portfolio as at the relevant Purchase
Date, and provided that, in the case of clause (ii) above: 

  

	 	 (a)

	 	 (b)
	 such breach or untruth, where capable of remedy, is not remedied to the reasonable satisfaction of the Bond Trustee within the 20 Canadian Business
Day period referred to in Section 8.3(a) (or such longer period as the Bond Trustee may in its absolute discretion direct the Guarantor in writing) or, if the Seller has become aware of such breach or untruth prior to delivery of a notice
thereof by the Guarantor, within 20 Canadian Business Days of the date on which the Seller became aware of such breach or untruth, 

 then, in each case, the Guarantor shall serve upon the Seller a Loan Repurchase Notice in duplicate substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3 requiring the Seller to repurchase the relevant Loan and
its Related Security in accordance with Section 8.6. For purposes of this Section 8.3, any breach of the Loan Representation and Warranty set out in Section 2.1 of Schedule 1 shall be deemed to be a material breach which is not
capable of being remedied. 
  

	 8.4
	 The Seller may at any time prior to the occurrence of an Issuer Event of Default and service of an Issuer Acceleration Notice or a Guarantor Event
of Default and service of a Guarantor Acceleration Notice, offer to repurchase any Loan (including a Defaulted Loan) and its Related Security from the Guarantor. The Guarantor may in its absolute discretion accept such offer by delivering a Loan
Repurchase Notice duly signed on behalf of the Guarantor and the provisions of Section 8.6 shall apply, provided that if an Issuer Event of Default has occurred and is continuing but no liquidator has been appointed to the Seller, any such
repurchase shall be conditional upon the 

  
 - 13 -

	 	
delivery by the Seller to the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee of a solvency certificate (in such form as the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee may reasonably require). Any repurchase under this
Section 8.4 shall be subject to the Asset Coverage Test being met upon the completion of such repurchase. Any Loans and their Related Security to be purchased under this Section 8.4 will be selected in a manner that would not reasonably be

	 8.5
	 

  

	 	 (a)
	 The Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller designated by the Seller, in which case the provisions of this Section 8.5 shall apply to such
Affiliate mutatis mutandis) may, upon request and subject to the agreement of the Guarantor, at any time prior to the date (the “Repurchase Option Date”) which is 90 days prior to the related maturity date of such Loan (each, a
“Mortgage Maturity Date”) repurchase any Loan on for the Repurchase Amount of such Loan, effective as of its related Mortgage Maturity Date. If the Seller does not deliver to the Guarantor on or before the related Repurchase Option Date a
written notice specifying the Loans in respect of which it will not exercise the option granted to the Seller pursuant to this Section 8.5 and the Guarantor does not inform the Seller in writing that it cannot repurchase any such Loan, the
Seller shall be deemed to have irrevocably exercised its option to repurchase and shall repurchase each such Loan on the Calculation Date next following the applicable Mortgage Maturity Date at the greater of (i) the Repurchase Amount of such
Loan as of such Calculation Date, and (ii) the Fair Market Value of such Loan as of such Calculation Date; provided, however that the Seller shall not repurchase and shall not be required to repurchase pursuant to this Section 8.5 any Loan
which (i) is or becomes a Defaulted Loan on its Mortgage Maturity Date or (ii) is repaid in full on its Mortgage Maturity Date from funding provided to the Borrower by a Person other than the Seller. On the Calculation Date next following
the Mortgage Maturity Date on which the Seller becomes obligated to purchase a Loan pursuant to this Section 8.5, the Seller shall pay to the GDA Account an amount equal to the greater of (i) the Repurchase Amount for the Loans as of such
Calculation Date, and (ii) the Fair Market Value of such Loans as of such Calculation Date. 

  

	 	 (b)
	 Upon the deposit by the Seller to the GDA Account of the aggregate Repurchase Amount for all Loans to be repurchased by the Seller on any
Calculation Date, all such Loans and Related Security and proceeds thereof shall be sold, assigned and transferred to the Seller by the Guarantor without the need for any formal or other instrument or assignment effective as of such Calculation
Date, free from the Security created by or pursuant to the Security Agreement. If, in respect of any Loan, the Seller delivers to the Guarantor a notice described in this Section 8.5, the Guarantor informs the Seller that the Seller cannot
purchase such Loan under this Section 8.5, or if the Seller fails to deliver such notice and does not remit the related Repurchase Amount to the GDA Account as provided herein, the Guarantor may sell or assign such Loan and its Related Security
in any manner permitted by law and the Seller shall not have any further or other right to purchase such Loan pursuant to this Section 8.5. 

  
 - 14 -

	 8.6
	 Upon receipt of a Loan Repurchase Notice duly signed on behalf of the Guarantor the Seller shall, pursuant to its obligation or agreement pursuant
to Sections 8.3 or 8.4 above or Section 13.2(c) to repurchase the applicable Loans, sign and return a duplicate copy and shall thereby repurchase from the Guarantor, and the Guarantor shall thereby re-assign or re-transfer to the Seller free
from the Security created by or pursuant to the Security Agreement, the relevant Loan and its Related Security. Completion of such repurchase shall take place on the Calculation Date after receipt by the Seller of such Loan Repurchase Notice or such
other date as the Guarantor may direct in the Loan Repurchase Notice (provided that the date so specified by the Guarantor shall not be later than 90 days after receipt by the Seller of such notice) when the Seller shall pay to the GDA Account (or
as the Guarantor shall direct) an amount equal to (x) in the case of a repurchase pursuant to Section 8.3, the greater of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of such Loans, and (ii) the aggregate Repurchase Amount for such Loans,
and (y) in any other case, the aggregate Fair Market Value of such Loans, and in each case the provisions of Section 8.7 will apply. 

  

	 8.7
	 On the date of completion of any repurchase of a Loan and its Related Security in accordance with Section 8.6 above, the Bond Trustee and the
Guarantor shall, at the cost of the Seller execute and deliver, or cause their respective duly authorized attorneys to execute and deliver, to the Seller any documentation necessary to release such Loan and its Related Security from the Security
created by or pursuant to the Security Agreement and all related rights of the Bond Trustee and the Guarantor in respect thereof. In accordance with Section 7.1(5) of the Guarantor Agreement, any such sale will not include any representations,
warranties or indemnities from the Guarantor in respect of the related Loans and the Related Security. 

  

	 8.8
	 Upon the completion of any purchase, transfer, repurchase or re-transfer of any Loan and its Related Security in accordance with this
Section 8, the Seller shall, subject to any applicable privacy and/or record retention laws, regulations or policies, cease to be under any further obligation to hold any Customer Files or other documents relating to such Loan or Loans and its
or their Related Security on behalf of the Guarantor or the Bond Trustee, and if the Bond Trustee then holds any such Customer Files or other documents, the Bond Trustee shall forthwith return them to the Seller. Any such purchase, transfer,
repurchase or re-transfer by or to the Seller of a Loan or Loans and its or their Related Security shall constitute a discharge and release of the Seller from any claims which the Guarantor or the Bond Trustee may have against the Seller arising
from any Representation and Warranty in relation to that Loan or Loans and its or their Related Security only, but shall not affect any rights arising from a breach of any other express provision of this Agreement or any Representation and Warranty
in relation to any other Loan and Related Security. 

  

	 8.9
	 Forthwith after the Seller becomes aware of any events which may reasonably give rise to an obligation under this Section 8 to repurchase any
Loan it shall notify the Guarantor and the Bond Trustee in writing thereof as soon as reasonably practicable. 

  

	 8.10
	 The parties to this Agreement may, with the prior written consent of the Bond Trustee (subject to the following sentence), waive, amend or modify
any Loan Representation and Warranty, or include new Loan Representations and Warranties, in each case, including without limitation modifications or additions to accommodate the sale of New Loan Types to the Guarantor; provided, however, that
(i) any such waiver, amendment or modification that is material shall be subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition and shall not require the consent of the Bond Trustee, and notice thereof shall have been provided to CMHC, and
(ii) any such waiver, amendment or modification shall be in compliance with the CMHC Guide.

enforce their rights in relation to the Portfolio under the Transaction Documents. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall: 

 

	 	 (a)
	 upon reasonable prior notice and during normal office hours, permit the Guarantor, the Bond Trustee and their authorized employees and agents and
other persons nominated by the Bond Trustee and approved by the Seller (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to review the Customer Files in relation to the Portfolio (subject to such person(s) agreeing to keep the same

reasonably request (including a list of the Loans and their Related Security included in the Portfolio along with details of the location of the Customer Files relating thereto), 

provided that prior to the occurrence of a Registered Title Event, the Seller shall be under no obligation to provide any
information or documentation to any person other than the Guarantor and/or the Bond Trustee or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and/or professional advisors or allow such person access to the Customer Files if to do so would
result in a breach of the applicable Mortgage Conditions or any applicable law. 
  

	 10.
	 CONSEQUENCES OF BREACH 

 Without prejudice to the rights of the Guarantor under Article 8, the Guarantor, the Custodian and the Bond Trustee severally acknowledge to and agree with the Seller, that the Seller shall have no

Guarantor by reason of such breach, act or omission. For this purpose (and without limiting the scope of the above exclusion in respect of indirect or consequential loss or damage) any loss or damage suffered by the Guarantor as a result of the
breach, act or omission in question also having been or having given rise to an Guarantor Event of Default or enforcement of the Security created by the Security Agreement shall be treated as indirect or consequential loss or damage.
