and
                 WHEREAS, Borrower is required under the Warehouse Agreement, upon request of Lender, to establish and
maintain a pledged securities custodial account with Lender or such other party as Lender may direct (the “Custodial Account”) for the purpose of holding all Mortgage-Backed Securities issued by FHLMC or FNMA or guaranteed by GNMA
that are backed by Mortgage Loans previously pledged by Borrower to Lender; and
                 WHEREAS, with regard to
Mortgage-Backed Securities that are not represented by a certificate (i.e., Book-Entry MBS, as herein defined), the Warehouse Agreement contemplates that Lender will (i) maintain in its name with the Participants Trust Company (the
“PTC”), or with a participant of the PTC if Lender is not a participant of the PTC, an account, into which each GNMA Book-Entry MBS pledged by Borrower to Lender shall be initially deposited or credited when issued, and (ii)
maintain in its name with a Federal Reserve Bank separate securities accounts into which each FHLMC or FNMA Book-Entry MBS pledged by Borrower to Lender shall be entered when issued; and
                 WHEREAS, all Mortgage-Backed Securities pledged by Borrower to Lender will be Book-Entry MBS; and
                 WHEREAS, for purposes of the foregoing, Lender and Borrower have requested Custodian to act, in accordance with the terms of this
Custodial Agreement, as Lender’s agent and bailee for purposes of establishing the Custodial Account (including, the required PTC and Federal Reserve Bank accounts) and holding such Mortgage-Backed Securities delivered to Custodian from time to
time until possession and custody of such Mortgage-Backed Securities have been delivered to Approved Investors as provided herein; and

security interest in and lien upon the Custodial Account and in any and all Mortgage-Backed Securities at any time held therein or credited thereto as collateral security for the Obligations. Lender shall hold its security interests in and liens
upon the Custodial Account and all Mortgage-Backed Securities at any time held therein or credited thereto with all rights of a secured party under the Florida Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable Florida or federal law. In the event
Custodian receives written notice or has actual knowledge of a lien subject or security interest in favor of a Person other than Lender with respect to any Mortgage-Backed Security at any time held in or credited to the Custodial Account, Custodian

 Section 3.        Delivery of Mortgage-Backed Securities.

be subject to a lien or security interest in favor of Custodian, any Federal Reserve Bank, the PTC or anyone benefitting through Custodian, such Federal Reserve Bank or the PTC.
 
 Section 4.        Release of Mortgage-Backed Securities.
                 (a)     In all circumstances, possession, maintenance and transfer of Mortgage-Backed Securities in, to and
from the Custodial Account and each of the other accounts referenced in Section 3 hereof which are maintained as part of such Custodial Account shall be under the sole and exclusive control of Lender, and Borrower shall have no access to such
accounts, except as otherwise specifically set forth herein.
                 (b)     Upon written
request of Borrower, Lender from time to time shall arrange with Custodian for the transfer of such Mortgage-Backed Securities to an Approved Investor (including any of the Agencies), or the nominee thereof, in accordance with the term of any
applicable Investor Commitment, trade or settlement. Borrower shall provide Lender with written designation of such purchasers and Approved Investors, together with the appropriate instructions for crediting such purchasers’ and investors’
respective accounts.  In addition to such other information as may be appropriate, such written designation and instructions shall indicate the Mortgage-Backed Securities to be sold, the name and address of the Approved Investor, and the
preferred method of delivery and the date of desired delivery. Upon receipt of such written designation from Borrower, Lender shall authorize and direct Custodian to deliver such Mortgage-Backed Securities to the Approved Investor
 4

Table of Contents

Approved Investors to Custodian.
                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of the foregoing procedure,
Lender, in its sole discretion, may authorize Custodian to accept such written designation and instructions directly from Borrower and to act in accordance therewith; provided, however, as set forth above, all deliveries of Mortgage-Backed
Securities to such Approved Investors shall be made only “against payment” by such Approved Investors to Custodian and Borrower shall not be permitted to change this payment procedure.
                 (c)     Custodian will make arrangements for delivery of the Mortgage-Backed Securities to the Approved
Investor for receipt by such appropriate party on (i) the Business Day following the date of receipt by Custodian of the written designation and instructions contemplated by subsection (b) above of this Section 4, if received by Custodian and
telephonically confirmed by Lender or Borrower, as applicable by 12:00 noon, eastern time or such other time acceptable to Lender, Borrower and Custodian or (ii) on the second Business Day following the date of receipt by Custodian of such written
designation and instructions in all cases not meeting the requirements set forth in clause (i) above.
                 (d)     Promptly upon receipt of Settlement Proceeds, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after the
Settlement Date, Custodian shall wire transfer such Settlement Proceeds to Lender in accordance with Lender’s wire transfer instructions set forth on Exhibit A hereto. Until remitted to Lender, all such Settlement Proceeds shall be
invested as directed in writing by Lender in overnight obligations fully guaranteed by the U.S. Government and income earned thereon shall be credited to the Custodial Account and remitted by Custodian to Lender when received.
                (e)     For each month in which the Custodian holds Mortgage-Backed Securities hereunder Custodian
shall deliver to Lender via first-class mail within ten (10) Business Days following the applicable month end, a monthly statement showing activity in the Custodial Account for such month. In addition, upon Lender’s request from time to time,
Custodian shall deliver to Lender, via facsimile or overnight delivery, (i) a schedule of Mortgage-Backed Securities held by or under the control of Custodian, and (ii) a “shipped not paid” report which shall reflect any Mortgage-Backed
Securities which have been shipped to an Approved Investor but for which Custodian has not received the Settlement Proceeds.
 
 Sections.5.      Further Obligations of Custodian.
                 (a)     Custodian shall maintain continuous custody of all Mortgage-Backed Securities in secure facilities in

                 (b)     Custodian shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Mortgage-Backed
Securities in its possession to the extent required by applicable statutes and in any
  5

Table of Contents

  event shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care if it (i) takes such action for that purpose as Lender shall reasonably request in writing (but no omission to comply
with any request of Lender shall of itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care), or (ii) exercises at least the same degree of care as it would exercise with respect to a like transaction in which it acts in a similar
capacity.
                 (c)     Custodian shall (i) act exclusively as the bailee of, and
custodian for Lender, (ii) hold all Mortgage-Backed Securities received by in Custodian or nominee name (as bailee of, and custodian for, Lender) for the benefit of Borrower, and (iii) make disposition thereof only in accordance with the terms of
this Custodial Agreement or with written instructions furnished by Lender; provided however, that in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Custodial Agreement and the written instructions of Lender, Lender’s written instructions
shall control.
 
Section 6.        Obligations of Custodian With Respect to Investor Commitments.
                 (a)     Borrower, with the consent and approval of Lender, hereby authorizes and directs Custodian to sign and
deliver on behalf of Borrower the Mortgage-Backed Securities and all related documents in connection with the sale and transfer of Mortgage-Backed Securities held by Custodian to an Approved Investor in accordance with the written designation and
instructions provided in Section 4 hereof. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints Custodian and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full

other action to be taken by Custodian on behalf of Borrower in connection therewith. This power of attorney may not be revoked by Borrower without the prior written approval of Lender. Custodian will ensure that the relevant Transaction documents
will list Lender, care of Custodian, as the .party to receive the Settlement Proceeds, and that such instructions will not be changed.
                 (b)     Lender hereby authorizes and directs Custodian to sign the release of security interest on behalf of
Lender, provided that in connection with such release Lender is indicated as the party to receive the Settlement Proceeds from the Approved Investor, and that such instructions will not be changed. In connection with the foregoing, Lender hereby
constitutes and appoints Custodian 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 Lender and in the name of Lender or in
its own name, from time to time, for the purpose of executing and delivering the documents listed in the preceding sentence, and taking any other action to be taken by Custodian on behalf of Lender in connection therewith. This power of attorney may
be revoked by Lender upon written notice to Custodian.

 Section 7.        Custodial Fees.
                 It is understood that Custodian or its successor will charge such fees and expenses for its services hereunder as set forth in a
separate agreement between Custodian and Lender, the payment of which shall be the sole obligation of Borrower.
 
 Section 8.        Resignation of Custodian; Termination.
                 (a)     Custodian may at any time resign and terminate its obligations under this Custodial Agreement upon at
least 60 days’ prior written notice to Lender and Borrower.  Promptly after receipt of notice of Custodian’s resignation, Lender may appoint (with the approval of Borrower which shall not be unreasonably withheld), by written
instrument, a successor custodian.   One original counter part of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to each of Borrower, Custodian and the successor custodian.
                 (b)     In the event of such resignation or removal, Custodian shall promptly transfer to the successor
custodian, as directed in writing, all of the Mortgage-Backed Securities being held by or under the control of Custodian under this Custodial Agreement. The cost of the transfer of all such Mortgage-Backed Securities arising out of the resignation
of Custodian shall be at the expense of Custodian.
 
 Section 9.        Removal of Custodian.
                 Lender may remove and discharge Custodian from the performance of its duties under this Custodial Agreement with respect to some or all
of the Mortgage-Backed Securities by written notice from Lender to Custodian with a copy to Borrower. In the event that Lender removes Custodian from the performance of its duties under this Custodial Agreement with respect to all of the Mortgage
Loans, Lender may, in its sole discretion, either appoint a successor Custodian to act on behalf of Lender by written instrument, or terminate this Custodial Agreement. In the event of any such new appointment, Custodian shall promptly transfer to
the successor Custodian, as directed, the Mortgage-Backed Securities being administered under this Custodial Agreement at the expense of Borrower.
                In the event of any such resignation or termination of this Custodial Agreement, Custodian shall follow the reasonable instructions of
Lender (with the approval of Borrower which shall not be unreasonably withheld) for the disposition of the Mortgage-Backed Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lender terminates this Custodial Agreement with respect to some,
but not all, of the Mortgage-Backed Securities, this Custodial Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to any Mortgage-Backed Securities for which this Custodial Agreement is not terminated hereunder. In addition, Lender and
Custodian may, at the sole option of Lender, enter into a separate custodial agreement which shall be mutually acceptable to the parties with respect to any or all of the Mortgage-Backed Securities with respect to which this Custodial Agreement is
terminated.

 Section 11.       Custodian Representations.
                 Custodian (and any successor custodian as of the appointment of such custodian) hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and
for so long as this Custodial Agreement remains in force and effect that:
                 (a)      Custodian has the corporate power and authority and the legal right to execute and deliver, and
to perform its obligations under, this Custodial Agreement, and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize its execution, delivery and performance of this Custodial Agreement;
                (b)     no consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act by or in respect of, any arbitrator or
governmental authority and no consent of any other Person (including, without limitation, any stockholder or creditor of Custodian) is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Custodial
Agreement;
                 (c)     this Custodial Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
on behalf of Custodian and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Custodian enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (whether enforcement is sought in proceedings in equity or at law);

 Section 12.      No Adverse Interest of Custodian.
                By execution of this Custodial Agreement, Custodian represents and warrants that it currently holds, and during the existence of this
Custodial Agreement shall hold, no adverse interest, by way of security or otherwise, in any Mortgage-Backed Security, and hereby waives and releases any such interest which it may have in any Mortgage-Backed Security as of the date hereof. Neither
the Custodial Account nor the Mortgage-Backed Securities shall be subject to any security interest, lien or right to set-off by Custodian or any third party claiming through Custodian, and Custodian shall not pledge, encumber, hypothecate, transfer,
dispose of, or otherwise grant any third party interest in, the Custodial Account or the Mortgage-Backed Securities.
 
 Section 13.      Concerning Custodian.
                 (a)     Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Custodian shall not be liable for any costs, expenses,
damages,  liabilities or claims, including attorneys’  and accountants’  fees (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by or asserted against Lender or Borrower, except those Losses arising out of the negligence or
willful misconduct of Custodian. Custodian shall have no obligation hereunder for Losses which are sustained or incurred by reason of any action or inaction by the book-entry system or any depository, unless such action or inaction is caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of Custodian. With respect to any Losses incurred by Lender or Borrower as a result of the acts or the failure to act by any subcustodian, Custodian shall take appropriate action to recover such Losses from such
subcustodian, and Custodian’s sole responsibility and liability to Lender or Borrower shall be limited to amounts so received from such subcustodian (exclusive of costs and expenses incurred by Custodian). In no event shall Custodian be liable
for special, indirect or consequential damages or lost profits or loss of business, arising in connection with this Custodial Agreement.
                 (b)     Custodian shall be under no obligation to inquire into, and shall not be liable for, the validity of
any Mortgage-Backed Securities purchased or sold by Lender or Borrower, the legality of their purchase or sale, the propriety of the amount paid therefor upon purchase or sale, or any actions of third parties with respect to the negotiability of
Mortgage-Backed Securities.
                (c)     Custodian may, with respect to questions of
law specifically regarding the Custodial Account, obtain the advice of counsel and shall be fully protected with respect to anything done or omitted by it in good faith in conformity with such advice, so long as Lender or Borrower has been advised
and has approved. In the event of a dispute, Custodian may resign without recourse.
                 (d)     Custodian shall be under no obligation to take action to collect any amount payable on Mortgage-Backed
Securities in default, or if payment is refused after due demand and presentment.

 	  Mortgage Warehouse Loan and Security Agreement by and between Colonial Bank, as lender (“Colonial”); Crescent Mortgage Services, Inc., as borrower
(“Crescent”); and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, as custodian (“Custodian”)
 

  Ladies and Gentlemen:
                      This letter is written to confirm the agreement which has been reached with respect to handling and
processing of certain hereinafter defined collateral (“Collateral”) which secures the obligations of Crescent under that certain Mortgage Warehouse Loan and Security Agreement dated December 20, 1999, entered into by and between Colonial
and Crescent (as the same may be amended from time to time, hereinafter the “Loan Agreement”), some of which Collateral is handled by Custodian in its capacity as custodian of certain Mortgage Documents (as hereinafter defined) delivered
by Crescent to Custodian in connection with the issuance of securities which represent interests in pools of mortgage loans (“Securities”) and which are guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”). We have
mutually agreed that this Letter Agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) serves our collective best interest in the following manner:
                     A.     Crescent shall receive a warehousing line of credit under the Loan
Agreement;
                      B.     Colonial by virtue of this Letter
Agreement will be provided with certain assurances with respect to the Collateral; and

                      C.      Custodian does not undertake any responsibilities which are in conflict
with its obligations under that certain GNMA Master Custodial Agreement (“HUD 11715”) dated January 6, 1998, executed by and between Crescent Mortgage Services, Inc., and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (the “GNMA Custodial
Agreement”).
                      Premised upon these considerations, the parties, by
signing this Letter Agreement, agree as follows:
                      1.     Subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, from time to
time Colonial has agreed to loan to Crescent amounts up to the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding of $35,000,000 (such maximum amount being subject to change without the consent of or any notice to Custodian).  The Loan
Agreement specifies that such loans shall be secured by Collateral consisting of (among other things) promissory notes payable to Crescent and real estate mortgages, which shall be pooled for the issuance of GNMA Securities.
                     2.     Crescent shall from time to time forward to Custodian the
packaged notes, endorsed in blank, and assignments of mortgages for the formation of GNMA mortgage pools, together with a Release of Security Interest (“HUD 11711A”) executed by Colonial for each such pool.   No such release
shall become effective until the delivery of the GNMA Securities by GNMA or its agent.   Upon receipt of the packaged notes and assignments of mortgages and release, Custodian shall verify the notes and assignments of mortgages which form
the GNMA mortgage pool and shall execute and deliver to Colonial as promptly as possible a Schedule of Pooled Mortgages (“HUD 11706”) (hereinafter referred to as a “Schedule of Pooled Mortgages”), along with a trust receipt in a
form attached hereto (or such other form as shall be mutually satisfactory to Colonial and Custodian), which shall indicate that the notes and assignments of mortgages that have been delivered to Custodian by Crescent shall be held by Custodian
pursuant to the requirements of GNMA and this Letter Agreement. Such trust receipts shall describe such notes and mortgages by reference to an attached copy of the appropriate form of Schedule of Pooled Mortgages.   Custodian understands
that Colonial will rely on the trust receipt and the Schedule of Pooled Mortgages to advance to Crescent funds based upon the notes and mortgages described in the trust receipt and the Schedule of Pooled Mortgages.
                      3.     The parties hereto recognize that, to the extent required in the GNMA
Custodial Agreement, Custodian must have direct control and possession of the subject notes, endorsed in blank, and assignments of mortgages. Further, Custodian has certain other custodial responsibilities as defined in the GNMA Custodial
Agreement.    Therefore, in carrying out Custodian’s responsibilities pursuant to this Letter Agreement, no such responsibilities shall be deemed to be in conflict with the custodial responsibilities as defined in GNMA
Custodial

  Agreement. Subject, however, to the terms and conditions of the GNMA Custodial Agreement,
Custodian agrees to hold the packaged notes and assignments of mortgages, and any other documents related to the mortgage loans included therein (collectively, the “Mortgage Documents”), as the agent bailee of Colonial and for its benefit
for the purpose of protecting and preserving Colonial’s security interest therein until the issuance of the GNMA Securities backed by the Mortgage Documents.
                      4.     The parties acknowledge that Colonial has financed such mortgage loans
evidenced by the Mortgage Documents under Crescent’s warehousing line of credit from Colonial.   As such, Colonial’s security interest in such mortgage loans shall be effective until Colonial receives payment in full for each
specific loan advance or until the GNMA Securities are delivered to Colonial.
                      5.     Custodian shall process each GNMA mortgage pool as required by the GNMA
Custodial Agreement with the ultimate aim being the issuance of GNMA Securities backed by the GNMA mortgage pool.   At the time and date of the delivery of the GNMA Securities, the Colonial release under HUD 11711A shall become effective
and the GNMA mortgage pool Mortgage Documents will no longer be held by Custodian for the account of Colonial, but shall thereafter be held as collateral for the GNMA Securities.
                      6.     In the case of GNMA Securities, the HUD form 11705 (Schedule of
Subscribers) shall name Colonial as the only subscriber and as the only person to which the GNMA Securities shall be delivered or, if a designee of Colonial is to act as clearing agent with respect to the GNMA Securities, the HUD form 11705 shall
show such designee as the only person to who such GNMA Securities shall be delivered.
                     7.     In the event, that the GNMA Securities based on Mortgage Documents are not
issued, Colonial may request in writing that Custodian deliver all Mortgage Documents forming the GNMA mortgage pool as certified on the Schedule of Pooled Mortgages to Colonial; and upon any necessary consents or permissions from GNMA. Custodian
shall cause the Mortgage Documents to be delivered to Colonial within three days from the date of any necessary or required GNMA consents are received by Custodian.   Thereupon, Colonial shall return to Custodian the original trust receipt
with a notation thereon acknowledging receipt of the Mortgage Documents.   Custodian acknowledges that in the event of the non-issuance of the GNMA Securities, it is essential that Colonial receive all the original Mortgage Documents held
by Custodian and the same not be tendered or released to Crescent.

                      8.     The Custodian shall be indemnified and held harmless by each of Crescent
and Colonial from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs, damages and causes of action, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses related thereto, arising out of the Custodian’s duties
hereunder; provided that the Custodian is not entitled to indemnification where the claim, demand, liability, cost, damage or cause of action is the result of the sole negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty
of the Custodian or any of its officers, managers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates.
                      9.     The total liability of the Custodian hereunder for any and all claims,
demands, liabilities, costs, damages or losses sustained by Colonial, Crescent or any of their respective officers, managers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates, in connection with the performance by Custodian of its duties under this letter
agreement shall be limited in amount to the total amount of fees or other compensation received by Custodian in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder.
                     10.   Each party hereto shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30)
days prior to written notice to each of the other parties hereto.
                      11.   Any notices required to be given hereunder shall be effective when hand delivered or
three days after mailed if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested with postage prepaid, to the addresses of the parties set forth herein or to such other address as such party may have furnished to the other parties.
                      12.   This Letter Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of Georgia.

  INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT
                      THIS INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) effective as of the 20th day of December,
1999, by and between Colonial Bank (“Bank”) and Home Federal Savings Bank (“Creditor”).
  R E C I T A L S:
                      WHEREAS, Crescent Mortgage Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Borrower”), has
heretofore executed in favor of Creditor a revolving line of credit note, a mortgage warehousing loan agreement, pledge and security agreement and related documents (as the same may be amended, the “Creditor Documents”) securing a mortgage
warehousing line of credit in the amount of $5,000,000.00 to Borrower. Contemporaneously herewith, Borrower will execute in favor of Bank a revolving line of credit note, a mortgage warehouse loan and security agreement and related documents (as the
same may be amended, the “Bank Documents”), securing a mortgage warehousing, line of credit in the initial amount of $35,000,000.00 to Borrower.
                      WHEREAS, Creditor has filed UCC financing statements against Borrower. Bank will file UCC financing
statements in various jurisdictions immediately following the closing of its line of credit to Borrower.
                     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and promises herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
                      1.     Bank and Creditor each recognize and acknowledge that Borrower has entered
into separate security agreements securing mortgage warehousing lines of credit with Bank and Creditor, respectively. Creditor does hereby affirm that the entering into and borrowing under the Bank Documents with Bank does not constitute an event of
default under the Creditor Documents, and does not conflict therewith. Bank does hereby affirm that the entering into and borrowing under the Creditor Documents with Creditor does not constitute and event of default under the Bank Documents, and
does not conflict therewith. This does not constitute a waiver of any other events of default which currently exist or occur in the future under the Creditor Documents or the Bank Documents.

from Creditor’s security interest in consideration of funds paid to Creditor on Borrower’s behalf by Bank) and which may be assigned by Borrower to Creditor in the future as set forth in the Creditor Documents. Bank claims a first priority

Creditor by Borrower as aforesaid and against which Creditor has not advanced funds, but which are specifically assigned to Bank and against which Bank has heretofore advanced or hereafter advances funds. It is not the intent of Bank to claim a
security interest in the promissory notes, real estate mortgages, permanent commitments, and related mortgage loan documentation which are not now or hereafter specifically assigned to Bank by Borrower as aforesaid and against which Bank has not
heretofore or hereafter advanced funds, but which are now or hereafter specifically assigned to Creditor by Borrower and against which Creditor has heretofore advanced or hereafter advances funds (other than such mortgage loan documents which have
been released from Creditor’s security interest in consideration of funds paid to Creditor on Borrower’s behalf by Bank).
                     3.     Creditor hereby recognizes and acknowledges Bank’s first priority
security interest in the promissory notes, real estate mortgages, permanent commitments, and related mortgage loan documentation, securing advances made to Borrower under its line of credit from Bank to fund such mortgage loans, including such
mortgage loans which have been released from Creditor’s security interest in consideration of funds paid to Creditor on Borrower’s behalf by Bank, and Bank hereby recognizes and acknowledges Creditor’s first priority security interest

of any event of default under their respective lines of credit which is not cured within the applicable grace period. For the purposes of this provision, all notices shall be directed to such party at the address set forth below:

  Exhibit 10.26
  THIRD AMENDMENT TO
 MORTGAGE WAREHOUSE LOAN AND SECURITY
AGREEMENT
                      This Third Amendment to Mortgage Warehouse Loan and Security
Agreement (this “Amendment”), made by and between CRESCENT MORTGAGE SERVICES, INC., a Georgia corporation, as borrower (“Borrower”), and COLONIAL BANK, an Alabama banking corporation, as lender (“Lender”),
is dated as of the 31 day of July, 2002.
  RECITALS:
                      Pursuant to that certain Mortgage Warehouse Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 20, 1999, as
amended by that certain First Amendment to Mortgage Warehouse Loan and Security Agreement dated as of July 31, 2000 and that certain Second Amendment to Mortgage Warehouse Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 25, 2001 (as heretofore amended,
the “Agreement”), Lender made available to Borrower, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, a revolving line of credit loan in the maximum aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000.00 (the “Line of Credit”),
secured by Borrower’s assignment and pledge to Lender of certain mortgage loans and related collateral, for the purpose of assisting Borrower in its business of originating and making such loans.
                      Pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement (as temporarily extended by letter agreement), the Line of
Credit matures on July 31, 2002. Borrower has requested that Lender agree to extend the scheduled maturity date of the Line of Credit to June 30, 2003, to decrease the maximum amount available under the Line of Credit from $50,000,000.00 to
$40,000,000.00, to make corresponding decreases to the Sublimits thereunder, and to make certain other modifications to the Agreement, and Lender is willing to do so, but only on the express condition, among others, that Borrower enter into this
Amendment, pursuant to which the Agreement shall be amended and modified.
                     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements contained herein, and for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties hereto do hereby agree, each with the other, as follows:
                      1.          If not otherwise defined herein or the

hereby amended as follows:

	  
 	           (A)       By amending and restating the definition of “Advance Rate

forty-five (45) days) appraised value of such Mortgage Loan, and (iv) with respect to any Eligible Wet Mortgage Loan, an amount equal to the Advance Rate Amount applicable to the Type of Mortgage Loan supporting the Advance.
 
	  
 	  
 
	  
 	          (B)       By amending and restating the definition of “Appraisal”

 	               “Appraisal” shall mean a certificate of an independent certified public accountant
or independent financial consultant selected by the Borrower and reasonably satisfactory to the Lender as to the Appraised Value of the Eligible Servicing Portfolio which shall evaluate the Eligible Servicing Portfolio as of the end of
Borrower’s most recent fiscal quarter based upon reasonably determined categories of the Mortgage Loans contained therein and giving effect to any sub-servicing agreement
 
				

	  
 	  to which any such Mortgage Loan is or will be subject, which certificate shall be in form, substance and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

	  
 	  
 
	  
 	           (C)       The defined term “Authorized Representative” is hereby
added to the Agreement, which term shall have the same definition as the term “Authorized Officer”.
 
	  
 	  
 
	  
 	          (D)       By amending and restating the definition of “Commitment”

 	                (a)     Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including
the last three sentences of this Section 2.5(a)), the principal amount of each Advance owed to Lender shall bear interest at an annual interest rate equal to the lesser of: (i) the Maximum Rate or (ii) (A) for Sublimit A Advances, the LIBOR Rate
plus 1.25% (125 basis points), floating daily, subject, however, to adjustment to the LIBOR Rate plus 1.50% (150 basis points), floating daily, if the Mortgage Loan funded with such Advance is warehoused with Lender for

longer than the Warehouse Period therefore, the outstanding principal amount of the related Advance owed to Lender shall, during the period of time in warehouse in excessof such Warehouse Period, bear interest at an annual interest rate equal to the
lesser of: (i) the Maximum Rate or (ii) the Interim Default Rate.

 	  other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the date hereof with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the date hereof, no Event of Default or Potential
Default exists or has occurred and is continuing on the date hereof, and no material adverse change has occurred in the financial condition of Borrower since the original date of the Agreement.
 

                      16.       If Borrower shall fail to perform or observe any term,
covenant or agreement in this Amendment, or any representation or warranty made by Borrower in this Amendment shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made, such occurrence shall be deemed to constitute an Event of
Default.
                      17.       This Amendment shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.
                      18.       Borrower agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of

responsibilities with respect thereto.
                     19.       Unless otherwise expressly modified or amended hereby, all
terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the same, as amended hereby, are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.   From and after the effective date hereof, all references in the Agreement,
and any other document or instrument entered into in connection therewith, to the Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Agreement as amended by this Amendment.
                      20.       This Amendment shall inure to and be binding upon and
enforceable by Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
                      21.       This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts,
each of which when executed and delivered shall constitute an original.   All such counterparts shall together be deemed to be one and the same instrument. Further, the parties may execute facsimile copies of this Amendment and the
facsimile signature of any such party shall be deemed an original and fully binding on said party; provided, however, any party executing this Amendment by facsimile signature agrees to promptly provide an original executed copy of
this Amendment to Lender.
