 AMENDED AND RESTATED MORTGAGE LOAN PARTICIPATION PURCHASE AND SALE 

AGREEMENT 
 This AMENDED AND
RESTATED MORTGAGE LOAN PARTICIPATION PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made and entered into as of July 17, 2015, between Bank of America, N.A. (“Purchaser”) and loanDepot.com, LLC
(“Seller”). 
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENT 

Purchaser and Seller entered into that certain Mortgage Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of July 18, 2012 (as
amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Original Agreement”). 
 Purchaser and Seller desire to amend
the Original Agreement in its entirety by amending and restating it subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 Seller desires
to sell to Purchaser from time to time all of Seller’s beneficial right, title and interest in and to designated pools of fully amortizing first lien residential Mortgage Loans eligible in the aggregate to back Securities, and the servicing
rights relating thereto, with the terms described in related Takeout Commitments, each in the form of a 100% undivided beneficial ownership interest evidenced by a Participation Certificate. 

Purchaser desires and may, in its sole discretion, purchase such Participation Certificates from Seller in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement. Seller, subject to the terms hereof, will cause (a) the Related Mortgage Loans to back a GNMA Security issued by Seller and guaranteed by GNMA, a FNMA Security issued and guaranteed by FNMA, or a FHLMC
Security issued and guaranteed by FHLMC and (b) Delivery of such GNMA Security, FNMA Security, or FHLMC Security by GNMA, FNMA, or FHLMC, respectively, to Purchaser or its designee in exchange for the Related Participation Certificate, which
GNMA Security, FNMA Security or FHLMC Security, as applicable, will be purchased by the Takeout Investor. 
 Purchaser’s willingness to
purchase any Participation Certificate evidencing a beneficial interest in the Related Mortgage Loans and the servicing rights related thereto is at the sole discretion of Purchaser and based on Purchaser’s expectation, in reliance upon
Seller’s representations and warranties herein, that (a) such Mortgage Loans in the aggregate, constitute a pool or pools of mortgage loans that are eligible to back a Security, (b) such Mortgage Loans are sufficient for Seller to
issue and GNMA to guarantee the GNMA Security, FNMA to issue and guarantee a FNMA Security, or FHLMC to issue and guarantee a FHLMC Security, as applicable, (c) such Security will be issued in the amount and with the terms described in the
related Takeout Commitment, and (d) Purchaser will receive Delivery of such Security on the specified Anticipated Delivery Date. 
 The
amount of the Purchase Price to be paid by Purchaser to Seller with respect to each Participation Certificate will be calculated on the expectation of Purchaser, based upon the representations and warranties of Seller herein, that Purchaser will
receive Delivery of the Security to be backed by the Related Mortgage Loans on the specified Anticipated Delivery Date, and that failure to receive such Delivery will result in a material decrease in the market value of the Participation Certificate
and the Related Mortgage Loans considered as a whole. During the period from the purchase of a Participation Certificate to Delivery of the related Security, Purchaser expects to rely entirely upon Seller to subservice or cause the Servicer to
subservice the Related Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Purchaser, it being acknowledged that the continued effectiveness of Seller’s Approvals during such period constitutes an essential factor in the calculation by Purchaser of the Purchase
Price paid to Seller for the Related Participation Certificate and that loss of such Approvals by Seller would result in a material decrease in the market value of the Participation Certificate and the Related Mortgage Loans considered as a whole.

writing as evidenced by Purchaser’s delivery to Seller of a countersigned Request for Temporary Increase. At any time that a Temporary Increase is in effect (and only for such time as such Temporary Increase is in effect), the Aggregate
Transaction Limit and, if applicable, the Minimum Over/Under Account Balance, shall be increased by the amount of the Temporary Increase for all purposes of this Agreement and all calculations and provisions relating to the Aggregate Transaction
Limit, and, if applicable, the Minimum Over/Under Account Balance, shall refer to such increased amount.

Seller hereby assigns to Purchaser, free of any security interest, lien, claim or encumbrance of any kind, Seller’s rights under each
Takeout Commitment to deliver the Security specified therein to the related Takeout Investor and to receive the purchase price therefor from such Takeout Investor. Subject to Purchaser’s rights hereunder, Purchaser agrees that it will satisfy
the obligation under the Takeout Commitment to deliver the Security to the Takeout Investor on the Settlement Date specified therein. Seller understands that, as a result of this Section 3 and each Trade Assignment,
Purchaser will succeed to the rights and obligations of Seller with respect to each Takeout Commitment subject to a Trade Assignment, and that in satisfying each such Takeout Commitment, Purchaser, will stand in the shoes of Seller and,
consequently, will be acting as a non-dealer in exercising its rights and fulfilling its obligations assigned pursuant to this Section 3 and each Trade Assignment. 

Seller hereby acknowledges that, in order for Purchaser to satisfy the “good delivery standards” of the Securities Industry and
Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) as set forth in the SIFMA Uniform Practices Manual and SIFMA’s Uniform Practices for the Clearance and Settlement of Mortgage Backed Securities and other Related Securities, in each case, as
amended from time to time, Purchaser must deliver each Trade Assignment to the related Takeout Investor no later than seventy-two (72) hours prior to settlement of the related Security. Seller hereby
acknowledges and agrees to deliver each Trade Assignment to Purchaser no later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the date on which such seventy-two (72) hour period commences.

elects to purchase hereunder. The Holdback Amount with respect to a Participation Certificate shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller as provided in Section 4(b) below. 

(b) Subject to Section 5(b) and the Purchaser’s right of set-off set
forth in Section 13, the Holdback Amount relating to each Participation Certificate shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller not later than the Settlement Date of the related Security; provided, that on the date
of any such payment to the Seller, the Holdback Amount shall be (i) reduced by the positive difference (if any) between the Purchase Price Adjustment Amount and the Present Value Adjustment Amount with respect to such Participation Certificate
or (ii) increased by the positive difference (if any) between the Present Value Adjustment Amount and the Purchase Price Adjustment Amount with respect to such Participation Certificate. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, no
Holdback Amount shall be owed by Purchaser to Seller upon issuance of any Security in the circumstances contemplated in Section 6(f) or if the related Security shall not be issued as a result of a Security Issuance Failure.
No exercise by Purchaser of its rights under this Section 4(b) shall relieve Seller of responsibility or liability for any breach of this Agreement. 

(c) Upon exercise by Purchaser of its remedies under Section 6(f), Purchaser’s obligation to pay and
Seller’s right to receive any portion of the Holdback Amount relating to such Mortgage Loans shall automatically be canceled and become null and void; provided, that such cancellation shall in no way relieve Seller or otherwise affect
the obligation of Seller to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless as specified in Section 14. At no time shall Seller have any beneficial interest in the servicing rights with respect to Related Mortgage Loans while the
related Participation Certificate is outstanding. 

  
 - 15 - 

 Section 5. Issuance of Securities. 

(a) (i) In connection with the purchase of a Participation Certificate, Seller shall instruct (and, if Seller fails to instruct, then
Purchaser may instruct) Custodian to deliver to the Applicable Agency, the documents listed in Exhibit 16-A, 16-B or 16-C of the Custodial Agreement, as applicable, in respect of the Related Mortgage Loans, in the manner and at the time set forth in the Custodial Agreement. Seller shall thereafter promptly deliver to the
Applicable Agency any and all additional documents requested by the Applicable Agency to enable the Applicable Agency to make Delivery to Purchaser of a Security backed by such Mortgage Loans on the related Anticipated Delivery Date. Seller shall
not revoke such instructions to Custodian and shall not revoke its instructions to the Applicable Agency to make Delivery to Purchaser or its designee of a Security backed by such Mortgage Loans. 

(ii) Seller shall notify Purchaser, not later than 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the applicable Settlement Date (a) of the amount of any change in the principal amount of the Mortgage Loans backing each such Security related to such Settlement Date
and (b) with respect to FHLMC Securities, the FHLMC mortgage loan pool number applicable to each Security to which such Settlement Date relates. Upon Delivery of such Security to Purchaser or its designee, Purchaser shall cease to have any
interest under such Participation Certificate and in exchange shall have a 100% ownership interest in the related Security. It is understood and agreed that for so long as Seller is subservicing, or is causing any third party Servicer to subservice,
Related Mortgage Loans, Seller shall retain only bare legal title (and not an equitable interest) in all such Mortgage Loans (other than MERS Mortgage Loans) for the sole purpose of subservicing such Mortgage Loans on a servicing-released basis.

 (b) If Delivery of a Security backed by the Mortgage Loans evidenced by a Participation Certificate purchased hereunder has not occurred
by 12:00 noon (Eastern Time), on the related Settlement Date as a result of a Security Issuance Failure, then subject to the exercise by Purchaser of its rights set forth in Section 4(c), the Holdback Amount relating to
such Participation Certificate shall be reduced on each day during the period from the Settlement Date to (but not including) the earlier of (x) the date of Delivery of such Security, and (y) the date of satisfaction of the obligations of
Seller pursuant to the exercise by Purchaser of any remedial election authorized by this Section 5, by an amount equal to the Daily Holdback Reduction Amount. The Holdback Amount (as reduced by the applicable Daily Holdback
Reduction Amounts) relating to such Participation Certificate, if any, shall not be payable until the end of the period specified in the preceding sentence. 

(c) If a breach by Seller of this Agreement results in any Related Mortgage Loan being a Defective Mortgage Loan on the Purchase Date of the
related Participation Certificate to Purchaser, Purchaser in its sole discretion may require Seller to, upon receipt of notice from Purchaser of its exercise of such right, either (x) immediately repurchase Purchaser’s beneficial ownership
interest in such Defective Mortgage Loan by remitting to Purchaser the allocable amount paid by Purchaser for such beneficial interest plus accrued interest at the rate specified in the related Mortgage Note on the principal amount thereof from the
date of Purchaser’s purchase of such Participation Certificate to the date of such repurchase together with any Losses suffered by Purchaser relating to such repurchase (including, without limitation, any Losses incurred by Purchaser resulting
from adjustments to the trade required by the Takeout Investor), or (y) deliver to Custodian a Mortgage Loan eligible to back such Security in exchange for such Defective Mortgage Loan, which newly delivered Mortgage Loan shall be in all
respects acceptable to Purchaser in Purchaser’s sole discretion, and such newly delivered Mortgage Loan will thereupon become one of the Related Mortgage Loans relating to the Participation Certificate. If the aggregate principal balance of any
Mortgage Loans that are accepted by Purchaser pursuant to clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence is less than the aggregate principal balance of any Defective Mortgage Loan that is being replaced by such Mortgage Loan, Seller shall
remit with such Mortgage Loan to Purchaser an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate principal balance of the new Mortgage Loan accepted by Purchaser and the aggregate principal balance of the Defective Mortgage

  
 - 16 - 

 
Loan being replaced thereby plus accrued interest on such Defective Mortgage Loan at the rate specified in the related Mortgage Note on the principal amount thereof from the Purchase Date of
Purchaser’s purchase of such Participation Certificate to the date of substitution. If any Related Mortgage Loan becomes thirty (30) or more days past due with respect to the first scheduled monthly payment due Purchaser after the date on
which such Related Mortgage Loan was originated and prior to the Anticipated Delivery Date, Seller shall repurchase the beneficial interest in such Related Mortgage Loan as if it were a Defective Mortgage Loan upon direction by Purchaser given no
later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Purchase Date. 
 (d) No exercise by Purchaser of its rights under this
Section 5 shall relieve Seller of responsibility or liability for any breach of this Agreement. 
 Section 6.
Servicing of the Mortgage Loans; Events of Default. 
 (a) Upon payment of the Purchase Price (subject to
Section 4), Purchaser shall own a 100% undivided beneficial interest in the servicing rights related to the Related Mortgage Loans and all source files, documents, agreements and papers related to servicing the Related
Mortgage Loans and shall own all derivative information created by Seller or other third party used or useful in servicing such Mortgage Loans. Seller and Purchaser each agrees and acknowledges that a 100% undivided beneficial interest in Related
Mortgage Loans shall be sold to Purchaser on a servicing released basis, subject to the termination rights provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 6(f) of this Agreement, and that Purchaser is
engaging, and Purchaser does hereby engage, Seller to provide, or cause a third party Servicer to provide, subservicing of each Related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of Purchaser (and any other registered holder of the related Participation
Certificate) on the Purchase Date for each transaction. Seller shall have no further servicing obligations or duties to Purchaser under the terms of this Agreement with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans upon issuance of the Security.

Related Mortgage Loans in whole or in part, nor delegate its rights or duties under this Agreement to any Person other than the Servicer, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, the granting of which consent shall be in the sole discretion
of Purchaser. Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) Purchaser is entering into this Agreement in reliance upon Seller’s representations as to the adequacy of its financial standing, servicing facilities, personnel, records,
procedures, reputation and integrity, and the continuance thereof; and (ii) Seller’s engagement hereunder to provide mortgage servicing for the benefit of Purchaser (and any other registered holder of the Participation Certificate) is
intended by the parties to be a “personal service contract” and Seller is hereunder intended by the parties to be an “independent contractor”. 

(b) Seller shall, and shall cause any third party Servicer to, subservice and administer the Related Mortgage Loans relating to a Participation
Certificate on behalf of Purchaser in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Neither Seller nor any Servicer shall have the right to modify or alter the terms of any Related Mortgage Loan or consent to the modification or alteration of the
terms of any Related Mortgage Loan except in Strict Compliance with the related Agency Program. Seller shall, and shall cause any third party Servicer to, at all times maintain accurate and complete records of its servicing of the Related Mortgage
Loans, and Purchaser may, at any time during Seller’s business hours on reasonable notice, examine and make copies of such Servicing Records. Seller agrees that Purchaser is the 100% beneficial owner of all Servicing Records relating to the
Related Mortgage Loans. Seller covenants to hold such Servicing Records for the benefit of Purchaser and to safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Purchaser or its designee (including the Custodian) at Purchaser’s
request or otherwise as required by operation of this Section 6. In addition, if Delivery of a Security is not made to Purchaser on or before the Anticipated Delivery Date, Seller shall deliver to

  
 - 17 - 

 
Purchaser monthly reports regarding the status of those Related Mortgage Loans for which a Security has not yet been issued, which reports shall include, but shall not be limited to, a
description of those Related Mortgage Loans in default for more than thirty (30) days, and such other circumstances with respect to any Related Mortgage Loans (whether or not such Related Mortgage Loans are included in the foregoing list) that
could materially adversely affect any of such Related Mortgage Loans, Purchaser’s beneficial interest in such Related Mortgage Loans or the collateral securing any of such Related Mortgage Loans. Seller shall deliver such a report to Purchaser
every thirty (30) days until (i) Delivery of the related Security to Purchaser or (ii) the exercise by Purchaser of any remedial election pursuant to Section 5. In no event shall Seller delegate any of its
subservicing duties hereunder to any other Person without first obtaining the prior written consent of Purchaser. 
 (c) Seller, as servicer,
shall establish and maintain with Purchaser a separate custodial account (the “Custodial Account”) entitled “loanDepot.com, LLC Custodial Account, for the benefit of Bank of America, N.A. and its assignees under the Amended and
Restated Mortgage Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of July 17, 2015” and shall promptly deposit into such account in the form received, with any necessary endorsements, all collections received in respect of the
Related Mortgage Loans relating to Participation Certificates purchased by Purchaser hereunder. 
 (d) Amounts deposited in the Custodial
Account with respect to any Related Mortgage Loan relating to Participation Certificates purchased by Purchaser hereunder shall be held for the benefit of Purchaser and shall be released only as follows: 

(i) Except as otherwise provided in Section 6(d)(ii), upon either (x) the Settlement Date
(unless there is a Security Issuance Failure) or (y) if earlier, on the date required by the Applicable Agency Guide, amounts deposited in the Custodial Account shall be released to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts relating to
Participation Certificates purchased by Purchaser hereunder and deposited in the Custodial Account shall be released to Seller upon the Settlement Date of the related Security (unless there is a Security Issuance Failure) only if, and to the extent
that, the amounts due and payable to Purchaser hereunder have been set-off against the Purchase Price for the Related Participation Certificate or the Holdback Amount. The amounts paid to Seller (if any)
pursuant to this Section 6(d)(i) shall constitute the sole compensation of the Seller or the related third party Servicer, as applicable, for subservicing the Related Mortgage Loans as provided in this
Section 6. 
 (ii) If Successor Servicer takes delivery of such Mortgage Loans either under the
circumstances set forth in Section 6(f) or otherwise, all amounts deposited in the Custodial Account shall be paid to Purchaser promptly upon such delivery. 

(iii) If a Security is not issued solely as a result of a Security Issuance Failure during the month in which the related
Settlement Date occurs, in any period thereafter during which Seller or a third party Servicer remains as subservicer, all amounts deposited in the Custodial Account shall be released only in accordance with Purchaser’s written instructions.

Amounts in accordance with Section 4, and all amounts on deposit in the Over/Under Account in accordance with Section 11, (ii) declare all amounts payable by Seller to Purchaser hereunder to be

conclusions stated therein shall be qualified or limited by reference to the status of Seller as a “going concern” or reference of similar import. 

(f) Purchaser, in its sole discretion, may terminate Seller’s rights and obligations as subservicer of the affected Related Mortgage Loans
and require Seller to deliver the related Servicing Records to Purchaser or its designee upon the occurrence of (i) an Event of Default, (ii) Seller’s failure to comply with any of its obligations set forth in
Section 5(c), or (iii) Seller’s breach of Sections 9(a)(viii) or 9(b)(ix), by delivering written notice to Seller requiring such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, any
termination of the Seller’s rights as subservicer of the affected Related Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser as a result of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the foregoing sentence shall be deemed part of an exercise of the Purchaser’s
rights to cause the liquidation, termination or acceleration of this Agreement. Such termination shall be effective upon Seller’s receipt of such written notice; provided, that Seller’s subservicing rights shall be terminated
immediately upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 6(e)(iv), regardless of whether notice of such event shall have been given to or by Purchaser or Seller. Upon any such termination, all authority and power
of Seller respecting its rights to subservice and duties under this Agreement relating thereto, shall pass to and be vested in the Successor Servicer appointed by Purchaser and Purchaser is hereby authorized and empowered to transfer such rights to
subservice the Related Mortgage Loans for such price and on such terms and conditions as Purchaser shall reasonably determine; provided, that to the extent the Applicable Agency proceeds to issue a Security with respect to the Related
Mortgage Loans, Purchaser shall convey the servicing rights and the rights to subservice such Mortgage Loans in accordance with such Applicable Agency’s instructions. Seller shall promptly take such actions and furnish to Purchaser such
documents that Purchaser deems necessary or appropriate to enable Purchaser to obtain a Security backed by such Mortgage Loans or to enforce such Mortgage Loans, as appropriate, and shall perform all acts and take all actions so that the Related
Mortgage Loans and all files and documents relating to such Mortgage Loans held by Seller, together with all escrow amounts relating to such Mortgage Loans, are delivered to Successor Servicer, including but not limited to preparing, executing and
delivering to the Successor Servicer any and all documents and other instruments, placing in the Successor Servicer’s possession all Servicing Records pertaining to such Mortgage Loans and doing or causing to be done, all at Seller’s sole
expense. To the extent that the approval of the Applicable Agency is required for any such sale or transfer, Seller shall fully cooperate with Purchaser to obtain such approval. All amounts paid by any purchaser of such rights to service or
subservice the Related Mortgage Loans shall be the property of Purchaser. The subservicing rights required to be delivered to Successor Servicer in accordance with this Section 6(f) shall be delivered free of any servicing
rights in favor of Seller or any third party (other than Purchaser) and free of any title, interest, lien, encumbrance or claim of any kind of Seller other than bare legal title to the Mortgage Loans. No exercise by Purchaser of its rights under
this Section 6(f) shall relieve Seller of responsibility or liability for any breach of this Agreement. 

Section 7. Transfers of Participation Certificates and Securities by Purchaser. Purchaser may, with the prior written consent of
Seller not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, assign all of its right, title and interest or grant a security interest in any Participation Certificate and the related servicing rights, each Security in respect thereof of which
Delivery is made to Purchaser and all 

  
 - 20 - 

 
rights of Purchaser under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the Custodial Account) in respect of such Participation Certificate and such Security, to any person (an
“Assignee”), subject only to an obligation on the part of the Assignee to deliver each such Security to the Takeout Investor or to Purchaser to permit Purchaser or its designee to make delivery thereof to the Takeout Investor;
provided, that no such consent shall be required (i) if such transfer or assignment is to any of Purchaser’s Affiliates or (ii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and upon Purchaser providing notice to Seller such Assignee
thereof may enforce the Program Documents and any security interest directly against Seller. Assignment by Purchaser of a Participation Certificate and the related servicing rights as provided in this Section 7 will not
release Purchaser from its obligations otherwise under this Agreement. 
 Without limitation of the foregoing, an assignment of a
Participation Certificate and the related servicing rights to an Assignee, as described in this Section 7, shall be effective upon delivery of the Participation Certificate to the Assignee or its designee, together with a
duly executed Assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit E (with a copy to Seller). 
 Section 8.
Record Title to Mortgage Loans; Intent of Parties; Security Interest. 
 (a) From and after the issuance and delivery of the Related
Participation Certificate, and subject to the remedies of Purchaser in Section 5, Seller or Servicer shall remain the last named payee or endorsee of each Mortgage Note and the mortgagee or assignee of record of each
Mortgage (except with respect to any MERS Mortgage Loan) and shall retain only bare legal title (and not an equitable interest) in the Related Mortgage Loan, all for the benefit of Purchaser for the sole purpose of facilitating the subservicing of
such Mortgage Loan and the issuance of a Security backed by such Mortgage Loan. Where Seller has appointed FHLMC as Custodian, the parties hereto acknowledge that the Mortgage Notes acquired hereunder have been deposited with FHLMC to facilitate the
issuance of FHLMC Securities with respect thereto and that prior to such issuance FHLMC is holding such Mortgage Notes as Custodian for Purchaser. 

(b) Seller shall maintain a complete set of books and records for each Related Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the
beneficial ownership interest in each Related Mortgage Loan of the holder of the Related Participation Certificate. Seller shall notify MERS of the beneficial ownership interest of Purchaser in each MERS Mortgage Loan through the MORNET system or
any other comparable system acceptable to MERS. 
 (c) Purchaser and Seller confirm that the transactions contemplated herein are intended to
be sales of the Participation Certificates by Seller to Purchaser rather than borrowings secured by the Participation Certificates. In the event, for any reason, any transaction is construed by any court or regulatory authority as a borrowing rather
than as a sale, Seller and Purchaser intend that Purchaser or its Assignee, as the case may be, shall have, and Seller hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Purchaser or such Assignee, as the case may be, a first priority security interest in
Seller’s interest in the Participation Certificates, all of the servicing rights with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans and all documentation and rights to receive documentation related to such servicing rights and the servicing of the
Related Mortgage Loans, the Custodial Account and all amounts on deposit therein, the Related Mortgage Loans subject to each Participation Certificate, all documents, records (including, without limitation, Servicing Records and copies of all
documentation in connection with the underwriting and origination for any Related Mortgage Loan that evidences compliance with the Ability to Repay Rule and the QM Rule), instruments and data evidencing the Related Mortgage Loans and the servicing
thereof, the Securities to be issued as contemplated hereunder and all proceeds thereof, the Takeout Commitments, any funds of the Seller at any time deposited or held in the Over/Under Account and the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing
(collectively, the “Collateral”), free and clear of adverse claims. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, the Custodian shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for

  
 - 21 - 

 
purposes of perfection of the security interest herein granted to Purchaser, and Purchaser or each such Assignee shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, if any determination is made that the servicing rights with respect to the Related Mortgage Loans were not sold by Seller to Purchaser or that that such servicing rights are
not an interest in the Related Mortgage Loans and are severable from the Related Mortgage Loans despite Purchaser’s and Seller’s express intent herein to treat them as included in the purchase and sale transaction, Seller hereby expressly
pledges, assigns and grants to Purchaser a continuing first priority security interest in and lien upon the servicing rights and all documentation and rights to receive documentation related to such servicing rights and the servicing of each of the
Related Mortgage Loans (the “Related Credit Enhancement”). The Collateral and Related Credit Enhancement is hereby pledged as further security for Seller’s obligations to Purchaser hereunder. 

(d) Upon request of Purchaser, Seller shall prepare and deliver to MERS an Assignment of Mortgage from MERS to Purchaser or its designee. Upon
due execution by MERS, Seller shall cause such Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded in the public land records upon request of Purchaser. 

Section 9. Representations and Warranties. 

(a) Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser as of the date hereof and with the respect to the Related Mortgage Loans as of the date

(ii) Seller is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has the full legal
power and authority and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals, necessary to own its property and to carry on its business (including servicing) as currently conducted, and is duly qualified to do business and is in

this Agreement and each of the other Program Documents and to perform all acts contemplated hereby and thereby or in connection herewith and therewith. This Agreement and each other Program Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby have been approved by the board of directors of Seller. Seller has taken all action necessary to make this Agreement and each other Program Document its valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof; 

(iii) The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement, each other Program Document, and the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, are within Seller’s corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and will not result in the breach of any provision of the charter or
by-laws of Seller or result in the breach of any provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement, indenture, loan or credit
agreement or other instrument to which Seller, the Related Mortgage Loans or any of Seller’s property is subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which Seller, the Related Mortgage Loans or
Seller’s property is subject. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein or therein will not violate any policy, regulation or guideline of the FHA, VA or RD or result in the
voiding or reduction of the FHA

ineligible (pursuant to the applicable Agency Guide or otherwise) for inclusion in a pool of mortgages supporting a Security, and such FHA insurance, VA guarantee or RD guarantee is in full force and effect or shall be in full force and effect as
required by the applicable Agency Guide; 
 (iv) This Agreement, each other Program Document and every document to be
executed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement is and will be valid, binding and subsisting obligations of Seller, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except that the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally. No consents or approvals are required to be obtained by Seller, for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the Custodial Agreement by
Seller; 
 (v) Seller has not sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated any interest in any Participation
Certificate or Related Mortgage Loan (except to any Warehouse Lender which provides a Warehouse Lender’s Release in the form of Exhibit D hereto) to any person other than Purchaser, and upon delivery of a Participation Certificate to
Purchaser, Purchaser will be the sole owner thereof, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance; 
 (vi) Neither this
Agreement nor any representations and warranties or information relating to Seller that Seller has delivered or caused to be delivered to Purchaser, including, but not limited to, all documents related to this Agreement, each other Program Document
or Seller’s financial statements, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein or herein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. Since the furnishing of such documents or information, there has been no change, nor any development or event involving a prospective change that would render any of such documents or information untrue or misleading in any material
respect; 
 (vii) There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, or before or by any
court, public board or body pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Seller (or, to Seller’s knowledge, any basis therefor) wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding (i) would adversely affect the
validity or enforceability of this Agreement, each other Program Document or any agreement or instrument to which Seller is a party and which is used or contemplated for use in the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or
(ii) would or, in Seller’s reasonable view, could materially and adversely affect Seller’s ability to carry out its obligations hereunder; 

(viii) Seller has all requisite Approvals. Seller has not received from any Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA, VA or RD a notice of
extinguishment or a notice indicating material breach, material default or material non-compliance which Purchaser could reasonably determine is reasonably likely to entitle such Applicable Agency or HUD, FHA,
VA or RD to terminate or suspend Seller or to have a Material Adverse Effect, or a notice from any Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA, VA or RD indicating any adverse fact or circumstance in respect of Seller which Purchaser could reasonably determine is
reasonably likely to entitle such Applicable Agency or HUD, FHA, VA or RD, as the case may be, to revoke any Approval or otherwise terminate, suspend Seller as an approved issuer, seller or servicer, as applicable, or with respect to which such
adverse fact or circumstance has caused any Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA, VA or RD to terminate Seller. Seller has not received from any Applicable Agency, HUD, FHA, VA or RD a notice of a sanction or a levy of penalties against the Seller which
Purchaser could reasonably determine is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; 

  
 - 23 - 

 (ix) The Custodian is an eligible custodian under each Agency Guide and each
Agency Program, and is not an Affiliate of Seller; and 
 (x) This Agreement, each other Program Document, any other document
contemplated hereby or thereby and each transaction have not been entered into fraudulently by Seller hereunder or the Custodian, or with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor or Purchaser.

may not be canceled without prior notice to Seller. Any proceeds of such insurance collected and retained by Seller (and not required by law or any loan document to be remitted to the borrower) shall be held in trust for the benefit of Purchaser.
The scope and amount of such insurance shall satisfy the rules, requirements, guidelines and announcements of the Applicable Agency, and shall in all cases be at least equal to the lesser of (A) the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan or
(B) the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, and shall not be subject to reduction below such amount through the operation of a coinsurance, reduced rate contribution or similar clause; 

(iii) Each Mortgage is a valid first Mortgage lien on the Mortgaged Property and is covered by an attorney’s opinion of
title acceptable to the Applicable Agency or by a policy of title insurance on a standard ALTA or similar lender’s form in favor of Seller and its assigns, subject only to exceptions permitted by the applicable Agency Program. Seller shall hold
for the benefit of Purchaser such policy of title insurance, and, upon request of Purchaser, shall immediately deliver such policy to Purchaser or to the Custodian on behalf of Purchaser;

 Section 11. Over/Under Account. 

(a) Seller shall at all times maintain a balance in the Over/Under Account of not less than the Minimum Over/Under Account Balance. The
Over/Under Account shall be used to assist in settling Seller’s payment obligations to Purchaser under this Agreement. Purchaser shall not be required to segregate and hold funds deposited by or on behalf of Seller in the Over/Under Account
separate and apart from Purchaser’s own funds or funds deposited by or held for others. Upon the occurrence of a Potential Default or an Event of Default, Purchaser shall have the right to increase the Minimum Over/Under Account Balance Seller
is required to maintain in the Over/Under Account by giving notice to Seller thereof. If Seller fails to deposit funds in the Over/Under Account to comply with any such required increase within the time frame required by Purchaser, Purchaser shall
have the right to retain in the Over/Under Account any amounts received by Purchaser on behalf of Seller or otherwise credited to the Over/Under Account to comply with any such required increase, including, without limitation, any purchase proceeds
received by Purchaser from any Takeout Investor pursuant to Section 3. Purchaser shall not be liable to Seller for any costs, losses or damages arising from or relating to the increase of the Minimum Over/Under Account
Balance that Seller is required to maintain in the Over/Under Account or retention of excess funds by Purchaser to comply with any such increase. For the sake of clarity, only one Over/Under Account shall be maintained by Purchaser for Seller in
connection with this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement, if any, and such Over/Under Account shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement as well as the Master Repurchase Agreement, if any. 

(b) Within one (1) Business Day of Purchaser’s receipt of a payment from Seller or a Takeout Investor, Purchaser shall credit to the
Over/Under Account all amounts received by it that exceed those amounts then due to Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement. Purchaser shall make available to Seller by posting on its warehouse lending website within one (1) Business Day
following any such credit to the Over/Under Account, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, a statement that details the amounts so credited by Purchaser to the Over/Under Account. 

(c) If any amount credited to the Over/Under Account creates a balance in excess of the Minimum Over/Under Account Balance required pursuant to
Section 11(a) above, provided that no Potential Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Seller may submit a written request to Purchaser for return or payment of such excess funds. If any such request is
received by Purchaser prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to wire such requested excess funds to Seller by the end of such Business Day and in no event no later than two
(2) Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of such request. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 11(c) to the contrary, Purchaser reserves the right to reject any request for excess funds from the
Over/Under Account if Purchaser determines that such excess funds shall be used to satisfy Seller’s outstanding obligations under this Agreement or are subject to other rights as provided in this Agreement. 

(d) Purchaser may, from time to time and without separate authorization by Seller or notice to Seller, withdraw funds from the Over/Under
Account to settle amounts owed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or to otherwise satisfy Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation (i) to reimburse itself for any reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by Purchaser in connection with this Agreement, as permitted herein, and (ii) in the exercise of Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ rights under Section 13. 

(e) If, at any time, Seller fails to maintain in the Over/Under Account the Minimum Over/Under Account Balance as required hereunder, in
addition to any other rights and remedies that Purchaser may have against Seller, Purchaser shall have the right to immediately stop purchasing Participation Certificates from Seller and/or to charge Seller accrued interest on that portion of the
Minimum Over/Under Account Balance that Seller has failed to maintain, at the Default Rate, from the time that such balance failed to be maintained until the time that funds are deposited into or held in the Over/Under Account to comply with such
Minimum Over/Under Account Balance requirements hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that should the balance in the Over/Under Account become negative, Seller will continue to owe Purchaser accrued
interest as provided herein. 

  
 - 31 - 

 (f) Any funds of Seller at any time deposited or held in the Over/Under Account, whether
such funds are required to be deposited and held in the Over/Under Account pursuant to this Section 11 or otherwise, are hereby pledged by Seller as security for its obligations under this Agreement, and Seller hereby
grants a security interest in such funds to Purchaser, and such pledge and security interest shall be considered “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” this Agreement and
transactions hereunder within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code Sections 101(38A)(A) and 741(7)(A)(xi). 
 (g) For any given calendar quarter
and on the Expiration Date, Purchaser shall pay in arrears to Seller an amount equal to the sum of the following calculations: 

(i) if the average utilization of the Aggregate Transaction Limit during such period is greater than XX% and less than or equal
to XX%, an amount equal to the product of (A) XXXXX (XX) basis points (0.XX%), (B) the average daily Aggregate Purchase Price during such period and (C) the actual number of days in such period, divided by 365; provided, that if Seller,
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Transactions Terms Letter, received, or is entitled to receive, an interest payment from Purchaser in respect of the Average O/U Balance (as defined in the Transactions Terms Letter) for any calendar month
that occurred during such period, the pricing incentive in this clause (i) shall be reduced for each such calendar month, by an amount equal to the product of (x) the Applicable Average O/U Balance (as defined in the Transactions Terms
Letter), (y) XXXXXX (XX) basis points (0.XX%) and (z) the actual number of days in such period, divided by 365; and 

(ii) if the average utilization of the Aggregate Transaction Limit during such period is greater than X0%, an amount equal to
the product of (A) thirty-seven and a half (XX) basis points (0.XXX%), (B) the average daily Aggregate Purchase Price during such period and (C) the actual number of days in such period, divided by 365; provided, that if Seller,
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Transactions Terms Letter, received, or is entitled to receive, an interest payment from Purchaser in respect of the Average O/U Balance (as defined in the Transactions Terms Letter) for any calendar month
that occurred during such period, the pricing incentive in this clause (ii) shall be reduced for each such calendar month, by an amount equal to the product of (x) the Applicable Average O/U Balance (as defined in the Transactions Terms
Letter), (y) XXX (XXX) basis points (XXXX%) and (z) the actual number of days in such period, divided by 365. 
 Any such amount
owed to Seller shall be deposited by Purchaser in the Seller’s Over/Under Account within thirty (30) days following the end of the quarter. 

Section 12. Term. This Agreement shall continue in effect until terminated as to future transactions by written instruction signed
by either Seller or Purchaser and delivered to the other; provided, that no termination will affect the obligations hereunder as to any of the Participation Certificates then outstanding hereunder or any Security not yet delivered to
the related Takeout Investor. 

  
 - 32 - 

 Section 13. Set-Off. In addition to any
rights and remedies of Purchaser provided by this Agreement and by law, Purchaser shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount
becoming due and payable by Seller hereunder, to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all property and deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any
currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or
the account of Seller (including, without limitation, the amount of any accrued and unpaid Holdback Amounts), irrespective of whether or not Purchaser shall have made any demand hereunder and whether or not said obligations and liabilities shall
have become due. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser may also set-off cash and all other sums or obligations owed by Purchaser or its Affiliates to Seller (whether under this Agreement
or under any other agreement between the parties or between Seller and any Affiliate of Purchaser) against all of Seller’s obligations to Purchaser or its Affiliates (whether under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the parties
or between Seller and any Affiliate of Purchaser), whether or not such obligations are then due. The exercise of any such right of set-off shall be without prejudice to Purchaser’s or its Affiliate’s
right to recover any deficiency. 
 Purchaser and its Affiliates (collectively, “Bank of America Related
Entities”), shall also have the right to set-off and to appropriate or apply any and all deposits of money or property or any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Bank of America
Related Entity to or for the credit of the account of Seller and its Affiliates against and on account of the obligations of Seller under any agreement(s) between Seller and/or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Bank of America Related Entity,
on the other hand, irrespective of whether or not the Bank of America Related Entity shall have made any demand hereunder and whether or not said obligations shall have matured. In exercising the foregoing right to
set-off, any Bank of America Related Entity shall be entitled to withdraw funds in the Over/Under Account which are being held for or owing to Seller to set-off against
any amounts due and owing by Seller to the Bank of America Related Entity. If a Bank of America Related Entity other than Purchaser intends to exercise its right to set-off in this paragraph, such Bank of
America Related Entity shall provide Seller prior notice thereof, and upon Seller’s receipt of such notice, if the basis for such right to set-off is Seller’s breach or default of its obligations to
the Bank of America Related Entity, Seller shall have three (3) Business Days to cure any such breach or default in order to avoid such set-off. 

Section 14. Indemnification. Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless against any and all Losses (including, without
limitation, Losses incurred by Purchaser on account of fees paid by Purchaser to the Applicable Agency to cause the Securities to be issued or any Losses in connection with any indemnification by Purchaser of the Applicable Agency) resulting from,
relating to or otherwise arising in connection with the Seller’s negligence, willful misconduct or breach or failure of Seller to perform any representation, warranty, covenant, term or condition made or obligation to be performed by Seller
under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any failure to perform servicing obligations) in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the covenants and
obligations of Seller contained in this Section 14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 15. Exclusive Benefit of Parties; Assignment. This Agreement is for the exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns and shall not be deemed to give any legal or equitable right to any other person, including the Takeout Investor and Custodian. Except as provided in Section 7 and the following paragraph
of this Section 15, no rights or obligations created by this Agreement may be assigned by either party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party. 

  
 - 33 - 

 The Program Documents may not be assigned by Seller to any Person without the prior written
consent of Purchaser, which consent may be withheld by Purchaser in Purchaser’s sole discretion. 
 Any Person into which Seller may be
merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which Seller shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of Seller, shall be the successor of Seller hereunder, without the execution
or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding 

Section 16. Amendments; Waivers; Cumulative Rights. This Agreement may be amended from time to time only by written agreement of
Seller and Purchaser. Any forbearance, failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise by either party of any right, power or remedy
hereunder shall not preclude the further exercise thereof. Every right, power and remedy of either party shall continue in full force and effect until specifically waived by such party in writing. No right, power or remedy shall be exclusive, and
each such right, power or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right, power or remedy, whether conferred hereby or hereafter available at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. 

Section 17. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties agree that this Agreement, any documents to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement and any notices hereunder may be transmitted between them by email and/or by
facsimile. The parties intend that faxed signatures and electronically imaged signatures such as .pdf files shall constitute original signatures and are binding on all parties. The original documents shall be promptly delivered, if requested. 

Section 18. Effect of Invalidity of Provisions. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be or
become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall in no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

by Seller of this Agreement, the Custodial Agreement, a Participation Certificate or a Takeout Commitment, Seller agrees to pay the reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of Purchaser and/or any Assignee incurred as a consequence of such

 Section 23. Intent.

a “master netting agreement” as those terms are defined in Section 741 and Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, respectively, and a “qualified financial contract” as that term is defined in the FDIA, and that the
pledge of the Related Credit Enhancement in Section 8(c) hereof constitutes “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” this Agreement and transactions
hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Seller and Purchaser further recognize that the beneficial interest in the Related Mortgage Loans evidenced by a Participation Certificate shall
constitute an “interest in a mortgage loan” as that term is used in Section and 741(7)(A)(i) of Bankruptcy Code. 
 (b) It is
understood that the Purchaser shall have the right to liquidate, terminate and accelerate, or exercise any other remedies permitted upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and that such liquidation, termination and acceleration rights
constitute contractual rights to liquidate, terminate and accelerate the transactions under a “securities contract” and a “master netting agreement” as described in Section 555 and Section 561 of the Bankruptcy
Code, respectively, and a “qualified financial contract” as described Section 1821(e)(8)(A)(i) of the FDIA. 
 (c) The parties
hereto agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the FDIA, then each transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in the
FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such transaction would render such definition inapplicable). 

(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 hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual
payment obligation,” respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA. 
 Section 24. Full Recourse. The obligations of
Seller from time to time to pay all amounts due under this Agreement shall be full recourse obligations of Seller. 
 Section 25.
Examination and Oversight by Regulators. Seller agrees that the transactions with Purchaser under this Agreement may be subject to regulatory examination and oversight by one or more Governmental Authorities. Seller shall comply with all
requests made by Purchaser to assist Purchaser in complying with regulatory requirements imposed on Purchaser.
