such credit agreements, repurchase agreements, securitization agreements, agreements relating to borrowings under temporary programs
established by the U.S. government, commercial paper, interest rate swap agreements, warehouse facilities, brokerage agreements,
custodial agreements and such other agreements, instruments and authorizations on their behalf, on such terms and conditions as
the Manager, acting in its sole and absolute discretion, deems necessary or appropriate. This power of attorney is deemed to be
coupled with an interest.

 

(d)              The
Manager may enter into agreements with other parties, including its Affiliates, for the purpose of engaging one or more parties
for and on behalf of the Trust and/or one or more of the Subsidiaries, and at the sole cost and expense of the Operating Partnership
(except to the extent determined by the Operating Partnership, in its sole discretion, to be the expense of a Subsidiary other
than the Operating Partnership), to provide property management, asset management, securitization, leasing, development and/or
other services to the Trust and the Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, Portfolio Management Services) pursuant to agreement(s)
with terms which are then customary for agreements regarding the provision of services to companies that have assets similar in
type, quality and value to the assets of the Trust and the Subsidiaries; provided, that (i) any agreements entered into
with Affiliates of the Manager or any Manager Related Party shall be (A) on terms no more favorable to such Affiliates than would
be obtained from a third party on an arm’s-length basis and (B) approved in advance by a majority of the Independent Trustees,
(ii) with respect to Portfolio Management Services, (A) any such agreements shall be subject to the Trust’s prior written
approval and (B) the Manager shall remain liable for the performance of such Portfolio Management Services, and (iii) with respect
to all agreements or other arrangements with other parties, the Manager shall comply with the requirements of the Trust’s
Related Party Transactions Policy.

 

    12

     

    

 

(e)              To
the extent that the Manager deems necessary or advisable, the Manager may, from time to time, propose to retain one or more additional
entities for the provision of sub-advisory services to the Manager in order to enable the Manager to provide the services to the
Trust and the Subsidiaries specified by this Agreement; provided, that any such agreement (1) shall be on terms and conditions
substantially identical to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or otherwise not adverse to the Trust and the Subsidiaries,
(2) shall not result in an increased Base Management Fee, Incentive Fee or expenses payable hereunder and (3) shall be approved
by a majority of the Independent Trustees.

 

(f)               The Manager may retain, for and on behalf of the Trust and/or one or more of the Subsidiaries, and at the sole cost and
expense of the Operating Partnership (except to the extent determined by the Operating Partnership, in its sole discretion, to
be the expense of a Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership), such services of accountants, legal counsel, appraisers,
insurers, brokers, transfer agents, registrars, financial printers, developers, investment banks, financial advisors, internal
audit service providers, due diligence firms, underwriting review firms, banks and other lenders, surveyors, engineers, environmental
and seismic consultants, information technology consultants, tax advisors and preparers, other consultants, agents, contractors,
vendors, advisors and others as the Manager deems necessary or advisable in connection with the management and operations of the
Trust and the Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Manager shall have the right to cause
any such services to be rendered by its employees or Affiliates. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Operating Partnership
(or such other Subsidiary) shall pay or reimburse the Manager or its Affiliates performing such services for the cost thereof;
provided, that such costs and reimbursements are no greater than those which would be payable to outside professionals or
consultants engaged to perform such services pursuant to agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis.

 

(g)              The
Manager may effect transactions by or through the agency of another person with it or its Affiliates which have an
arrangement under which that party or its Affiliates will from time to time provide to or procure for the Manager and/or its
Affiliates goods, services or other benefits (including, but not limited to, research and advisory services; economic and
political analysis, including valuation and performance measurement; market analysis, data and quotation services; computer
hardware and software incidental to the above goods and services; clearing and custodian services and investment related
publications), the nature of which is such that provision can reasonably be expected to benefit the Trust and the
Subsidiaries as a whole and may contribute to an improvement in the performance of the Trust and the Subsidiaries or the
Manager or its Affiliates in providing services to the Trust and the Subsidiaries on terms that no direct payment is made but
instead the Manager and/or its Affiliates undertake to place business with that party.

 

    13

     

    

 

(h)              In executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Manager will use its best efforts to seek on behalf
of the Trust and the Subsidiaries the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction,
the Manager shall consider all factors that it deems relevant, including, without limitation, the breadth of the market in the
security, the price of the security, the financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer, and the reasonableness
of the commission, if any, both for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In evaluating the best overall terms available,
and in selecting the broker or dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Manager may also consider whether such broker or
dealer furnishes research and other information or services to the Manager.

 

(i)                The Manager has no duty or obligation to seek in advance competitive bidding for the most favorable commission rate applicable
to any particular purchase, sale or other transaction, or to select any broker-dealer on the basis of its purported or “posted”
commission rate, but will endeavor to be aware of the current level of charges of eligible broker-dealers and to minimize the expense
incurred for effecting purchases, sales and other transactions to the extent consistent with the interests and policies of the
Trust and the Subsidiaries. Although the Manager will generally seek competitive commission rates, it is not required to pay the
lowest commission or commission equivalent, provided, that such decision is made in good faith to promote the best interests
of the Trust and the Subsidiaries.

 

(j)                The Manager shall refrain from any action that, in its sole judgment made in good faith, (1) is not in compliance with the
Investment Policies, (2) would adversely affect the qualification of the Trust as a REIT under the Code or the status of the Trust
or any Subsidiary as an entity excluded or exempted from investment company status under the Investment Company Act, or (3) would
violate any law, rule or regulation of any governmental body or agency having jurisdiction over the Trust or any Subsidiary or
of any exchange on which the securities of the Trust may be listed or that would otherwise not be permitted by the Governing Instruments
of the Trust or such Subsidiary. If the Manager is ordered to take any action by the Board of Trustees, the Manager shall promptly
notify the Board of Trustees if it is the Manager’s judgment that such action would adversely affect such status or violate
any such law, rule or regulation or the Governing Instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager, its Affiliates and their
respective managers, officers, trustees, directors, employees and members and any Person providing sub-advisory services to the
Manager shall not be liable to the Trust, the Subsidiaries, the Board of Trustees, the Shareholders or the interest holders in
any Subsidiary for any act or omission by such Person except as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement.

 

    14

     

    

 

(k)              The
Trust (including the Board of Trustees) and the Operating Partnership agree to take all actions reasonably required to permit
and enable the Manager to carry out its duties and obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all steps
reasonably necessary to allow the Manager to file any registration statement or other filing required to be made under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act, rules of the NYSE or such other securities exchange on which the Common Shares may be
listed, the Code or other applicable law, rule or regulation on behalf of the Trust and any applicable Subsidiary in a timely
manner. The Trust and the Operating Partnership further agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the
Manager all resources, information and materials reasonably requested by the Manager to enable the Manager to satisfy its
obligations hereunder, including its obligations to deliver financial statements and any other information or reports with
respect to the Trust and the Subsidiaries. If the Manager is not able to provide a service, or in the reasonable judgment of
the Manager it is not prudent to provide a service, without the approval of the Board of Trustees, as applicable, then the
Manager shall be excused from providing such service (and shall not be in breach of this Agreement) until the applicable
approval has been obtained, which the Manager shall seek promptly upon determining an approval is required.

 

(l)               The Manager shall require each seller or transferor of investment assets to the Trust and the Subsidiaries to make such
representations and warranties regarding such assets as may, in the judgment of the Manager, be necessary and appropriate. In addition,
the Manager shall take such other action as it deems necessary or appropriate with regard to the protection of the investments
of the Trust and the Subsidiaries.

 

(m)            
The Board of Trustees shall periodically review the Investment Policies and the Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’
portfolio of investments but will not review each proposed investment, except as otherwise provided herein. If a majority of the
Independent Trustees determines in such periodic review of transactions that a particular transaction does not comply with the
Investment Policies, then a majority of the Independent Trustees will consider what corrective action, if any, can be taken. The
Manager shall be permitted to rely upon the direction of the Secretary of the Trust to evidence the approval of the Board of Trustees
or the Independent Trustees with respect to a proposed investment.

 

(n)              Neither the Trust nor the Subsidiaries shall invest in any security structured or issued by an entity managed by the Manager
or any Affiliate thereof, unless (i) the investment is made in accordance with the Investment Policies; (ii) such investment is
approved in advance by a majority of the Independent Trustees; and (iii) the investment is made in accordance with applicable laws.

 

(o)              Reporting
Requirements.

 

		(i)	As frequently as the Manager may deem reasonably necessary or advisable, or at the direction of the Board of Trustees, the
Manager shall prepare, or, at the sole cost and expense of the Operating Partnership (except to the extent determined by the Operating
Partnership, in its sole discretion, to be the expense of a Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership), cause to be prepared,
with respect to any investment, reports and other information with respect to such investment as may be reasonably requested by
the Trust.

 

    15

     

    

 

		(ii)	The Manager shall prepare, or, at the sole cost and expense of the Operating Partnership (except to the extent determined by
the Operating Partnership, in its sole discretion, to be the expense of a Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership), cause to be prepared,
all reports, financial or otherwise, with respect to the Trust and the Subsidiaries reasonably required by the Board of Trustees
in order for the Trust and the Subsidiaries to comply with their Governing Instruments, or any other materials required to be filed
with any governmental body or agency, and shall prepare, or, at the sole cost and expense of the Operating Partnership (except
to the extent determined by the Operating Partnership, in its sole discretion, to be the expense of a Subsidiary other than the
Operating Partnership), cause to be prepared, all materials and data necessary to complete such reports and other materials including,
without limitation, an annual audit of the Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’ books of account by a nationally recognized
independent accounting firm.

 

		(iii)	The Manager shall prepare, or, at the sole cost and expense of the Operating Partnership (except to the extent determined by
the Operating Partnership, in its sole discretion, to be the expense of a Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership), cause
to be prepared, and deliver to the Board of Trustees (i) every three (3) months a reasonably detailed report regarding (A) the
Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’ acquisitions, portfolio composition and characteristics, credit quality, performance
and compliance with the Investment Policies and policies approved by the Board of Trustees, (B) the Manager’s financial results,
and (C) such other matters as the Board of Trustees or a majority of the Independent Trustees shall reasonably request, (ii) annually,
relevant market data regarding management fees, servicing fees, and fulfillment and sourcing fees, and (iii) every eighteen (18)
months, relevant market data regarding recapture payments similar to those provided under the MSR Recapture Agreement.

 

(p)              Managers, officers, trustees, directors, members, employees and agents of the Manager or Affiliates of the Manager may serve
as trustees, officers, agents, nominees or signatories for the Trust and the Subsidiaries, to the extent permitted by their Governing
Instruments, as from time to time amended, or by any resolutions duly adopted by the Board of Trustees pursuant to the Trust’s
Governing Instruments or, to the extent applicable, the governing body of any Subsidiary, pursuant to the Governing Instruments
of such Subsidiary. When executing documents or otherwise acting in such capacities for the Trust or any Subsidiary, such Persons
shall indicate in what capacity they are executing on behalf of the Trust or such Subsidiary. Without limiting the foregoing, but
subject to Section 13 below, the Manager will be obligated to supply the Trust with a management team, including a Chief Executive
Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer or similar positions, along with appropriate support personnel, to
provide the management services to be provided by the Manager to the Trust and the Subsidiaries hereunder, who shall devote such
of their time to the management of the Trust and the Subsidiaries as is necessary and appropriate, commensurate with the level
of activity of the Trust from time to time.

 

(q)              The Manager shall provide personnel for service on an investment or similar type of committee.

 

    16

     

    

 

(r)               The
Manager shall maintain reasonable and customary “errors and omissions” insurance coverage and other customary insurance
coverage, in an amount which is comparable to that customarily maintained by other managers or servicers of similar assets.

 

(s)              The Manager shall provide such internal audit, compliance and control services as may be required for the Trust and the
Subsidiaries to comply with applicable law (including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), regulation (including SEC regulations)
and the rules and requirements of the NYSE or such other securities exchange on which the Common Shares may be listed and as otherwise
reasonably requested by the Trust, the Operating Partnership or the Board of Trustees from time to time.

 

(t)               The Manager acknowledges receipt of the Trust’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Policy Against Insider Trading
(collectively, the “Conduct Policies”) and agrees to require its officers and employees who provide services
to the Trust to comply with such Conduct Policies in the performance of such services hereunder or such comparable policies as
shall in substance hold officers and employees of the Manager to at least the standards of conduct set forth in the Conduct Policies.

 

(u)              Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, except to the extent that the payment of additional
moneys is proven by the Trust to have been required as a direct result of the Manager’s acts or omissions which result in
the right of the Trust to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement, the Manager shall not be required
to expend money (“Excess Funds”) in connection with any expenses that are required to be paid for or reimbursed
by the Operating Partnership (or any other Subsidiary) pursuant to Section 8 in excess of that contained in any applicable Trust
Account (as herein defined) or otherwise made available by the Operating Partnership (or such other Subsidiary) to be expended
by the Manager hereunder. Failure of the Manager to expend Excess Funds out-of-pocket shall not give rise or be a contributing
factor to the right of the Trust under Section 11(c) of this Agreement to terminate this Agreement due to the Manager’s unsatisfactory
performance.

 

(v)              In performing its duties under this Section 2, the Manager shall be entitled to rely reasonably on qualified experts and
professionals (including, without limitation, accountants, legal counsel and other professional service providers) hired by the
Manager at the sole cost and expense of the Operating Partnership (except to the extent determined by the Operating Partnership,
in its sole discretion, to be the expense of a Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership).

 

    17

     

    

 

Section
3. Additional Activities of the Manager; Right of First Refusal. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 3 and the Investment Policies, nothing in this Agreement shall (i) prevent the Manager or any of its Affiliates,
managers, officers, trustees, directors, employees or members from engaging in other businesses or from rendering services of
any kind to any other Person or entity, whether or not the investment objectives or policies of any such other Person or
entity are similar to those of the Trust or (ii) in any way bind or restrict the Manager or any of its Affiliates, managers,
officers, trustees, directors, employees or members from buying, selling or trading any securities or commodities for their
own accounts or for the account of others for whom the Manager or any of its Affiliates, managers, officers, trustees,
directors, employees or members may be acting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the term of this Agreement, (i) the
Manager and its Affiliates shall perform the services identified herein exclusively for the benefit of the Trust and
(ii) neither the Manager nor any of its Affiliates may act as the manager to, or otherwise provide investment advisory
services to, any other entity a primary investment objective of which is to invest in distressed residential mortgage loans,
in each case excluding (a) any entity in which the Trust or any of its Subsidiaries is an investor and (b) any
government-related entity; provided, however, that the Manager and/or any of its Affiliates may act as manager
to an entity that it would otherwise not be permitted to manage pursuant to the foregoing if the Trust and its Subsidiaries
are not able to pursue additional investment in distressed residential mortgage loans due to limitations on available capital
and the Trust and its Subsidiaries determine not to raise additional capital, as long as the Independent Trustees do not
determine that such activities would be detrimental to the Trust and its Subsidiaries.

 

Prior to the undertaking by the Manager
or its Affiliates of any new investment opportunity or any other business opportunity requiring a source of capital with respect
to which the Manager or its Affiliates will earn a management, advisory, consulting or similar fee, the Manager shall present to
the Trust such new opportunity and the material terms on which the Manager proposes to provide services to the Trust in pursuing
such opportunity on behalf of the Trust. If the Board of Trustees determines that it is in the best interest of the Trust to pursue
such opportunity, the Trust shall cause notice of such determination to be given to the Manager within 10 days of the presentation
of such opportunity by the Manager to the Trust. If the Manager provides such notice, the Trust and the Manager shall negotiate
in good faith to agree to the terms and documentation on which the Manager would provide services to the Trust in pursuing the
opportunity. In the event the Trust and the Manager are unable to reach agreement on such terms and documentation after such good
faith negotiations, the Manager may pursue the opportunity with third parties, provided, however, that under such circumstances
the material terms on which the Manager provides services to third parties in pursuing the opportunity shall be no more favorable
to such parties than the terms offered to the Trust unless the Manager presents such more favorable terms to the Trust to reconsider
such opportunity in accordance with this paragraph prior to proceeding with the third parties.

 

While information and recommendations supplied
to the Trust and the Subsidiaries shall, in the Manager’s reasonable and good faith judgment, be appropriate under the circumstances
and in light of the investment objectives and policies of the Trust and the Subsidiaries, they may be different from the information
and recommendations supplied by the Manager or any Affiliate of the Manager to others. The Trust and the Subsidiaries shall be
entitled to equitable treatment under the circumstances in receiving information, recommendations and any other services, but the
Trust and the Operating Partnership recognize that the Trust and the Subsidiaries are not entitled to receive preferential treatment
as compared with the treatment given by the Manager or any Affiliate of the Manager to others. The Trust and the Subsidiaries shall
have the benefit of the Manager’s best judgment and effort in rendering services hereunder and, in furtherance of the foregoing,
the Manager shall not undertake activities that, in its good faith judgment, will adversely affect the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement.

 

    18

     

    

 

Section
4. Agency. The Manager shall act as agent of the Trust and the Subsidiaries in making, acquiring, financing
and disposing of investments, disbursing and collecting the funds of the Trust and the Subsidiaries, paying the debts and
fulfilling the obligations of the Trust and the Subsidiaries, supervising the performance of professionals engaged by or on
behalf of the Trust and the Subsidiaries and handling, prosecuting and settling any claims of or against the Trust and the
Subsidiaries, the Board of Trustees, holders of the Trust’s or any Subsidiary’s securities or representatives or
properties of the Trust and the Subsidiaries.

 

Section
5. Bank Accounts. At the direction of the Board of Trustees, the Manager may establish and maintain one or more
bank accounts in the name of the Trust or any Subsidiary (any such account, a “Trust Account”), and may collect
and deposit into any such account or accounts, and disburse funds from any such account or accounts, under such terms and conditions
as the Board of Trustees may approve; and the Manager shall from time to time render appropriate accountings of such collections
and payments to the Board of Trustees and, upon request, to the auditors of the Trust or any Subsidiary.

 

Section
6. Records; Confidentiality. (a) The Manager shall maintain appropriate books of accounts and records
relating to services performed hereunder, and such books of account and records shall be accessible for inspection by
representatives of the Trust or any Subsidiary at any time during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice. The
Manager shall keep confidential any and all non-public information, written or oral, obtained by it in connection with the
services rendered hereunder (“Confidential Information”) and shall not use Confidential Information except
in furtherance of its duties under this Agreement or disclose Confidential Information, in whole or in part, to any Person
other than (1) to its Affiliates, managers, officers, trustees, directors, employees, members, agents, representatives or
advisors who need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of rendering services hereunder, (2) to appraisers,
financing sources and others in the ordinary course of the Trust’s and any Subsidiary’s business ((1) and (2)
collectively, “Manager Permitted Disclosure Parties”), (3) in connection with any governmental or
regulatory filings of the Trust or any Subsidiary or disclosure or presentations to Trust investors, (4) to governmental
officials having jurisdiction over the Trust, (5) as required by law or legal process to which the Manager or any Person to
whom disclosure is permitted hereunder is a party, or (6) with the consent of the Board of Trustees. The Manager agrees to
inform each of its Manager Permitted Disclosure Parties of the non-public nature of the Confidential Information and to
direct such Persons to treat such Confidential Information in accordance with the terms hereof. Nothing herein shall prevent
the Manager from disclosing Confidential Information (1) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (2) upon the
request or demand of, or pursuant to any law or regulation, any regulatory agency or authority, (3) to the extent reasonably
required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, or (4) to its legal counsel or independent auditors; provided, however,
that with respect to clauses (1) and (2), it is agreed that the Manager will provide the Trust and the Operating Partnership
with prompt written notice of such order, request or demand so that the Trust and the Operating Partnership may seek an
appropriate protective order and/or waive the Manager’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, failing
the entry of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Manager is, in the opinion of counsel, required to
disclose Confidential Information, the Manager may disclose only that portion of such information that its counsel advises is
legally required without liability hereunder; provided, that the Manager agrees to exercise its best efforts to obtain
reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, each of the following shall be deemed to be excluded from the provisions hereof: any Confidential Information that
(A) is available to the public from a source other than the Manager, (B) is released in writing by the Trust to the public or
to Persons who are not under similar obligation of confidentiality to the Trust and the Subsidiaries, or (C) is obtained by
the Manager from a third party without breach by such third party of an obligation of confidence with respect to the
Confidential Information disclosed.

 

    19

     

    

 

(b)              Each of the Trust and the Operating Partnership shall keep confidential, and shall cause any other Subsidiary to keep confidential,
any and all Confidential Information and shall not use, and shall cause any other Subsidiary not to use, Confidential Information
except in furtherance of the terms of this Agreement or disclose Confidential Information, in whole or in part, to any Person other
than (1) to its Affiliates, officers, trustees, directors, employees, members, agents, representatives or advisors who need to
know such Confidential Information for the purpose of fulfilling the Trust’s and the Operating Partnership’s obligations
hereunder (collectively, “Trust Permitted Disclosure Parties”), (2) as required by law or legal process to which
the Trust or any Subsidiary or any Person to whom disclosure is permitted hereunder is a party, or (3) with the consent of the
Manager. Each of the Trust and the Operating Partnership agrees to (1) inform each of its Trust Permitted Disclosure Parties of
the non-public nature of the Confidential Information and to direct such Persons to treat such Confidential Information in accordance
with the terms hereof and (2) not disclose any Confidential Information to its Trust Permitted Disclosure Parties upon the termination
of this Agreement in accordance with Section 11 hereof. Nothing herein shall prevent the Trust or any Subsidiary from disclosing
Confidential Information (1) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (2) upon the request or demand of, or pursuant
to any law or regulation, any regulatory agency or authority, (3) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise
of any remedy hereunder, or (4) to its legal counsel or independent auditors; provided, however, that with respect
to clauses (1) and (2), it is agreed that the Trust and the Operating Partnership will provide the Manager with prompt written
notice of such order, request or demand so that the Manager may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive the Trust’s
and the Operating Partnership’s compliance with the provisions of this Section. If, failing the entry of a protective order
or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Trust or any Subsidiary is, in the opinion of counsel, required to disclose Confidential
Information, the Trust or such Subsidiary may disclose only that portion of such information that its counsel advises is legally
required without liability hereunder; provided, that each of the Trust and the Operating Partnership shall exercise, and
shall cause any other Subsidiary to exercise, its best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded such information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the following shall be deemed to be excluded
from the provisions hereof: any Confidential Information that (A) is available to the public from a source other than the Trust
or any Subsidiary, (B) is released in writing by the Manager to the public or to Persons who are not under similar obligation of
confidentiality to the Manager, or (C) is obtained by the Trust or any Subsidiary from a third party without breach by such third
party of an obligation of confidence with respect to the Confidential Information disclosed. For the avoidance of doubt, information
about the systems, employees, policies, procedures and investment portfolio (other than investments in which the Trust or any Subsidiary
and the Manager have co-invested) shall be deemed to be included within the meaning of “Confidential Information” for
purposes of the Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’ obligations pursuant to this Section 6(b).

 

(c)              The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period of one
year.

 

    20

     

    

 

Section 7. Compensation. (a) For
the services rendered under this Agreement, the Operating Partnership shall pay to the Manager the Base Management Fee and the
Incentive Fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained in this Agreement, in the event that any of the
services provided hereunder by the Manager are rendered to or for the benefit of any Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership,
then, in the sole discretion of the Operating Partnership, a portion of the Base Management Fee and/or the Incentive Fee, as determined
by the Operating Partnership, shall be payable by such Subsidiary.

 

(b)              The parties acknowledge that the Base Management Fee is intended to compensate the Manager for the costs and expenses of
its executive officers and employees (and certain related overhead and employee costs not otherwise reimbursable under Section
8 below) incurred in providing to the Trust the investment advisory services and certain general management services rendered under
this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust, in its sole and absolute discretion, may separately compensate any of
the Manager’s executive officers or employees in the form of equity awards granted under and in accordance with the terms
of any of the Trust’s equity incentive plans in place from time to time.

 

(c)              The Base Management Fee shall be payable in arrears in cash, in quarterly installments commencing with the fiscal quarter
in which this Agreement was executed (with such initial payment pro-rated based on the number of days during such quarter that
this Agreement was in effect). The Manager shall calculate each installment of the Base Management Fee within thirty (30) days
after the end of the fiscal quarter with respect to which such installment is payable. A copy of the computations made by the Manager
to calculate such installment shall thereafter, for informational purposes only, promptly be delivered to the Board of Trustees
and, upon such delivery, payment of such installment of the Base Management Fee shown therein shall be due and payable no later
than the date which is five (5) Business Days after the date of delivery to the Board of Trustees of such computations.

 

(d)              The Manager shall compute each installment of the Incentive Fee within 30 days after the end of the fiscal quarter with
respect to which such installment is payable. A copy of the computations made by the Manager to calculate such installment shall
thereafter, for informational purposes only, promptly be delivered to the Board of Trustees and, upon such delivery, payment of
such installment of the Incentive Fee shown therein shall be due and payable no later than the date which is five (5) Business
Days after the date of delivery to the Board of Trustees of such computations.

 

(e)              Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the written request (a “Fee Negotiation Request”) of the
Company or the Manager following a determination by the Company or the Manager that the rates of compensation payable to the
Manager hereunder differ materially from market rates of compensation for services comparable to those provided hereunder,
which request includes a proposal for revised rates of compensation hereunder, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good
faith to amend the provisions of this Agreement relating to the compensation of the Manager in order to cause such
compensation to be materially consistent with market rates of compensation for services comparable to those provided
hereunder (a “Fee Amendment”); provided, however, that no such request shall be made until the second
anniversary of the effective date of this Agreement, after which time each party may make such request (i) once with respect
to fees to be paid during the remainder of the Initial Term, which request shall be made prior to the expiration of the
Initial Term, and (ii) once with respect to fees to be paid during any Automatic Renewal Term, which request shall be made at
least 210 days prior to the start of such Automatic Renewal Term. If the parties are unable to reach agreement on the terms
of a Fee Amendment within thirty (30) days of the date of delivery of the relevant Fee Negotiation Request, then the terms of
such Fee Amendment shall be determined by final and binding arbitration in accordance with Section 7(f).

 

    21

     

    

 

(f)               All disputes, differences and controversies of the Company or the Manager relating to a Fee Amendment (individually, a “Dispute”
and, collectively, “Disputes”) shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, subject to the following provisions:

 

		(i)	Following the delivery of a written demand for arbitration by either the Company or the Manager, each party shall choose one
(1) arbitrator within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such written demand and the two chosen arbitrators shall mutually,
within ten (10) Business Days after selection select a third (3rd) arbitrator (each, an “Arbitrator” and together,
the “Arbitrators”), each of whom shall be a retired judge selected from a roster of arbitrators provided by
the AAA. If the third (3rd) Arbitrator is not selected within fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of the written demand for
arbitration (or such other time period as the Company and the Manager may agree), the Company and the Manager shall promptly request
that the commercial panel of the AAA select an independent Arbitrator meeting such criteria.

 

		(ii)	The rules of arbitration shall be the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association; provided, however,
that notwithstanding any provisions of the Commercial Arbitration Rules to the contrary, unless otherwise mutually agreed to by
the Company and the Manager, the sole discovery available to each party shall be its right to conduct up to two (2) non-expert
depositions of no more than three (3) hours of testimony each.

 

		(iii)	The Arbitrators shall render a decision by majority decision within three (3) months after the date of appointment, unless
the Company and the Manager agree to extend such time. The decision shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Manager;
provided, however, that such decision shall not restrict either the Company or the Manager from terminating this
Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

		(iv)	Each party shall pay its own expenses in connection with the resolution of Disputes, including attorneys’ fees, unless
determined otherwise by the Arbitrator.

 

    22

     

    

 

		(v)	The Company and the Manager agree that the existence, conduct and content of any arbitration pursuant to this Section 7(f)
shall be kept confidential and neither the Company nor the Manager shall disclose to any Person any information about such arbitration,
except in connection with such arbitration or as may be required by law or by any regulatory authority (or any exchange on which
such party’s securities are listed) or for financial reporting purposes in such party’s financial statements.

		(xx)	the costs and expenses incurred with respect to administering the Trust’s incentive plans;

 

		(xxi)	the costs and expenses of maintaining compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and applicable regulatory body rules and

		(xxii)	expenses relating to any office or office facilities, including disaster backup recovery sites and facilities, maintained for
the Trust or any Subsidiary separate from the offices of the Manager;

 

    26

     

    

 

 

		(xxiii)	all other expenses of the Trust or any Subsidiary relating to the business and investment operations of the Trust and the Subsidiaries,
including, without limitation, the costs and expenses of acquiring, originating, owning, protecting, maintaining, financing, refinancing,
developing, modifying and disposing of investments that are not the responsibility of the Manager under Section 9(a) of this Agreement;
and

 

		(xxiv)	all other expenses actually incurred by the Manager or its Affiliates or their respective managers, officers, trustees, directors,
employees, members, representatives or agents, or any Affiliates thereof, that are reasonably necessary for the performance by
the Manager of its duties and functions under this Agreement.

 

In addition, the Operating Partnership (or
any other Subsidiary, as provided below) will be required to pay the Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’ pro rata portion
of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of the Manager
and its Affiliates required for the Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’ operations. These expenses will be allocated between
the Manager, on the one hand, and the Operating Partnership (or such other Subsidiary), on the other hand, based on the ratio of
the Trust’s and the Subsidiaries’ proportion of gross assets compared to all remaining gross assets managed or owned
by the Manager and/or its Affiliates as calculated at each fiscal quarter end. The Manager, the Trust and the Operating Partnership
will modify this allocation methodology, subject to the Board of Trustees’ approval, if the allocation becomes inequitable.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other
provision contained in this Agreement, in the event that any of the services provided hereunder by the Manager are rendered to
or for the benefit of any Subsidiary other than the Operating Partnership, then, in the sole discretion of the Operating Partnership,
a portion of the expense reimbursements to the Manager and/or its Affiliates hereunder, as determined by the Operating Partnership,
shall be payable by such Subsidiary.

 

    27

     

    

 

(c)              
Costs and expenses incurred by the Manager or an Affiliate thereof on behalf of the Trust or any Subsidiary shall be reimbursed
quarterly to the Manager. The Manager shall prepare a written statement in reasonable detail documenting the costs and expenses
of the Trust and the Subsidiaries and those incurred by the Manager on behalf of the Trust or any Subsidiary during each fiscal
quarter, and shall deliver such written statement to the Trust within 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter. The Operating
Partnership (or any other Subsidiary, as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph) shall pay all amounts payable to the
Manager pursuant to this Section 8 within five (5) Business Days after the date of delivery of such written statement without demand,
deduction, offset or delay. Cost and expense reimbursement to the Manager shall be subject to adjustment at the end of each calendar
year in connection with the annual audit of the Trust and the Subsidiaries. The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement to the extent such expenses have previously been incurred or are incurred in
connection with such expiration or termination.

 

(d)              
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may, at its option, elect not to seek reimbursement for certain expenses during
a given quarterly period, which determination shall not be deemed to construe a waiver of reimbursement for similar expenses in
future periods.

 

Section
9. Limits of the Manager’s Responsibility; Indemnification. (a) The Manager assumes no responsibility
under this Agreement other than to provide the services specified hereunder in good faith and shall not be responsible for any
action of the Board of Trustees in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendations of the Manager; provided
that to the extent that officers of the Manager also serve as officers of the Trust, such officers shall owe the Trust duties
under Maryland law in their capacity as officers of the Trust, which may include the duty to exercise reasonable care in the performance
of such officers’ responsibilities, as well as duties of loyalty, good faith and candid disclosure. None of the Manager
or its Affiliates or their respective managers, officers, trustees, directors, employees or members or any Person providing sub-advisory
services to the Manager will be liable to the Trust, any Subsidiary, the Board of Trustees, or the Shareholders or interest holders
of any Subsidiary for any acts or omissions performed under this Agreement, except because of acts constituting bad faith, willful
misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the Manager’s duties under this Agreement. The Trust and the Operating
Partnership shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Manager and its Affiliates and their
respective managers, officers, trustees, directors, employees and members and any Person providing sub-advisory services to the
Manager (each, a “Manager Indemnified Party”), with respect to all expenses, losses, damages, liabilities,
demands, charges and claims of any nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively “Losses”)
in respect of or arising from any acts or omissions of such Manager Indemnified Party, performed in good faith under this Agreement
and not constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties of the Manager under
this Agreement.

 

(b)              
The Manager shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Trust (or any Subsidiary), and
the trustees, officers and Shareholders and each Person, if any, controlling the Trust (each, a “Trust Indemnified Party”;
a Manager Indemnified Party and a Trust Indemnified Party are each sometimes hereinafter referred to as an “Indemnified
Party”) with respect to all Losses in respect of or arising from any acts or omissions under this Agreement constituting
bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties of the Manager under this Agreement or any
claims by the Manager’s employees relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by the Manager.

 

    28

     

    

 

(c)               In
case any such claim, suit, action or proceeding (a “Claim”) is brought against any Indemnified Party in
respect of which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant hereto, the Indemnified Party shall give
prompt written notice thereof to the indemnifying party, which notice shall include all documents and information in the
possession of or under the control of such Indemnified Party reasonably necessary for the evaluation and/or defense of such
Claim and shall specifically state that indemnification for such Claim is being sought under this Section; provided, however,
that the failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not limit or affect such Indemnified
Party’s rights to be indemnified pursuant to this Section. Upon receipt of such notice of Claim (together with such
documents and information from such Indemnified Party), the indemnifying party shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good
faith defend any such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, which counsel may, without
limiting the rights of such Indemnified Party pursuant to the next succeeding sentence of this Section, also represent the
indemnifying party in such investigation, action or proceeding. In the alternative, such Indemnified Party may elect to
conduct the defense of the Claim, if (1) such Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the conduct of its defense by the
indemnifying party could be materially prejudicial to its interests, (2) the indemnifying party refuses to defend (or fails
to give written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of a notice of Claim that the indemnifying
party assumes such defense), or (3) the indemnifying party shall have failed, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable
judgment, to defend the Claim in good faith. The indemnifying party may settle any Claim against such Indemnified Party
without such Indemnified Party’s consent, provided, (1) such settlement is without any Losses whatsoever to such
Indemnified Party, (2) the settlement does not include or require any admission of liability or culpability by such
Indemnified Party and (3) the indemnifying party obtains an effective written release of liability for such Indemnified Party
from the party to the Claim with whom such settlement is being made, which release must be reasonably acceptable to such
Indemnified Party, and a dismissal with prejudice with respect to all claims made by the party against such Indemnified Party
in connection with such Claim. The applicable Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party, at
the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, in connection with the defense or settlement of any Claim in accordance
with the terms hereof. If such Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Section to elect to defend such Claim by
counsel of its own choosing and so elects, then the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any good faith settlement of
such Claim entered into by such Indemnified Party. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Indemnified
Party may pay or settle any Claim and seek reimbursement therefor under this Section.

 

(d)              
The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

Section
10. No Joint Venture. The Trust, the Operating Partnership and the Manager are not partners or joint venturers
with each other and nothing herein shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers or impose any liability as
such on any of them.

 

Section
11. Term; Termination.

 

(a)              
Initial Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof and shall continue in operation, unless terminated
in accordance with the terms hereof, until June 30, 2025 (the “Initial Term”).

 

(b)              
Automatic Renewal Terms. After the Initial Term, this Agreement shall be deemed renewed automatically every 18 months
for an additional 18 month period (an “Automatic Renewal Term”) unless the Trust or the Manager terminates this
Agreement in accordance with Section 11(c) of this Agreement.

 

    29

     

    

 

(c)               Termination
of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, upon the expiration of the
Initial Term or any Automatic Renewal Term and upon at least 180 days’ prior written notice to the Manager or the
Trust, as applicable (the “Termination Notice”), either (A) the Trust (without cause), upon the
affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the Independent Trustees or by a vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the
Trust’s outstanding Common Shares (other than those Common Shares held by the Manager or any Affiliate thereof), in
each case based upon (1) unsatisfactory performance by the Manager that is materially detrimental to the Trust and the
Subsidiaries or (2) the determination that the compensation payable to the Manager under this Agreement is not fair; or (B)
the Manager (without cause) may, in connection with the expiration of the Initial Term or any Automatic Renewal Term, decline
to renew this Agreement (any such nonrenewal, a “Nonrenewal Termination”); provided, that the Trust
shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement under clause (2) above if the Manager agrees to continue to provide
services under this Agreement at fees that at least two-thirds of the Independent Trustees determine to be fair pursuant to
the procedures set forth below.

 

If the Trust (but not the Manager) issues
the Termination Notice, the Operating Partnership shall be obligated to pay the Manager the Termination Fee within 90 days of the
last day of the Initial Term or Automatic Renewal Term, as applicable (the “Effective Termination Date”); provided,
however, that in the event a Termination Notice is given in connection with a determination that the compensation payable
to the Manager is not fair, the Manager shall have the right to renegotiate such compensation by delivering to the Trust and the
Operating Partnership, no fewer than 45 days prior to the prospective Effective Termination Date, written notice (any such notice,
a “Notice of Proposal to Negotiate”) of its intention to renegotiate its compensation under this Agreement.
Thereupon, the Trust (represented by the Independent Trustees), the Operating Partnership and the Manager shall endeavor to negotiate
in good faith the revised compensation payable to the Manager under this Agreement. Provided that the Manager, the Trust and the
Operating Partnership agree to the terms of the revised compensation to be payable to the Manager within 45 days following the
receipt of the Notice of Proposal to Negotiate, the Termination Notice shall be deemed of no force and effect and this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect on the terms stated in this Agreement, except that the compensation payable to the Manager
hereunder shall be the revised compensation then agreed upon by the parties to this Agreement. The Trust, the Operating Partnership
and the Manager agree to execute and deliver an amendment to this Agreement setting forth such revised compensation promptly upon
reaching an agreement regarding the same. In the event that the Trust, the Operating Partnership and the Manager are unable to
agree to the terms of the revised compensation to be payable to the Manager during such 45-day period, this Agreement shall terminate,
such termination to be effective on the date which is the later of (A) 10 days following the end of such 45-day period and (B)
the Effective Termination Date originally set forth in the Termination Notice. In the event of any Nonrenewal Termination, after
delivery of the Termination Notice, the Manager shall thereafter have the authority to invest only such capital that represents
the return of capital resulting from the liquidation or repayment of investments of the Trust or any Subsidiary existing at the
time of the Termination Notice, and subject to the Investment Policies and all other existing investment and other policies of
the Trust. The Manager shall cooperate with the Trust and the Subsidiaries in executing an orderly transition of the management
of the Trust’s assets to a new manager. The Trust may terminate this Agreement for cause pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement
even after a Nonrenewal Termination and no Termination Fee shall be payable.

 

    30

     

    

 

(d)              
 If (i) either of the MBS Agreement or the MSR Recapture Agreement is terminated by PennyMac Corp. without cause as provided
in each such agreement or (ii) the Servicing Agreement is terminated by the Operating Partnership without cause as provided in
such agreement, the Manager shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without cause upon notice to the Trust, provided
that if such termination occurs due to a termination of the MBS Agreement, MSR Recapture Agreement or Servicing Agreement at any
time other than at the end of the Initial Term or any Automatic Renewal Term, the Operating Partnership shall be obligated to pay
the Manager the Termination Fee within 90 days of receipt of such notice from the Manager.

 

(e)              
If any of the MBS Agreement, the MSR Recapture Agreement or the Servicing Agreement is terminated by PennyMac Loan Services
without cause as provided in each such agreement, the Trust shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without cause upon
notice to the Manager, provided that under such circumstances the Operating Partnership shall not be obligated to pay the
Termination Fee.

 

(f)               
If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 11 or pursuant to Section 12, 13 or 14, such termination shall
be without any further liability or obligation of any party to the other, except with respect to the payment of a Termination Fee,
if applicable, and except as provided in Sections 6, 8 and 15 of this Agreement; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Manager shall be liable to the Trust for any breach of this Agreement, and nothing herein shall limit the Trust from pursuing
any and all remedies available to it at law or equity in connection with any such breach. In addition, Sections 9, 17(b) and 18(e)
of this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement.

 

Section
12. Assignments. (a) Except as set forth in Section 12(b)
of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate automatically without payment of the Termination Fee in the event of its assignment,
in whole or in part, by the Manager, unless such assignment is consented to in writing by the Trust with the consent of a majority
of the Independent Trustees. Any such permitted assignment shall bind the assignee under this Agreement in the same manner as the
Manager is bound, and the Manager shall be liable to the Trust and the Subsidiaries for all errors or omissions of the assignee
under any such assignment. In addition, the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Trust and the Operating Partnership a counterpart
of this Agreement naming such assignee as the Manager. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Trust or the Operating Partnership
without the prior written consent of the Manager, except in the case of assignment by the Trust or the Operating Partnership to
another REIT (in the case of the Trust) or other organization which is a successor (by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets,
or similar transaction) to the Trust or the Operating Partnership, in which case such successor organization shall be bound under
this Agreement and by the terms of such assignment in the same manner as the Trust and the Operating Partnership are bound under
this Agreement.

 

    31

     

    

 

(b)               Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement, the Manager may subcontract and assign any or all of its responsibilities under this
Agreement to any of its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement applicable to any such subcontract or
assignment, and the Trust and the Operating Partnership hereby consent to any such assignment and subcontracting. In
addition, provided that the Manager provides prior written notice to the Trust and the Operating Partnership for
informational purposes only, nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude any pledge, hypothecation or other transfer

any nature whatsoever, which arise in connection with the Manager’s release of such money or other property in accordance
with the terms of this Section 16. Indemnification pursuant to this provision shall be in addition to any right of the Manager

by the Servicer hereunder in order to effect the transfer of servicing to the Servicer on the related Inbound Transfer Date:

 

(a)              
Delivery of Mortgage Loan Data. With respect to each pool of Mortgage Loans to be serviced under this Agreement, no later
than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the Inbound Transfer Date (or as otherwise mutually agreed between the Owner and the Servicer),
the Owner shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer complete and accurate Mortgage Loan data reflecting the status

Mortgage Loan history file; (vi) servicing activities; and (vii) any other pertinent information reasonably required by the Servicer.
Such information shall be provided to the Servicer in such electronic format as is mutually agreed upon by both parties.

 

(b)              
Delivery of Notification Letter. With respect to each pool of Mortgage Loans to be serviced under this Agreement, the Owner
shall use its best efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer a Notice of Inbound Transfer for such Mortgage
Loans not less than thirty (30) days prior to the related Inbound Transfer Date (or as otherwise mutually agreed between the Owner
and the Servicer). The Notice of Inbound Transfer shall include a statement of the related delinquency methodology to be used

Date (or as otherwise mutually agreed between the Owner and the Servicer). Any costs and expenses to deliver the aforementioned
files shall be borne by the Owner.

 

(d)              
Notice to Mortgagors. The Owner shall cause to be provided to each Mortgagor a “Notice of assignment, sale or transfer

unapplied interest on escrow balances accrued through the related Inbound Transfer Date; (v) all buydown funds held by the Owner
or any prior servicer as of the related Inbound Transfer Date; and (vi) all other related amounts held by the respective owner
of the Mortgage Loan or any prior servicer of such Mortgage Loan as of the related Inbound Transfer Date that the Owner or any
prior servicer is not entitled to retain. The Owner shall be responsible for any interest on escrow amounts held by the Owner
prior to the related Inbound Transfer Date. The Servicer shall be entitled to deduct from Servicer’s monthly remittance
to the Owner any shortfalls in Escrow Payments that result from Owner’s failure to deliver any Escrow Payment in full to
the Servicer. To the extent the Custodial Account has insufficient funds to fully fund such shortfalls in the Escrow Payments
plus all other amounts due to the Servicer as set forth in Section 5.01 herein, the Owner shall wire such shortfall amount
to the Servicer promptly upon receipt of notice of such shortfalls from the Servicer.

 

(f)               
Outstanding Servicing Advances. The Servicer agrees to reimburse the prior servicer or the Owner, as applicable, within
thirty (30) days following the related Inbound Transfer Date for all unreimbursed Servicing Advances made by the prior servicer
or the Owner with respect to the Mortgage Loans as of such Inbound Transfer Date (the “Outstanding Owner Servicing Advances”)
and for which the prior servicer or the Owner has provided to the Servicer reasonably detailed documentation evidencing such advances.
The Servicer shall have no obligation to board Outstanding Owner Servicing Advances or reimburse the prior servicer unless the
Servicer has received reasonably detailed documentation allowing the Servicer to collect such advances from the Mortgagor.

SERVICING
OF NON-AGENCY MORTGAGE LOANS

 

		Section
                               4.01	Servicer
                                         to Act as Servicer of Non-Agency Mortgage Loans.

 

The
Servicer shall service the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and its obligations in
respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be limited to those set forth in this Agreement. To the extent set forth in and subject to
the terms of the Delegation of Authority Matrix attached as Exhibit 10 hereto, the Owner hereby delegates authority to
the Servicer to carry out the Servicer’s servicing and administration duties with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans
without obtaining the Owner’s prior written approval.

 

Consistent
with the terms of this Agreement, the PennyMac Property Preservation Program, and Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer may,
with respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii)
extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note, or waive, in whole or in part, a Prepayment Penalty. Unless
in compliance with the PennyMac Property Preservation Program, the terms of any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan may only be modified,
varied or forgiven with the prior written consent of the Owner while the Non-Agency Mortgage Loan remains outstanding. The Servicer’s
analysis supporting any forbearance and the conclusion that any forbearance meets the standards of this section shall be reflected
in writing or electronically in the Servicing File. The Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on
behalf of itself and the Owner, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and
all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties.
If reasonably required by the Servicer, the Owner shall furnish the Servicer with a fully executed Power of Attorney and other
documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement
with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans. With respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Servicer may request the consent
of the Owner in writing by certified mail, overnight courier or such other means as may be agreed to by the parties to a course
of action that the Servicer proposes to take under this Agreement. Unless the Owner shall give written notice to the Servicer
that it objects to any such recommended course of action within ten (10) Business Days immediately following the day on which
the Owner received the Servicer’s written consent request (together with its recommended course of action and relevant supporting
documentation), the Owner shall be deemed to have consented to such recommended course of action, and Servicer may take the action
recommended to the Owner, unless the Servicer determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such action is no longer prudent
or applicable and the Servicer notifies the Owner of such decision not to act. In the event that the Owner shall object to the
Servicer’s recommended course of action, Servicer shall take such action as is required by the Owner, and the Servicer shall
have no liability therefor if it is not negligent in performing such action. Further, to the extent the Servicer has provided
the Owner with reasonably timely notice, the Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Servicer from and against any penalty,
fine or damages that may result from the Owner’s decision to wait for any period of time up to ten (10) Business Days before
providing Servicer with direction as to the course of action to be taken as permitted in the second immediately preceding sentence.
In addition, except in accordance with the PennyMac Property Preservation Program, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer
may not waive any Prepayment Penalty or portion thereof required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note unless (i) the Servicer
determines that such waiver would maximize recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, taking into account
the value of such Prepayment Penalty and such Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, and the waiver of such Prepayment Penalty is standard
and customary in servicing similar Non-Agency Mortgage Loans (including the waiver of a Prepayment Penalty in connection with
a refinancing of the Mortgage Loan related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default) or (ii) the enforceability thereof
is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership or other similar laws relating to creditor’s rights or
(2) due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (iii) in the Servicer’s reasonable
judgment, (1) the waiver of such prepayment penalty relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default, (2) such waiver
would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Penalty and such Mortgage Loan and
(3) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans similar to such Non-Agency Mortgage Loan (including
any waiver of a prepayment penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is related to a default
or a reasonably foreseeable default). In no event will the Servicer waive a Prepayment Penalty in connection with a refinancing
of a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is not related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default. In servicing and administering
the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and exercise the same care
that it customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering mortgage loans for its own account, where such procedures
do not conflict with the requirements of this Agreement, and the Owner’s reliance on the Servicer. In addition, the Servicer
shall retain adequate personnel to effect such servicing and administration of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans. Servicer shall have
no obligation to collect a Prepayment Penalty with respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan unless the Servicer is provided with
such information electronically; provided, however, that the Servicer shall compare the Notice of Inbound Transfer provided
by the Owner and any electronic data regarding the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans provided by the previous servicer of such Non-Agency
Mortgage Loans and provide the Owner with prompt written notice of any discrepancies with respect to information regarding Prepayment
Penalties.

The
Owner may sell and transfer, in whole or in part, some or all of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans at any time and from time to time
(including, without limitation, in connection with a Private Securitization Transaction or a Public Securitization Transaction).
Upon such execution, the Servicer shall mark its books and records to reflect the ownership of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans by
such transferee.

 

The
Servicer shall notify MERS of the ownership interest of Owner in each MOM Loan. At any time during the term of this Agreement,
Owner may direct the Servicer to cause any MOM Loan to be deactivated from the MERS System.

 

The
Servicing File maintained by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately marked and identified in the Servicer’s
computer system to clearly reflect the ownership of the related Non-Agency Mortgage Loan by the Owner. The Servicer shall release
from its custody the contents of any Servicing File maintained by it only in accordance with this Agreement.

 

    27

     

    

 

The
Servicer shall be responsible for the actions of any vendors which the Servicer utilizes to carry out its obligations hereunder.
The Owner shall promptly reimburse the Servicer for any fees paid to such vendors by the Servicer.

 

The
Servicer shall maintain adequate capacity to service the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, as well as other mortgage loans that it may
service (including mortgage loans held by other entities managed by the PennyMac REIT Manager or any of its Affiliates).

                                         of Mortgage Loans.

 

In
the event that any payment due under any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan and not postponed pursuant to Section 4.01 is not paid
when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the
Non-Agency Mortgage Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Servicer shall take such action as
the Servicer shall determine reasonably to be in the best interest of the Owner in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.
In the event that any payment due under any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is not postponed pursuant to Section 4.01 and remains
delinquent for a period of ninety (90) days or any other default continues for a period of ninety (90) days beyond the expiration
of any grace or cure period (or such other period as is required by law in the jurisdiction where the related Mortgaged Property
is located) or earlier as determined by the Servicer, the Servicer is granted authority to effect Foreclosure Commencement in
accordance with and subject to Exhibit 10 hereto and Accepted Servicing Practices. In such connection, the Servicer shall,
acting in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, advance on behalf of the Owner such funds as are necessary and proper
in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration or preservation of any Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Agency
Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder with
respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination
by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan or that any proposed Servicing
Advance with respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance shall be evidenced by an Officers’
Certificate of the Servicer, delivered to the Owner, which details the reasons for such determination.

 

The
Servicer acknowledges and agrees that it shall take and initiate any legal actions with respect to any with respect to a Non-Agency
Mortgage Loans and related REO Properties, including, without limitation, any foreclosure actions, acceptance of deeds in lieu
of foreclosure, and any collection actions with respect to such Non-Agency Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties on behalf
of the Owner, but only in the name of the Servicer or its nominee and without reference to the Owner. Except as otherwise required
by law or with the consent of the Owner, under no circumstances shall any such action be taken in the name of, or with any reference
to, the Owner. The Servicer shall provide prior written notice to the Owner, if the Servicer is required by applicable law to
take any legal actions with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties in the name of, or with reference
to, the Owner.

                                         of Mortgage Loan Payments; Payment Clearing Account.

 

Continuously
from the related Inbound Transfer Date until the principal and interest on all Mortgage Loans are paid in full (unless otherwise
provided herein), the Servicer shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans
when the same shall become due and payable and shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating Escrow Payments, to the
extent applicable, and all other charges that will become due and payable with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans and each
related Mortgaged Property, to the end that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges
as and when they become due and payable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage
Loans, the Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether
under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note, PMI Policy or otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a taking
or condemnation) if in its reasonable judgment it believes that it will be unable to enforce the provision of the Mortgage or
other instrument pursuant to which payment is required. Further, the Servicer shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating
annual ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, flood insurance premiums, fire and hazard insurance premiums, mortgage insurance
premiums, and all other charges that, as provided in the Mortgage, will become due and payable to the end that the installments
payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.

 

The
Servicer shall establish and maintain a Payment Clearing Account into which it shall deposit on a daily basis all payments received
in respect of mortgage loans serviced by the Servicer (whether or not serviced pursuant to this Agreement). Not later than the
second Business Day following the receipt of a payment in respect of a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement, the
Servicer shall withdraw the amount of such payment from the Payment Clearing Account and shall immediately deposit (1) in the
Custodial Account, the portion of such payment required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 4.04, and (2) in the
Escrow Account, the portion of such payment required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 4.06.

The
Servicer shall establish one or more Custodial Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts titled in the name of
 “PNMAC Loan Svc LLC ITF [description of applicable owners or investors]” or titled in another reasonable manner indicating
that such account is held in a custodial capacity. Each Custodial Account shall be established with a Qualified Depository acceptable
to the Owner as a Special Deposit Account. Any funds deposited in the Custodial Account shall at all times be fully insured to
the full extent permitted by the FDIC and any amounts therein may be invested in Eligible Investments. The creation of any Custodial
Account shall be evidenced by a certification in the form of Exhibit 2 hereto, in the case of an account established with
the Servicer (provided the Servicer qualifies as a Qualified Depository). A copy of such certification or letter agreement shall
be furnished to the Owner upon request. The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds in the Custodial Account separate and
apart from the Servicer’s own funds and general assets.

 

    28

     

    

 

With
respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account and retain therein the following
collections received by the Servicer, together with any payments made by the Servicer subsequent to the Inbound Transfer Date
pursuant to this Agreement:

 

(i)               
all payments on account of principal on such Mortgage Loans, including all Principal Prepayments;

 

(ii)             
all payments on account of interest on the related Mortgage adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate;

 

(iii)           
all related Liquidation Proceeds and any amount received with respect to the related REO Property;

 

(iv)            
all related Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 4.10 (other than proceeds
to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or released to the
related Mortgagor in accordance with Section 4.14), and Section 4.11;

 

(v)              
all Condemnation Proceeds affecting any related Mortgaged Property that are not applied to the restoration or repair of the related
Mortgaged Property or released to the related Mortgagor in accordance with Section 4.14;

 

(vi)            
any amount required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.15 or 4.19;

 

(vii)          
any Prepayment Penalties received with respect to any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan; and

 

(viii)         
any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.11 in connection with the deductible clause
in any blanket hazard insurance policy. Such deposit shall be made from Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor.

 

The
foregoing requirements for deposit into the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Ancillary Income and Prepayment Penalties need not be deposited by the Servicer into
the Custodial Account. Any interest paid by the depository institution on funds deposited in the Custodial Account and relating
to any Distressed Whole Loan shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer may retain any such interest.

                                         Withdrawals From Custodial Account.

 

Subject
to Section 5.01, the Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Custodial Account for the following purposes:

 

(i)              
to make payments to the Owner (or as otherwise directed by the Owner in writing) in the amounts and in the manner provided in
Section 5.01;

 

    29

     

    

 

(ii)             
 to fund any Liquidity Reserve Account or any Litigation Reserve Account as and to the extent required by Section 4.17;

 

(iii)            
following the liquidation of a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, to reimburse itself for (a) any unpaid Servicing Advances to the
extent recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or other amounts received with respect to the related Non-Agency
Mortgage Loan plus (b) related unreimbursed Nonrecoverable Advances made by the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement;

 

(iv)            
to invest funds in Eligible Investments in accordance with Section 4.09;

 

(v)             
to withdraw funds deposited in the Custodial Account in error;

 

(vi)

such interest to be withdrawn monthly not later than each Remittance Date); and

 

(vii)           
to clear and terminate the Custodial Account upon the termination of the Servicing Agreement.

 

The
Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying
any withdrawal from the Custodial Account pursuant to subclause (iii) above.

                               4.06	Establishment

The
Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts titled in the
name of “PNMAC Loan Svc LLC ttee and/or bailee for [description of applicable owners or investors]” or titled in another
reasonable manner indicating that such account is held in a custodial capacity. Each Escrow Account shall be established with
a Qualified Depository as a Special Deposit Account. Funds deposited in the Escrow Accounts may be drawn on by the Servicer in
accordance with Section 4.07. The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a certification in the form of Exhibit
4 hereto, in the case of an account established with the Servicer (provided the Servicer qualifies as a Qualified Depository).
A copy of such certification shall be furnished to the Owner on or prior to the execution of this Agreement. The Servicer shall
segregate and hold all funds in any Escrow Account separate and apart from the Servicer’s own funds and general assets.

 

With
respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts and retain therein the
following collections received by the Servicer:

 

(i)              
all related Escrow Payments collected on account of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment
of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement; and

 

(ii)             
all amounts representing related Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair
of any related Mortgaged Property.

 

    30

     

    

 

The
Servicer shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, as
set forth in Section 4.07. Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution and
relating to any Distressed Whole Loan shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer. To the extent required by law, the Servicer
shall be responsible to pay from its own funds interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account
may be non interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.

                                         Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

 

With
respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, withdrawals from the Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by the Servicer only:

 

(i)              
to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, mortgage insurance premiums, condominium charges,
flood insurance, fire and hazard insurance, premiums or other items constituting related Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage;

 

(ii)             
to reimburse the Servicer for any Servicing Advance made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.08 with respect to a Non-Agency
Mortgage Loan, but only from amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late payments or collections of Escrow
Payments thereunder;

 

(iii)           
to refund to any related Mortgagor any funds found to be in excess of the amounts required under the terms of the related Mortgage
Loan or applicable federal or state law or judicial or administrative ruling;

 

(iv)            
for transfer to the Custodial Account in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note or this Agreement;

 

(v)              
for application to restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property in accordance with the procedures outlined in Section
4.14;

 

(vi)             to
pay the Servicer, or any Mortgagors to the extent required by law, any interest due on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account
and relating to any Distressed Whole Loan or to pay the Owner, or any Mortgagors to the extent required by law, any interest paid
on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account and relating to any Mortgage Loan other than a Distressed Whole Loan;

 

(vii)

                                         of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.

 

With
respect to each Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is a First Lien Mortgage Loan requiring Escrow Payments to be made by the related
Mortgagor, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates
and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of PMI Policy premiums, flood insurance,
and fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including
renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate
for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the related Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which
shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms
of the related Mortgage.

 

To
the extent that any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is a First Lien Mortgage Loan that does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer
shall determine that any such payments are made by the related Mortgagor when due. With respect to each Non-Agency Mortgage Loan
that is a First Lien Mortgage Loan requiring Escrow Payments to be made by the related Mortgagor, subject to Accepted Servicing
Practices, the Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills
irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall
make Servicing Advances from its own funds to effect such payments within the time period required to avoid penalties and interest
and avoid the loss of the related Mortgaged Property by foreclosure from a tax or other lien. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Servicer reasonably determines that such Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, Servicer shall have no obligation
to make such Servicing Advance. Solely with respect to Non-Agency Mortgage Loans that require Escrow Payments, if Servicer fails
to make a Servicing Advance with respect to any payment prior to the date on which late payment penalties or costs related to
protecting the lien accrue, the Servicer shall pay any such penalties or costs which accrued.

                                         of Accounts.

 

The
Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account, the Escrow Account, any Liquidity Reserve Account or any Litigation Reserve Account
to a different Qualified Depository from time to time. Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining consent of the Owner, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Servicer shall notify the Owner in writing of any such transfer fifteen (15) Business
Days prior to such transfer.

 

Amounts
on deposit in the Custodial Account, the Escrow Account, any Liquidity Reserve Account or any Litigation Reserve Account may at
the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments. Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than one day
prior to the Remittance Date in each month; provided, however, that if such Eligible Investment is an obligation of a Qualified
Depository (other than the Servicer) that maintains the Custodial Account, the Escrow Account, any Liquidity Reserve Account or
any Litigation Reserve Account, then such Eligible Investment may mature on the related Remittance Date. Any such Eligible Investment
shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Owner. All income on or gain realized from any such
Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer. Any losses incurred
in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, the Escrow Account, any Liquidity Reserve Account
or any Litigation Reserve Account, by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized with no right to reimbursement.

                                         of Hazard Insurance.

 

The
Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is a First Lien Mortgage Loan, hazard insurance (with
extended coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located) such that all buildings upon the related
Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer acceptable under the Fannie Mae Guides against loss by fire,
hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are required to be insured pursuant to the Fannie Mae Guides, in an amount
which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii)
the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan or (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall
be sufficient to prevent the related Mortgagor or the loss payee from becoming a co-insurer (or, in the case of any related REO Property,
the fair market value of such REO Property).

 

With
respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, if required by the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or Flood Disaster Prevention
Act of 1973, as amended, each such Mortgage Loan is, and shall continue to be, covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally acceptable insurance carrier acceptable
under the Fannie Mae Guides in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (i) the aggregate unpaid principal balance
of such Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a related REO Property, the fair market value of such REO Property), (ii)
maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or Flood Disaster Prevention Act
of 1973, as amended (regardless of whether the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program),
or (iii) the full replacement value of the improvements which are part of such Mortgaged Property. If a related Mortgaged Property
is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount
required by the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or Flood Disaster Prevention Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall
notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if such Mortgagor fails to obtain
the required flood insurance coverage within forty-five (45) days after such notification, the Servicer shall immediately force
place the required flood insurance on such Mortgagor’s behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Servicer shall have no liability
to Owner or any third party for any penalties or fines imposed based on Servicer’s failure to timely notify the Director
of FEMA and the flood insurance provider related to a servicing transfer if Servicer is not provided with flood insurance information;
provided that, the Servicer shall have promptly provided Owner with notice of such missing flood insurance information. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Servicer shall maintain a blanket insurance policy in sufficient amounts to cover any uninsured loss due to
any gap in Mortgagor-provided coverage.

 

If
a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is a First Lien Mortgage Loan is secured by a unit in a condominium project, the Servicer shall
verify that the coverage required of the homeowners’ association, including hazard, flood, liability, and fidelity coverage,
is being maintained in accordance with then current Fannie Mae requirements, and secure from the homeowners’ association
its agreement to notify the Servicer promptly of any change in the insurance coverage or of any condemnation or casualty loss
that may have a material effect on the value of the related Mortgaged Property as security.

 

    33

     

    

 

The
Servicer shall cause to be maintained on each Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan such other or additional
insurance as may be required pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require
such additional insurance, or pursuant to the requirements of any private mortgage guaranty insurer, or as may be required to
conform with Accepted Servicing Practices.

 

In
the event that the Owner or the Servicer shall determine that the Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan should
be insured against loss or damage by hazards and risks not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by the Mortgagor
pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, the Servicer shall in accordance with the Fannie Mae Guides make commercially reasonable
efforts to communicate and consult with the Mortgagor with respect to the need for such insurance and bring to the Mortgagor’s
attention the desirability of protection of the Mortgaged Property.

 

All
policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer and its successors and assigns as a mortgagee and loss payee and shall be
endorsed with non contributory standard or New York mortgagee clauses which shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior
written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage.

 

In
all such cases, the Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance
carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies
unless such companies currently reflect a General Policy Rating of A:VI or better under Best’s Key Rating Guides, are acceptable
under the Fannie Mae Guides and are licensed to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located. The
Servicer shall determine that such policies provide sufficient risk coverage and amounts as required pursuant to the Fannie Mae
Guides, that they insure the property owner, and that they properly describe the property address. The Servicer shall furnish
to the Mortgagor a formal notice of expiration of any such insurance in sufficient time for the Mortgagor to arrange for renewal
coverage by the expiration date; provided, however, that in the event that no such notice is furnished by the Servicer,
the Servicer shall ensure that replacement insurance policies are in place in the required coverages and the Servicer shall be
solely liable for any losses in the event coverage is not provided.

 

Pursuant
to Section 4.04, any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be deposited in the
Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property, or property acquired in liquidation
of the Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the Mortgagor, in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures
as specified in Section 4.14) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
4.05.

                                         of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy.

 

In
the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy insuring against losses arising from flood, fire and hazards
covered under extended coverage on all of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in
an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 4.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section
4.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 4.10. Any amounts collected
by the Servicer under any such policy relating to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject
to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05. Such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case, in the event that there
shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property a policy complying with Section 4.10, and there shall
have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account at the time
of such loss the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause, such amount to be deposited
from the Servicer’s funds, without reimbursement therefor. The Servicer may seek reimbursement from the Owner for the costs
and premiums associated with obtaining and maintaining any such blanket policy.

                                         of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.

 

The
Servicer shall maintain with responsible companies that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae, at its own expense, a blanket
Fidelity Bond and an Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy, with broad coverage on all officers, employees or other persons acting
in any capacity requiring such persons to handle funds, money, documents or papers relating to the Mortgage Loans (“Servicer
Employees”). Any such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s
Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and
omissions and negligent acts of such Servicer Employees. Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy also shall
protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any insurance policies required pursuant
to this agreement and the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness
secured thereby. No provision of this Section 4.12 requiring such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy
shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. Any such Fidelity Bond
and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall comply with the applicable requirements from time to time of Fannie Mae. Upon
request, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Owner a certified true copy of such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions
Insurance Policy and shall obtain a statement from the surety and insurer that such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance
Policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Owner.

 

		Section
                               4.13	Inspections.

 

The
Servicer shall order an inspection of the Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan when such Mortgage Loan becomes
45 days delinquent and every 30 days thereafter so long as such Mortgage Loan remains delinquent to assure itself that the value
of the Mortgaged Property is being preserved, provided that the Servicer shall be required to take such action only if
it determines that the proceeds to the Owner (after giving effect to the recovery of the Servicer’s out-of-pocket
expenses) from payment on, or disposition of, the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property would be increased as a result of
the taking of such action. The Servicer shall document on its servicing system each such inspection. The costs of such inspections
shall be treated as Servicing Advances for which the Servicer shall be entitled to full reimbursement for in accordance with Section
4.05(iv).

                                         of Mortgaged Property.

 

With
respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Owner prior to releasing any Insurance
Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such
release is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the terms of this Agreement. At a minimum, the Servicer shall comply
with the following conditions in connection with any such release of such Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

 

(i)              
the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion in all material respects of repairs and issuance
of any required approvals with respect thereto;

 

(ii)             
the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to
requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens;

 

(iii)            
the Servicer shall verify that the Mortgage Loan is not in default; and

 

(iv)            
pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account.

 

If
the Owner is named as an additional loss payee, the Servicer is hereby empowered to endorse any loss draft issued in respect of
such a claim in the name of the Owner.

 

		Section
                               4.15	Title,
                                         Management and Disposition of REO Property.

 

In
the event that title to any Mortgaged Property securing a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu
of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Owner or its designee, which may include Servicer
on behalf of the Owner, or in the event the Servicer is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state
where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state
by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person(s) as shall be consistent with
an Opinion of Counsel obtained by Servicer from an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property
is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Owner shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being
held as nominee for the Owner. Where title is acquired by the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Owner shall pay
to the Servicer a Deed in Lieu Fee.

 

    36

     

    

 

Upon
approval by Owner, the Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property related to a Non-Agency Mortgage
Loan for the Owner either for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale or its rental. The Servicer, either itself or through
an agent selected by the Servicer, shall manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as such REO Property is managed. The Servicer shall
attempt to sell or rent the same on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Owner in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicer shall provide the Owner on a monthly basis with a report on the status
of each REO Property related to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan.

 

The
Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property related to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan fire and hazard insurance with extended
coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property,
liability insurance and, to the extent required and available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or Flood Disaster
Prevention Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in the amount required in Section 4.10 hereof, provided that
the Servicer shall be required to maintain such insurance only if it determines that the proceeds to the Owner (after giving effect
to the recovery of the Servicer’s out-of-pocket expenses) from payment on, or disposition of, the related REO Property
would be increased as a result of the maintenance of such insurance. Such costs to maintain appropriate insurance coverage shall
be treated as Servicing Advances for which the Servicer shall be entitled to full reimbursement in accordance with Section
4.05(iv). In addition, for the sale of each REO Property related to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, Owner shall pay to Servicer
the Liquidation Fee.

 

The
disposition of each REO Property related to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price, and
upon such terms and conditions, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the Owner in accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices. The proceeds of sale of such REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement but not later than the second Business Day following receipt thereof. As soon as practical thereafter, the expenses
of such sale shall be paid and the Servicer shall reimburse itself for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and unpaid
Servicing Fees made pursuant to this Section.

 

With
respect to each REO Property related to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected
and received in connection with the operation of the REO Property in the Custodial Account. The Servicer shall cause to be deposited
on a daily basis in each Custodial Account all revenues received by Servicer (such revenues being those received by Servicer within
two Business Days prior to actual deposit into the Escrow Account) with respect to the conservation and disposition of the related
REO Property. Any advances made to maintain appropriate insurance coverage shall be treated as Servicing Advances for which the
Servicer shall be entitled to full reimbursement in accordance with Section 4.05(iv).

 

With
respect to all REO Properties managed by the Servicer that are subject to rental agreements, the Servicer shall be entitled to
collect on a monthly basis any applicable REO Property Rental Fees, REO Property Management Fees and related fees as set forth
on Exhibit 9, net of Owner’s monthly cost to directly employ and compensate any personnel that help facilitate the
Servicer’s management of such REO Properties.

 

    37

     

    

 

 

The Servicer shall furnish
to the Owner on a monthly basis the Servicer’s standard REO report on REO Property then managed by the Servicer with respect
to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans.

 

		Section 4.16	Costs
and Expenses.

 

With respect to the Non-Agency
Mortgage Loans, Owner will be responsible for all losses including but not limited to unrecoverable interest, “out-of-pocket”
costs and expenses from either the Mortgagor or Owner that are normal and customary that occur as the result of normal business
activity associated with owning the loans.

 

		Section 4.17	Liquidity
and Litigation Reserves.

 

(a)              
Liquidity Reserve. The Servicer, in its discretion, may establish a liquidity reserve (the “Liquidity
Reserve”) from which to fund Servicing Advances (including litigation costs and expenses (including attorneys’
fees)), P&I Advances and Interest Shortfall with respect to the Mortgage Loans. If the Servicer elects to establish a Liquidity
Reserve it shall establish a Liquidity Reserve Account at a Qualified Depository. The Liquidity Reserve Account shall be held in
trust for the benefit of the Owner and shall be established and maintained for the sole purpose of holding and distributing the
Liquidity Reserve funds. The Servicer may fund the Liquidity Reserve with such portion of distributions on the Mortgage Loans (but
such portion shall nonetheless be deemed to have been distributed to Owner) as it deems appropriate, in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion, or otherwise request Owner to fund such Liquidity Reserve, in which case Owner shall fund such Liquidity Reserve as
so requested. At the termination of this Agreement, all remaining funds held in the Liquidity Reserve shall be distributed to the
Owner. Amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments, shall not be used to pay
costs or expenses other than Servicing Advances (including litigation costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees)), P&I
Advances and Interest Shortfall, and shall be used to pay such amounts only in any month in which the distributions on the Mortgage
Loans received during that month are insufficient to provide sufficient cash to pay all such amounts due and payable during that
month. No funds from any other source (other than interest or earnings on the funds held in the Liquidity Reserve Account) shall
be commingled in the Liquidity Reserve Account. Amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account (including interest and earnings
thereon) shall be used and may be withdrawn and disbursed only in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. The Servicer
shall be authorized and directed to withdraw funds from the Liquidity Reserve Account only to make disbursements in accordance
with this Agreement and not for any other purpose. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.17(a) to the contrary, it
is expressly understood that the Servicer’s failure to establish or require the Owner to establish or fund a Liquidity Reserve
shall not preclude the Servicer from seeking reimbursement from the Owner for Servicing Advances (including litigation costs and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees)), P&I Advances and Interest Shortfall, all of which remain the obligations of the
Owner.

 

    38

     

    

 

(b)               Litigation
Reserve. Without prejudice to its rights under Section 4.17(a), the Servicer, in its discretion, may establish a
litigation reserve (the “Litigation Reserve”) from which to fund litigation costs and expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) that constitute Servicing Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans. If the Servicer elects to
establish a Litigation Reserve it shall establish a Litigation Reserve Account at a Qualified Depository. The Litigation
Reserve Account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Owner and shall be established and maintained for the sole
purpose of holding and distributing the Litigation Reserve funds. The Servicer may fund the Litigation Reserve with such
portion of distributions on the Mortgage Loans (but such portion shall nonetheless be deemed to have been distributed to
Owner) as it deems appropriate, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, or otherwise request Owner to fund such
Litigation Reserve, in which case Owner shall fund such Liquidity Reserve as so requested. At the termination of this
Agreement, all remaining funds held in the Litigation Reserve shall be distributed to the Owner. Amounts on deposit in the
Litigation Reserve Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments, shall not be used to pay costs or expenses other than
litigation costs and expenses that constitute Servicing Advances, and shall be used to pay such litigation costs and expenses
only in any month in which distributions on the Mortgage Loans received during that month are insufficient to provide
sufficient cash to pay all Servicing Advances due and payable (without prepayment) during that month with respect to the
Mortgage Loans. No funds from any other source (other than interest or earnings on the funds held in the Litigation Reserve
Account) shall be commingled in the Litigation Reserve Account. Amounts on deposit in the Litigation Reserve Account
(including interest and earnings thereon) shall be used and may be withdrawn and disbursed only in accordance with the
provisions of this paragraph. The Servicer shall be authorized and directed to withdraw funds from the Litigation Reserve
Account only to make disbursements in accordance with this Agreement and not for any other purpose.

 

(c)              
For the avoidance of doubt, references under this Section 4.17 to “Mortgage Loans” shall be deemed
to include both Agency Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that to the extent there is any conflict
between the actions permitted to be taken by the Servicer under this Section 4.17 and the actions permitted to be taken
by the Servicer pursuant to the requirements of the applicable Guide, the requirements of the applicable Guide shall control.

 

		Section 4.18	Transfers
of Mortgaged Properties.

 

The Servicer shall enforce
any “due-on-sale” provision contained in any Mortgage or Mortgage Note under any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan and deny
assumption by the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be sold whether by absolute conveyance
or by contract of sale, and whether or not the related Mortgagor remains liable on such Mortgage and Mortgage Note. When the related
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance, exercise
its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause applicable thereto; provided,
however, that the Servicer shall not exercise such rights if prohibited by law from doing so.

 

    39

     

    

 

If the Servicer
reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, the Servicer, shall,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter into (i) an assumption and modification agreement with the Person to whom
such property has been conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the related Mortgage Note and the
original Mortgagor remains liable thereon or (ii) in the event the Servicer is unable under applicable law to require that
the original Mortgagor remain liable under the Mortgage Note and the Servicer has the prior consent of the primary mortgage
guarantee insurer, a substitution of liability agreement with the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the
original Mortgagor is released from liability and the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor and
becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. If an assumption fee is collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption
agreement, such fee will be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such
assumption, neither the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the term of the Mortgage Loan nor the
outstanding principal amount of the Mortgage Loan shall be changed. Where an assumption is allowed pursuant to this Section
4.18, the Servicer, with the prior written consent of the insurer under the PMI Policy or LPMI Policy, if any, is
authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been
conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is
substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the related Mortgage Note. Any such substitution of liability agreement
shall be in lieu of an assumption agreement. The Servicer shall notify the Owner that any such substitution of liability or
assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Owner, or its designee, the original of any such substitution of
liability or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be
considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part
thereof.

 

To the extent that any
Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is assumable, the Servicer shall inquire diligently into the creditworthiness of the proposed transferee,
and shall follow Accepted Servicing Practices and the underwriting practices and procedures of prudent mortgage lenders in the
respective states where the related Mortgaged Properties are located including but not limited to Servicer conducting a review
of the credit and financial capacity of the individual receiving the property, and may approve the assumption if it believes the
recipient is capable of assuming the mortgage obligations. If the credit of the proposed transferee does not satisfy the relevant
underwriting criteria and the transfer of ownership actually occurs, the Servicer diligently shall, to the extent permitted by
the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and by applicable law, accelerate the maturity of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loan.

 

The Servicer shall be
required to take any action otherwise required by this Section 4.18 only if it determines that the proceeds to the
Owner (after giving effect to the recovery of the Servicer’s out-of-pocket expenses) from payment on, or disposition
of the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property would be increased as a result of the taking of such action.

 

		Section 4.19	Satisfaction
of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files.

 

Upon the payment in full
of any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Servicer shall notify the Owner in the Monthly Remittance Advice as provided in Section 5.02,
and may request the release of any Mortgage Loan Documents from the Owner in accordance with this Section 4.19. The Servicer
shall obtain discharge of the related Mortgage Loan as of record within any related time limit required by applicable law (unless
prevented from complying as a result of the failure of the local recording office to comply with its obligations on a timely basis).

 

In connection with
any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance with respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall be
entitled to a reconveyance fee. Such reconveyance fee shall only be reimbursable to the Servicer by the Owner to the extent
the reconveyance fee is uncollectible from the related Mortgagor based on the terms of the security instrument or in the
Servicer’s reasonable opinion that such fee is not allowable by statute.

 

    40

     

    

 

Upon receipt of such
request, the Owner or its designee shall within five (5) Business Days release or cause to be released the related Mortgage Loan
Documents to Servicer and Servicer shall prepare and process any satisfaction or release. If the Owner or its designee or the Custodian
does not release the related Mortgage Loan Documents to Servicer within five (5) Business Days of receipt of request to do so,
Servicer may retain a third party to complete the reconveyance and charge the Owner the actual cost of services provided by such
third party. Except as set forth in this paragraph, Servicer shall have no liability for third party delays that may result in
assessed penalties.

 

If the Servicer satisfies
or releases a Mortgage securing a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan without first having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured
by the Mortgage (or such lesser amount in connection with a discounted payoff accepted by the Servicer with respect to a defaulted
Mortgage Loan) or should the Servicer otherwise prejudice any rights the Owner may have under the mortgage instruments, the Servicer
shall deposit the shortfall amount of the paid indebtedness in the Custodial Account (unless such shortfall is $500 or less, in
which case no deposit shall be required) within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such demand by the Owner.

 

The Servicer shall cause
the Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy required under Section 4.12 to insure the Servicer against any
loss it may sustain with respect to any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

 

		Section 4.20	Notification
of Adjustments.

 

With respect to each
Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is an Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the
related Interest Rate Adjustment Date in compliance with the requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage and Mortgage
Note. If, pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Note, another Index is selected for determining the Mortgage Interest Rate
because the original Index is no longer available, the same Index will be used with respect to each Mortgage Note which requires
a new Index to be selected provided that such selection does not conflict with the terms of the related Mortgage Note. The Servicer
shall execute and deliver any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note
and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate and the Monthly Payment adjustments. The Servicer shall promptly deliver to the
Owner such notifications and any additional applicable data regarding such adjustments and the methods used to calculate and implement
such adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the Owner that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate
or a Monthly Payment pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage related to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer shall immediately deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss caused the Owner
thereby without reimbursement therefor.

 

    41

     

    

 

		Section 4.21	Recordation
                                         of Assignments of Mortgage.

 

Except in connection
with Accepted Servicing Practices for defaulted Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall not be responsible for the preparation or recording
of the Assignments of Mortgage relating to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans to the Owner, or any other party; provided, however,
that in the event the Servicer agrees (which agreement shall be in Servicer’s sole discretion) to record any mortgage assignment,
any expense, including the fees of third party service providers, incurred by the Servicer in connection with the preparation and
recordation of Assignments of Mortgage shall be reimbursable by the Owner, or, if not reimbursed by the Owner, advanced or paid
as a Servicing Advance.

 

		Section 4.22	[Reserved].

 

		Section 4.23	Credit
Reporting.

 

With respect to the Non-Agency
Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations,
accurate and complete information (e.g. favorable and unfavorable) on the Mortgagor credit files to Equifax, Experian and Trans
Union Credit Information Company (or their respective successors) on a monthly basis and in accordance with applicable federal,
state and local laws.

 

		Section 4.24	Superior
Liens.

 

With respect to the Non-Agency
Mortgage Loans, if the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations
secured by the superior lien, or has declared or intends to declare a default under the superior mortgage or the promissory note
secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the related Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer
shall take whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Owner, and/or to preserve the security of the related
Mortgage Loan, subject to any requirements applicable to real estate mortgage investment conduits pursuant to the Code. The Servicer
shall make a Servicing Advance of the funds necessary to cure such default or reinstate such superior lien if the Servicer determines
that such Servicing Advance is in the best interests of the Owner and would be in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.
The Servicer shall not make such a Servicing Advance except to the extent that it determines that such advance would not be a Nonrecoverable
Advance from Liquidation Proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall thereafter take such action as is necessary
to recover the amount so advanced.

 

If a Non-Agency Mortgage
Loan is identified on the Notice of Inbound Transfer as a Second Lien Mortgage Loan, then the Servicer may consent to the refinancing
of the prior senior lien on the related Mortgaged Property, provided that the following requirements are met:

 

1.       the
resulting CLTV of such Second Lien is no higher than its CLTV prior to such refinancing; and

 

2.       the
interest rate, or, in the case of an adjustable-rate existing senior lien, the maximum interest rate, for the loan evidencing
the refinanced senior lien is no more than 2.0% (or such higher rate that the Servicer determines to be in the Owner’s
best interest) higher than the interest rate or the maximum interest rate, as the case may be, on the loan evidencing the
existing senior lien immediately prior to the date of such refinancing; and

 

3.       the
loan evidencing the refinanced senior lien is not subject to the possibility of negative amortization.

                                         and Flood Service Contracts.

 

The Servicer, at the
Owner’s expense, shall cause each Non-Agency Mortgage Loan that is a First Lien Mortgage Loan and is transferred to the Servicer
for servicing to be covered (to the extent not already covered) by a Tax Service Contract and/or Flood Service Contract, by (a)
a Tax Service Contract and/or (b) a Flood Zone Service Contract. If any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is missing a required Tax Service
Contract or if any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is missing a required Flood Zone Service Contract at the time of the Inbound Transfer
Date, Servicer shall place such Tax Service Contract or Flood Zone Service Contract, as applicable, and shall be entitled to the
fee associated with acquiring such contracts as set forth in Exhibit 9.

 

		Section 4.27	Maintenance
of PMI Policies and LPMI Policies; Collections Thereunder.

 

The Servicer shall maintain
in full force and effect, a PMI Policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, with respect to each Non-Agency Mortgage Loan for which
such coverage is required, provided that the Servicer’s obligations to pay premiums in respect of any such Policy
shall terminate if the Servicer determines that the related insurer is unwilling or unable to make all payments due under such
policy. Such coverage shall be maintained until the LTV Ratio or CLTV, as applicable, of the related Non-Agency Mortgage Loan is
reduced to that amount for which Fannie Mae would no longer require such insurance. The Servicer will not cancel or refuse to renew
any PMI Policy in effect on the related Inbound Transfer Date that is required to be kept in force under this Agreement with respect
to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan unless a replacement PMI Policy or LPMI Policy for such cancelled or non-renewed policy is obtained
from and maintained with a Qualified Insurer. The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in non-coverage under any
applicable PMI Policy or LPMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder.
In connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section 4.18
with respect to a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related PMI Policy or LPMI
Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such policy and shall take all
actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under the PMI Policy or LPMI Policy.
If such PMI Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement
PMI Policy as provided above.

 

In connection with
its activities as servicer with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on
behalf of itself, and the Owner, claims to the insurer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy in a timely fashion in accordance
with the terms of such policies and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any
PMI Policy or LPMI Policy respecting a defaulted Non-Agency Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section 4.04, any amounts
collected by the Servicer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy shall be deposited in the related Custodial Account, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05.

 

    43

     

    

 

		Section 4.28	Reliability
of Information/Exceptional Expenses.

 

The Servicer may rely
on all data and materials relating to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans supplied to it by the Owner or the Owner’s designee(s)
and the authenticity and accuracy of such data and materials, including any signatures contained therein. The Servicer shall not
be obligated to conduct an independent investigation of any data materials or audit of any data, materials or Mortgage File, and
may rely on the authenticity and accuracy of such data and materials as provided, including any signatures contained therein and
shall not be held accountable for data integrity, missing information or missing documents that prevent the boarding of a Non-Agency
Mortgage Loan to the Servicer’s mortgage loan administration system. The Servicer shall deliver notification to the Owner
of any material data deficiencies discovered by the Servicer. If such error was identified prior to the Inbound Transfer Date,
the Owner shall have the ability to correct such errors or provide missing data at no additional cost to Servicer. Should the Owner
decline to provide such data corrections or provide such missing data, Servicer shall be entitled to charge the Owner a manual
data backfill fee as set forth on Exhibit 9. If such error was identified after the Inbound Transfer Date and such error
was not the result of Servicer’s negligence, the Servicer shall provide the Owner with a written cost estimate to correct
such errors, and upon the Owner’s approval, which approval should not be unreasonably withheld, the Owner shall reimburse
the Servicer for all documented costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer, including but not limited to, costs and expenses resulting
from the Owner’s actions, instructions or any failure by the Owner to provide the Servicer complete, accurate and timely
Mortgage Loan information.

 

		Section 4.29	Escrow
Obligations.

 

In connection with impounded
Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, the Owner shall (i) cause all taxes and assessments with respect to which the related tax bill is due
within thirty (30) days following the related Inbound Transfer Date to be paid prior to such Inbound Transfer Date, and (b) cause
all hazard, flood, earthquake, PMI Policy and other insurance premiums that are due on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day following
such Inbound Transfer Date to be paid on or prior to such Inbound Transfer Date. The Owner shall be responsible for any losses
including but not limited to tax penalties (including any loss of discount for which any related Mortgagor or any third party for
the benefit of the related Mortgagor has a legal claim) for the current tax due period or for any tax period that ends no more
than twelve (12) months earlier than the date of the last paid installment of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loan, as well as for its
advances to pay the delinquent taxes themselves in connection with any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan for which the Owner failed to pay
taxes as required by this Section 4.29 as the result of an action or inaction of a previous servicer.

 

    44

     

    

 

		Section 4.30	No Obligation to Advance Delinquent
Payments.

 

The Servicer shall have
no obligation to advance amounts constituting delinquent principal and interest payments on any Non-Agency Mortgage Loan.

 

		Section 4.31	MERS
Transfers.

 

The Servicer shall comply
in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans
that are MERS Mortgage Loans for as long as such Non-Agency Mortgage Loans are registered with MERS.

 

To the extent the Owner
requests the Servicer to register or transfer a Non-Agency Mortgage Loan with Mortgage Electronic Registration System, Inc., the
Owner shall promptly transfer or cause to be transferred to Servicer the required mortgage loan information. For such services,
the Owner agrees to pay the Servicer the fee set forth on Exhibit 9 upon the boarding or release of such Non-Agency Mortgage
Loan on the Servicer’s mortgage loan administration system.

		Section
                               5.01	Remittances.

 

On each Remittance Date,
the Servicer shall remit by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Owner (or as otherwise directed in writing by the
Owner) (i) with respect to the Agency Mortgage Loans, subject to the requirements of the applicable Guide, all amounts on deposit
in the custodial accounts maintained with respect to the Agency Mortgage Loans (net of amounts required to remain on deposit therein
or paid to or for the benefit of the related Agency pursuant to the applicable Guide) and (ii) with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage
Loans, all amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account related to the Due Period (net of charges against or withdrawals from the
Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05). The Servicer shall remit to the Owner (or as otherwise directed in writing
by the Owner) all Principal Prepayments with respect to the Non-Agency Mortgage Loans, in full or in part, on the Remittance Date
pursuant to Section 4.05.

 

With respect to any remittance

on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the day such payment was due and ending with the

SERVICING COMPENSATION

 

		Section
                               7.01	Servicing
                                         Compensation.

 

As consideration for
servicing the Mortgage Loans, the Owner shall pay the Servicer the applicable Servicing Fee and Other Fees the Servicer is entitled
to each month. The obligation of the Owner to pay the Servicing Fee and Other Fees with regard to the Mortgage Loans shall be irrespective
of Monthly Payments collected by the Servicer on the Mortgage Loans (but this shall not be construed to limit the effect of any
provision hereof, including Exhibit 9, for the calculation of any fee by reference to one or more specified amounts collected
on or in respect of the Mortgage Loans). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer shall not be
entitled to collect more than one of any of the following Other Fees within any eighteen (18) month period: Liquidation Fee, Reperformance
Fee and Modification Fee; provided, however, that in the event the Servicer would otherwise be entitled to collect more than one
of such Other Fees during any eighteen (18) month period, the Servicer shall be entitled to collect the highest of such Other Fees,
net of any other such Other Fees paid during the applicable eighteen (18) month period.

 

The Servicer shall deliver
to the Owner on the tenth (10th) calendar day of each month or, if the 10th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business
Day, an invoice setting forth the Servicing Fees and Other Fees, including accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees and Other Fees, with
respect to the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Servicer during the preceding calendar month, and the Owner shall pay such invoice
via wire transfer (in accordance with written instructions to be provided by the Servicer) no later than the last day of the calendar
month in which such invoice was delivered. With respect to amounts due to the Servicer that remain unpaid after the Remittance
Date pursuant to this Section, interest shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as of the date of each
change, plus one percentage point, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall
accrue from and including the day following the Business Day on which such payment was due to and including the Business Day when
such payment is made and shall be payable on the date when such payment is so made. The Servicer shall be entitled to deduct such
unpaid amounts due to Servicer on the Remittance Date following the Remittance Date that such amounts were due if Owner has not
already made payment.

 

Additional servicing
compensation in the form of Ancillary Income shall be retained by the Servicer.

 

The Servicer shall be
required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement thereof except as specifically provided for herein.

 

Notwithstanding
anything set forth in this section related to Ancillary Income, the Servicer shall not collect from the Mortgagor, pass
through as an advance or as a liquidation expense any charges other than bona fide fees, which fees must be in compliance
with local law. Servicer cannot add on a processing, or review fee or any additional fee, mark up or otherwise directly make
a profit on or from services or activities rendered by a third party or affiliate (examples include but not limited to:
letters and notices, force placed insurance, BPOs, appraisals, inspections, property preservation costs). The Servicer may
collect any third party fees which are charged in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. In no event shall Servicer
retain the Prepayment Penalties.

 

    52

     

    

 

In the event of a dispute
arising from any act or omission by the Servicer or the Owner hereunder during the course of this Agreement, the Servicer and the
Owner shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other in good faith to resolve such dispute within a time period that
is reasonable under the circumstances surrounding the dispute. Except in the case of a monetary error, the Owner and the Servicer
shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other in good faith to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of a formal
notice from either party. In the case of a monetary error, the party holding the amounts due the other party shall use reasonable
efforts to submit the amount in error within ten (10) Business Days following the discovery of the error. With respect to amounts
due a party after the tenth (10th) Business Day following the discovery of the error, interest shall be accrue on such late payment
at an annual rate equal to the federal funds rate as is publicly announced from time to time, plus three hundred basis points (3.00%),
but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall accrue from and including the
day following the Business Day on which such payment was due to and including the Business Day when such late payment is made and
shall be payable on the date when such late payment is so made.

 

Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, upon the written request (a “Fee Negotiation Request”) of the Owner or the
Servicer following a determination by the Owner or the Servicer that the rates of compensation payable to the Servicer hereunder
differ materially from market rates of compensation for services comparable to those provided hereunder, which request includes
a proposal for revised rates of compensation hereunder, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to amend the provisions
of this Agreement relating to the compensation of the Servicer in order to cause such compensation to be materially consistent
with market rates of compensation for services comparable to those provided hereunder (a “Fee Amendment”); provided,
however, that no such request shall be made until the second anniversary of the effective date of this Agreement, after which time
each party may make such request (i) once with respect to fees to be paid during the remainder of the Initial Term, which request
shall be made prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, and (ii) once with respect to fees to be paid during any Automatic Renewal
Term, which request shall be made at least 210 days prior to the start of such Automatic Renewal Term. If the parties are unable
to reach agreement on the terms of a Fee Amendment within thirty (30) days of the date of delivery of the relevant Fee Negotiation
Request, then the terms of such Fee Amendment shall be determined by final and binding arbitration as described below.

 

All disputes, differences
and controversies of the Owner or the Servicer relating to a Fee Amendment (individually, a “Dispute” and, collectively,
 “Disputes”) shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, subject to the following provisions:

 

(a)               Following
the delivery of a written demand for arbitration by either the Owner or the Servicer, each party shall choose one (1)
arbitrator within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such written demand and the two chosen arbitrators shall mutually,
within ten (10) Business Days after selection select a third (3rd) arbitrator (each, an “Arbitrator” and
together, the “Arbitrators”), each of whom shall be a retired judge selected from a roster of arbitrators
provided by the AAA. If the third (3rd) Arbitrator is not selected within fifteen (15) Business Days after delivery of the
written demand for arbitration (or such other time period as the Owner and the Servicer may agree), the Owner and the
Servicer shall promptly request that the commercial panel of the AAA select an independent Arbitrator meeting such
criteria.

 

    53

     

    

 

(b)              
The rules of arbitration shall be the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association; provided,
however, that notwithstanding any provisions of the Commercial Arbitration Rules to the contrary, unless otherwise mutually
agreed to by the Owner and the Servicer, the sole discovery available to each party shall be its right to conduct up to two (2)
non-expert depositions of no more than three (3) hours of testimony each.

 

(c)              
The Arbitrators shall render a decision by majority decision within three (3) months after the date of appointment,
unless the Owner and the Servicer agree to extend such time. The decision shall be final and binding upon the Owner and the Servicer;
provided, however, that such decision shall not restrict either the Owner or the Servicer from terminating this Agreement
pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(d)              
Each party shall pay its own expenses in connection with the resolution of Disputes, including attorneys’ fees,
unless determined otherwise by the Arbitrator.

 

(e)              
The Owner and the Servicer agree that the existence, conduct and content of any arbitration pursuant to this Section
7.01 shall be kept confidential and neither the Owner nor the Servicer shall disclose to any Person any information about such
arbitration, except in connection with such arbitration or as may be required by law or by any regulatory authority (or any exchange
on which such party’s securities are listed) or for financial reporting purposes in such party’s financial statements.

(a)              
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. This
Agreement shall have an initial term of five years from the date hereof (the “Initial Term”). After the Initial Term,
this Agreement shall be deemed renewed automatically every 18 months for an additional 18 month period (an “Automatic
Renewal Term”) unless the Owner or the Servicer terminates this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or
any Automatic Renewal Term and upon at least 180 days’ prior written notice to the Owner or the Servicer, as applicable.
If (i) either of the Second Amended and Restated Mortgage Banking Services Agreement, between the Servicer and PennyMac Corp.,

(iv)            
in part with respect to an individual Mortgage Loan at the election of the Owner, and subject to the payment of the applicable
Service Release Fee, if (a) such Mortgage Loan becomes delinquent for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days or more (a
 “Delinquent Mortgage Loan”) or (B) the Mortgaged Property securing such Mortgage Loan becomes an REO Property;
provided, however, upon such termination, the Owner shall pay to the Servicer any related unpaid Servicing Fee, any related
outstanding and unreimbursed Servicing Advances and any other outstanding and unreimbursed fees and costs of the Servicer relating
to such Delinquent Mortgage Loan or REO Property for which the Servicer would be entitled to reimbursement from the Owner;

 

    56

     

    

 

(v)              
in whole, at the election of the Owner, if the Servicer in its capacity as “Servicer” under the MSR Recapture Agreement
fails to duly observe or perform in any material respect any covenant or agreement on the part of the Servicer set forth in the
MSR Recapture Agreement that continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which notice of such failure,
requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Servicer by the “MSR Owner” under the MSR Recapture Agreement;
provided, however, that, with respect to any such failure that is susceptible to cure but not curable within such 30-day period,
the Servicer shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure so long as the Servicer has commenced
to cure such failure within the initial 30-day period, the Servicer is diligently pursuing a full cure and the Servicer has provided
evidence of such curability and such diligent pursuit that is reasonably satisfactory to the Owner; and

 

(vi)

or perform in any material respect any covenant or agreement on the part of such “MSR Owner” set forth in the MSR
Recapture Agreement that continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which notice of such failure,
requiring the same to be remedied, is given to such “MSR Owner” by the Servicer in its capacity as “Servicer”
under the MSR Recapture Agreement; provided, however, that, with respect to any such failure that is susceptible to cure but not
curable within such 30-day period, such “MSR Owner” shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect
such cure so long as such “MSR Owner” has commenced to cure such failure within the initial 30-day period, such “MSR
Owner” is diligently pursuing a full cure and such “MSR Owner” has provided evidence of such curability and
such diligent pursuit that is reasonably satisfactory to the Servicer.

 

(b)              
In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement are terminated pursuant to
Section 8.01(a), the Servicer shall discharge such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires
notice or knowledge of such termination until the Outbound Transfer Date, with the same degree of diligence and prudence which
it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice the rights
or financial condition of its successor. Following any such termination, the Owner shall act diligently to appoint a successor
servicer. No termination pursuant to Section 8.01(a) shall become effective until a successor servicer is appointed by
the Owner. No termination pursuant to Section 8.01(a) shall limit any indemnification obligations of the Servicer, which
obligations shall survive such termination.

 

		Section
                               8.02	Outbound
                                         Transfer of Servicing.

 

On
each Outbound Transfer Date or upon any termination of the Servicer as Servicer pursuant to Section 8.01 or resignation
of the Servicer permitted under Section 9.03, the Owner or a successor servicer appointed by the Owner, shall assume all
servicing responsibilities related to, and the Servicer shall cease all servicing responsibilities related to the Mortgage Loans.

Owner
shall provide the Servicer not less than twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of the Outbound Transfer Date. Any Mortgage
Loan service released by the Servicer shall be released on actual balances as of the Outbound Transfer Date. Upon receipt of such
notification from Owner the Servicer shall, at its sole cost and expense, take such steps as may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate and evidence the transfer of the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans to the successor servicer, including but not
limited to the following:

 

(a)              
Notice to Mortgagors. The Servicer shall mail to the Mortgagor of each related Mortgage Loan a letter advising such Mortgagor
of the transfer of the servicing of the related Mortgage Loan to the Owner, or its designee, in accordance with RESPA; provided,
however, such letters shall be in the form mutually agreed upon by the Owner and the Servicer prior to a pending transfer.

 

(b)              
Mortgage Loans in Foreclosure. The servicing with respect to Mortgage Loans in foreclosure on or before the related Outbound
Transfer Date shall not be transferred from the Servicer to the Owner or the successor servicer, as the case may be, and such
Mortgage Loans shall continue to be serviced by the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. However, if the Owner so
elects, the Owner may waive the provisions of this paragraph (a) and accept transfer of servicing of such Mortgage Loans and all
amounts received by the Servicer thereunder.

 

(c)              
Servicing Advances. Subject to the limitations set forth in the definition of “Nonrecoverable Advances”, the
Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for all unreimbursed Servicing Advances and any other advances made by the Servicer
pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the related Outbound Transfer Date, but only if the successor
servicer after the related Outbound Transfer Date is not the Servicer or an Affiliate. In addition, the Owner shall cause the
Servicer to be reimbursed for any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees, unpaid Ancillary Income, Other Fees and for any trailing
expenses representing Servicing Advances for which invoices are received by the Servicer after the Outbound Transfer Date. The
Owner shall cause the Servicer to be reimbursed for such trailing expenses within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such invoice.

 

Anything
to the contrary in this Section 8.02(c) notwithstanding, in the event that Servicer is terminated for cause as a result
of the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Agreement, the payments required in this Section 8.02(c) shall be made
in the amounts and at the times otherwise provided in this Agreement.

in the amount of the net Escrow Payments and suspense balances and all loss draft balances associated with the related Mortgage

by the Owner or its designee. The Servicer shall assume full responsibility for the necessary and appropriate legal application
of such Monthly Payments received by the Servicer after the related Outbound Transfer Date with respect to related Mortgage Loans
then in foreclosure or bankruptcy; provided, however, that for purposes of this Agreement, necessary and appropriate
legal application of such Monthly Payments shall include, but not be limited to, endorsement of a Monthly Payment to the Owner

Servicer’s error, the Servicer shall be liable for the amount of such shortage. In such case, the Servicer shall reimburse
the Owner for the amount of such shortage within thirty (30) days after receipt of written demand therefor from the Owner;

 

    59

error, a check shall be issued to the party shorted by the improper payment application within thirty (30) days after notice thereof
by the other party; and

 

(v)              Any
check issued under the provisions of this Section 8.02(j) shall be accompanied by a statement indicating the Owner Mortgage
Loan identification number and an explanation of the allocation of any such payments.

 

(k)

INDEMNIFICATION
AND ASSIGNMENT AND

OTHER MATTERS RELATED TO SERVICER

 

		Section
                               9.01	Indemnification.

 

(a)              
The Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold the Owner and any successor servicer harmless from any liability, claim, loss or damage
(including, without limitation, any reasonable legal fees, judgments or expenses relating to such liability, claim, loss or damage)
to the Owner directly or indirectly resulting from the Servicer’s failure:

 

(i)               to
observe and perform any or all of the Servicer’s duties, obligations, covenants, agreements, warranties or representations
contained in this Agreement; or

 

(ii)             
to comply with all applicable requirements with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans as set forth herein.

 

The
Servicer immediately shall notify the Owner if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement. For purposes of
this Section 8.01(a), “Owner” shall mean the Person then acting as the Owner under this Agreement and any and
all Persons who previously were “Owners” under this Agreement.

 

(b)              
The Owner agrees to indemnify and hold the Servicer harmless from any liability, claim, loss or damage (including without limitation,
any reasonable legal fees, judgments or expenses relating to such liability, claim, loss or damage) to the Servicer (a) directly
or indirectly resulting from the Owner’s failure to observe and perform any or all of the Owner’s duties, obligations,
covenants, agreements, warranties or representations contained in this Agreement or (b) directly resulting from the Servicer taking
any legal actions with respect to any Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties in the name of the Servicer and without reference to
the Owner, or (c) any act or omission on the part of any prior servicer or (d) directly resulting from any third party act or
omission which occurred in connection with the origination, processing, funding or servicing of a mortgage loan (unless such third
party was hired by Servicer); but, in each case set forth in clauses (a) - (d) above, only to the extent such loss does
not result from the Servicer’s own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or failure of the Servicer (i) to observe
and perform any or all of Servicer’s duties, obligations, covenants, agreements, warranties or representations contained
in this Agreement; or (ii) to comply with all applicable requirements with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans as set
forth herein.

 

(c)              
If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the indemnified party, then the indemnifying
party agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any claims, losses,
damages or liabilities uncured by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
such indemnified party on the one hand and the indemnifying party on the other.

 

(d)              
The indemnifications provided for in this Section shall survive the termination of Servicing Agreement or the termination of any
party to this Agreement.

		Section
                               9.02	Limitation
                                         on Liability of Servicer and Others.

 

Neither
the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Owner
for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in
judgment, provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of
warranties or representations made herein, its own grossly negligent actions, or failure to perform its obligations in compliance
with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely
in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder. The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental
to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense
or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable
in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto. In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement from the Owner of the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

 

		Section
                               9.03	Limitation
                                         on Resignation and Assignment by Servicer.

 

The
Owner has entered into this Agreement with the Servicer and subsequent purchasers will purchase the Mortgage Loans in reliance
upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel,
records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof. The Servicer shall not
assign this Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion hereof (except as provided
in the next succeeding paragraph or Section 6.09) or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property
or assets without the prior written consent of the Owner, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the reasonable discretion
of the Owner.

 

The
Servicer may, without the consent of the Owner, retain third party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration
functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification
and administration, collection services and similar functions; provided, however, that the retention of such contractors
by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement.

 

The
Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Servicer and the
Owner or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot
be cured by the Servicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel to such effect delivered to the Owner which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Owner.
No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations
hereunder in the manner provided in Section 8.02.

 

    62

     

    

 

		Section
                               9.04	Assignment
                                         by Owner.

 

The
Owner shall have the right, to assign, in whole or in part, its interest under this Agreement with respect to some or all of the
Mortgage Loans, and designate any Person to exercise all or any of the rights of the Owner hereunder.

 

		Section
                               9.05	Merger
                                         or Consolidation of the Servicer.

 

The
Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a limited partnership under the laws of the state of
its filing except as permitted herein, and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation
in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement,
or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement. Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged
or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation (including by means of the sale of
all or substantially all of the Servicer’s assets to such Person) to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to the substantially all of the servicing business (whether alone or together with one or more other businesses of
the Servicer), shall be the successor of the Servicer 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
                               9.06	Additional
                                         Activities of the Servicer.

 

Subject
to the restrictions set forth in the MBS Agreement, the Servicer and its Affiliates shall be entitled to engage in any business
or transaction of any kind or nature, including the issuance of mortgage-backed securities and performing monitoring, administrative
or servicing activities of any kind for the benefit of any other Person, including (i) acting as servicer or subservicer of residential
mortgage loans for government-sponsored entities and other government-related entities under arrangements not governed by this
Agreement and (ii) acting as a servicer or subservicer for distressed residential mortgage loans, and otherwise conducting special
servicing activities relating to residential mortgage loans or real estate acquired in respect thereof, for itself or other Persons.
The preceding statement shall not be construed to limit the effect of any express restriction or limitation that may be set forth
in another provision of this Agreement.

No Violation of Organizational Documents or Agreements. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Owner, and
the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement by the Owner, will not violate the Owner’s organizational

The following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement on the part of the Servicer:

 

(i)              
any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Owner (or as otherwise directed by the Owner) any payment required to be made under
the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of five (5) Business Days after the date upon which notice
of such failure is given to the Servicer, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Owner;
or

 

(ii)             
the failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenant or agreement on the part of
the Servicer set forth in this Agreement that continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days (except that such number of
days shall be fifteen (15) in the case of a failure to pay any premium for any insurance policy under this Agreement) after the
date on which notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Servicer by the Owner; provided, however,
that, with respect to any such failure that is susceptible to cure but not curable within such 30-day or 15-day period, the
Servicer shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure so long as the Servicer has commenced to
cure such failure within the initial 30-day period, the Servicer is diligently pursuing a full cure and the Servicer has provided
evidence of such curability and such diligent pursuit that is reasonably satisfactory to the Owner; or

 

(iii)           
any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement that continues unremedied
for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which notice of such breach, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to
the Servicer by the Owner; provided, however, that, with respect to any such breach that is susceptible to cure but not

long as the Servicer has commenced to cure such failure within the initial 30-day period, the Servicer is diligently pursuing
a full cure and the Servicer has provided evidence of such curability and such diligent pursuit that is reasonably satisfactory
to the Owner; or

 

(iv)            
a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver
or liquidator in any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings,
or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall

    68

     

    

 

(v)              the
Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment
of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all or
substantially all of its property; or

 

(vi)            the
Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage
of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend
payment of its obligations; or

 

(vii)          
the Servicer fails to maintain its license to do business or service residential mortgage loans in any jurisdiction where the
Mortgaged Properties are located for more than ninety (90) days after receiving notice from any Person thereof, provided
that such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default if, prior to the expiration of such ninety (90) day period, that
Servicer transfers the affected Mortgaged Properties to one or more Subservicers that satisfy the licensing requirements for the
jurisdiction where such Mortgaged Properties are located;

 

(viii)         
without the prior consent of the Owner or as expressly permitted or required by the other provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer
attempts to assign this Agreement or its right to servicing compensation hereunder, or to delegate its duties hereunder, in each

or

 

(ix)            
the Servicer or any Subservicer fails to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants’ letter or other material
when and as required under Section 4.02, Section 4.03 or Section 4.06 and such failure continues unremedied
for three Business Days after receipt by the Servicer and (if applicable) such Subservicer of written notice of such failure from
the Owner.

 

In
each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, in addition to whatsoever rights the Owner
may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Owner, by notice in writing to
the Servicer, may terminate without compensation all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and
to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof.

 

    69

shall be entitled, in addition to whatever rights the Owner may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relieve
and specific performance, to terminate all the rights and obligations of Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage
Loans and the proceeds thereof, by notice in writing to the Servicer and without payment of any Service Release Fees or other
compensation; provided, however, that the Servicer shall continue to be obligated to pay and entitled to receive all amounts
accrued or owing by or to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Servicing
Fees, Servicing Advances or otherwise and such amounts shall be due and payable at the times and in the manner as if the Servicer
were not terminated. Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement,
whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the successor appointed pursuant to Section
8.02. Upon written request from the Owner, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver any and all documents and other
instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Mortgage Files to the extent initially provided to the Servicer, and
do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether
to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise, at the Servicer’s
sole expense or as otherwise provided under Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Owner and
such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by
the Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

waiver of a default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

RECONSTITUTIONS

 

		Section
                               12.01	Cooperation
                                         of Servicer with a Reconstitution.

 

(a)              
The Servicer and the Owner agree that with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans, on one or more dates (each a “Reconstitution
Date”), at the Owner’s sole option, the Owner may effect a sale (each, a “Reconstitution”)
of some or all of the Mortgage Loans then subject to this Agreement, without recourse, to:

 

(i)              
Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac in one or more Whole Loan Transfers;

 

(ii)             
one or more other third-party purchasers in one or more Whole Loan Transfers;

 

(iii)           
one or more trusts or other entities to be formed as part of one or more Private Securitization Transactions; or

 

(iv)            
one or more trusts or other entities to be formed as part of one or more Public Securitization Transactions.

 

(b)              
With respect to each Whole Loan Transfer, Private Securitization Transaction or Public Securitization Transaction, as the case
may be, entered into by the Owner, the Servicer shall:

 

(i)              
upon request of the Owner, service the Mortgage Loans included in such Reconstitution pursuant to a security servicing agreement
or other agreement;

 

(ii)             
if the Servicer will continue servicing the Mortgage Loans included in the Reconstitution, provide as applicable:

 

(A)            
information pertaining to the Servicer of the type and scope customarily included in offering documents for residential mortgage-backed
securities transactions involving single or multiple loan originators including information regarding financial condition and
mortgage loan delinquency, foreclosure and loss experience or other information as is otherwise reasonably requested by the Owner,
and to deliver to the Owner any non-public, unaudited financial information, in which case the Owner shall bear the cost of having
such information audited by certified public accountants if the Owner desires such an audit, or as is otherwise reasonably requested
by the Owner and which the Servicer is capable of providing without unreasonable effort or expense (collectively “Servicer
Information”), and to indemnify the Owner and its affiliates for material misstatements or omissions contained in the
Servicer Information; provided, however, Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Servicer and its affiliates for material
misstatements or omissions contained in all other information in any offering document, other than Servicer Information; and

 

    71

     

    

 

(B)             
 such opinions of counsel, letters from auditors, and certificates of public officials or officers of Servicer as are reasonably
believed necessary by the trustee, any Rating Agency or the Owner, as the case may be, in connection with such Private Securitization
Transaction or Public Securitization Transaction. The Owner shall pay all third party costs associated with the preparation of
the information described in clause (ii)(A) above and the delivery of any opinions (other than opinions by in-house counsel),
letters or certificates described in this clause (ii)(B).

 

(iii)           
if the Servicer will continue servicing the Mortgage Loans included in the Reconstitution, to negotiate and execute one or more
custodial agreements among the Owner, the Servicer and a third party custodian/trustee which is generally considered to be a prudent
custodian/trustee in the secondary mortgage market designated by the Owner in its sole discretion after consultation with the
Servicer, in either case for the purpose of pooling the Mortgage Loans with other Mortgage Loans for resale or securitization;
and

 

(iv)             if
the Servicer will continue servicing the Mortgage Loans included in the Reconstitution, (1) cooperate fully with the Owner, any
prospective purchaser, any Rating Agency or any party to any agreement to be executed in connection with such Whole Loan Transfer,
Private Securitization Transaction or Public Securitization Transaction, with respect to all reasonable requests and due diligence
procedures, including participating in meetings with Rating Agencies, bond insurers and such other parties as the Owner shall
designate and participating in meetings with prospective purchasers of the Mortgage Loans or interests therein and providing information
reasonably requested by such purchasers; (2) to execute, deliver and perform all reconstitution agreements required by the Owner,
and to use its best reasonable, good faith efforts to facilitate such Whole Loan Transfer, Private Securitization Transaction
or Public Securitization Transaction, as the case may be; (3) (a) to restate the representations and warranties set forth in this
Agreement as of the Reconstitution Date which shall not be materially more onerous than those required under this Agreement or
(b) make the representations and warranties with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans set forth in the related selling/servicing
guide of the master servicer or issuer, as the case may be, or such representations and warranties with respect to the servicing
of the Mortgage Loans as may be required by any Rating Agency or prospective purchaser of the related securities or such Mortgage
Loans, in connection with such Reconstitution; provided, however, that such representations and warranties shall not be
materially more onerous than those required under this Agreement. The Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide
to such master servicer or issuer, as the case may be, and any other participants in such Reconstitution: (i) any and all information
and appropriate verification of information which may be reasonably available to the Servicer or its affiliates, whether through
letters of its auditors and counsel or otherwise, as the Owner or any such other participant shall reasonably request and (ii)
subject to the provisions of this Section 12.01(b), to execute, deliver and satisfy all conditions set forth in any indemnity
agreement required by the Owner or any such participant; provided that the Servicer is given an opportunity to review and reasonably
negotiate in good faith provisions of such indemnity.

 

    72

     

    

 

(c)              
Any execution of a security servicing agreement or reconstitution agreement by the Servicer shall be conditioned on the Servicer
receiving the Servicing Fee or such other servicing fee acceptable to Servicer. All Mortgage Loans not sold or transferred pursuant
to a Whole Loan Transfer, Private Securitization Transaction or Public Securitization Transaction shall be subject to this Agreement
and shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and with respect thereto this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer
is the servicer with respect to a Reconstitution, the Owner agrees that in such Reconstitution any servicing performance termination
triggers shall be substantially similar to those contained in this Agreement or otherwise subject to approval by the Servicer
in its reasonable discretion.

MORTGAGE LOAN DOCUMENTS

 

The following documents
shall constitute the Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan:

 

(a)       the
original Mortgage Note bearing all intervening endorsements, endorsed “Pay to the order of _________, without recourse”
and signed in the name of the last endorsee (the “Last Endorsee”) by an authorized officer. To the extent that
there is no room on the face of the Mortgage Notes for endorsements, the endorsement may be contained on an allonge, if state law
so allows and the Custodian is so advised by the Owner that state law so allows. If the Mortgage Loan was acquired by the Seller
in a merger, the endorsement must be by “[Last Endorsee], successor by merger to [name of predecessor]”. If the Mortgage
Loan was acquired or originated by the Last Endorsee while doing business under another name, the endorsement must be by “[Last
Endorsee], formerly known as [previous name]”; the original of any guarantee executed in connection with the Mortgage Note;

 

(b)       the
original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon. If in connection with any Mortgage Loan, the Owner cannot deliver or cause
to be delivered the original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon because of a delay caused by the public recording office
where such Mortgage has been delivered for recordation or because such Mortgage has been lost or because such public recording
office retains the original recorded Mortgage, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian, a photocopy
of such Mortgage, together with (i) in the case of a delay caused by the public recording office, an Officer’s Certificate
of the Seller (or certified by the title company, escrow agent, or closing attorney) stating that such Mortgage has been dispatched
to the appropriate public recording office for recordation and that the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such Mortgage certified
by such public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original recorded Mortgage will be promptly delivered to
the Custodian upon receipt thereof by the Seller; or (ii) in the case of a Mortgage where a public recording office retains the
original recorded Mortgage or in the case where a Mortgage is lost after recordation in a public recording office, a copy of such
Mortgage certified by such public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original recorded Mortgage; the originals
of all assumption, modification, consolidation or extension agreements, if any, with evidence of recording thereon;
