Where Seller is required by this Agreement to provide any document to Administrative Agent, it shall be provided in writing or printed form or in electronic form, unless otherwise provided in this Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are the result of negotiations between Buyers and Administrative Agent on the one hand and Seller (and Seller’s related parties) on the other, and are the product of all Parties. In the interpretation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, no rule of construction shall apply to disadvantage one Party on the ground that such Party originated, proposed, drafted, presented or was involved in the preparation of any particular provision of this Agreement or of any other Transaction, or of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document itself. Seller and Buyers may be party to other mutual agreements and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to restrict or limit any right or remedy under any such other agreement, and nothing in any such other agreement shall be construed to restrict or limit any right or remedy under this Agreement, except to the extent, if any, specifically provided herein or therein. Except where otherwise expressly stated, Administrative Agent may (i) give or withhold, or give conditionally, approvals and consents, (ii) be satisfied or unsatisfied and (iii) form opinions and make determinations, in each case in Administrative Agent’s reasonable, good faith discretion. A reference to “good faith” means good faith as defined in §1-201(19) of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York. Any requirement of good faith, reasonableness, discretion or judgment by Administrative Agent or any Buyer shall not be construed to require Administrative Agent or such Buyer to request or await receipt of information or documentation not immediately available from or with respect to Seller or any other Person or the Purchased Mortgage Loans themselves. Administrative Agent may waive, relax or strictly enforce any applicable deadline at any time and to such extent as Administrative Agent shall elect, and no waiver or relaxation of any deadline shall be applicable to any other instance or application of that deadline or any other deadline, and no such waiver or relaxation, no matter how often made or given, shall be evidence of or establish a custom or course of dealing different from the express provisions and requirements of this Agreement.

3. Initiation; Confirmations; Termination

(a) Uncommitted Facility; Initiation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the facility provided

under this Agreement is an uncommitted facility, and Buyers (and Administrative Agent) shall have no obligation to enter into any Transactions with respect thereto. Buyers may, in their sole discretion, from time to time as requested by Seller, enter into Transactions, so long as the Aggregate Purchase Price for all Purchased Mortgage Loans acquired by Buyers does not exceed the Facility Amount. Any agreement to enter into a Transaction shall be made in writing or electronically at the initiation of Seller through the MWF Web before the Termination Date. If Seller desires to enter into a Transaction, Seller shall deliver to Administrative Agent no earlier than three (3) Business Days before, and no later than 3:30 p.m., Houston, Texas time, on, the proposed Purchase Date, a request for Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) to purchase an amount of Eligible Mortgage Loans on such Purchase Date. All such purchases shall be on a servicing released basis and shall include the Servicing Rights with respect to such Eligible Mortgage Loan. Such request shall state the Purchase Price and shall include the Confirmation related to the proposed Transaction. Each Confirmation shall include an Asset Schedule listing the Mortgage Loans that Seller proposes to sell to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers), for Administrative Agent to confirm acceptance of the proposed Transaction.

(b) Purchase. Subject to the terms of the Side Letter and satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 3 and in Section 7, on the requested Purchase Date for each Transaction (or, if requested by Seller, on the Business Day immediately before such requested Purchase Date), Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, transfer to Seller — for a newly Originated Eligible Mortgage Loan, by transferring funds to the designated Settlement Agent, and for other Eligible Mortgage Loans, by transferring funds to the prior lender or repurchase agreement counterparty, or to Seller, as applicable — an amount of Buyers’ funds equal to the Purchase Price for purchase of each Eligible Mortgage Loan that is the subject of such Transaction on that Purchase Date, less any amounts to be netted against such Purchase Price in accordance with the Transaction terms and this Agreement. Such transfer of funds to the Settlement Agent to be used to fund the Mortgage Loan, or to the prior lender or repurchase agreement counterparty, or to Seller, as applicable, and if applicable, such permitted netting of amounts for value, for any Transaction will constitute full payment by Buyers of the Purchase Price for such Mortgage Loan. Within five (5) Business Days (twelve (12) calendar days for Wet Funding CEMA Loans) following the Purchase Date, Seller shall (i) take such steps as are necessary and appropriate to effect the transfer to Administrative Agent on the MERS® System of the Purchased Mortgage Loans so purchased, and to cause Administrative Agent to be designated as “Interim Funder” on the MERS® System with respect to each such Purchased Mortgage Loan and (ii) in the case of a Wet Funding, deliver all remaining items of the related Asset File to Custodian. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Administrative Agent and Buyers shall have no obligation to enter into any Transaction on or after the Termination Date. Seller may (i) initially request less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Purchase Price for any one or more Purchased Mortgage Loans, (ii) repay part of the Purchase Price therefor to Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ account) or (iii) both, and may subsequently request (through Administrative Agent) that Buyers fund (or re-fund) the balance of the Purchase Price to Seller, and in either case so long as both (x) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (y) Buyers would be

committed to fund (or re-fund) such balance if it were a new Transaction, Buyers, acting through Administrative Agent, will fund (or re-fund) so much of such balance as Seller shall request.

(c) Confirmations. The Confirmation for each Transaction shall (i) include the Asset Schedule with respect to the Mortgage Loans subject to such Transaction, (ii) identify Administrative Agent and Seller and (iii) set forth (A) the Purchase Date, (B) the Purchase Price, (C) the latest Repurchase Date applicable to such Mortgage Loans, (D) the Pricing Rates applicable to the Transaction and (E) any additional terms or conditions of the Transaction mutually agreeable to Administrative Agent and Seller. In the event of any conflict between the terms of a Confirmation that has been affirmatively accepted by Administrative Agent and this Agreement, such accepted Confirmation shall prevail.

(d) Failed Fundings. Seller agrees to report to Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission or electronic mail by the earlier of (x) one (1) Business Day after the Cash Manager has actual knowledge of such failure and (y) three (3) Business Days after the related Purchase Date, any Mortgage Loans that failed to be funded to the related Mortgagor, otherwise failed to close for any reason or failed to be purchased hereunder. Seller further agrees to (i) return, or cause the Settlement Agent to return, to the Funding Account, for refunding to Administrative Agent for Buyers’ accounts, the portion of the Purchase Price allocable to such Mortgage Loans by the earlier of (x) one (1) Business Day after the Cash Manager has actual knowledge of such failure and (y) three (3) Business Days after the related Purchase Date, and (ii) indemnify Buyers and Administrative Agent for any loss, cost or expense incurred by them as a result of the failure of such Mortgage Loans to close or to be delivered to Administrative Agent.

(e) Accrual and Payment of Price Differential. The Price Differential for each Transaction shall accrue during the period commencing on (and including) the day when the Purchase Price is transferred into the Funding Account (or otherwise paid to Seller) for such Transaction and ending on (but excluding) the day when the Repurchase Price is paid to Administrative Agent. Accrued Price Differential for each Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be due and payable (i) on each Remittance Date, (ii) when any Event of Default occurs and (iii) on each Business Day after any Event of Default occurs and so long as it is continuing, to and excluding the day that the Repurchase Price therefor shall be paid to Administrative Agent.

(f) Repurchase Required. Seller shall repurchase from Administrative Agent Purchased Mortgage Loans conveyed to Administrative Agent and MBS issued in exchange for Pools of Purchased Mortgage Loans, on or before each related scheduled Repurchase Date and may electively sooner repurchase Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS. Each obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan. If such Repurchase Price is paid by Seller on or before termination of this Agreement, shipment of the related Purchased Mortgage Loans to an Approved Takeout Investor or an Agency Custodian pursuant to Section 17 or Administrative Agent’s liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 12, Administrative Agent shall transfer such Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller. Seller is obligated to obtain Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS not shipped to an Approved Takeout Investor or an Agency Custodian from Administrative Agent or its designee on the related Repurchase Date.

(i) Cash Repurchase. On the Repurchase Date of Purchased Mortgage Loans being repurchased for cash (including any Pool of Purchased Mortgage Loans that will be exchanged on an MBS Settlement Date in a “delivery versus cash” or “swap and sell” transaction), termination of the Transaction will be effected by resale to Seller or its designee by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a servicing released basis against (1) Seller’s submission to Administrative Agent of a Completed Repurchase Advice and (2) payment of the Repurchase Price by Seller’s wiring it or causing it to be wired to the Funding Account. After receipt of the payment (for Buyers’ accounts) of the Repurchase Price from Seller, Administrative Agent shall transfer such Purchased Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Loan Documents to Seller or its designee or release all of its interests in the related Pool and deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Seller, its designee or the Agency Custodian for such Pool, as applicable, all Mortgage Loan Documents previously delivered to Administrative Agent and take such steps as are necessary and appropriate to effect the transfer of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to Seller or its designee on the MERS® System, the MERS® eRegistry or both, as applicable. All such transfers from Administrative Agent to Seller or Seller’s designee, including any Transfer of Location or other transfer on the MERS® eRegistry, that result in the Transfer of Control of an eNote, are and shall be without recourse and without (i) any of the liabilities of an indorser under UCC §3-414, by analogy or otherwise, (ii) any of the transfer warranties of UCC §3-417, or (iii) any other warranty, express or implied.

(ii) Pool Securitization and Repurchase of MBS Created from the Pool. On the Repurchase Date for a Pool of Purchased Mortgage Loans that is being securitized in a “delivery versus MBS” or “swap and hold” transaction, termination of the Transaction, and the simultaneous initiation of a new Transaction whose subject will be the MBS created from such Pool, will be effected by Administrative Agent’s delivery of such Pool to the relevant Agency Custodian against delivery to Buyer of the MBS created from such Pool. On the Repurchase Date for such MBS, termination of such new Transaction will be effected by Seller’s wiring the Repurchase Price for such MBS, or causing it to be wired, to the Funding Account and causing the other elements of a Completed Repurchase Advice (those being items (iii) and (iv) in the definition of that term in Section 2(a)) to be delivered to Administrative Agent, whereupon Administrative Agent will transfer the MBS to the relevant Approved Takeout Investor, Seller or its designee, as applicable.

(g) No Obligation to Transfer Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS After Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer any Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS to Seller or any Seller’s designee after the termination of this Agreement or liquidation by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, in each case pursuant to Section 12, except to the extent that the net proceeds of such Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS received by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) exceed Seller’s obligations, liabilities and indebtedness under each of the Transactions and the Transaction Documents, or to the extent required by Bankruptcy Code Section 559 if that is less.

(h) Completed Repurchase Advice. If Administrative Agent receives the Completed Repurchase Advice with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS at or before 3:00 p.m. Houston, Texas time, on any Business Day, then the Repurchase Date for that Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS will be that same day. If Administrative Agent receives the Completed Repurchase Advice with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS after 3:00 p.m. Houston, Texas time, on any Business Day, then the Repurchase Date for that Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS will be the next Business Day. In connection with any repurchase pursuant to a Completed Repurchase Advice, Administrative Agent will debit the Funding Account and, if necessary, the Operating Account for the amount of the Repurchase Price (less any amount of Price Differential to be paid on the next Remittance Date). Without limiting Seller’s obligations hereunder, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, except for repurchases of individual Mortgage Loans or Pools being sold to Approved Takeout Investors, Seller shall not be permitted to repurchase less than all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which may be granted or withheld in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion.

(i) Reliance. With respect to any Transaction, Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to Seller in acting upon, any request or other communication that Administrative Agent reasonably believes to have been given or made by a Person authorized to enter into a Transaction on Seller’s behalf.

(j) Defective Mortgage Loans.

(i) If, after Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) purchases a Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent determines or receives notice (whether from Seller or otherwise) that a Purchased Mortgage Loan is (or has become) a Defective Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Seller, and Seller shall repurchase such Purchased Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price on the Early Repurchase Date (as such term is defined below).

(ii) If Seller becomes obligated to repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3(j)(i), Administrative Agent shall promptly give Seller notice of such repurchase obligation and a calculation of the Repurchase Price therefor. On the same day Seller receives such notice if given at or before 10:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, or on the next Business Day if such notice is given after 10:00 a.m. (such day, the “Early Repurchase Date”), Seller shall repurchase the Defective Mortgage Loan by paying Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ accounts) the Repurchase Price therefor, and shall submit a Completed Repurchase Advice. Administrative Agent is authorized to charge any of Seller’s Accounts for such amount unless the Parties have agreed in writing to a different method of payment and Seller has paid such amount by such agreed method. If Seller’s Accounts do not contain sufficient funds to pay in full the amount due Buyers under this Section 3(j)(ii), or if the amount due is not paid by any applicable alternative method of payment previously agreed to by the Parties, Seller shall promptly deposit funds in the Operating Account sufficient to pay such amount due Buyers and notify Administrative Agent of such deposit. If such Repurchase Price is paid by Seller on or before termination of this Agreement, shipment of the related Purchased Mortgage Loans to an

Approved Takeout Investor or an Agency Custodian pursuant to Section 17 or Section 12, Administrative Agent shall transfer such Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller and deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Seller all documents for the Mortgage Loan previously delivered to Administrative Agent or Custodian and take such steps as are necessary and appropriate to effect the transfer of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to Seller on the MERS® System and, in the case of an eMortgage Loan, on the MERS® eRegistry.

4. Margin Maintenance

(a) Margin Deficit. If at any time the aggregate Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS then subject to Transactions is less than the sum of their Repurchase Prices, a margin deficit (a “Margin Deficit”) will exist. If at any time the Margin Deficit is greater than the Cash Deposit balance by more than [***], Administrative Agent, by notice to Seller (a “Margin Call”), may require Seller to transfer to Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ accounts) (x) cash or (y) if Administrative Agent is willing to accept them in lieu of cash, MBS and/or additional Eligible Mortgage Loans reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (“Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans”) or (z) a combination, to the extent (if any) acceptable to Administrative Agent, of cash and Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans, so that immediately after such transfer(s), the sum of (i) the aggregate of the Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS for all Transactions outstanding at that time, including any such Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans, plus (ii) the then- balance of the Cash Deposit, plus (iii) such cash, if any, so transferred to Administrative Agent, will be at least equal to the aggregate Repurchase Price of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS then subject to Transactions.

(b) Margin Maintenance. If notice of a Margin Call is given at or before 10:00 a.m. Houston, Texas time on a Business Day, Seller shall transfer cash and/or, if acceptable to Administrative Agent, Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans, to Administrative Agent before 5:00 p.m. Houston, Texas time on the date of such notice, and if such notice is given after 10:00 a.m. Houston, Texas time on a Business Day, Seller shall transfer such cash and/or Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans before 9:30 a.m. Houston, Texas time on the Business Day following the date of such notice. All cash required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 4(b) (“Margin Cash”) shall be deposited by Seller into the Operating Account and, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be held by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) in the Operating Account as security for the Seller’s obligations hereunder or, at Administrative Agent’s option, applied by Buyers to reduce pro rata the Repurchase Prices of all Purchased Mortgage Loans that are then subject to outstanding Transactions. If Margin Cash delivered to Administrative Agent is so held in the Operating Account, Administrative Agent shall give Seller credit against Price Differential due from Seller for each month that such Margin Cash is so held in an amount equal to (x) a rate per annum equal to (i) the weighted average Pricing Rate applicable to the Purchased Mortgage Loans that are subject to outstanding Transactions during that month minus (ii) the per annum rate applied by Chase for that month to the reserve-adjusted balances of Seller’s deposit accounts with Chase to determine earnings credits applicable to treasury and other services provided by Chase to Seller in that month, times (y) the average

balance of Margin Cash held in the Operating Account in that month. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any such cash, the Cash Deposit or both may be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loans as Administrative Agent shall select, with the amount to be applied to the Repurchase Price of any particular Purchased Mortgage Loan to be determined by Administrative Agent, using such reasonable method of allocation as Administrative Agent shall elect in its sole discretion at the time. Administrative Agent’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to make a Margin Call at any time when the Margin Deficit is greater than the Cash Deposit balance by more than [***], shall not in any way limit or impair its right to make a Margin Call at any other time that such a Margin Deficit exists (or still exists).

(c) Margin Excess. If on any day after Seller has transferred cash or Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4(b), the sum of (i) the cash paid to Administrative Agent, (ii) the balance of the Cash Deposit and (iii) the aggregate of the Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS for all Transactions outstanding at that time, including any such Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans, exceeds the sum of the Repurchase Prices of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS then subject to Transactions by more than [***], then at the request of Seller, Buyers (acting through Administrative Agent) shall return a portion of the cash or Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller so that the remaining sum of (i), (ii) and (iii) does not exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price; provided that the sum of the cash plus the value of Additional MBS/Purchased Mortgage Loans returned shall be strictly limited to an amount, after the return of which, no Margin Deficit greater than an amount equal to the Cash Deposit will exist.

(d) Market Value Determinations. Administrative Agent may determine the Market Values of any or all MBS and Purchased Mortgage Loans with such frequency as Administrative Agent may elect (which, for the avoidance of doubt, can be daily) as follows:

(i) Administrative Agent’s determination of Market Value of Purchased Mortgage Loans and of MBS will be for the limited purposes specified in this Agreement;

(ii) a Market Value of zero will be assigned to any Purchased Mortgage Loan that, at the time of determination, is not an Eligible Mortgage Loan;

(iii) Administrative Agent’s determination of Market Value of Purchased Mortgage Loans will be made using CL’s or its successor in interest’s (or, if Administrative Agent shall have ceased using on a regular basis CL or CL’s successor in interest’s valuation services for any reason, an active secondary market participant’s (which may be a division or an Affiliate of Chase)) customary methods for determining the price of comparable mortgage loans under the market conditions and Seller’s status prevailing at the time of determination, and if (1) any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) Administrative Agent reasonably and in good faith believes that a secondary market Mortgage Loan purchaser would materially discount the likelihood of realization on any of Seller’s Mortgage Loan transfer warranties or (3) the market for comparable Mortgage Loans is illiquid or otherwise disorderly at the time, such determination would not be equivalent to a determination of the fair market value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans made by obtaining competing bids under circumstances where

the bidders have adequate opportunity to perform customary mortgage loan and servicing due diligence and, as applicable in the circumstances, (A) the originator/servicer is not in default, (B) the likelihood of realization on Seller’s transfer warranties is not materially discounted and/or (C) the market for comparable Mortgage Loans is not illiquid or otherwise disorderly; and

(iv) Administrative Agent’s good faith determination of Market Value shall be conclusive on the Parties absent manifest error; provided however that if Seller disputes, in good faith, Administrative Agent’s determination of Market Value, Administrative Agent shall confer with Seller to provide information regarding Administrative Agent’s determination of Market Value; provided further that the forgoing shall not preclude Administrative Agent from issuing a Margin Call pursuant to the terms hereof.

5. Accounts; Income Payments

(a) Accounts. From and after the effective date of this Agreement, Seller agrees to continue to maintain each of the Accounts, which have heretofore been established at Financial Institution; provided that the Income Collection Account will be established if and when required by Administrative Agent for the purposes of Sections 12(b)(iii) and/or 12(b)(iv). Seller’s taxpayer identification number will be designated as the taxpayer identification number for each Account and Seller shall be responsible for reporting and paying taxes on any income earned with respect to the Accounts. Each Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Administrative Agent, and Seller agrees that (i) Seller shall have no right or authority to withdraw or otherwise give any directions with respect to the Accounts or the disposition of any funds held in the Accounts; provided that Seller may cause amounts to be deposited into any Account at any time, and (ii) Financial Institution may comply with instructions originated by Administrative Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Accounts without further consent of Seller. Only employees of Administrative Agent shall be signers with respect to the Accounts. Pursuant to Section 6, Seller has pledged, assigned, transferred and granted a security interest to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) in all Accounts in which Seller has rights or power to transfer rights and all Accounts in which Seller later acquires ownership, other rights or the power to transfer rights. Seller and Administrative Agent hereby agree that Administrative Agent, as agent and representative of Buyers, has “control” of the Accounts within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC and that the Accounts are subject to the provisions of Section 31.

(b) Cash Deposit. From and after the effective date of this Agreement, Seller shall maintain on deposit in the Cash Deposit at all times an amount [***] (the “Required Amount”). If on any Remittance Date, the amount on deposit in the Cash Deposit is greater than the Required Amount, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon Seller’s request such excess will be disbursed to Seller on such Remittance Date after application of the Cash Deposit by Administrative Agent and Buyers to the payment of any amounts due and owing by Seller to Administrative Agent or Buyers on such date. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may apply the amounts on deposit in the Cash Deposit in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(e).

(c) Funding Account. The Funding Account shall be used for fundings of the Purchase Price and the Repurchase Price with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan and MBS in accordance with Section 3. Seller shall cause all amounts to be paid in respect of the Takeout Commitments to be remitted by the Approved Takeout Investors directly to the Funding Account without any requirement for any consent of Seller. On each Repurchase Date that occurs pursuant to Section 3(f) with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS, Administrative Agent will apply the applicable amounts on deposit in the Funding Account to the unpaid Repurchase Price due to Buyers for such Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent will transfer the remaining balance, if any, in the Funding Account to the Operating Account. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may apply the amounts on deposit in the Funding Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(e).

(d) Operating Account.

(i) The Operating Account shall be used for the purposes of (1) Seller’s payment of Price Differential and any other amounts owing to Buyers under this Agreement, the Side Letter or any other Transaction Document, except for amounts required to be paid, and that can be paid, from or to other Accounts pursuant to the Transaction Documents, (2) Seller’s funding of any shortfall between (x) the proceeds of an Eligible Mortgage Loan being purchased by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) that are to be disbursed at its Origination and (y) the Purchase Price to be paid by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) for that Eligible Mortgage Loan, (3) Seller’s payment of any difference between the Repurchase Price and the amount received by Administrative Agent from the applicable Approved Takeout Investor in connection with the repurchase of a Purchased Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3(h), and (4) for any cash payments made by Seller to satisfy Margin Calls pursuant to Section 4(b).

(ii) On or before the seventh (7th) Business Day before each Remittance Date, Administrative Agent will notify Seller in writing of the Price Differential and other amounts due Administrative Agent and Buyers on that Remittance Date. On or before each Remittance Date or, if later, seven (7) Business Days after Seller receives Administrative Agent’s notice provided for in the first sentence of this Section 5(d)(ii), Seller shall deposit into the Operating Account such cash, if any, as shall be required to make the balance in the Operating Account sufficient to pay all amounts due Administrative Agent and Buyers on that Remittance Date. On each Remittance Date, Administrative Agent shall withdraw funds from the Operating Account to effect such payment to the extent of funds then available in the Operating Account. If the funds on deposit in the Operating Account are insufficient to pay the amounts then due Administrative Agent and Buyers in full, Seller shall pay the deficiency amount on the date such payment is due by wire transfer of such amount to the Operating Account, and Administrative Agent shall withdraw the funds so deposited to pay such deficiency to the extent of the funds deposited.

(iii) Funds deposited by Seller in the Operating Account to cover the shortfall, if any, referred to in clause (2) of Section 5(d)(i) will be disbursed by Administrative Agent to

the Settlement Agent, prior lender or repurchase agreement counterparty or Seller, as applicable, along with the Purchase Price of the related Eligible Mortgage Loan being purchased by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) to fund the Origination, transfer or other purchase of such Mortgage Loan as provided in Section 3(b).

(iv) At any time after a Margin Call, if Seller fails to satisfy such Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, Administrative Agent may withdraw funds from the Operating Account to pay such Margin Call and shall apply the funds so withdrawn for that purpose to reduce the Repurchase Prices of Purchased Mortgage Loans then subject to outstanding Transactions as provided in Section 4(b). At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may apply the amounts on deposit in the Operating Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(e).

(v) Unless (1) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (2) any amounts are then owing to Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Indemnified Party under this Agreement or another Transaction Document, on Seller’s request, Administrative Agent will transfer the Operating Account balance to an account designated by Seller.

(vi) Income Collection Account. Pursuant to Section 6, Seller has pledged, assigned and transferred the Income Collection Account to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) and granted Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) a security interest in the Income Collection Account. Income shall be deposited in the Income Collection Account if required by Administrative Agent after and during the continuance of any Event of Default pursuant to Sections 12(b)(iii) and/or 12(b)(iv). No funds other than Income shall be deposited in the Income Collection Account. Where a particular Transaction’s term extends over the date on which Income is paid by the Mortgagor on any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to that Transaction, that Income will be the property of Buyers until Seller has paid the full Repurchase Price in respect of such Transaction to Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ accounts). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and no Margin Deficit then exists, Buyers and Administrative Agent agree that Seller or its designee shall be entitled to receive and retain that Income to the full extent it would have been so entitled if the Purchased Mortgage Loans had not been sold to Buyers; provided that any Income received by Seller while the related Transaction is outstanding shall be deemed to be held by Seller solely in trust for Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) pending the payment of the Repurchase Price in respect of such Transaction and the repurchase of the related Purchased Mortgage Loans. If a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or a Margin Deficit exists that Seller has not satisfied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, as of the date Income is paid on a Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction hereunder, Seller, if directed by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12(b)(iii) and/or Section 12(b)(iv), shall cause such Income to be deposited into the Income Collection Account or to such other account as Administrative Agent may direct.

(e) Application of Funds. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at such times as Administrative Agent may direct in its sole discretion, Administrative Agent shall apply all Income and other amounts on deposit in all or any of the Accounts, other than mortgagors’ actual escrow payments held in any account and required to be used for the payment of Property Charges in respect of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, in the same order and manner as is provided in Section 12(e) for proceeds of dispositions of Purchased Mortgage Loans not repurchased by Seller.

(f) Seller’s Obligations. The provisions of this Section 5 shall not relieve Seller from its obligations to pay the Repurchase Price on the applicable Repurchase Date and to satisfy any other payment obligation of Seller hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

6. Security Interest; Assignment of Takeout Commitments

(a) Security Interest. Although the Parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be absolute sales and purchases and not loans, to secure the payment and performance by Seller of its obligations, liabilities and indebtedness under each such Transaction and Seller’s obligations, liabilities and indebtedness under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, Seller hereby pledges, assigns, transfers and grants to Administrative Agent, as agent and representative of Buyers, a security interest in the Mortgage Assets in which Seller has rights or power to transfer rights and all of the Mortgage Assets in which Seller later acquires ownership, other rights or the power to transfer rights. “Mortgage Assets” means (i) the Purchased Mortgage Loans with respect to all Transactions outstanding from time to time hereunder (including, without limitation, all Servicing Rights with respect thereto), (ii) all Credit Files, Servicing Records, Loan Eligibility Files, Asset Files, Mortgage Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Mortgage Note or eNote (as the case may be) and Mortgage, and all of Seller’s claims, liens, rights, title and interests in and to the Mortgaged Property in each case to the extent related to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (iii) all Liens securing repayment of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (iv) all Income with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (v) the Accounts, together with all interest on the Accounts, all modifications, extensions and increases of the Accounts and all sums now or at any time hereafter on deposit in the Accounts or represented by the Accounts, (vi) the Takeout Commitments and Takeout Agreements to the extent Seller’s rights thereunder specifically relate to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (vii) all Hedging Arrangements to the extent specifically relating to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (viii) the Income Collection Account, together with all interest on the Income Collection Account, all modifications, extensions and increases of the Income Collection Account and all sums now or at any time hereafter on deposit in the Income Collection Account or represented by the Income Collection Account and (ix) all proceeds of the foregoing including, without limitation, to the extent that they are proceeds of the foregoing, all MBS, and the right to have and receive such MBS when issued, that are, in whole or in part, based on, backed by or created from Purchased Mortgage Loans for which the full cash Repurchase Price has not been received by Administrative Agent, irrespective of whether such related Purchased Mortgage Loans have been released from this security interest. Seller hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file such financing statements and amendments relating to the Mortgage Assets as Administrative Agent may deem appropriate. Seller shall pay all fees and expenses associated with perfecting

such Liens including the cost of filing financing statements and amendments under the UCC, registering each Purchased Mortgage Loan with MERS and recording assignments of the Mortgages and registering each related eNote on the MERS® eRegistry and initiating transfers, loan data updates and other actions on the MERS® eRegistry, in each case as and when required by Administrative Agent in its good faith discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon Seller’s payment of the Repurchase Price to Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ accounts), any security interest of Buyers in the related Purchased Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgage Assets shall be released.

(a) If any Change in Requirement of Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Buyer; or

(ii) impose on any Buyer or Administrative Agent any other condition affecting this Agreement or Transactions entered into by Buyers or Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ accounts);

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Buyers or Administrative Agent of making or maintaining any purchase hereunder (or of maintaining its obligation to enter into any Transaction) or to increase the cost or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Buyers or Administrative Agent (whether of Repurchase Price, Price Differential or otherwise), then Seller will pay to Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ and its own accounts) such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyers and Administrative Agent for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Buyer or Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any Change in Requirement of Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Buyer’s capital or on the capital of such Buyer’s holding company as a consequence of this Agreement or the purchases made by such Buyer to a level below that which such Buyer or such Buyer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Requirement of Law (taking into consideration such Buyer’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Buyer in good faith to be material, then from time to time Seller will pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each such Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Buyer or such Buyer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of such Buyer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Buyer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 8(a) or 8(b) shall be delivered to Administrative Agent and Seller and shall be conclusive absent

manifest error. Seller shall pay Administrative Agent, for the account of each such Buyer, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Buyer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 8 shall not constitute a waiver of such Buyer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Seller shall not be required to compensate any Buyer pursuant to this Section 8 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than two hundred seventy (270) days before the date that such Buyer notifies Seller of the Change in Requirement of Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Buyer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Requirement of Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Increased eRisk. If at any time Administrative Agent determines (an “eRisk Determination”) that any Change in Requirement of Law or in the MERS® eRegistry, or other event or circumstance, imposes or increases Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ risk of making or maintaining purchases of eMortgage Loans, or of maintaining their obligations with respect to any eMortgage Loans Transactions, then Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Seller, and (i) Administrative Agent and Seller shall endeavor in good faith to establish alternative terms and conditions to apply to eMortgage Loan Transactions to eliminate or satisfactorily reduce such risk, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to both Administrative Agent and Seller, and to amend this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to implement such changes. If Administrative Agent and Seller fail for any reason to execute such amendments on or before forty-five (45) days after Administrative Agent’s said notice to Seller, Administrative Agent may elect to give notice to Seller that, on or after forty-five (45) days thereafter, new eMortgage Loans will not be Eligible Mortgage Loans.

9. Documents and Records Relating to Purchased Mortgage Loans

(a) Segregation of Documents; Administrative Agent May Engage in Other Transactions. All documents in the possession of Seller relating to Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be segregated from other documents and securities in its possession and shall be identified as being subject to this Agreement. Segregation may be accomplished by appropriate identification on the books and records of the holder, including a financial or securities intermediary or a clearing corporation. All of Seller’s interest in the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including the Servicing Rights) shall pass to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) on the Purchase Date and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Administrative Agent from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise selling, transferring, pledging or hypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans, but no such transaction shall relieve Administrative Agent of its obligations to transfer the Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller if and as required by Section 1, Section 3(f), Section 3(j)(ii), Section 4(c), or Section 22(c) or to credit, pay over or apply Income to the obligations of Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) eClosing Transaction Records and Post-Purchase Support.

(i) The eClosing Transaction Record of each Purchased Mortgage Loan that is an eMortgage Loan shall be stored and maintained by Seller or its Subservicer in a manner that preserves the integrity and reliability of the eClosing Transaction Record for the life of such eMortgage Loan plus a period consistent with applicable Agency Guidelines requirements.

(iii) Seller shall archive all versions of any eClosing System used to create eNotes and originate eMortgage Loans, and retain such versions including screenshots of each stage or version of the eClosing System process.

(iv) Seller shall retain the eClosing Transaction Record of each Purchased Mortgage Loan that is an eMortgage Loan in a manner that will provide Administrative Agent or its designees with ready access to such documents and records promptly following any request by Administrative Agent.

Promptly following any reasonable request by Administrative Agent (and subject to the limitations applicable to onsite visits to Seller’s offices specified in Section 11(d)), Seller will, and will cause each Subservicer (if any) of eMortgage Loans and each eVault Provider (if any), to give Administrative Agent access to (i) each eVault storing the Authoritative Copy of any eNote evidencing a Purchased Mortgage Loan, (ii) all software and systems used for the origination, management or administration of any Purchased Mortgage Loan or any related eClosing Transaction Record,

Credit File or Servicing Record, and access to all media in which any part of such eClosing Transaction Record, Credit File or Servicing Record may be recorded or stored; (iii) Seller’s, or such Subservicer’s or eVault Provider’s, as applicable, know-how, expertise, and relevant data (such as customer lists) regarding any Purchased Mortgage Loan, or the policies, procedures and processes of such Person in originating, maintaining, servicing and otherwise managing eMortgage Loans and eNotes, and (iv) the personnel responsible for such matters.

For the purposes hereof, good standing shall include qualification for any and all required governmental licenses and payment of any and all taxes required, due and payable in the jurisdiction of its organization and in each jurisdiction in which Seller or a Subsidiary transacts business. Seller has no Subsidiaries except those identified by Seller to Administrative Agent in Exhibit E. With respect to Seller and each such Subsidiary, Exhibit E correctly states its name as it appears in its articles of incorporation or formation filed in the jurisdiction of its organization, address, place of organization, each state in which it is qualified as a foreign corporation or entity, and in the case of the Subsidiaries, the percentage ownership (direct or indirect) of Seller in such Subsidiary.

(iv) No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, nor compliance with its terms and conditions, shall result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Liens created pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents) of any nature upon the properties or assets of Seller under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of Seller’s organizational documents, or any mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Seller is now a party or by which it is bound (other than this Agreement).

(v) Performance. Seller does not believe, nor does it have any reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform, and Seller intends to perform, each and every covenant that it is required to perform under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(vi) Ordinary Course Transaction. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of Seller, and neither the sale, transfer, assignment and conveyance of Mortgage Loans to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) nor the pledge, assignment, transfer and granting of a security interest to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) in the Mortgage Assets, by Seller pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the bulk transfer or any similar Requirement of Law in effect in any applicable jurisdiction.

The information, reports, financial statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in writing by or on behalf of Seller to Buyers or Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation or delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or included herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto,

when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All written information furnished after the date hereof by or on behalf of Seller to Buyers or Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will be true, complete and accurate in every material respect, or (in the case of projections) based on reasonable estimates, on the date as of which such information is stated or certified.

All Seller representations and warranties shall survive delivery of the Loan Eligibility Files and the Confirmations, purchase by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) of Purchased Mortgage Loans, transfer of the servicing for the Purchased Mortgage Loans to a successor servicer, delivery of Purchased Mortgage Loans to an Approved Takeout Investor, repurchases of the Purchased Mortgage Loans by Seller and termination of this Agreement. The representations and warranties of Seller in this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Buyers, Administrative Agent and their successors and assigns, notwithstanding any examination by Administrative Agent or any Buyer of any Mortgage Loan Documents, related files or other documents delivered to Administrative Agent.

(d) Available Warehouse Facilities. Seller represents and warrants that as of the end of each calendar quarter Seller has, and will list on Seller’s Compliance Certificate for such quarter, Available Warehouse Facilities from buyers and lenders other than Administrative Agent such that the Available Warehouse Facility under this Agreement constitutes no more than [***] of Seller’s aggregate Available Warehouse Facilities.

(g) Payment of Taxes.

(i) Seller shall pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon Seller, its Subsidiaries, or on their respective income, receipts or properties, before penalties are incurred, that if unpaid will, or would reasonably be expected to, have a Material Adverse Effect; provided that Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to pay taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies for which Seller or its Subsidiaries shall have obtained an adequate bond or adequate insurance or that are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings that are being reasonably and diligently pursued, if adequate book reserves determined in accordance with GAAP are established therefor.

(ii) (A) All payments made by Seller under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto imposed by any Governmental Authority, other than any deduction or withholding required by any Requirement of Law, and excluding taxes imposed on (or measured by) its net income (however denominated) or capital, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes or any other tax imposed on the net income by the United States, a state or a foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which any Buyer is organized or of its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof, excluding taxes imposed as a result of its failure to comply with the requirements of Sections 1471 through 1474 of the IRC and any treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Taxes”), all of which shall be paid by Seller for its own account not later than the date when due. If Seller is required by any Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder, it shall (a) make such deduction or withholding, (b) pay the amount so deducted or withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority not later than the date due, (c) deliver to Administrative Agent, promptly, original tax receipts and other evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of the payment when due of the full amount of such Taxes and (d) pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of such Buyer) such additional amounts as may be necessary so that such Buyer receives, free and clear of all Taxes, a net amount equal to the amount it would have received under this Agreement, as if no such deduction or withholding had been made.

(B) In addition, Seller agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with all applicable Requirements of Law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including mortgage recording taxes, transfer taxes and similar fees) imposed by the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (“Other Taxes”).

(C) Seller agrees to indemnify Buyers and Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including additional amounts with respect thereto), and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 11(g), and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, provided that Administrative Agent or the relevant Buyer(s) shall have provided Seller with evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Seller, of payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be. Buyers shall promptly repay to Seller any refund of any amounts received by Buyers that are attributable to the amounts paid by Seller under this Section 11(g).

(D) Any assignee of a Buyer that is not incorporated or otherwise created under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia (a “Foreign Buyer”) shall provide Seller with properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying that such Foreign Buyer is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party that reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States on or before the date upon which each such Foreign Buyer becomes a purchaser of Mortgage Loans hereunder. Each Foreign Buyer will resubmit the appropriate form on the earliest of (x) the third anniversary of the prior submission or (y) on or before the expiration of thirty (30) days after there is a “change in circumstances” with respect to such Foreign Buyer as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.1441(e)(4)(ii)(D). For any period with respect to which a Foreign Buyer has failed to provide Seller with the appropriate form or other relevant document pursuant to this Section 11(g)(ii) (unless such failure is due to a change in any Requirement of Law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Foreign Buyer shall not be entitled to any “gross-up” of Taxes or indemnification under this Section 11(g)(ii) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that should a Foreign Buyer, that is otherwise exempt from a withholding tax, become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, Seller shall take such steps as such Foreign Buyer shall reasonably request to assist such Foreign Buyer to recover such Taxes.

(E) Without prejudice to the survival or any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 11(g)(ii) shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 11(g)(ii) shall require any Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(F) Each Party acknowledges that it is its intent, for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes only, to treat each purchase transaction hereunder as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans and that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. All Parties agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment unless required by law.

(h) Insurance. Seller shall maintain, at no cost to Buyers or Administrative Agent, (a) blanket fidelity bond coverage, with such companies and in such amounts as to satisfy the

requirements of applicable Agency Guidelines, and shall cause Seller’s policy to be endorsed with the Blanket Bond Required Endorsement, (b) liability insurance and fire and other hazard insurance on its properties, and (c) network security and cyber liability insurance that includes coverage for any and all costs and expenses associated with a data security incident, with responsible insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, in such amounts and against such risks as is customarily carried by similar businesses.

(iii) Together with each delivery of financial statements required in Sections 11(i)(i) and 11(i)(ii), a Compliance Certificate executed by the chief financial officer, chief executive officer or president of Seller, on behalf of Seller;

(ii) If any Default or Event of Default other than those specifically referred to in [***] shall have occurred and be continuing, Seller shall not declare, make or pay, or incur any liability to declare, make or pay, any dividend (excluding stock dividends) or other distribution other than Tax Dividends on or on account of any shares of its stock (or equivalent equity interest) or any redemption or other acquisition of any shares of its stock (or equivalent equity interest) or of any warrants, rights or other options to purchase any shares of its stock (or equivalent equity interest), nor purchase, acquire, redeem or retire any stock (or equivalent equity interest) in itself, whether now or hereafter outstanding, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which Administrative Agent may grant or withhold in its sole discretion; provided, however that, notwithstanding anything in the foregoing, Seller shall be able to make a Tax Dividend to its shareholders required for purpose of meeting such shareholder’s tax liability related to its, his or her ownership of Seller.

(k) Use of Chase’s Name. Except as otherwise agreed, consented to or approved as set forth in other agreements between the parties hereto or as otherwise required by law, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, confine its use of Chase’s logo and the “JPMorgan” and “Chase” names to those uses specifically authorized by Chase in writing; provided that the use of such names in reference to the Transaction Documents and the parties thereto is authorized; provided, further that Seller may disclose to third parties that Administrative Agent is a party to the Transaction Documents.

(n) Defense of Title; Preservation of Mortgage Assets. Seller warrants and will defend the right, title and interest of Buyers and of their agent and representative, Administrative Agent, in and to all Mortgage Assets against all adverse claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever (other than any claim or demand related to any act or omission of any Buyer, which claim or demand does not arise out of or relate to any breach or potential breach of a representation or warranty by Seller under this Agreement). Seller shall do all things necessary to preserve the Mortgage Assets so that such Mortgage Assets remain subject to a first priority perfected Lien hereunder, excluding Hedging Arrangements that cover both Purchased Mortgage Loans and Mortgage Loans that are subject to another Available Warehouse Facility, as to which Seller will do all things necessary to keep Administrative Agent’s Lien pari passu with the Lien of the counterparty to such other Available Warehouse Facility. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller will comply in all material respects with all Requirements of Law applicable to Seller or relating to the Mortgage Assets and cause the Mortgage Assets to comply in all material respects with all applicable Requirements of Law.

waive any term or condition of, or settle or compromise any claim in respect of, any item of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or any related rights.

(q) Loan Determined to be Defaulted or Defective. Unless the subject Purchased Mortgage Loan has already been repurchased by Seller, upon the Cash Manager’s obtaining actual knowledge that any Purchased Mortgage Loan is a Defaulted Loan or a Defective Mortgage Loan, Seller shall promptly give notice of such discovery to Administrative Agent.

Seller agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such additional assignments, acknowledgments, agreements and instruments as are reasonably required by Administrative Agent to carry into effect the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or to perfect the interests of Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) in the Mortgage Assets.

(s) Hedging Arrangements. Seller shall hedge its interest rate risk with respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans in accordance with its hedging policies.

(t) [Reserved].

(u) [Reserved].

(v) Underwriting Guidelines. Seller will underwrite Eligible Mortgage Loans other than Jumbo Loans in compliance with Agency Guidelines. Seller will underwrite Jumbo Loans in compliance with its Non-Agency Jumbo Guidelines. If Seller changes its Non-Agency Jumbo Guidelines from time to time to increase the maximum LTV/CLTV, increase the maximum debt-to-income ratio or reduce the minimum FICO Score for Jumbo Loans of a particular Loan Purpose and Product or Property type, to be greater than the maximum LTV/CLTV factor, greater than the maximum debt-to-income ratio factor or less than the minimum FICO Score factor that are specified in Schedule III, Seller will notify Administrative Agent of such change and provide a copy of its revised Non-Agency Jumbo Guidelines, and Administrative Agent will review such change and notify Seller on or before ten (10) Business Days after receipt whether Administrative Agent approves or disapproves such change. If Administrative Agent approves such change, the parties agree to amend this Agreement to adjust Schedule III to match such changed factor in the revised Non-Agency Jumbo Guidelines (and to substitute such revised Non-Agency Jumbo Guidelines for Schedule III). If Administrative Agent does not approve such change, Schedule III attached hereto (or to the most recent previous substitution therefor, if any) shall remain and continue in effect for purposes of this Agreement.

(w) UCC. Seller will not change its name, identity, corporate structure or location (within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the UCC) unless it shall have (i) given Administrative Agent at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice thereof and (ii) delivered to

Administrative Agent all financing statements, amendments, instruments and other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with such change. Seller will keep its principal place of business and chief executive office at the location specified in Section 15 as the address specified in Section 15 may be updated from time to time to another United States address.

(x) Takeout Commitments. Except to the extent superseded by this Agreement, Seller covenants that it shall continue to perform in all material respects all of its duties and obligations to the Approved Takeout Investor under any applicable Takeout Commitment and Takeout Agreement and otherwise with respect to which a Jumbo Loan or MBS is specifically allocated as if such Jumbo Loan were still owned, or such MBS were owned, by Seller (instead of by Administrative Agent, as agent and representative of Buyers) and to be sold directly by Seller to the Approved Takeout Investor pursuant to such Takeout Commitment on the date provided therein without the intervening ownership of Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) pursuant to this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall timely assemble all records and documents concerning each such Jumbo Loan that (i) are in its possession or control, (ii) have not been delivered to Administrative Agent or Custodian and (iii) are required under any applicable Takeout Commitment (except that photocopies instead of originals shall be used for those documents of which originals were provided to Custodian in the Asset File or to Administrative Agent in the Loan Eligibility File) and all other documents and information in its possession or control that have not been delivered to Administrative Agent or Custodian and that may have been required or requested by the Approved Takeout Investor, and Seller shall make all representations and warranties required to be made to the Approved Takeout Investor under the applicable Takeout Commitment and Takeout Agreement.

(iii) Maintenance of Liquidity. Seller shall have unencumbered Liquidity on the last day of each month in an amount that equals or exceeds [***].

(iv) Net Income or (Loss). If as of the last day of any calendar month in a fiscal quarter of Seller, either (x) the Adjusted Tangible Net Worth of Seller and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is less than [***] or (y) the Liquidity of Seller and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is less than [***], then and in either such case, the net income before taxes of Seller and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such quarter shall equal or exceed [***].

(z) Government Regulation. Seller shall not (1) be or become subject at any time to any Requirement of Law (including the U.S. Office of Foreign Asset Control list) that prohibits or limits Buyers or Administrative Agent from making any advance or extension of credit to Seller or from otherwise conducting business with Seller, or (2) fail to provide documentary and other evidence of Seller’s identity as may be requested by Administrative Agent at any time to enable Administrative Agent to verify Seller’s identity or to comply with any applicable Requirement of Law, including Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318.

(aa) Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery. Seller agrees to maintain, to cause each Subservicer (if any) of its eMortgage Loans and Seller’s eVault Provider, to maintain, at all times (i) a disaster recovery program, (ii) a business continuity plan, and (iii) an incident response plan (collectively, the “Continuity, Recovery and Incident Response Programs”), each in scope and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. Seller, at its sole cost, shall test the Continuity, Recovery and Incident Response Programs on an annual basis. If the results of any such testing identify any material compliance or other issues with respect to any of Seller’s, a Subservicer’s or an eVault Provider’s Continuity, Recovery and Incident Response Programs, Seller shall notify Administrative Agent and promptly correct any such issue to Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction.

12. Events of Default; Remedies.

(a) Each of the following events shall, upon its occurrence and during its continuance, be an “Event of Default”:

(i) Payment of Repurchase Price, Price Differential or Margin Call. Seller fails to (1) remit any payment of (x) Repurchase Price other than for a Defective Mortgage Loan, or (y) Price Differential when due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or (2) satisfy any Margin Call in the manner provided and within the time specified in Section 4 (Margin Maintenance); provided that in the event of an administrative error with respect to such payment on any Business Day (which administrative error is promptly documented to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent), Seller shall have until the close of business on the next Business Day to complete such payment, so long as Seller is solvent.

(ii) Other Payments. Seller fails to remit any payment due to Buyers or Administrative Agent pursuant to, and in breach of, the terms hereof other than those described in Section 12(a)(i) (Payment of Repurchase Price, Price Differential or Margin Call) or Section 12(a)(xv) (Defective Mortgage Loans), on or before the [***] after a Notice Officer’s receipt of notice or knowledge thereof.

(iii) Representation or Warranty. (A) Any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (x) is untrue, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect (each such representation or warranty, a “Materially False Representation”) on or as of the date made and, (y) only as to Materially False Representations not made with intent to mislead or deceive Administrative Agent or Buyers, such Materially

False Representation is not cured by correcting its untruth, inaccuracy or incompleteness within [***] after a Notice Officer has actual knowledge that such Materially False Representation was untrue, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect on or as of the date made; provided that any representation or warranty in Section 10(a)(i) (Representations and Warranties Concerning Purchased Mortgage Loans) or Section 10(b) (Representations as to Additional Mortgage Loans) or on Exhibit B (each, a “Loan Level Representation”) shall be considered solely for the purpose of determining (i) whether a Mortgage Loan is an Eligible Mortgage Loan or a Defective Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Market Value of such Mortgage Loan, including for purposes of Seller’s repurchase obligations and Margin Calls, and regardless of whether the Loan Level Representation was when made, or has become, a Materially False Representation, it will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default — although such Materially False Representation may cause each affected Purchased Mortgage Loan to cease to be an Eligible Mortgage Loan or to have a lower Market Value, and Administrative Agent may require that Seller repurchase it from Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) or that Seller satisfy a Margin Call as provided in this Agreement — unless both (1) such Loan Level Representation shall be determined by Administrative Agent in its good faith discretion to have been materially false or misleading on a regular basis and (2) when such Loan Level Representation was made, a Notice Officer had actual knowledge that it was being made and that it was untrue, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, in which event such Materially False Representation will constitute an Event of Default; or

(B) any fraudulent information contained in any written statement, report, financial statement or certificate made or delivered by Seller (either before or after the date hereof) to any Buyer or Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document if (i) it was untrue, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect on or as of the date made and (ii) a Notice Officer knew it to be fraudulent as of the date when made or deemed made.

(d) Upon the exercise by Administrative Agent of its option under Section 12(b)(i), without prior notice to Seller, Administrative Agent may (A) immediately sell, on a servicing released or servicing retained basis as Administrative Agent deems desirable, in a recognized market at such price or prices as Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion deem satisfactory, any or all Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS subject to such Transactions and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Seller to Buyers, Administrative Agent or any other Indemnified Party under the Transaction Documents or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans and MBS in an amount equal to the Market Value therefor on such date against the aggregate

unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Seller to Buyers, Administrative Agent or any other Indemnified Party under the Transaction Documents.

(e) The proceeds of any disposition or the amount of any credit described above shall be applied first, to the costs and expenses incurred by Buyers and Administrative Agent in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default (including legal fees, consulting fees, accounting fees, file transfer and inventory fees, costs and expenses incurred in respect of a transfer of the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and costs and expenses incurred in connection with a disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans); second, to costs of cover and/or related hedging transactions; third, to the aggregate and accrued Price Differential owed hereunder, fourth, to the remaining aggregate Repurchase Prices owed hereunder; fifth, to any other accrued and unpaid obligations of Seller hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and sixth, any remaining proceeds shall be paid to Seller or other Person legally entitled thereto.

(f) The Parties acknowledge and agree that:

(i) Buyers and Administrative Agent have no desire or intention to hold any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS for investment under any circumstances, and if (x) Seller fails to repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS when required to do so by this Agreement, whether before or after its termination, or (y) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (z) Buyers and Administrative Agent have not made an affirmative election under the circumstances then prevailing to retain such Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS pursuant to clause (B) of Section 12(d), Administrative Agent will sell it (i) if practicable and if the sale can be made without Administrative Agent’s having to undertake representation, warranty or other obligations that Administrative Agent, acting in its sole discretion, considers unacceptable, to the relevant Approved Takeout Investor (if any), or (ii) by private sale to another Person in the secondary mortgage or MBS market, as applicable, undertaking only such representation, warranty and other obligations, if any, to such Person as Administrative Agent, acting in its sole discretion, considers acceptable, at the earliest reasonable opportunity and for such price as Administrative Agent, acting in its sole discretion, determines to be the optimal price available at the time of such sale; provided that if at any time Administrative Agent determines that the secondary market for residential mortgage loans or the market for MBS, as applicable, is illiquid, disrupted or dysfunctional, Administrative Agent may elect to postpone sales of Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS for so long as Administrative Agent determines that any such market conditions persist, and no such delay shall be construed to constitute or require a change in the classification of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS in Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ hands from “held for sale” to “held for investment”, and in all cases, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, their Market Value shall be the only “reasonable determinant of value” of Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS for purposes of Section 562 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(ii) in the absence (whether because of market disruptions or for any other reason whatsoever) of a generally recognized source for secondary mortgage or MBS market prices of, or for bid or offer quotations for, any one or more Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS

at any time, whether before or after any termination of this Agreement, Administrative Agent may determine the Market Values of such Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS using such means, methods, averaging, weighting, calculations and assumptions as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be appropriate and consistent with CL’s or its successor in interest’s (or, if Administrative Agent shall have ceased using on a regular basis CL or CL’s successor in interest’s valuation services for any reason, an active secondary market participant’s (which may be a division or an Affiliate of Chase)) valuation methods, and Administrative Agent’s determination shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error, for all purposes, it being the Parties’ specific intention to include therein the purposes of Sections 559 and 562 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(iii) except to the extent, if any, contrary to market practice, in determining values of Purchased Mortgage Loans, Administrative Agent shall include all related accrued Income available either to be transferred to a secondary market purchaser or to be retained by Buyers to reduce their Repurchase Prices; and

(iv) in determining the Market Value of any Purchased Mortgage Loans, it is reasonable for Administrative Agent to use and rely on the information provided by Seller on the daily data tape pursuant to Section 11(i)(vii) without being required to check or verify the accuracy or completeness of such information.

(g) The Parties further recognize that if, under the circumstances described in clause (x) or clause (y) of Section 12(f)(i), Administrative Agent has elected to sell Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS, the market for Mortgage Loans or MBS may then be insufficiently liquid or dysfunctional in other respects, they agree that Administrative Agent may elect the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS, and nothing contained herein shall obligate Administrative Agent (i) to liquidate any Purchased Mortgage Loan or MBS immediately after Seller’s failure to repurchase it when required by this Agreement, the occurrence of an Event of Default or any termination of this Agreement, or (ii) to liquidate all Purchased Mortgage Loans or MBS in the same manner or on the same day, and no exercise by Administrative Agent of any right or remedy shall constitute a waiver of any other right or remedy. Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and Buyers for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Buyers in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions reasonably incurred) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(h) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall be liable to Buyers and Administrative Agent for interest on any amounts owing by Seller hereunder, from the date Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by or on behalf of Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Buyer’s and Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by Seller to Buyers or Administrative Agent under

this Section 12(h) shall be at a rate equal to the greater of (x) the Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction and (y) the Pricing Rate plus [***].

(i) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Buyers and Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to their rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to them under any other agreement entered into in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, under applicable law or in equity.

(j) Seller hereby acknowledges, admits and agrees that Seller’s obligations under this Agreement are recourse obligations of Seller.

13. Servicing Rights Are Owned by Buyers; Interim Servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans

(a) As a condition of purchasing an Eligible Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent hereby engages Seller to interim service such Purchased Mortgage Loan as agent for Administrative Agent and Buyers for a term of thirty (30) days during the Post-Origination Period (the “Interim Servicing Term”), that is renewable as provided in Section 13(a)(vi), on the following terms and conditions:

(i) Seller shall interim service and temporarily administer the Purchased Mortgage Loan on behalf of Administrative Agent and Buyers in accordance with prudent mortgage loan servicing standards and procedures generally accepted in the mortgage banking industry and in accordance with all applicable requirements of the Agencies, Requirements of Law, the provisions of any applicable servicing agreement, and the requirements of any applicable Takeout Agreement and the Approved Takeout Investor, so that the eligibility of the Purchased Mortgage Loan for purchase under such Takeout Agreement is not voided or reduced by such interim servicing and temporary administration.

(ii) If any Eligible Mortgage Loan that is proposed to be sold on a Purchase Date is serviced by a servicer other than Seller or any of its Affiliates (a “Subservicer”), or if the interim servicing of any Purchased Mortgage Loan is to be transferred to a Subservicer, Seller shall provide a copy of the related subservicing agreement and a Subservicer Instruction Letter executed by such Subservicer (collectively, the “Subservicing Agreement”) to Administrative Agent before such Purchase Date or interim servicing transfer date, as applicable. Each such Subservicing Agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent. In addition, Seller shall have obtained the prior written consent of Administrative Agent for such Subservicer to subservice the Purchased Mortgage Loans, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed. In no event shall Seller’s use of a Subservicer relieve Seller of its obligations hereunder, and Seller shall remain liable under this Agreement as if Seller were interim servicing such Purchased Mortgage Loans directly. Any termination of Seller as interim servicer shall automatically terminate each Subservicer. If any Agency revokes any Subservicer’s authority to service Mortgage Loans, Administrative Agent may direct Seller to terminate such Subservicer as a subservicer of any or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Seller shall cause the termination of such Subservicer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such direction from Administrative Agent.

(iii) Seller acknowledges that it has no right, title or interest in the Servicing Rights for any Purchased Mortgage Loan, and agrees that Seller may not transfer or assign any rights to master service, service, interim service, subservice or administer any Purchased Mortgage Loan before Seller’s repurchase thereof from Buyers (by payment to Administrative Agent of the Repurchase Price on the applicable Repurchase Date) other than an interim servicing transfer to a Subservicer approved by Administrative Agent pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement approved by Administrative Agent as described above in this Section 13.

(iv) Seller shall immediately advise Administrative Agent of the then-current physical location of, and shall yield possession of and deliver to Administrative Agent or such other Person, if any, as Administrative Agent shall designate in a written notice to Seller, all physical and contractual servicing materials, files and records for the servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, including any original Mortgage Notes, that are in its possession or control, together with all of the related Servicing Records that are in its possession or control and are not already in Administrative Agent’s possession, upon the earliest of (w) the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default hereunder unless Administrative Agent gives written notice to Seller that the Interim Servicing Term is renewed and specifying the renewal term, (x) the termination of Seller as interim servicer by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13(a)(v), (y) the expiration (and non-renewal) of the Interim Servicing Term, or (z) the transfer of servicing to any entity approved by Administrative Agent and the assumption thereof by such entity. Seller’s transfer of the Servicing Records and the physical and such contractual servicing materials, files and records under this Section 13(a)(iv) shall be in accordance with customary standards in the industry and such transfer shall include the transfer of the gross amount of all escrows held for the related mortgagors (without reduction for unreimbursed advances or “negative escrows”).

(v) Administrative Agent shall have the right to terminate Seller as interim servicer of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, which right shall be exercisable at any time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, upon written notice.

(vi) The Interim Servicing Term will be deemed renewed on each Remittance Date succeeding the related Purchase Date unless (i) Seller has sooner been terminated as interim servicer of all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred on or before such Remittance Date, in which latter event the Interim Servicing Term will expire on such Remittance Date unless Administrative Agent gives written notice to Seller that the Interim Servicing Term is renewed and specifying the renewal term.

(vii) The Interim Servicing Term will automatically terminate and Seller shall have no further obligation to interim service such Purchased Mortgage Loan as agent for Administrative Agent and Buyers or to make the delivery of documents required under this Section 13, upon receipt by Administrative Agent of the Repurchase Price therefor.

(viii) Administrative Agent and Buyers have no obligation to pay Seller a fee for the interim servicing obligations Seller agrees to assume hereunder, no fee or other compensation will ever accrue or be or become owing, due or payable for or on account of such interim servicing and such interim servicing rights have no monetary value.

(b) During the period Seller is interim servicing the Purchased Mortgage Loans as agent for Administrative Agent and Buyers, Seller agrees that Buyers are the owners of the related Servicing Rights, Credit Files and Servicing Records and Seller, acting as interim servicer, shall at all times maintain and safeguard, and cause any Subservicer to maintain and safeguard, the servicing records included in the Credit File for the Purchased Mortgage Loan (including photocopies or images of the documents delivered to Administrative Agent) to the extent in its possession or control, and accurate and complete records of its interim servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller’s possession of servicing records included in the Credit Files and Servicing Records being for the sole purpose of interim servicing such Purchased Mortgage Loans and such retention and possession by Seller being in a temporary custodial capacity only.

(i) Administrative Agent may, at any time during Seller’s business hours on reasonable notice (provided that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, no notice shall be required), examine and make copies of all such documents and records relating to interim servicing and administration of the Purchased Mortgage Loans.

(ii) At Administrative Agent’s request, Seller shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent reports regarding the status of any Purchased Mortgage Loan being interim serviced by Seller, which reports shall include a description of any default thereunder for more than thirty (30) days or any other circumstances that could cause a material adverse effect on such Purchased Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent’s title (as agent and representative of Buyers) to such Purchased Mortgage Loan or the collateral securing such Purchased Mortgage Loan; Seller may be required to deliver such reports until the repurchase of the Purchased Mortgage Loan by Seller.

(iii) Seller shall immediately notify Administrative Agent if the Cash Manager has actual knowledge of any default under any Subservicing Agreement that would materially and adversely affect any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject thereto.

(iv) If, during the Post-Origination Period, any Mortgagor contacts Seller requesting a payoff quote on the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall ensure that any payoff funds received from such Mortgagor are transferred promptly to the Funding Account.

(d) Seller shall release its custody of the contents of the servicing records included in any Credit File or any Asset File relating to a Purchased Mortgage Loan only (i) pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the written instructions of Administrative Agent, (iii) upon the consent of Administrative Agent when such release is required as incidental to Seller’s servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, or is required to complete the Takeout Funding or comply with the Takeout Guidelines, or (iv) as required by any Requirements of Law.

(e) Administrative Agent reserves the right to appoint a successor interim servicer, or a regular servicer, at any time to service any Purchased Mortgage Loan (each a “Successor Servicer”) in its sole discretion. If Administrative Agent elects to make such an appointment after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, Seller shall be assessed all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Buyers associated with transferring the physical and contractual servicing materials, files and records for the servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with all related Servicing Records, to the Successor Servicer. In the event of such an appointment, Seller shall perform all acts and take all action so that any part of the servicing records included in the Credit File and related Servicing Records held by Seller, together with any and all mortgagors’ escrow payments held in any account and all other receipts relating to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, are promptly delivered to the Successor Servicer, and shall otherwise fully cooperate with Administrative Agent in effectuating such transfer. Seller shall have no claim for lost interim servicing income, any termination fee, lost profits or other damages if Administrative Agent appoints a Successor Servicer hereunder. Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without payment of any termination fee or any other amount to Seller, sell any or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a servicing released basis, at the sole cost and expense of Seller.

(f) In the event Seller is terminated as interim servicer of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, whether by expiry of the Interim Servicing Term or by any other means, Seller shall cooperate with Administrative Agent in effecting such termination and transferring all authority to interim service such Purchased Mortgage Loan to the Successor Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall, in the manner and at such times as the Successor Servicer or Administrative Agent shall reasonably request (i) promptly transfer all data in its possession relating to the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans and other Mortgage Assets to the Successor Servicer in such electronic format as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request, (ii) promptly transfer to the Successor Servicer, Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent’s designee all other files, records, correspondence and documents relating to the servicing of the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans and other Mortgage Assets then in its possession or control and (iii) fully cooperate and coordinate with the Successor Servicer and/or Administrative Agent to comply with any applicable so-called “goodbye” letter requirements, notices or other applicable requirements of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act or other applicable Requirements of Law applicable to the transfer of the servicing of the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans. Seller agrees that if Seller fails to cooperate with Administrative Agent or any Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of Seller as servicer of any Purchased Mortgage Loan or the transfer of all authority to service such Purchased Mortgage Loan to such Successor Servicer in accordance with the terms hereof, Buyers and Administrative Agents will be irreparably harmed and entitled to injunctive relief and shall not be required to post bond.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document, Seller, Buyers and Administrative Agent agree that all Servicing Rights with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans are being transferred hereunder to Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) on the applicable Purchase Date, the Purchase Price for the Purchased Mortgage Loans includes full and fair consideration for such Servicing Rights and such

Servicing Rights will be conclusively deemed to be transferred by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) to Seller upon Seller’s payment of the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loans.

If Seller desires that Custodian send an Asset File or Administrative Agent send a Loan Eligibility File to an Approved Takeout Investor or another warehousing or other mortgage financing institution, rather than to Seller directly, in connection with Seller’s repurchase of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, or in a Pool to an Agency Custodian for the Agency that will issue or guaranty and MBS based on and backed by such Pool upon the Agency Custodian’s certification of such Pool, then Seller shall prepare and send to Custodian and Administrative Agent written shipping instructions pursuant to Section 10 (Shipment of Documents) of the Custodial Agreement instructing Custodian and Administrative Agent when and how to send such Asset File or Loan Eligibility File, as applicable, to such Approved Takeout Investor or its designee. Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to send the Loan Eligibility File on or before the date specified for shipment in such shipping instructions in accordance with the cutoff times specified in the “Chase Mortgage Warehouse Finance Customer Reference Guide” provided by Administrative Agent to Seller, or otherwise specified by Administrative Agent to Seller in writing from time to time. If Seller instructs Custodian to send an Asset File before the Repurchase Date, Custodian will send the Mortgage Note and related Mortgage under a Bailee Letter as provided in the Custodial Agreement. If Seller does not provide Custodian with shipping instructions with respect to a Mortgage Loan before its Repurchase Price is paid to Administrative Agent, Custodian shall send the Asset File to Seller or its designee after Administrative Agent receives the Repurchase Price therefor.

(b) Delivery Versus Payment or Delivery Versus MBS. Upon Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Repurchase Price for a Pool of Purchased Mortgage Loans from an Approved Takeout Investor to whom Custodian has shipped the related Asset File or Administrative Agent has shipped the related Loan Eligibility File in a delivery versus payment or “swap for payment” transaction, all of Administrative Agent’s interests in the Purchased Mortgage Loans that are part of such Pool (but no others) shall automatically be released and Seller’s repurchase thereof shall be completed. Upon delivery into the Joint Securities Account of an MBS in exchange for a Pool that includes Purchased Mortgage Loans shipped to an

Agency Custodian in a delivery versus MBS or “swap for MBS” transaction, all of Administrative Agent’s interests in the Purchased Mortgage Loans included in such Pool (but no others) shall automatically be released and a securities entitlement in the Joint Securities Account and such MBS held therein proportionate to the aggregate value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans contained in the Pool from which such MBS was created shall be conclusively deemed to be a Mortgage Asset subject to a new Transaction effective as of the date of delivery of such MBS into the Joint Securities Account and accepted by Administrative Agent as a Mortgage Asset in substitution for the Purchased Mortgage Loans included in the Pool from which such MBS was created, with each such securities entitlement having a Repurchase Price equal to (x) the sum of the Purchase Prices of the Purchased Mortgage Loans included in such Pool plus (y) accrued and unpaid Price Differential on such Purchased Mortgage Loans, calculated as if they were still subject to Transactions, such Price Differential to be calculated at the Pricing Rate for Pooled Loans from their Pooling Date, until Administrative Agent’s receipt of Administrative Agent’s share of the cash Repurchase Price for such MBS (determined in accordance with the provisions of the Joint Securities Account Control Agreement) either from sale of the MBS to an Approved Takeout Investor or by direct payment by Seller. Seller may cause such securities entitlement in such MBS to be delivered to an Approved Takeout Investor pursuant to any related Takeout Commitment against payment of a cash amount at least equal to the Repurchase Price therefor. If Administrative Agent’s release of any Purchased Mortgage Loans shipped for securitization shall become effective and the MBS to be based on and backed by them (or any of them) shall not be delivered into the Joint Securities Account within two (2) Business Days after the Settlement Date of such MBS, Seller shall pay Administrative Agent the Repurchase Price therefor upon written demand made by Administrative Agent then or at any time thereafter before Administrative Agent has received the Repurchase Price from the securities intermediary under and pursuant to the Joint Securities Account Control Agreement. On the same Business Day that Seller receives any such written demand if given at or before 10:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, or on the next Business Day if such notice is given after 10:00 a.m., Seller shall pay such Repurchase Price to Administrative Agent (for Buyers’ accounts) and shall submit a Completed Repurchase Advice. If such MBS is delivered into the Joint Securities Account after Seller has so repurchased it, upon Seller’s request, Administrative Agent will confirm to the securities intermediary that the related securities entitlement has been repurchased by Seller.

18. Further Assurances.

Seller shall (i) promptly provide such further assurances or agreements as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in good faith in order to effect the purposes of this Agreement and (ii) mark its systems and/or other data processing records evidencing the Purchased Mortgage Loans with a legend or other identifier evidencing that Administrative Agent has acquired an interest therein as provided in this Agreement.

19. Administrative Agent as Attorney-in-Fact

Administrative Agent is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of Seller for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instruments that Administrative Agent may, in good faith, deem necessary or advisable to

accomplish the purposes hereof, including receiving, endorsing and collecting all checks made payable to the order of Seller representing any Income on any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and giving full discharge for the same and perfect and continue the Lien granted hereby and protect, preserve and realize on the Mortgage Assets, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Administrative Agent agrees to not exercise the power granted by this Section 19 unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided that Administrative Agent may (i) add and amend endorsements in Seller’s name of Mortgage Notes relating to Purchased Mortgage Loans either in blank or to any Approved Takeout Investor or its designee, cancel endorsements and re-endorse Mortgage Notes in Seller’s name and (ii) take such actions as it deems in good faith to be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the purposes hereof, to perfect and continue the Lien granted hereby and to protect and preserve the Mortgage Assets, at any time before or after any Event of Default has occurred.

21. Entire Agreement; Severability

This Agreement, as supplemented by the Side Letter, supersedes any existing agreements between the Parties containing terms and conditions for Mortgage Loan repurchase transactions. Each provision and agreement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any of such other provisions or agreements. Without limiting the generality

of the foregoing, if any phrase or clause of any Transaction Document would render any provision or agreement of that (or any other) Transaction Document unenforceable, such phrase or clause shall be disregarded and deemed deleted, and such provision or agreement shall be enforced as fully as if the offending phrase or clause had never appeared.

22. Assignment and Participation; Pledges to a Federal Reserve Bank or Federal Home Loan Bank

(a) The rights and obligations of Seller under this Agreement and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and any such assignment without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent shall be null and void.

(b) Any Buyer may assign all or any portion of its rights, obligations and interest under this Agreement and in the Mortgage Assets at any time without the consent of any Person, provided that any such assignment, other than an assignment to an Affiliate of such Buyer, is subject to the prior written consent of Seller so long as an Event of Default or Default has not occurred and is not continuing; for the avoidance of doubt, Seller’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing. Any such assignment shall be in a minimum amount of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) unless otherwise consented to by Seller (provided that Seller’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing) and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no such assignment shall result in Chase having a Commitment of less than Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000).

(c) Resales of Purchased Mortgage Loans by Administrative Agent (subject to Seller’s right to repurchase the Purchased Mortgage Loans before termination of this Agreement, their shipment to an Approved Takeout Investor or an Agency Custodian pursuant to Section 17 or Administrative Agent’s liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 12 and Administrative Agent’s obligation to credit or pay Income to, or apply Income to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to this Agreement) in accordance with applicable law, shall be permitted without restriction. In addition to, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in, the foregoing, any Buyer may assign its rights to enforce this Agreement as to any Purchased Mortgage Loan to any Person that subsequently purchases such Purchased Mortgage Loan from such Buyer or provides financing to such Buyer with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan.

(d) Any Buyer may sell participation interests in all or any portion of its rights, obligations and interest under this Agreement and in the Mortgage Assets to any Person at any time without the consent of any other Person.

(e) Each Buyer may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 22, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee (including potential Buyers) or participant, as the case may be, any information relating to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to such Buyer or Administrative Agent by or on behalf of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that (i) such proposed assignee (including any potential Buyer) or

participant first executes with Administrative Agent a nondisclosure agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit K prior to such proposed assignee or participant first receiving any such information from such Buyer or Administrative Agent, and (ii) Administrative Agent shall deliver to Seller a fully executed copy of (1) each nondisclosure agreement executed by any assignee or participant or proposed assignee (including any potential Buyer) or participant, as the case may be, promptly after any such nondisclosure agreement is executed and (2) each participation agreement promptly after it is executed.

(f) In addition to the foregoing, any Buyer may, at any time in its sole discretion, pledge or grant a Lien in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including any rights to Mortgage Assets and any rights to payment of the Repurchase Price) to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or Federal Home Loan Bank, without notice to or consent of Seller; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest would release any Buyer from any of its obligations under this Agreement, including any obligations to deliver the same Purchased Mortgage Loans back to Seller upon receipt of payment of the Repurchase Price therefor, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Buyer as a party to this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 22, Buyer shall not be precluded from assigning, charging or otherwise dealing with all or any part of its interest in any sum payable to it under Section 12.

23. Binding Effect; Automatic Termination.

(a) Subject to the restrictions on assignments in Section 22, this Agreement and any Transactions shall bind and benefit the Parties and their respective successors, participants and assigns.

(b) This Agreement and all Transactions outstanding hereunder shall terminate automatically without any requirement for notice on the date occurring on or after the Termination Date on which all Repurchase Prices and all other obligations of Seller under the Transaction Documents have been paid in full.

24. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

25. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (EXCEPT FOR SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

(b) SELLER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND BUYERS EACH HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. SELLER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND BUYERS EACH HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 25 SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST SELLER OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS. EACH PARTY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES OF SUCH PROCESS TO IT AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES HEREUNDER SPECIFIED IN SECTION 15.

(c) EACH OF SELLER, BUYER AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF) HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN SELLER AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BUYER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO BUYERS AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO PROVIDE THE FACILITY EVIDENCED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

26. No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by Administrative Agent or any Buyer shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by Administrative Agent or any Buyer shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any Party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the Parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 4(a) will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

27. Use of Employee Plan Assets

(a) If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of ERISA are intended to be used by Seller in a Transaction, Seller shall so notify Administrative Agent before the Transaction. Seller shall represent in writing to Administrative Agent that the Transaction

does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and Administrative Agent may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to proceed.

(b) Subject to the last sentence of Section 27(a), any such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to Buyers and Administrative Agent its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition.

(c) By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Section 27, Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyers and Administrative Agent that since the date of Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller’s financial condition that Seller has not disclosed to Administrative Agent, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyers and Administrative Agent with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as any such Transaction is outstanding.

28. Intent

(a) The Parties intend and acknowledge that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code, and that the pledge of the Mortgage Assets constitutes “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” this Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Seller, Administrative Agent and Buyer further recognize and intend that this Agreement is an agreement to provide financial accommodations and is not subject to assumption pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365(a). Seller hereby agrees that it shall not challenge the characterization of this Agreement as a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, as a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code or as a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, in any dispute or proceeding.

(b) It is understood that the right of Buyers and Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or to liquidate Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder, or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 12, is a contractual right to accelerate, terminate or liquidate this Agreement or such Transaction as described in Sections 555, 559 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code; any payments or transfers of property made with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction to satisfy a Margin Deficit shall be considered a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5).

(c) The Parties agree and acknowledge that if a Party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the FDIA, each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements

thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the FDICIA and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as any of the Parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

(e) This Agreement is intended to be a “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract”, within the meaning of Section 101(47), Section 555, Section 559 and Section 741 under the Bankruptcy Code.

29. Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The Parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other Party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other Party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder other than funds on deposit in an Account are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

30. Confidentiality

(a) Confidential Terms. To effectuate this Agreement, Administrative Agent and Seller may disclose to each other certain confidential or proprietary information relating to the parties’ operations, computer systems, technical data, financial data, business methods, and other information designated by the disclosing party or its agent to be confidential, or that should be considered confidential in nature by a reasonable person given the nature of the information and the circumstances of its disclosure (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information can consist of information that is either oral or written or both, and may include, without limitation, any of the following: (i) any reports, information or material concerning or pertaining to businesses, methods, plans, finances, accounting statements, and/or projects of either party or their affiliated or related entities; (ii) any of the foregoing related to the parties or

their related or affiliated entities and/or their present or future activities and/or (iii) any term or condition of any agreement (including this Agreement) between either party and any individual or entity relating to any of their business operations. With respect to Confidential Information, each of the parties hereby agrees, except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement:

(i) not to use the Confidential Information except in furtherance of this Agreement;

(ii) to use reasonable efforts to safeguard the Confidential Information against disclosure to any unauthorized third party with the same degree of care as they exercise with their own information of similar nature;

(iii) not to disclose Confidential Information to anyone other than its Affiliates and its and their employees, officers, directors, legal counsel, accountants and auditors (each, a “Representative”) with a need to have access to the Confidential Information and who are informed by the disclosing party of the confidential or proprietary nature of the Confidential Information and who are directed by such party to treat the Confidential Information in a manner consistent with the terms of this Section 30 except that the parties shall not be prevented from using or disclosing any of the Confidential Information which: (i) is already known to the receiving party at the time it is obtained from the disclosing party (and such is not otherwise subject to a duty of confidentiality); (ii) is now, or becomes in the future, public knowledge other than through wrongful acts or omissions of the party receiving the Confidential Information; (iii) is lawfully obtained by the party from sources independent of the party disclosing the Confidential Information and without confidentiality and/or non-use restrictions; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without any use of the Confidential Information of the disclosing party; and

(iv) to advise its Representatives (and if applicable, Buyer Third-Party Recipients) who are informed of the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, that the United States securities laws prohibit any individual who has received from an issuer of securities material, non-public information concerning the matters that are the subject of this Agreement from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communicating such information to any other individual under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such other individual is likely to purchase or sell such securities in reliance upon such information.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may share any Confidential Information of Seller with (i) a Representative of Administrative Agent who Administrative Agent determines should be made aware of the Confidential Information in connection with Administrative Agent’s engagement by Seller; provided that, any such sharing of Confidential Information with a Representative of Administrative Agent conforms to the requirements herein; (ii) any prospective or actual assignee, participant or repledgee to assist such Person in determining whether to enter into an assignment, participation or repurchase transactions in connection with the Transaction Documents; (iii) any hedge counterparty to the extent necessary to obtain any hedging in connection with the Transactions under the Transaction Documents; and (iv) any Person that provides or intends to provide

liquidity to Administrative Agent to further the Transactions set forth in the Transaction Documents (the Persons identified in clauses (ii)-(iv) of this subsection (b), the “Buyer Third-Party Recipients”); provided that, in the case of clauses (ii) through (iv) of this subsection (b), (A) such Person agrees to be bound by this covenant of confidentiality, or is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions no less strict than those set forth in this Section 30 and (B) other than during the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, with respect to Confidential Information consisting of (x) non-public financial information of Seller, including, without limitation, the contents of the financial reporting exhibits and schedules attached to this Agreement containing an MNPI legend affixed by Seller (as may be modified from time to time by Seller), (y) non-public personal information (as defined in the GLB Act) of an obligor with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan and (z) non-public, non-financial information pertaining to Seller that either (1) relates to developments or strategic initiatives, including but not limited to potential or actual acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic transactions, partnerships or initiatives; material or new product developments; material changes in management or organizational structure, material investigations or non-routine examinations from regulators and any other developments which materially affect Seller’s financial condition or prospects, or (2) is designated in writing by Seller as constituting material non-public information, in each case, such Confidential Information in clauses (x)-(z) (“Special Confidential Information”) shall not be shared with a Buyer Third-Party Recipient without the advance written consent of Seller (which may be provided by e-mail), which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld and shall, once given, extend to all such Special Confidential Information in relation to the applicable Buyer Third-Party Recipient to the extent that such additional material is provided solely for the purposes specified in clauses (ii) – (iv) above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Seller’ limited consent to share Special Confidential Information with a Buyer Third-Party Recipient shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of: (i) the date that Administrative Agent abandons all further initiatives to consummate a transaction contemplated in clauses (ii) – (iv) above with such Buyer Third-Party Recipient, but in any event no later than one year after the date such limited consent was granted by Seller, (ii) the termination of any transaction or series of transactions that, pursuant to their terms, require Administrative Agent to forward such Special Confidential Information to such Buyer Third-Party Recipient or (iii) the termination of the Transaction Documents (each of the events described in clauses (i) - (iii), a “Consent Termination Event”). Upon the occurrence of a Consent Termination Event, Administrative Agent shall (i) subject to applicable law, rule and regulation and Administrative Agent’s document retention policies and procedures, promptly return to Seller or destroy all copies of the Special Confidential Information in its possession, and (ii) instruct recipients of such Special Confidential Information that their confidentiality obligations with respect to such Special Confidential Information survive the Consent Termination Event.

(c) In addition, the Transaction Documents and their respective terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and transactions and notices thereunder (other than the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions), are proprietary to Administrative Agent and shall be held by Seller in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the consent of Administrative Agent except for (i) disclosure to Seller’s direct and indirect parent companies, directors, attorneys, agents or accountants, provided that such attorneys or

accountants likewise agree to be bound by this covenant of confidentiality, or are otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions; (ii) upon prior written notice to Administrative Agent, disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body; (iii) upon prior written notice to Administrative Agent, disclosure to any approved hedge counterparty to the extent necessary to obtain any hedging hereunder; (iv) any disclosures or filing required under the 1934 Act or state securities’ laws; or (v) the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions, which shall not be deemed confidential; provided that in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this subsection (c), Seller shall take reasonable actions to provide Administrative Agent with prior written notice; provided further that in the case of clause (iv) of this subsection (c), Seller shall not file any of the Transaction Documents other than this Agreement with the SEC or state securities office unless Seller have (x) provided at least thirty (30) days (or such lesser time as may be demanded by the SEC or state securities office) prior written notice of such filing to Administrative Agent, and (y) redacted all pricing information and other commercial terms.

(d) If any party or any of its Representatives breaches its respective duty of confidentiality under this Agreement, the non-breaching party(ies) shall be entitled to all remedies available at law and/or in equity, including, without limitation, injunctive relief. For the avoidance of doubt, each of Administrative Agent and Seller shall be solely responsible for any breaches of confidentiality by any of its respective Representatives and in the case of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall also be solely responsible for any breaches of confidentiality by Buyer Third-Party Recipients.

31. Setoff

(a) Seller Waives Setoff Rights. Except to the extent specifically permitted herein, Seller hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives all right to setoff for or on account of any obligation or liability of Administrative Agent, any Buyer, any Buyer’s participant or any of their Affiliates under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, whether pursuant to contract or applicable law, in equity or otherwise, with respect to any funds or monies of Administrative Agent, any Buyer, any Buyer’s participant or any of their Affiliates at any time held by or in the possession of Seller.

(b) Buyers and Administrative Agent Waive Certain Setoff Rights. Except to the extent specifically permitted herein, Administrative Agent, each Buyer, each Buyer’s participants and each of their Affiliates under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives all right to setoff for or on account of any obligation or liability of Seller under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, whether pursuant to contract or applicable law, in equity or otherwise, with respect to any funds or monies of Seller or its Affiliates held by Administrative Agent, each Buyer, each Buyer’s participants and each of their Affiliates, including any bank accounts of Seller or any of its Affiliates with any of them or any deposits in such accounts or any amounts due or owing under any Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreement among any of them, or any of Buyers’, Administrative Agent’s or their Affiliates’ assets, rights or obligations under any other arrangement or agreement with Seller or any of its Affiliates; provided that if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,

Administrative Agent shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (whether at the stated maturity, by termination, acceleration or otherwise) to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) in any of the Accounts, the Income Collection Account or any other funding, operating or other deposit account related to the facility provided for in this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of all Buyers in the proportion that each Buyer’s pro rata share of the Aggregate Purchase Price bears to the Aggregate Purchase Price outstanding at the time of the setoff, appropriation or application; provided further that Administrative Agent may set off funds or monies of Seller on deposit in any of the Accounts, the Income Collection Account or any other funding, operating or other deposit account related to the facility provided for in this Agreement, only against amounts Seller owes to Buyers, Administrative Agent or any other Indemnified Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or another Transaction Document; and provided further that the foregoing right of setoff shall not apply to any deposit of escrow monies being held on behalf of the mortgagors under Purchased Mortgage Loans. Administrative Agent agrees to promptly notify Seller after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

32. WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES.

SELLER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH BUYER WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT SELLER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY BUYER MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM SELLER, BUYERS OR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES EXCEPT CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING UNDER OR OUT OF SELLER’S, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S OR ANY BUYER’S EXPRESS INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.

33. No Fiduciary Duty, etc.

Seller acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that neither Buyers nor Administrative Agent will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and Buyers and Administrative Agent are each acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s-length contractual counterparty to Seller with respect to the Transaction Documents and the Transactions and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, Seller or any other Person. Seller agrees that it will not assert any claim against Buyers or Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Person in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions. Additionally, Seller acknowledges and agrees that neither Buyers nor Administrative Agent is advising Seller as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. Seller will consult with its own advisors concerning this Agreement and the Transactions and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal

of the Transactions, and neither Buyers nor Administrative Agent shall have any responsibility or liability to Seller with respect thereto.

34. USA PATRIOT ACT NOTIFICATION.

The following notification is provided to Seller pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. What this means for Seller: When Seller opens an account, if Seller is an individual, Administrative Agent will ask for Seller’s name, taxpayer identification number, residential address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Administrative Agent to identify Seller, and if Seller is not an individual, Administrative Agent will ask for Seller’s name, taxpayer identification number, business address, and other information that will allow Administrative Agent to identify Seller. Administrative Agent may also ask, if Seller is an individual, to see Seller’s driver’s license or other identifying documents, and if Seller is not an individual to see Seller’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.

35. Amendment and Restatement of Prior MRA.

(a) This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Prior MRA effective as of the date hereof, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7(a), and shall have the effect of a substitution of terms of the Prior MRA, but this Agreement will not have the effect of causing a novation or repayment of the obligations under the Prior MRA or a termination or extinguishment of the Liens granted under the Prior MRA, but instead such obligations shall remain outstanding and repayable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and such Liens shall remain attached, enforceable and perfected securing such obligations and all additional payment and performance obligations of Seller arising under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(b) Seller authorizes Administrative Agent to amend and continue the UCC financing statements filed in connection with the Prior MRA from time to time in any manner deemed desirable or reasonably necessary by Buyer, in its sole discretion, to maintain the perfection and priority of such Liens granted under the Prior MRA.

Exhibit B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

With respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan, (i) as of the Purchase Date for the purchase of any Purchased Mortgage Loans by Administrative Agent (as agent and representative of Buyers) from Seller and as of the date of this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder, and (ii) at all times while the Transaction Documents or any Transaction hereunder is in force and effect, Seller represents and warrants to Buyers and Administrative Agent that each of the statements set forth in the lettered clauses of this Exhibit B is true and correct in all material respects. For purposes of this Exhibit B and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Mortgage Loan if and when Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Mortgage Loan. With respect to those representations and warranties that are made to the best of Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered by Seller or Administrative Agent that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate, notwithstanding Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty (if Administrative Agent shall determine that a Purchased Mortgage Loan is not an Eligible Mortgage Loan because of the inaccuracy of such a representation or warranty, Administrative Agent will give Seller written notice specifying the affected Purchased Mortgage Loan or Loans).

(a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the related Asset Schedule is complete, true and correct in all material respects as of the related Purchase Date.

(b) Valid First Lien. The Mortgage is properly recorded (or, as to newly-Originated Mortgage Loans, is in the process of being recorded) and is a valid, existing and enforceable first Lien with respect to each Mortgage Loan including all improvements thereon, free and clear of all adverse claims, and Liens having priority over the Lien of the Mortgage, subject in all cases to the exceptions of title set forth in the title insurance policy with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, which exceptions are acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in lender’s title insurance policy that was delivered to the Seller, the exceptions set forth below and such other exceptions to which similar properties are commonly subject and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect the benefits of the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage. In addition to the foregoing, such Lien may be subject to (i) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet delinquent; (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording that are acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in lender’s title insurance policy that was delivered to the Seller and that do not adversely affect the purchase by, or the purchase price to be paid by, the Approved Takeout Investor; and (iii) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject that do not individually or in the aggregate materially and adversely affect the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or

Exhibit B, Page 1

equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest securing the related Mortgage Loan on the property described therein and Seller has full right to sell and assign the related Mortgage Assets to Administrative Agent.

(c) Validity of Mortgage Documents. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, Seller or its designee has in its possession all Servicing Files except for those Servicing Files (including for each eMortgage Loan, the eClosing Transaction Record) that Seller has disclosed to Administrative Agent are outstanding. The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine, or in the case of an eNote, the copy of the eNote transmitted to Administrative Agent’s eVault is the Authoritative Copy and the tamper-seal on the eNote matches the tamper- seal stored on the MERS® eRegistry, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Mortgagor thereof, enforceable in all respects in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors and (ii) general principles of equity, whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law, and Seller has taken all action required by this Agreement or requested by Administrative Agent to transfer such rights of enforceability to Buyers. Neither the operation of any of the terms of any Mortgage or Mortgage Note, nor the proper exercise by any holder of any right thereunder, will render the Mortgage or Mortgage Note unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, and no such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto. All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties. All items required to be delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered to Administrative Agent, within the time frames set forth in this Agreement, and if a document is delivered in imaged format, such images must be of sufficient quality to be readable and able to be copied. There is only one original executed Mortgage Note (or, in the case of an eNote, only one Authoritative Copy of the eNote, and each other copy of such Authoritative Copy is readily identifiable as a copy that is not the Authoritative Copy of the eNote) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and, if an eMortgage Loan, the Mortgagor only signed the eNote at origination and did not also execute an original paper version.

(d) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure, subject to applicable federal and state laws and judicial precedent with respect to bankruptcy and right of redemption. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property, subject to applicable federal and state laws and judicial precedent with respect to bankruptcy and right of redemption. There is no homestead or other exemption or right available to the Mortgagor that would interfere with the right to sell the

Exhibit B, Page 2

Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage, subject to applicable federal and state laws and judicial precedent with respect to bankruptcy and right of redemption. The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms that conform to the Agency Guidelines.

(e) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the date of origination, except only if the Mortgage Loan is not an eMortgage Loan, by written instruments that (i) do not affect the amount or timing of any payment of principal or interest payable with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, (ii) have been recorded in the applicable public recording office if required by law or if necessary to protect the interests of Administrative Agent, (iii) have been delivered to Administrative Agent or the Custodian as required by this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement, and (iv) if such instrument modifies an eNote, such modification (x) does not affect the amount or timing of any payment of principal or interest payable with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan and (y) is reflected on the MERS® eRegistry, and the eNote and related Mortgage Loan Documents remain valid, effective and enforceable and in compliance with all applicable eCommerce Laws and Agency Guidelines; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the insurer under the private mortgage insurance policy, if any, and by the title insurer, if any, to the extent required by the related policy provided by Seller, and with respect to RHS Loans, has been approved by RHS to the extent required by the Rural Housing Guaranty, and such modification is reflected appropriately on any and all documentation or data and is true and accurate in all material respects. No other instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the private mortgage insurance policy, if any, and by the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and with respect to RHS Loans, has been approved by RHS to the extent required by the Rural Housing Guaranty, and which assumption agreement is a part of the Asset File, the Loan Eligibility File and/or the Servicing File, as applicable. As of the Purchase Date, the full original principal amount of each Mortgage Loan has been fully disbursed as provided for in the Mortgage Loan Documents, and there is no requirement for any future advances. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any amendment, modification, waiver, settlement or compromise with respect to a Mortgage Loan that grants or agrees to forbearance as described in Section 4022 of the CARES Act (whether or not required thereby or granted pursuant thereto), of any payment of principal or interest for any period of time, (ii) any request by an obligor for forbearance of any payment of principal or interest for any period of time under its Mortgage Loan pursuant to the CARES Act, and (iii) any failure to grant forbearance for a Mortgage Loan when requested by an obligor thereof entitled thereto as provided for in the CARES Act, shall in each case automatically cause such Mortgage Loan to immediately fail or cease to be, as applicable, an Eligible Mortgage Loan.

(f) No Defenses. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of

Exhibit B, Page 3

usury, and no such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto; and the Mortgagor was not, as of the Origination Date, subject to an Act of Insolvency.

(g) No Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults by Seller or any Subservicer in complying with the terms of the Mortgage, and (1) all taxes, special assessments, governmental assessments, insurance premiums and municipal charges that previously became due and owing have been paid or are not delinquent, or escrow funds have been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such escrowed item that remains unpaid and that has been assessed but is not yet delinquent before any “economic loss” dates or discount dates (or if payments were made after any “economic loss” date or discount date, then Seller has paid any penalty or reimbursed any discount out of Seller’s funds) and (2) all flood and hazard insurance premiums and private mortgage insurance premiums that are due, have been paid without loss or penalty to the Mortgagor. As of the Purchase Date, other than payments due but not yet thirty (30) days or more delinquent, no event that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under a Mortgage Loan has occurred, including, as of the Origination Date, a violation of applicable law, local ordinances or city codes resulting from a deterioration or defect existing in any Mortgaged Property, and neither Seller nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration. Seller has received no notice of, and has no actual knowledge of, any event, including the bankruptcy filing or death of a Mortgagor, that has resulted in a Mortgagor default under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage. None of Seller or any Subservicer has advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance from any Person other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount due under the Mortgage Loan, unless otherwise permitted in the Agency Guidelines.

(h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the Lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination or rescission other than in the case of a release of a portion of the land comprising Mortgaged Property or a release of a blanket Mortgage which release will not cause the Mortgage Loan to fail to satisfy the applicable Agency Guidelines. Neither Seller nor any Subservicer has waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, and neither Seller nor any Subservicer has waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor.

(i) No Default. Other than payments due but not yet thirty (30) days or more delinquent, there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration, and neither Seller nor any Subservicer has waived any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan (i) the first Lien securing the Mortgage Loan is in full force and effect, (ii) there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under such

Exhibit B, Page 4

first-lien Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note, and (iii) no event that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder.

(j) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed to or for the account of the Mortgagor and there is no obligation for the mortgagee to advance additional funds thereunder and any and all requirements as to completion of any on site or off site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees, and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage have been paid or are in the process of being paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due to the mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage with exception to escrow holdbacks.

(k) No Mechanics’ Liens. There are no mechanics’ or similar Liens or claims filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such a Lien) affecting the related Mortgaged Property that are or may be Liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the Lien of the related Mortgage.

(l) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the Lien of the corresponding Mortgage on the Mortgaged Property and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage.

(m) Origination; Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was Originated by Seller, which is a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or other similar institution that is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority or duly licensed by state licensing authority, if applicable. Seller and all other parties that have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and either (1) organized under the laws of such state, (2) qualified to do business in such state, (3) federal savings and loan associations, savings banks or national banks having principal offices in such state, (4) not doing business in such state or (5) not required by any Requirement of Law to be qualified to do business in such state. Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced or will commence no more than sixty (60) days after the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were disbursed. The Mortgage Loan requires interest payable in arrears on the first day of the month. Each Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment that is sufficient (i) during the period before the first adjustment to the Mortgage interest rate, to amortize the original principal balance fully over the original term thereof (unless otherwise provided in the Agency Guidelines) and to pay interest at the related Mortgage interest rate, and (ii) during the period following each interest rate adjustment date in the case of each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, to amortize the outstanding principal balance fully as of the first day of such period over the then remaining term of such Mortgage Note and to pay interest at the related Mortgage interest rate. The Mortgage

Exhibit B, Page 5

Note does not permit negative amortization. Interest on the Mortgage Note is calculated on the basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Mortgage Loan is not a simple interest Mortgage Loan (meaning a Mortgage Loan on which interest is calculated on a daily basis). The Mortgage Loan does not require a balloon payment upon the maturity thereof. The Mortgage Note does not by its terms provide for the capitalization or forbearance of interest.

(n) Ownership. At the time of Administrative Agent’s payment of the Purchase Price, Seller was the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note. Immediately before the Purchase Date, the Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, is not assigned or pledged by Seller (although it may be, or have been, subject to a Takeout Commitment) and Seller has good and marketable title thereto, full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to Buyers free and clear of any Lien, participation interest, equity, pledge or claim and full right and authority subject to no interest or participation in, or agreement with, any other Person to sell or otherwise transfer the Mortgage Loan, subject to any applicable Takeout Commitment. Following the sale of the Mortgage Loan, Buyers will own such Mortgage Loan and the other Mortgage Assets free and clear of any Lien except for the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement and subject to Seller’s repurchase rights and applicable Takeout Commitments and Buyers have a valid and perfected first priority security interest in all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan and the other Mortgage Assets then existing and thereafter arising in each case free and clear of any Lien, subject to Seller’s repurchase rights and applicable Takeout Commitments. After the related Purchase Date, Seller will not have any right to modify or alter the terms of the sale of the Mortgage Loan to Buyers and Seller will not have any obligation or right to repurchase the Mortgage Loan, except as provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed to by Seller and Buyers. Seller has full right to sell, assign and transfer the Mortgage Loan without the consent of the related Mortgagor or any other Person.

(o) Transfer of Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is a MERS Designated Mortgage Loan. The original Mortgage was recorded in the appropriate jurisdictions wherein such recordation is necessary to perfect the Lien thereof as against creditors of the Mortgagor, or is in the process of being recorded. Seller has registered the Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System or will do so within five (5) Business Days after the Purchase Date. No Person (other than Administrative Agent, which may, at its election, list itself as interim funder) is listed as interim funder on the MERS® System with respect to such Mortgage Loan.

(p) Hazard Insurance. Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, all buildings or other improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such other hazards as are provided for in the applicable Agency Guidelines or FHA, VA, RHS or HUD guidelines, as well as all additional requirements set forth in the Agency Guidelines. If required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the related Mortgaged Property is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the applicable requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration as in effect which policy conforms to the applicable Agency Guidelines, or FHA, VA, RHS or HUD guidelines. All individual insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller and its successors and assigns as mortgagee, and all

Exhibit B, Page 6

premiums due and owing thereon have been paid. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance policies at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at such Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of such policy, including, without limitation, to Seller’s knowledge, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller, in any case.

(q) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans or reverse mortgage loans, as applicable, in the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in California a CLTA lender’s title insurance policy, or other generally acceptable form of policy, wrapper or insurance acceptable to the applicable Agency, FHA, VA, RHS or HUD and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to the applicable Agency, FHA, VA, RHS or HUD and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of paragraph (b) of this Exhibit B, and in the case of adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment to the Mortgage interest rate and monthly payment. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception with a specific survey reading. Seller and its successors and assigns are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything that would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy, including without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any

Exhibit B, Page 7

attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(r) Closing Protection Letter. For each Wet Loan for which the related Settlement Agent involved in the Wet Funding (x) is Title Source, Inc., there is either (1) a blanket Closing Protection Letter covering settlements of multiple Mortgage Loans (which shall not be required to be included in each Loan Eligibility File), or (2) a fidelity bond covering Title Source, Inc., naming Administrative Agent as loss payee, as its interest may appear, and providing Administrative Agent with a right to directly provide written notice of a claim if Seller fails to give written notice of such loss; provided that Seller shall have forty-five (45) days following the date of this Agreement to put in place the right for Administrative Agent to directly provide such written notice, or (y) is not Title Source, Inc., (1) a fully executed Closing Protection Letter, or (2) a blanket Closing Protection Letter covering settlements of multiple Mortgage Loans (which shall not be required to be included in each Loan Eligibility File); provided that up to [***] of the Wet Loans Originated by Seller in any calendar month may be settled by Settlement Agents (other than Title Source, Inc.) for which no Closing Protection Letter is applicable.

(s) Private Mortgage Insurance Policy. In the event that a private mortgage insurance policy is required by the applicable Agency, the Mortgage Loan has a valid and transferable private mortgage insurance policy. Unless the private mortgage insurance policy for a Mortgage Loan was cancelled at the request of the Mortgagor or automatically terminated, in either case in accordance with applicable law, all premiums have been paid and all provisions of such private mortgage insurance policy have been and are being complied with. Any Mortgage Loan subject to a primary mortgage insurance policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to pay the private mortgage insurance policy premium, if any, with respect to such Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage interest rate for the Mortgage Loan set forth in the related Asset Schedule is net of any such insurance premium.

(t) Optional Insurance. No single payment credit life insurance or other optional insurance product that has been considered “predatory” by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac has been obtained with the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan in connection with the Origination of such Mortgage Loan at the Origination Date.

(u) Insurance. All policies of insurance, of whatever type, required either by the applicable Agency in connection with the closing of the Mortgage Loan or by this Agreement, remain in full force and effect. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagors having engaged in, any act or omission that would impair the coverage, validity or binding effect of any such policies or that has resulted or will result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any applicable special hazard insurance policy, private mortgage insurance policy or bankruptcy bond, irrespective of the cause of such failure of coverage. In connection with the placement of any such insurance, no unlawful commission, unlawful fee, or other unlawful compensation has been or will be received by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(v) Mortgaged Property Undamaged; No Condemnation Proceedings. As of the related Purchase Date, there are no material uninsured casualty losses or material casualty losses

Exhibit B, Page 8

where coinsurance has been, or Seller has reason to believe will be, claimed by the insurance company or where the loss, exclusive of contents, is, or will be, materially greater than the recovery (less actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with such recovery) from the insurance carrier. No casualty insurance proceeds have been used by Seller to reduce Mortgage Loan balances or for any other purpose except to make repairs to the Mortgaged Property, except as allowed pursuant to applicable law and the Mortgage Loan documents. All damage with respect to which casualty insurance proceeds have been received by or through Seller has been properly repaired or is in the process of being repaired using such proceeds. There is no material damage to the Mortgaged Property from waste, fire, windstorm, flood, tornado, earthquake or earth movement, to Seller’s actual knowledge, hazardous or toxic substances or other casualty that would materially adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan. There is no proceeding pending or, to the Seller’s actual knowledge, threatened in writing for the partial or total condemnation of the Mortgaged Property that would adversely affect the Mortgage Loan.

(w) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements subject to the Mortgage that were considered in determining the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly within the project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property, all except those that are insured against by the title insurance policy referred to in clause (q) above and all improvements on the Mortgaged Property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision laws and ordinances.

(x) Appraisal. Unless the applicable Agency or HUD requires otherwise, the Asset File, the Loan Eligibility File and/or the Servicing File, as applicable, contains an appraisal or an underwriting property valuation using an automated valuation model of the related Mortgaged Property, or an Appraised Value Alternative, in each case, in a form acceptable to the applicable Agency, and in the case of an appraisal, made and signed, before the approval of the Mortgage Loan application, by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by Seller, who had no interest, direct or indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan and who met the minimum qualifications of the applicable Agency. Each appraisal of the Mortgage Loan was made in accordance with the requirements of Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the Origination Date of the Mortgage Loan.

(y) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property. The occupancy status of the Mortgaged Property is in accordance with the Agency Guidelines. All inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including certificates of occupancy, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities and no improvement located on or part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any zoning law or regulation.

(z) Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is located in the United States and consists of a single parcel or multiple contiguous parcels of real property with a

Exhibit B, Page 9

detached single family residence erected thereon, a townhouse or a two to four family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit, or an individual unit in a planned unit development or a de minimis planned unit development, or a Co-op Unit in a Co-op Project; provided that any condominium project or planned unit development generally conforms to the applicable Agency Guidelines regarding such dwellings. As of the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property was used for commercial purposes, and since the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been used for commercial purposes; provided that Mortgaged Properties that contain a home office shall not be considered as being used for commercial purposes as long as the entire Mortgaged Property has not been altered for commercial purposes and is not storing any chemicals or raw materials other than those commonly used for homeowner repair, maintenance and/or household purposes. The Mortgaged Property is not a mobile home or a Manufactured Home unless it secures a Manufactured Home Loan.

(aa) Environmental Matters. To Seller’s knowledge, (i) there is no pending action or proceeding directly involving any Mortgaged Property in which compliance with any environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue, and (ii) there exists no violation of any local, state or federal environmental law, rule or regulation with respect to the Mortgaged Property.

(bb) Unacceptable Investment. Seller has no actual knowledge of any specific circumstances or condition with respect to the Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or the Mortgagor’s credit standing that cause, or would reasonably be expected to cause, private institutional investors that invest in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan to regard the Mortgage Loan as an unacceptable investment or materially adversely affect the value or the marketability of the Mortgage Loan in comparison to similar loans.

(cc) Servicemembers Civil Relief Act. The Mortgagor has not notified Seller or any Subservicer, and Seller has no actual knowledge, of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act of 2003, as amended, or other similar state or federal law.

(dd) No Fraud. No fraud, material omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with respect to the Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of Seller, any Subservicer or any other Person involved in taking applications for, offering, arranging, assisting a consumer in obtaining, making, underwriting or closing of the Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgagor, any builder or developer or any appraiser. To Seller’s actual knowledge, the documents, instruments and agreements submitted for loan underwriting were not falsified and contain no untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the information and statements therein not misleading. Seller has reviewed all of the documents constituting the related Asset File and Loan Eligibility File and has made such inquiries as it deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set forth herein.

offered by the Mortgage Loan’s originator, the Mortgage Loan’s originator offered such lower-cost credit product to the Mortgagor.

(nn) Underwriting Methodology. With respect to delegated underwritten loans, the methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit for each Mortgage Loan does not rely solely on the extent of the Mortgagor’s equity in the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such extension of credit. The methodology employed objective criteria such as the Mortgagor’s income, assets, liabilities and the proposed mortgage payment in accordance with Agency Guidelines.

(oo) Points and Fees. No Mortgagor was charged “points and fees” (whether or not financed) in an amount greater than (i) One Thousand Dollars ($1,000), or (ii) five percent (5%) of the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan, whichever is greater. For purposes of this representation, such 5% limitation is calculated in accordance with Fannie Mae’s anti-predatory lending requirements as set forth in the Agency Guidelines and “points and fees” (x) include origination, underwriting, broker and finder fees and charges that the mortgagee imposed as a condition of making the Mortgage Loan, whether they are paid to the mortgagee or a third party, and (y) exclude bona fide discount points, fees paid for actual services rendered in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan (such as attorneys’ fees, notaries fees and fees paid for property appraisals, credit reports, surveys, title examinations and extracts, flood and tax certifications, and home inspections), the cost of mortgage insurance or credit-risk price adjustments, the costs of title, hazard, and flood insurance policies, state and local transfer taxes or fees, escrow deposits for the future payment of taxes and insurance premiums and other miscellaneous fees and charges which miscellaneous fees and charges, in total, do not exceed one- fourth percent (0.25%) of the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan.

(pp) Prepayment Penalties. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition of a penalty upon a prepayment before maturity: (i) the Mortgage Loan provides some benefit to the Mortgagor (e.g., a rate or fee reduction) in exchange for accepting such prepayment penalty, (ii) the Mortgage Loan’s originator had a written policy of offering the Mortgagor the option of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require payment of such a penalty, (iii) the prepayment penalty was adequately disclosed to the Mortgagor in the mortgage loan documents pursuant to applicable state, local and federal law, and (iv) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, neither Seller nor any Subservicer shall impose such prepayment premium in any instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated as the result of the Mortgagor’s default in making the loan payments.

(qq) Single Premium Credit Insurance Policies. No proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were paid on the Origination Date to purchase a single premium credit insurance policy (e.g., life, mortgage, disability, accident, unemployment, or health insurance product) or debt cancellation agreement through Seller in connection with the Origination of the Mortgage Loan

Exhibit B, Page 13

as a condition to the extension of credit. No proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were paid on the Origination Date to purchase single premium credit insurance policies or debt cancellation agreements as part of the Origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan.

The Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with all applicable Agency Guidelines. Seller has serviced the Mortgage Loan at all times since its origination.

(ss) Escrow Payments. With respect to escrow deposits and payments that Seller is entitled to collect, all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, Seller, and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All escrow payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law and the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage. As to any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an escrow, escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law. No escrow deposits or other charges or payments due under the Mortgage Note have been capitalized under any Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note.

(tt) Interest on Escrows. As of the related Purchase Date, Seller has credited to the account of the related Mortgagor under the Mortgage Loan all interest required to be paid by applicable law or by the terms of the related Mortgage Note on any escrow account. Evidence of such credit shall be provided to Administrative Agent upon request.

(uu) Escrow Analysis. Seller has properly conducted an escrow analysis for each escrowed Mortgage Loan in accordance with applicable law, to the extent required by applicable law. All books and records with respect to each Mortgage Loan comply in all material respects with applicable law and regulations, and have been adjusted to reflect the results of any required escrow analyses. Except as allowed by applicable law, no inflation factor was used in the escrow analysis. Seller has delivered notification to the Mortgagor(s) under each Mortgage Loan of all adjustments resulting from such escrow analyses.

(vv) Escrow Holdbacks. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to outstanding escrow holdbacks except those specifically identified by Seller or permitted in the Agency Guidelines.

Seller has promptly corrected any discrepancies regarding consumer addresses of which Seller has received notice.

No subservicing relationship shall be hereby created between You and Administrative Agent or Buyers.

Upon your receipt of written notification by Administrative Agent that an Event of Default has occurred under the Agreement (the “Default Notice”), you, as Subservicer, hereby agree to remit all payments or distributions made with respect to such Mortgage Loans, net of the servicing fees and advances reimbursements payable to you with respect thereto, immediately in accordance with Administrative Agent’s wiring instructions provided below, or in accordance with other instructions that may be delivered to you by Buyer:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Subservicing Agreement, in no event shall Buyer be liable for any fees, indemnities, costs, reimbursements or expenses incurred by You before receipt of such Event of Default Notice or otherwise owed to You in respect of the period of time before receipt of such Event of Default Notice; provided that the foregoing disclaimer shall not affect your ability to retain servicing fees and advances reimbursements in accordance with the third paragraph above.
