liability company ("Cresleigh LLC"), CRESLEIGH BANCORP OF TENNESSEE LLC, a
Tennessee limited liability company ("Cresleigh Bancorp"), CRESLEIGH FINANCIAL

Cresleigh Bancorp and Cresleigh Inc. are collectively referred to as the
"Borrower"), and RESIDENTIAL FUNDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
("Lender").
A. Borrower has requested certain financing from Lender.
B. Borrower has asked Lender to amend and restate the Existing Agreement
(as defined below) and to set forth the terms and conditions upon
which Lender will provide certain financing to Borrower.
C. Lender has agreed to amend and restate the Existing Agreement to
provide that financing to Borrower subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement.
D. Subject to Borrower's satisfaction of the conditions set forth in

this Agreement is August 31, 2002.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:
1. THE CREDIT
1.1. THE WAREHOUSING COMMITMENT
On the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement,
including Exhibit H, Lender agrees to make Warehousing Advances to Borrower from
the Closing Date to the Business Day immediately preceding the Warehousing
Maturity Date, during which period Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The total aggregate principal
amount of all Warehousing Advances outstanding at any one time may not exceed
the Warehousing Commitment Amount. While a Default or Event of Default exists,
Lender may refuse to make any additional Warehousing Advances to Borrower.
Effective as of the Closing Date, all outstanding loans made under the Existing
Agreement are deemed to be Warehousing Advances made under this Agreement. All
Warehousing Advances under this Agreement constitute a single indebtedness, and
all of the Collateral is security for the Warehousing Note and the Sublimit Note
and for the performance of all of the Obligations. Warehousing Advances will be
made to Cresleigh LLC, Cresleigh Bancorp or to Cresleigh Inc., as requested by
Cresleigh LLC, Cresleigh Bancorp or Cresleigh Inc., respectively, will be deemed
made to or for the benefit of Cresleigh LLC and Cresleigh Bancorp and Cresleigh
Inc., jointly and severally, and each of Cresleigh LLC, Cresleigh Bancorp and
Cresleigh, Inc. are obligated to repay any Warehousing Advances made to
Cresleigh LLC, Cresleigh Bancorp or to Cresleigh Inc. under the Warehousing
Commitment. With respect to its obligation to repay Warehousing Advances made to
any other Borrower, each Borrower agrees to the terms set forth in Exhibit I.
Page 1-1
1.2. EXPIRATION OF WAREHOUSING COMMITMENT
The Warehousing Commitment expires on the earlier of ("Warehousing Maturity
Date"): (a) March 27, 2004, as such date may be extended in writing by Lender,
in its sole discretion, on which date the Warehousing Commitment will expire of
its own term and the Warehousing Advances will become due and payable without
the necessity of Notice or action by Lender; and (b) the date the Warehousing
Commitment is terminated and the Warehousing Advances become due and payable
under Section 10.2.
1.3. WAREHOUSING NOTE/SUBLIMIT NOTE
Warehousing Advances, other than Warehousing Advances made against REO
Properties, are evidenced by Borrower's promissory note, payable to Lender on
the form prescribed by Lender ("Warehousing Note"). Warehousing Advances made
against REO Properties are evidenced by Borrower's promissory note, payable to
Lender on the form prescribed by Lender ("Sublimit Note"). The term "Warehousing
Note" and "Sublimit Note" as used in this Agreement includes all amendments,
restatements, renewals or replacements of the original Warehousing Note, the

Page 1-2
2. PROCEDURES FOR OBTAINING ADVANCES
2.1. WAREHOUSING ADVANCES
To obtain a Warehousing Advance under this Agreement, Borrower must deliver to
Lender either a completed and signed request for a Warehousing Advance on the
then current form approved by Lender, or an Electronic Advance Request, together
with a list of the Mortgage Loans for which the request is being made and a
signed RFConnects Pledge Agreement sent by facsimile ("Warehousing Advance
Request"), not later than (i) in the case of Electronic Advance Requests, 2:30
p.m. on the Business Day, and (ii) in all other cases, 1 Business Day before the
Business Day on which Borrower desires the Warehousing Advance. Subject to the
delivery of a Warehousing Advance Request and the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, Borrower may obtain a Warehousing Advance
under this Agreement upon compliance with the procedures set forth in this
Section and in the applicable Exhibit B, including delivery to Lender of all
required Collateral Documents. Lender's current form of Warehousing Advance
Request is set forth in Exhibit A. Upon not less than 3 Business Days' prior
Notice to Borrower, Lender may modify its form of Warehousing Advance Request,
RFConnects Pledge Agreement and any other Exhibit or document referred to in
this Section to conform to current legal requirements or Lender practices and,
as so modified, those Exhibits and documents will become part of this Agreement.
END OF ARTICLE 2

3. INTEREST, PRINCIPAL AND FEES
3.1. INTEREST
3.1 (a) Except as provided in Sections 3.1(d) and 3.1(e), Borrower must pay
interest on the unpaid amount of each Warehousing Advance from the date
the Warehousing Advance is made until it is paid in full at the
Interest Rate specified in Exhibit H.
3.1 (b) As long as no Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower is entitled
to receive a benefit in the form of an "Earnings Credit" on the portion
of the Eligible Balances maintained in time deposit accounts with a
Designated Bank, and Borrower is entitled to receive a benefit in the
form of an "Earnings Allowance" on the portion of the Eligible Balances
maintained in demand deposit accounts with a Designated Bank. Any
Earnings Allowance will be used first and any Earnings Credit will be
used second as a credit against Miscellaneous Fees and Charges
(including Designated Bank Charges), and against other fees payable to
Lender under this Agreement, including Warehousing Fees, Wire Fees,
Warehousing Commitment Fees,Non-Usage Fees, and Loan Package Fees, and
may be used, at Lender's option, to reduce accrued interest. Any
Earnings Allowance not used during the month in which the benefit was
received will be accumulated and must be used within 6 months of the
month in which the benefit was received. As long as no Default or Event
of Default exists, any Earnings Credit not used during the month in
which the benefit was received will be used to provide a cash benefit
to Borrower. Any Earnings Credit retained by Lender as a result of a
Default or Event of Default will be applied to the payment of
Borrower's Obligations in the order Lender determines in its sole
discretion. The Earnings Credit and the Earnings Allowance for any
month will be determined by Lender in its sole discretion and Lender's
determination of those amounts is conclusive and binding absent
manifest error. In no event will the benefit received by Borrower
exceed the Depository Benefit.
Either party to this Agreement may terminate the benefits provided for
in this Section effective immediately upon Notice to the other party,
if the terminating party determines (which determination is conclusive
and binding on the other party, absent manifest error) at any time that
any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or decree or any
interpretation or administration of such law, rule, regulation, order
or decree by any governmental authority charged with its interpretation
or administration, or compliance by such party with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, makes it unlawful or impossible for the party sending the
Notice to continue to offer or receive the benefits provided for in
this Section. No Notice is required for a termination of benefits as a
result of a Default or Event of Default.
3.1 (c) Lender computes interest on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed in a year of 360 days. Borrower must pay interest monthly in
arrears, not later than 9 days after the date of Lender's invoice or,
if applicable, 2 days after the date of Lender's account analysis
statement, commencing with the first month following the Closing Date
and on the Warehousing Maturity Date.
3.1 (d) If, for any reason Borrower repays a Warehousing Advance on the same
day that it was made by Lender, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender an
administrative fee equal to 1 day of interest on that Advance at the
Interest Rate that would otherwise be applicable under Exhibit H.
Borrower must pay all administrative fees within 9 days after the date
of Lender's invoice or, if applicable, within 2 days of the date of
Lender's account analysis statement.
Page 3-1
3.1 (e) After an Event of Default occurs and upon Notice to Borrower by Lender,
the unpaid amount of each Warehousing Advance will bear interest at the
Default Rate until paid in full.
3.1 (f) Lender will adjust the rates of interest provided for in this Agreement
as of the effective date of each change in the applicable index.
Lender's determination of such rates of interest as of any date of
determination are conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.
3.2. INTEREST LIMITATION
Lender does not intend, by reason of this Agreement, the Warehousing Note, the
Sublimit Note or any other Loan Document, to receive interest in excess of the
amount permitted by applicable law. If Lender receives any interest in excess of
the amount permitted by applicable law, whether by reason of acceleration of the
maturity of this Agreement, the Warehousing Note, the Sublimit Note or
otherwise, Lender will apply the excess to the unpaid principal balance of the
Warehousing Advances and not to the payment of interest. If all Warehousing
Advances have been paid in full and the Warehousing Commitment has expired or
has been terminated, Lender will remit any excess to Borrower. This Section
controls every other provision of all agreements between Borrower and Lender and
is binding upon and available to any subsequent holder of the Warehousing Note
or the Sublimit Note.
3.3. PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS
3.3 (a) Borrower must pay Lender the outstanding principal amount of all
Warehousing Advances on the Warehousing Maturity Date.
3.3 (b) Except as provided in Section 3.1(d), Borrower may prepay any portion
of the Warehousing Advances without premium or penalty at any time.
3.3 (c) Borrower must pay to Lender, without the necessity of prior demand or
Notice from Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to cause the Funding
Bank to charge Borrower's Operating Account for, the amount of any
outstanding Warehousing Advance against a specific Pledged Asset upon
the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:
(1) One (1) Business Day elapses from the date a Warehousing
Advance was made if the Pledged Loan to be funded by that
Warehousing Advance is not closed and funded.
(2) Ten (10) Business Days elapse without the return of a
Collateral Document delivered by Lender to Borrower under a
Trust Receipt for correction or completion.
(3) On the date on which a Pledged Loan is determined to have been
originated based on untrue, incomplete or inaccurate
information or otherwise to be subject to fraud, whether or
not Borrower had knowledge of the misrepresentation,
incomplete or incorrect information or fraud, on the date on
which Borrower knows, has reason to know, or receives Notice
from Lender, that (A) one or more of the representations and
warranties set forth in Article 9 were inaccurate or
incomplete in any material respect on any date when made or
deemed made, or (B) Borrower has failed to perform or comply
with any covenant, term or condition set forth in Article 9.
Page 3-2
(4) On the date the Pledged Loan or a Lien prior to the Mortgage
securing repayment of the Pledged Loan is defaulted and
remains in default for a period of 60 days or more.
(5) Upon the sale, other disposition or prepayment of any Pledged
Asset or, with respect to a Pledged Loan included in an
Eligible Mortgage Pool, upon the sale or other disposition of
the related Agency Security.
(6) One (1) Business Day immediately preceding the date scheduled
for the foreclosure or trustee sale of the premises securing a
Pledged Loan.
3.3 (d) Upon telephonic or written Notice to Borrower by Lender, Borrower must
pay to Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to cause the Funding Bank
to charge Borrower's Operating Account for, the amount of any
outstanding Warehousing Advance against a specific Pledged Asset upon
the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:
(1) For any Pledged Loan, the Warehouse Period elapses.
(2) Forty-five (45) days elapse from the date a Pledged Loan was
delivered to an Investor or Approved Custodian for examination
and purchase or for inclusion in a Mortgage Pool, without the
purchase being made or an Eligible Mortgage Pool being
initially certified, or upon rejection of a Pledged Loan as
unsatisfactory by an Investor or Approved Custodian.
(3) Seven (7) Business Days elapse from the date a Wet Settlement
Advance was made against a Pledged Loan, other than a
Repurchased Mortgage Loan or a Nonperforming Mortgage Loan,
without receipt by Lender of all Collateral Documents relating
to the Pledged Loan.
(4) With respect to any Pledged Loan, any of the Collateral
Documents, upon examination by Lender, are found not to be in
compliance with the requirements of this Agreement or the
related Purchase Commitment.
(5) Three (3) Business Days after the mandatory delivery date of
the related Purchase Commitment if the specific Pledged Loan
or the Pledged Security backed by that Pledged Loan has not
been delivered under the Purchase Commitment prior to such
mandatory delivery date, or on the date the related Purchase
Commitment expires or is terminated, unless, in each case, the
Pledged Loan or Pledged Security is eligible for delivery to
another Investor under a comparable Purchase Commitment.
3.3 (e) In addition to the payments required pursuant to Sections 3.3(a),
3.3(c) and 3.3(d), if the principal amount of any Pledged Loan is
prepaid in whole or in part while a Warehousing Advance is outstanding
against the Pledged Loan, Borrower must pay to Lender, without the
necessity of prior demand or Notice from Lender, and Borrower
authorizes Lender to cause the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's
Operating Account for, the amount of the prepayment, to be applied
against the Warehousing Advance.
3.3 (f) The proceeds of the sale or other disposition of Pledged Assets must be
paid directly by the Investor to the Cash Collateral Account. Borrower
must give Notice to Lender in writing or by telephone or by RFConnects
Delivery to Lender (and if by telephone, followed promptly by written
Notice) of the Pledged Assets for which proceeds have been received.
Upon receipt of Borrower's Notice, Lender will apply any proceeds
deposited into the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of the
Warehousing
Page 3-3
Advances related to the Pledged Assets identified by Borrower in its
Notice, and those Pledged Assets will be considered to have been
redeemed from pledge. Lender is entitled to rely upon Borrower's
affirmation that deposits in the Cash Collateral Account represent
payments from Investors for the purchase of the Pledged Assets
specified by Borrower in its Notice. If the payment from an Investor
for the purchase of Pledged Assets is less than the outstanding
Warehousing Advances against the Pledged Assets identified by Borrower
in its Notice, Borrower must pay to Lender, and Borrower authorizes
Lender to cause the Funding Bank to charge Borrower's Operating Account
in an amount equal to that deficiency. As long as no Default or Event
of Default exists, Lender will return to Borrower any excess payment
from an Investor for Pledged Assets.
3.3 (g) Lender reserves the right to revalue any Pledged Loan. Borrower must
pay to Lender, without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from
Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to cause the Funding Bank to
charge Borrower's Operating Account for, any amount required after any
such revaluation to reduce the principal amount of the Warehousing
Advance outstanding against the revalued Pledged Loan to an amount
equal to the Advance Rate for the applicable type of Eligible Loan or
REO Property multiplied by the Fair Market Value of the Mortgage Loan.
3.4. BUYDOWNS
Borrower may prepay a portion of the Warehousing Advances outstanding against
Subprime Mortgage Loans (a "Buydown") upon Notice to Lender not later than (a)
1:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately preceding the Business Day on which
Borrower desires to make a Buydown in the amount of $10,000,000 or more or (b)
1:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which Borrower desires to make a Buydown in an
amount less than $10,000,000. Each Buydown must be in an amount not less than
$5,000, and Buydowns may not exceed, in the aggregate, the amount outstanding
against Subprime Mortgage Loans. A Buydown is a reduction in the aggregate
amount of the Warehousing Advances outstanding against Subprime Mortgage Loans,
but does not represent the prepayment of any particular Warehousing Advance, and
does not entitle Borrower to the release of any Collateral. Lender may apply
Buydowns to reduce interest payable by Borrower on outstanding Warehousing
Advances in any order that Lender determines in its sole discretion. Unless a
Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower may reborrow all or any portion of
a Buydown upon Notice to Lender not later than (m) 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Business Day on which Borrower desires to reborrow
$10,000,000 or more or (n) 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day that Borrower desires
to reborrow an amount less than $10,000,000. If Lender receives Buydowns or a
combination of Buydowns and payments of Warehousing Advances that exceed the
aggregate principal balance of the Warehousing Advances outstanding against
Subprime Mortgage Loans (an "Excess Buydown"), as long as no Default or Event of
Default exists, Borrower may reborrow all or any portion of an Excess Buydown
upon Notice to Lender not later than (y) 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Business Day on which Borrower desires to reborrow
$10,000,000 or more or (z) 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day that Borrower desires
to reborrow an amount less than $10,000,000. Alternatively, Lender may, in its
sole discretion, re-advance to Borrower all or any portion of an Excess Buydown
by causing the Funding Bank to credit the Operating Account in that amount.
Lender has no obligation to pay or otherwise provide to Borrower any interest,
dividends or other benefits on an Excess Buydown.
3.5. WAREHOUSING COMMITMENT FEES
Borrower must pay Lender a fee ("Warehousing Commitment Fee") in the amount of
0.125% per annum on $100,000,000 of the Warehousing Commitment Amount. The
Warehousing Commitment Fee is payable quarterly in advance. Lender computes the
Warehousing Commitment Fee on the basis of the actual number of days in each
Calendar Quarter and a year
Page 3-4
of 360 days. Should Borrower use in excess of $100,000,000 of the Warehousing
Commitment Amount, Borrower will pay a Warehousing Commitment Fee of 0.125% on
the actual amount used monthly in arrears. On the Closing Date, Borrower must
pay the prorated portion of the Warehousing Commitment Fee due from the Closing
Date to the last day of the current Calendar Quarter. After the Closing Date,
Borrower must pay the Warehousing Commitment Fee within 9 days after the date of
Lender's invoice or, if applicable, within 2 days after the date of Lender's
account analysis statement. If the date set forth in clause (a) of the
definition of Warehousing Maturity Date occurs on a day other than the last day
of a Calendar Quarter, Borrower must pay the prorated portion of the Warehousing
Commitment Fee due from the beginning of the then current Calendar Quarter to
and including that date. Borrower is not entitled to a reduction in the amount
of the Warehousing Commitment Fee if (a) the Warehousing Commitment Amount is
reduced or (b) the Warehousing Commitment is terminated at the request of
Borrower or as a result of an Event of Default. If the Warehousing Commitment
terminates at the request of Borrower or as a result of an Event of Default,
Borrower must pay, on the date of termination, a Warehousing Commitment Fee on
the Warehousing Commitment Amount in effect immediately prior to termination,
for the period from the date of termination to and including the date set forth
in clause (a) of the definition of Warehousing Maturity Date on the date of such
termination. Lender's determination of the Warehousing Commitment Fee for any
period is conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.
3.6. NON-USAGE FEES
At the end of each month during the term of this Agreement, Lender will
determine the average usage of the Warehousing Commitment by calculating the
arithmetic daily average of the Warehousing Advances outstanding during such
month ("Used Portion"). Lender will then subtract the Used Portion from the
arithmetic daily average of the Warehousing Commitment Amount outstanding during
such month, and the result, if positive, will be known as the "Unused Portion."
Borrower agrees to pay to Lender a fee ("Non-Usage Fee") in the amount of 0.125%
per annum of the Unused Portion during such month, except that no Non-Usage Fee
will be charged for any month in which the Used Portion is equal to or greater
than 50% of the Warehousing Commitment Amount. The Non-Usage Fee is payable
monthly, in arrears. Lender computes the Non-Usage Fee on the basis of the
actual number of days in the month and a year of 360 days. Borrower must pay the
Non-Usage Fee within 9 days after of the date of Lender's invoice or account
analysis statement. If the date set forth in clause (a) of the definition of

liability to Borrower or any Person, continue to release its security

Pledged Loan to an Investor, Approved Custodian, pool custodian or
other party, (2) in connection with the sale of a Pledged Loan by
Lender while an Event of Default exists, the amount paid to Lender in a

Warehousing Advances, interest or other Obligations are outstanding and unpaid,
Lender will release its security interest and will deliver all Collateral in its
possession to Borrower at Borrower's expense. Borrower's acknowledgement or

of this Agreement is a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so
returned, and Lender is discharged from any liability or responsibility for that
Collateral.

10.2. REMEDIES
10.2 (a) If an Event of Default described in Section 10.1 (g) occurs with
respect to Borrower, the Warehousing Commitment will automatically
terminate and the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on
the Warehousing Note, the Sublimit Note and all other Obligations will
automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand or
other Notice or requirements of any kind, all of which Borrower
expressly waives.
10.2 (b) If any other Event of Default occurs, Lender may, by Notice to
Borrower, terminate the Warehousing Commitment and declare the
Obligations to be immediately due and payable.
Page 10-2
10.2 (c) If any Event of Default occurs, Lender may also take any of the
following actions:
(1) Foreclose upon or otherwise enforce its security interest in
any Lien on the Collateral to secure all payments and
performance of the Obligations in any manner permitted by law
or provided for in the Loan Documents.
(2) Notify all obligors under any of the Collateral that the
Collateral has been assigned to Lender (or to another Person
designated by Lender) and that all payments on that Collateral
are to be made directly to Lender (or such other Person);
settle, compromise or release, in whole or in part, any
amounts any obligor or Investor owes on any of the Collateral
on terms acceptable to Lender; enforce payment and prosecute
any action or proceeding involving any of the Collateral; and
where any Collateral is in default, foreclose on and enforce
any Liens securing that Collateral in any manner permitted by
law and sell any property acquired as a result of those
enforcement actions.
(3) Prepare and submit for filing Uniform Commercial Code
amendment statements evidencing the assignment to Lender or
its designee of any Uniform Commercial Code financing
statement filed in connection with any item of Collateral.
(4) Act, or contract with a third party to act, at Borrower's
expense, as servicer or subservicer of Collateral requiring
servicing, and perform all obligations required under any
Collateral, including Servicing Contracts and Purchase
Commitments.
(5) Require Borrower to assemble and make available to Lender the
Collateral and all related books and records at a place
designated by Lender.
(6) Enter onto property where any Collateral or related books and
records are located and take possession of those items with or
without judicial process; and obtain access to Borrower's data
processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating
to the Collateral and use all of the foregoing and the
information contained in the foregoing in any manner Lender
deems necessary for the purpose of effectuating its rights
under this Agreement and any other Loan Document.
(7) Before the disposition of the Collateral, prepare it for
disposition in any manner and to the extent Lender deems
appropriate.
(8) Exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under
the Uniform Commercial Code of Minnesota or other applicable
law, including selling or otherwise disposing of all or any
portion of the Collateral at one or more public or private
sales, whether or not the Collateral is present at the place
of sale, for cash or credit or future delivery, on terms and
conditions and in the manner as Lender may determine,
including sale under any applicable Purchase Commitment.
Borrower waives any right it may have to prior notice of the
sale of all or any portion of the Collateral to the extent
allowed by applicable law. If notice is required under
applicable law, Lender will give Borrower not less than 10
days' notice of any public sale or of the date after which any
private sale may be held. Borrower agrees that 10 days' notice
is reasonable notice. Lender may, without notice or
publication, adjourn any public or private sale one or more
times by announcement at the time and place fixed for the
sale, and the sale may be held at any time or place announced
at the adjournment. In the case of a sale of all or any
portion of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery,
the Collateral sold on those terms may be retained by Lender
until the purchaser pays the
Page 10-3
selling price or takes possession of the Collateral. Lender
has no liability to Borrower if a purchaser fails to pay for
or take possession of Collateral sold on those terms, and in
the case of any such failure, Lender may sell the Collateral
again upon notice complying with this Section.
(9) Instead of or in conjunction with exercising the power of sale
authorized by Section (8), Lender may proceed by suit at law
or in equity to collect all amounts due on the Collateral, or
to foreclose Lender's Lien on and sell all or any portion of
the Collateral pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction.
(10) Proceed against Borrower on the Warehousing Note and the
Sublimit Note.
(11) Retain all excess proceeds from the sale or other disposition
of the Collateral, and apply them to the payment of the
Obligations under Section 10.3.
10.2 (d) Lender will incur no liability as a result of the commercially
reasonable sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the
Collateral at any public or private sale or other disposition. Borrower
waives (to the extent permitted by law) any claims it may have against
Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the
Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price
that Lender might have obtained at a public sale, or was less than the
aggregate amount of the outstanding Warehousing Advances, accrued and
unpaid interest on those Warehousing Advances, and unpaid fees, even if
Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer the
Collateral to more than one offeree. Borrower agrees that any sale of
Collateral under the terms of a Purchase Commitment, or any other
disposition of Collateral arranged by Borrower, whether before or after
the occurrence of an Event of Default, will be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner.
10.2 (e) Borrower acknowledges that Mortgage Loans are collateral of a type that
is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations and that
Mortgage-backed Securities are collateral of a type that is customarily
sold on a recognized market. Borrower waives any right it may have to
prior notice of the sale of Pledged Securities, and agrees that Lender
may purchase Pledged Loans and Pledged Securities at a private sale of
such Collateral.
10.2 (f) Borrower specifically waives and releases (to the extent permitted by
law) any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal that Borrower
has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or
adopted after the date of this Agreement, and any right to require
Lender to (1) proceed against any Person, (2) proceed against or
exhaust any of the Collateral or pursue its rights and remedies against
the Collateral in any particular order, or (3) pursue any other remedy
within its power. Lender is not required to take any action to preserve
any rights of Borrower against holders of mortgages having priority to
the Lien of any Mortgage or Security Agreement included in the
Collateral or to preserve Borrower's rights against other prior
parties.
10.2 (g) Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance any sums or do any act or
thing necessary to uphold or enforce the Lien and priority of, or the
security intended to be afforded by, any Mortgage or Security Agreement
included in the Collateral, including payment of delinquent taxes or
assessments and insurance premiums. All advances, charges, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
incurred or paid by Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy
conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement of this Agreement,
together with interest on those amounts at the Default Rate, from the
time paid by Lender until repaid by Borrower, are deemed to be
Page 10-4
principal outstanding under this Agreement, the Warehousing Note and
the Sublimit Note.
10.2(h) No failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any right, power
or remedy provided in this Agreement or under any other Loan Document,
at law or in equity, will operate as a waiver of that right, power or
remedy. No single or partial exercise by Lender of any right, power or
remedy provided under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at law
or in equity, precludes any other or further exercise of that right,
power, or remedy by Lender, or Lender's exercise of any other right,
power or remedy. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower waives all
defenses based on the statute of limitations to the extent permitted by
law. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided
at law or in equity.
10.2(i) Borrower grants Lender a license or other right to use, without charge,
Borrower's computer programs, other programs, labels, patents,
copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names,
trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any property of a
similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for
sale and selling any of the Collateral and Borrower's rights under all
licenses and all other agreements related to the foregoing inure to
Lender's benefit until the Obligations are paid in full.
10.3. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS
Lender may apply the proceeds of any sale, disposition or other enforcement of
Lender's Lien on all or any portion of the Collateral to the payment of the
Obligations in the order Lender determines in its sole discretion. From and
after the indefeasible payment to Lender of all of the Obligations, any
remaining proceeds of the Collateral will be paid to Borrower, or to its
successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. If
the proceeds of any sale, disposition or other enforcement of the Collateral are
insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of that sale, disposition or other
enforcement and payment in full of all Obligations, Borrower is liable for the
deficiency.
10.4. LENDER APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT
Borrower appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution,
for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, the
Warehousing Note, the Sublimit Note and the other Loan Documents and taking any
action and executing any instruments that Lender deems necessary or advisable to
accomplish that purpose. Borrower's appointment of Lender as attorney-in-fact is
irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Lender may give notice of its Lien on the Collateral to any Person,
either in Borrower's name or in its own name, endorse all Pledged Loans or
Pledged Securities payable to the order of Borrower, change or cause to be
changed the book-entry registration or name of subscriber or Investor on any
Pledged Security, prepare and submit for filing Uniform Commercial Code
amendment statements with respect to any Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements filed in connection with any item of Collateral or receive, endorse
and collect all checks made payable to the order of Borrower representing
payment on account of the principal of or interest on, or the proceeds of sale
of, any of the Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities and give full discharge for
those transactions.
Page 10-5
10.5. RIGHT OF SET-OFF
If Borrower defaults in the payment of any Obligation or in the performance of
any of its duties under the Loan Documents, Lender may, without Notice to or
demand on Borrower (which Notice or demand Borrower expressly waives), set-off,
appropriate or apply any property of Borrower held at any time by Lender, or any
indebtedness at any time owed by Lender to or for the account of Borrower,
against the Obligations, whether or not those Obligations have matured.

Agreement, all communications required or permitted to be given or made under
this Agreement ("Notices") must be in writing and must be sent by manual
delivery, overnight courier or United States mail (postage prepaid), addressed
as follows (or at such other address as may be designated by it in a Notice to
the other):

All periods of Notice will be measured from the date of delivery if delivered
manually or by facsimile, from the first Business Day after the date of sending
if sent by overnight courier or from 4 days after the date of mailing if sent by
United States mail, except that Notices to Lender under Article 2 and Section
3.3 (f) shall be deemed to have been given only when actually received by
Lender. Borrower authorizes Lender to accept Borrower's bailee pledge
agreements, Warehousing Advance Requests, shipping requests, wire transfer
instructions and security delivery instructions transmitted to Lender by
facsimile or RFConnects Delivery, and those documents, when transmitted to
Lender by facsimile or by RFConnects Delivery, have the same force and effect as
the originals.
11.2. REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES; INDEMNITY
Borrower must: (a) pay Lender a document production fee in connection with the
preparation and negotiation of this Agreement; (b) pay such additional
documentation production fees as Lender may require and all out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of Lender, including reasonable fees, service charges and
disbursements of counsel to Lender (including allocated costs of internal
counsel), in connection with the amendment, enforcement and administration of
this Agreement, the Warehousing Note, the Sublimit Note and other Loan Documents
and the making, repayment and payment of interest on the Warehousing Advances;
(c) indemnify, pay, and hold harmless Lender and any other holder of the
Warehousing Note and the Sublimit Note from and against, all present and future
stamp, documentary and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters
and save Lender and any other holder of the Warehousing Note and the Sublimit
Note harmless from and against all liabilities with respect to or resulting from
any delay or omission to pay such taxes; and (d) indemnify, pay and hold
harmless Lender and all of its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or
agents and any subsequent holder of the Warehousing Note and the Sublimit Note
(collectively called the "Indemnitees") from and against all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements of every kind
Page 11-1
or nature (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the
Indemnitees (including allocated costs of internal counsel) in connection with
any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not the
Indemnitees have been designated as parties to such proceeding) that may be
imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitees in any manner
relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Warehousing Note, the Sublimit
Note or any other Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, the Warehousing Note, the Sublimit Note and the other Loan Documents
("Indemnified Liabilities"), except that Borrower has no obligation under this
Agreement with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of any such Indemnitees. To the extent that the
undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless as set forth in the preceding
sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public
policy, Borrower must contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay
and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all
Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. The
agreement of Borrower contained in this Article survives the expiration or
termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Warehousing Note
and the Sublimit Note. Attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred in enforcing,
or on appeal from, a judgment under this Agreement are recoverable separately
from and in addition to any other amount included in such judgment, and this
clause is intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement
and to survive and not be merged into such judgment.
11.3. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
All financial statements and reports furnished to Lender under this Agreement
must be prepared in accordance with GAAP (except for the implementation of FASB
91) applied on a basis consistent with that applied in preparing the financial
statements as at the end of and for Borrower's most recent fiscal year (except
to the extent otherwise required to conform to good accounting practice). Lender
acknowledges and consents to the fact that Borrower has not and does not intend
to implement FASB 91 for its own account; notwithstanding, Borrower must report
to Lender, as a line item within the financial statements and compliance
certificate due each month under Section 7.2, an adjustment to reflect the
impact that FASB 91 would have on such financial statements.
11.4. TERMS BINDING UPON SUCCESSORS; SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS
The terms and provisions of this Agreement are binding upon and inure to the
benefit of Borrower, Lender and their respective successors and assigns. All of
Borrower's representations, warranties, covenants and agreements survive the
making of any Warehousing Advance, and except where a longer period is set forth
in this Agreement, remain effective for as long as the Warehousing Commitment is
outstanding or there remain any Obligations to be paid or performed.
11.5. ASSIGNMENT
Borrower cannot assign this Agreement. Lender may at any time, without Notice to
or the consent of Borrower, transfer or assign, in whole or in part, its
interest in this Agreement, the Warehousing Note and the Sublimit Note along
with Lender's security interest in any of the Collateral, and any assignee of
Lender may enforce this Agreement, the Warehousing Note, the Sublimit Note and
its security interest in the Collateral assigned.
Page 11-2
11.6. AMENDMENTS
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may not be
amended, modified or supplemented unless the amendment, modification or
supplement is set forth in a writing signed by both Borrower and Lender.
11.7. GOVERNING LAW
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are governed by the laws of the
State of Minnesota, without reference to its principles of conflicts of laws.
11.8. PARTICIPATIONS
Lender may at any time sell, assign or grant participations in, or otherwise
transfer to any other Person ("Participant"), all or part of the Obligations.
Without limiting Lender's exclusive right to collect and enforce the
Obligations, Borrower agrees that each participation will give rise to a
debtor-creditor relationship between Borrower and the Participant, and Borrower
authorizes each Participant, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to
proceed directly by right of setoff, banker's lien, or otherwise, against any
assets of Borrower that may be held by that Participant. Borrower authorizes
Lender to disclose to prospective and actual Participants all information in

estate in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of any other
Borrower's liability, resulting from the operation of any present or
future provision of the bankruptcy laws or any other statute or
regulation, or the dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency, or
reorganization of any other Borrower; (d) the merger or consolidation
of any other Borrower, or any sale or transfer by any other Borrower of
all or part of its assets or property; (e) any claim such Borrower may
have against any other Borrower or any other Obligor, including any
claim of contribution; (f) the release, in whole or in part, of any
other guarantor (if more than one), any other Borrower or any other
Obligor; (g) any other action or circumstance which (with or without
notice to or knowledge of such Borrower) might in any manner or to any
extent vary the risks of such Borrower or otherwise constitute a legal
or equitable discharge or defense, it being understood and agreed by
each Borrower that its obligations for the Other Borrower Debt shall
not be discharged except by the full payment and performance of the
Other Borrower Debt.
6. The Lender shall have the right to determine how, when and
what application of payments and credits, if any, whether derived from
a single Borrower or from any other source, shall be made on the
Obligations and any other indebtedness owed by any Borrower and/or any
other Obligor to the Lender.
7. The obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall continue to
be effective, or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at
any time the performance or the payment, as the case may be, in whole
or in part, of any of the Other Borrower Debt is rescinded or must
otherwise be restored or returned by the Lender (as a preference,
fraudulent conveyance or otherwise) upon the insolvency, bankruptcy,
dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower or any other
person or upon or as a result of the appointment of a custodian,
receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to
any Borrower or any other Person, or any substantial part of its
property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
If an Event of Default shall at any time have occurred and be
continuing or shall exist and declaration of default or acceleration
under or with respect to the Other Borrower Debt shall at such time be
prevented by reason of the pendency against any Borrower or any other
Person of a case or proceeding under a bankruptcy or insolvency law,
each Borrower agrees that its obligations for the Other Borrower Debt
shall be deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated with
the same effect as if such obligations had been declared in default and
accelerated in accordance with their respective terms and each Borrower
shall forthwith perform or pay, as the case may be, as required
hereunder in accordance with the terms hereunder without further notice
or demand.
8. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other
rights that he may now or hereafter acquire against any other Borrower
that arises from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of
such Borrower's obligations for the Other Borrower Debt, including any
right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification,
any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Lender against
any other Borrower or any collateral that the Lender now has or
hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises
in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right
to take or receive from any other Borrower directly or indirectly, in
cash or other property or by set-off or in any manner, payment or
security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall
be paid to any Borrower in violation of the preceding sentence and the
Other Borrower Debt shall not have been paid and performed in full,
such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Borrower for the
benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lender and shall forthwith be
paid to the Lender to be credited and applied to the Other Borrower
Debt, whether matured or unmatured. Notwithstanding the blanket waiver
of subrogation rights as set forth above, each Borrower hereby
specifically acknowledges that any subrogation rights which it may have
against any other Borrower or any collateral that the Lender now has or
hereafter acquires may be destroyed by a nonjudicial foreclosure of the
collateral. This may give such Borrower a defense to a deficiency
judgment against it. Such Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such
defense. Each Borrower acknowledges that it will receive direct and
indirect benefits from the arrangements
15-51
contemplated by the Agreement and the Note and that the waivers set
forth in this Section are knowingly made in contemplation of such
benefits.
9. No postponement or delay on the part of the Lender in the
enforcement of any right with respect to the Obligations of any
Borrower, including, without limitation, the Other Borrower Debt, shall
constitute a waiver of such right and all rights of the Lender
hereunder shall be cumulative and not alternative and shall be in
addition to any other rights granted to the Lender in any other
agreement or by law.
10. Any indebtedness of any Borrower now or hereafter held by any
other Borrower is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of the
Borrowers to the Lender, and such indebtedness of any Borrower to any
other Borrower shall, if the Lender so requests, be collected, enforced
and received by the Borrower to which it is owed as trustee for the
Lender and be paid over to the Lender on account of the indebtedness of
any other Borrower to the Lender.
