Each Foreign Buyer will provide each Seller with a new duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI no later than the earliest of (A) the end of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which the most recent applicable IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI was properly submitted to the Sellers and (B) the expiration of thirty (30) days after there is a “change in circumstances” with respect to such Foreign Buyer as defined in United States Treas. Reg. § 1.1441(e)(4)(ii)(D).

(ii) A Foreign Buyer shall not be entitled to receive (A) any Additional Amounts or “gross-up” of Taxes under this Agreement, or (B) any indemnification under Section 5(c) with respect to any Taxes imposed by the United States or with respect to any other liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising from or in respect of any Taxes withheld or deducted from, or imposed by the United States on, any payments under this Agreement, for any period with respect to which such Foreign Buyer fails to provide each of the Sellers with the appropriate IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or other relevant documentation required to be provided pursuant to this Section 5(d) (unless the failure to provide such applicable IRS Form is due solely to a change in any Requirement of Law of the United States prohibiting provision of the Form which occurs subsequent to the date on which a duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI was provided by Foreign Buyer to each Seller in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5(d)). If a Foreign Buyer becomes subject to, or bears the burden of imposition of, Taxes which such Foreign Buyer would not have become subject to or borne had it provided timely and valid IRS Forms to Sellers in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5(d), Sellers shall take such steps, subject to clause (B) below, as the Foreign Buyer may, in good faith, reasonably request be taken to assist such Foreign Buyer in recovering such Taxes, provided that, (A) any costs, expenses or other liabilities incurred or imposed on any party as a result of any such steps or actions taken by a Seller at the request of the Foreign Buyer shall be entirely for the account of, and promptly paid in full by, such Foreign Buyer, and (B) in no event shall any Seller be obligated hereunder to take any steps or actions requested by a Foreign Buyer to recover Taxes if, in Seller’s sole discretion, such steps or actions would or might have an adverse effect on Seller’s financial condition, business, legal positions, or relationships with any Governmental Authority.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival or any other agreement of Sellers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall require Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(f) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it intends, and agrees, for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, to treat and report each Transaction as indebtedness issued by one or more of the Sellers secured by the Purchased Loans and, consistent therewith, to treat and report the Purchased Loans as loans owned by such Sellers, in the absence of an Event of Default by Sellers that is not cured. All parties to this Agreement hereby agree to take no action inconsistent with the tax treatment and tax reporting of the Transactions and the Purchased Loans, as described above, unless and only to the extent required by applicable United States federal, state or local income or franchise tax law.

6. MARGIN MAINTENANCE

(a) If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Loans subject to all Transactions is less than the aggregate MV Margin Amount for all such Transactions, (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may, by notice to Sellers, require Seller in such Transactions to transfer to Buyer cash within the time period specified in clause (b) below, so that the cash and aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Loans will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate MV Margin Amount (such requirement, a “Margin Call”). Buyer shall deposit such cash into a non-interest bearing account until the next succeeding Repurchase Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may elect in its sole discretion to permit Sellers to transfer to Buyer additional Eligible Loans (“Additional Purchased Loans”) for no additional consideration or a combination of cash and Additional Purchased Loans, to cure a Margin Deficit, in either case within the time period set forth in clause (b) below.

(b) Notice required pursuant to Section 6(a) may be given by any means provided in Section 21 hereof. Any notice given shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, within twenty-four (24) hours. The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights under this Section 6, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. Sellers and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Sellers.

7. INCOME PAYMENTS

Where a particular term of a Transaction extends over the date on which Income is paid in respect of any Purchased Loan subject to that Transaction, such Income shall be the property of Buyer. The Sellers shall cause all Income to be deposited into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt by the Servicer. To the extent that no Default or Event of Default is then in existence, Buyer shall, or shall direct the Control Bank on the Repurchase Date following the date any Income is deposited in the Collection Account, to apply such Income on deposit in the Collection Account in the following order of priority: first, to pay to Servicer an amount equal to all outstanding servicing fees due and owing to Servicer as set forth on a schedule delivered by Servicer two (2) Business Days prior to such Repurchase Date; second, to pay to Buyer an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid Price Differential; third, to pay to Buyer an amount sufficient to eliminate any Margin Deficit; fourth, to pay to Buyer an amount equal to all outstanding fees and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the Program Documents; and fifth, any remaining amounts to Sellers. Buyer shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to the preceding sentences (A) to the extent that such action would result in the creation of a Margin Deficit, unless prior thereto or simultaneously therewith Sellers transfer to Buyer cash sufficient to eliminate such Margin Deficit, or (B) if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing at the time such Income is paid.

8. SECURITY INTEREST; BUYER’S APPOINTMENT AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

(a) Sellers and Buyer intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Loans (including, without limitation, the related Servicing Rights) and not loans from Buyer to Sellers secured by the Purchased Loans. However, in order to preserve Buyer’s rights under this Agreement in the event that a court or other forum recharacterizes the Transactions hereunder as other than sales, and as security for Sellers’ performance of all of their Obligations, each Seller hereby grants Buyer a perfected first priority security interest in all of such Seller’s rights, title and interest in and to the following property, whether now existing or hereafter acquired: (i) all Purchased Loans identified on a Purchase Notice delivered by Buyer to Sellers and Custodian from time to time, (ii) all related Loan Documents, including without limitation all promissory notes, (iii) any other collateral pledged or otherwise relating to such Purchased Loans, together with all files, material documents, instruments, surveys (if available), certificates, correspondence, appraisals, computer records, computer storage media, Loan accounting records and other books and records relating thereto, (iv) the Servicing Records, and the related Servicing Rights, (v) all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any Servicing Records or other documents which constitute a part of the Mortgage File or Servicing File, (vi) the Collection Account and all Income relating to such Purchased Loans, (vii) all interests in real property collateralizing any Purchased Loans, (viii) all other insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Purchased Loans or the related Mortgaged Property and all Insurance Proceeds and all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any of the foregoing, (ix) any purchase agreements or other agreements, contracts or any related takeout commitments relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing and all rights to receive documentation relating thereto, (x) all “accounts”, “chattel paper”, “commercial tort claims”, “deposit accounts”, “documents,” “equipment”, “general intangibles”, “goods”, “instruments”, “inventory”, “investment property”, “letter of credit rights”, and

“securities’ accounts” as each of those terms is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code and all cash and Cash Equivalents and all products and proceeds relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing, and (xi) any and all replacements, substitutions, distributions on or proceeds of any or all of the foregoing (collectively the “Purchased Items”).

Sellers acknowledge and agree that each of their rights with respect to the Purchased Items (including without limitation, any security interest a Seller may have in the Purchased Loans and any other collateral granted by such Seller to Buyer pursuant to any other agreement) are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer hereunder. Sellers further acknowledge that they have no rights to the Servicing Rights related to the Purchased Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a Seller or the Servicer is deemed to retain any residual Servicing Rights, such Seller and/or the Servicer, as applicable, grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Servicing Rights as indicated hereinabove. In addition, Sellers and Servicer each further grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in and to all Servicing Records and rights to receive Servicing Records or other documents that constitute a part of the Mortgage File or Servicing File with respect to any Purchased Loan, and all Income related to the Purchased Loans received by Servicer, and all rights to receive such Income, and all products, proceeds and distributions relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing (collectively, and together with the pledge of Servicing Rights in the immediately preceding sentence, the “Related Credit Enhancement”). The Credit Enhancement is hereby pledged as further security for Sellers’ Obligations to Buyer hereunder.

(b) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Buyer, and at the expense of Sellers, Sellers will promptly and duly execute and deliver, or will promptly cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments and documents and take such further action as Buyer may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the Purchased Items and the liens created hereby. Each such Seller also hereby authorizes Buyer to file any such financing or continuation statement without the signature of Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in any jurisdiction. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

(c) Neither Seller shall (i) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 12(m) hereof, (ii) change its name, identity or corporate structure (or the equivalent) or change the location where it maintains its records with respect to the Purchased Items, or (iii) reincorporate or reorganize under the laws of another jurisdiction unless it shall have given Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to Buyer all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as Buyer shall request and taken all other actions deemed reasonably necessary by Buyer to continue its perfected status in the Purchased Items with the same or better priority.

(d) Each Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Buyer and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Seller and in the name of such Seller or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation, protecting, preserving and realizing upon the Purchased Items, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation, to protect, preserve and realize upon the Purchased Items, to file such financing statement or statements relating to the

Purchased Items without such Seller’s signature thereon as Buyer at its option may deem appropriate, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Seller hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of such Seller, without assent by, but with notice to, such Seller, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

(i) in the name of such Seller, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any Purchased Items and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any Purchased Items whenever payable;

(ii) to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Purchased Items; and

(iii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Purchased Items to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct, including, without limitation, to send “goodbye” letters and Section 404 Notices on behalf of Sellers and Servicer; (B) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Purchased Items; (C) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Purchased Items; (D) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Purchased Items or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Purchased Items; (E) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against a Seller with respect to any Purchased Items; (F) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; and (G) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Purchased Items as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Sellers’ expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Purchased Items and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Seller might do.

Each Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. This power of attorney shall not revoke any prior powers of attorney granted by any Seller.

Each Seller also authorizes Buyer, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 19 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Purchased Items.

(e) The powers conferred on Buyer hereunder are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Purchased Items and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Sellers for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(f) If a Seller fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Program Documents and Buyer performs or complies, or otherwise causes performance or compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Buyer incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate, shall be payable by Sellers to Buyer on demand and shall constitute Obligations.

(g) Buyer’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Purchased Items in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Buyer deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Buyer nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Purchased Items or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Purchased Items upon the request of Sellers or otherwise.

(h) All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Purchased Items are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

(i) At Buyer’s sole option, exercisable prospectively or retrospectively with respect to the Purchased Loans in whole or in part, and without notice to Sellers or any other person, (i) the sale of the Purchased Loans to Buyer on each Purchase Date may be deemed a sale of a 100% participation interest, constituting 100% beneficial ownership, of the related Purchased Loans, in lieu of a sale to Buyer of the Purchased Loans themselves, and (ii) to such extent a Seller is deemed to retain legal title to the Purchased Loans solely to service or supervise the servicing thereof, this Agreement will be deemed the related participation agreement in such event.

Sellers shall give at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice to Buyer if such repurchase shall occur on any date other than the Repurchase Date.

If such release and termination gives rise to or perpetuates a Margin Deficit, Buyer shall notify Sellers of the amount thereof and prior to such release and termination Sellers shall thereupon satisfy the Margin Call in the manner specified in Section 6.

11. RELIANCE

With respect to any Transaction, Buyer may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to Sellers in acting upon, any request or other communication that Buyer reasonably believes to have been given or made by a person authorized to enter into a Transaction on any Seller’s behalf.

12. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that throughout the term of this Agreement with respect to each Seller, the Guarantor and the Servicer, as applicable, (each, a “Seller Party”):

(a) Existence. Each Seller Party (a) is a corporation, real estate investment trust or limited liability company as specified in this Agreement, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it was formed, as specified in this Agreement, (b) has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals, necessary to (i) own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, (ii) with respect to the Sellers, acquire, own, sell, assign, pledge and repurchase the Purchased Loans and (iii) with respect to the Servicer, service and administer the Purchased Loan, (c) is qualified to do business and is in good standing in all other jurisdictions in which the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except where failure so to qualify would not be reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance in all material respects with all Requirements of Law. PennyMac’s tax identification number is 00-0000000. PennyMac’s fiscal year is the calendar year. PMIT Holdings’s tax identification number is 00-0000000. PMIT Holdings’s fiscal year is the calendar year. No Seller Party has changed its name within the past twelve (12) months.

(b) Financial Condition. Each Seller Party has heretofore furnished to Buyer a copy of its audited consolidated balance sheets and the audited consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries, each as at December 31, 2009 with the opinion thereon of Deloitte & Touche LLP, a copy of which has been provided to Buyer. Each Seller Party has also heretofore furnished to Buyer the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for such Seller Party and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the one year period ending December 31, 2009, setting forth in comparative form the figures for the previous year, if applicable. All such financial statements are complete and correct in all material respects and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of such Seller Party and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations for the fiscal year ended on said date, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. Since December 31, 2009, there has been no development or event nor any prospective development or event which has had or should reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Seller Party has any material contingent liability or liability for taxes or any long term lease or unusual forward or long term commitment, which is not reflected in the foregoing statements or notes. Since the date of the financial statements and other information delivered to Buyer prior to the date of this Agreement, no Seller Party has sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any material part of its property or assets (except pursuant to the Program Documents) or acquired any property or assets (including Equity Interests of any other Person) that are material in relation to the financial condition of such Seller Party.

(c) Litigation. There are no actions, suits, arbitrations, investigations or proceedings pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against such Seller Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or affecting any of the property thereof before any Governmental Authority, (i) as to which individually or in the aggregate there is a reasonable likelihood of an adverse decision which would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) which questions the validity or enforceability of any of the Program Documents or any action to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, or (iii) which seeks to prevent the consummation of any Transaction.

(d) No Breach. Neither (a) the execution and delivery of the Program Documents, nor (b) the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated in compliance with the terms and provisions thereof will conflict with or result in a breach of the charter or by-laws of such Seller Party, or any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority, or other material agreement or instrument to which such Seller Party is a party or by which any Seller Party or any Seller Party’s property is bound or to which any of them or their property is subject, or constitute a default under any such material agreement or instrument, or (except for the Liens created pursuant to this Agreement) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of any Seller Party, pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.

(e) Action. Each Seller Party has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Documents to which it is a party; the execution, delivery and performance by such Seller Party of each of the Program Documents to which it is a party has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on its part; and each Program Document has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each Seller Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Seller Party, enforceable against such Seller Party in accordance with its terms.

(f) Approvals. No authorizations, approvals or consents of, and no filings or registrations with, any Governmental Authority, or any other Person, are necessary for the execution, delivery or performance by any Seller Party of the Program Documents to which it is a party or for the legality, validity or enforceability thereof, except for filings and recordings in respect of the Program Documents and the Liens created pursuant to this Agreement.

Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Sellers hereby expressly waive, to the extent permitted by law, any right Sellers might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Sellers also waive, to the extent permitted by law, any defense Sellers might otherwise have to the Obligations, arising from use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Purchased Loans and any other Purchased Items or from any other election of remedies. Sellers recognize that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

Sellers shall cause all sums received by it with respect to the Purchased Loans to be deposited to the Collection Account. Sellers shall be liable to Buyer for the amount of all expenses (plus interest thereon at a rate equal to the Post-Default Rate).

20. DELAY NOT WAIVER; REMEDIES ARE CUMULATIVE

No failure on the part of Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Buyer of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All rights and remedies of Buyer provided for herein are cumulative and in addition to any and all other rights and remedies provided by law, the Program Documents and the other instruments and agreements contemplated hereby and thereby, and are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by Buyer to exercise any of its rights under any other related document. Buyer may exercise at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default one or more remedies, as they so desire, and may thereafter at any time and from time to time exercise any other remedy or remedies.

21. NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS

Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, all notices, requests and other communications provided for herein and under the Custodial Agreement (including, without limitation, any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including, without limitation, by telex or telecopy or Electronic Transmission) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages hereof); or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except for notices given by Sellers under Section 3(b) (which shall be effective only on receipt), all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted (i) by Electronic Transmission and followed by written notice via overnight courier or (ii) by telex or telecopier or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

22. USE OF EMPLOYEE PLAN ASSETS

No assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of ERISA shall be used by either party hereto in a Transaction.

23. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXPENSES

(a) Each Seller agrees to hold Buyer, its Affiliates and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify any Indemnified Party against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party (collectively, the “Costs”) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, that, in each case, results from anything other than any Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Seller agrees to hold any Indemnified Party harmless from and indemnify such Indemnified Party against all Costs with respect to all Loans relating to or arising out of any violation or alleged violation of any environmental law, rule or regulation or any consumer credit laws, including without limitation laws with respect to unfair or deceptive lending practices and predatory lending practices, the Truth in Lending Act and/or the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, that, in each case, results from anything other than such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Party in connection with any Loan for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Loan, Sellers will save, indemnify and hold such Indemnified Party harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment

or reduction of liability whatsoever of the account debtor or obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by a Seller of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such account debtor or obligor or its successors from a Seller. Each Seller also agrees to reimburse any Indemnified Party as and when billed by such Indemnified Party for all such Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or the preservation of such Indemnified Party’s rights under this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel. Sellers hereby acknowledges that the obligations of Seller under this Agreement are recourse obligations of Sellers.

(b) Each Seller agrees to pay as and when billed by Buyer all of the out-of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, administration, enforcement and execution of, and any amendment, waiver, supplement or modification to, this Agreement, any other Program Document or any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith. Each Seller agrees to pay as and when billed by Buyer all of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including, without limitation, (i) all the reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of counsel to Buyer, and (ii) all the due diligence, inspection, testing and review (including but not limited to any asset level file review of any Loans and all on-going due diligence costs) and expenses incurred by Buyer with respect to Purchased Items under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, those costs and expenses incurred by Buyer pursuant to Sections 23, 39 and 44 hereof. Each Seller also agrees not to assert any claim against Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Program Documents, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

(c) If Sellers fail to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of Sellers by Buyer, in its sole discretion and Sellers shall remain liable for any such payments by Buyer. No such payment by Buyer shall be deemed a waiver of any of Buyer’s rights under the Program Documents.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Sellers hereunder, the covenants and obligations of Sellers contained in this Section 23 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the payment in full of the Repurchase Price and all other amounts payable hereunder and delivery of the Purchased Loans by Buyer against full payment therefor.

24. WAIVER OF REDEMPTION AND DEFICIENCY RIGHTS

Sellers hereby expressly waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, every statute of limitation on a deficiency judgment, any reduction in the proceeds of any Purchased Items as a result of restrictions upon Buyer or Custodian contained in the Program Documents or any other instrument delivered in connection therewith, and any right that it may have to direct the order in which any of the Purchased Items shall be disposed of in the event of any disposition pursuant hereto.

25. REIMBURSEMENT

All sums reasonably expended by Buyer in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy provided for herein shall be and remain Sellers’ obligation (unless and to the extent that a Seller is the prevailing party in any dispute, claim or action relating thereto). Sellers agree to pay, with interest at the Post-Default Rate to the extent that an Event of Default has occurred, the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Buyer and/or Custodian in connection with the preparation, negotiation, enforcement (including any waivers), administration and amendment of the Program Documents (regardless of whether a Transaction is entered into hereunder), the taking of any action, including legal action, required or permitted to be taken by Buyer and/or Custodian pursuant thereto, any “due diligence” or loan agent reviews conducted by Buyer or on its behalf or by refinancing or restructuring in the nature of a “workout.”

26. FURTHER ASSURANCES

Sellers agree to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to Buyer such additional assignments, acknowledgments, agreements, powers and instruments as are reasonably required by Buyer to carry into effect the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the other Program Documents, to perfect the interests of Buyer in the Purchased Items or to better assure and confirm unto Buyer its rights, powers and remedies hereunder and thereunder.

27. TERMINATION

This Agreement shall remain in effect until the Termination Date. However, no such termination shall affect Sellers’ outstanding obligations to Buyer at the time of such termination. Sellers’ obligations under Section 3(i), Section 5, Section 12, Section 13, Section 23 and Section 25 and any other reimbursement or indemnity obligation of Sellers to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any other Program Documents shall survive the termination hereof.

28. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of any Program Document is declared invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of the Program Documents, and each Program Document shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

29. BINDING EFFECT; GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (EXCEPT FOR SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

30. AMENDMENTS

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any provision of this Agreement may be modified or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed by Sellers, the Servicer and Buyer and any provision of this Agreement may be waived by Buyer.

31. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY

The Sellers hereby acknowledge and agree that they are jointly and severally liable to the Buyer for all representations, warranties, covenants, obligations and liabilities of each of the Sellers hereunder. The Sellers hereby further acknowledge and agree that (a) a Default or an Event of Default (including a Default or Event of Default relating to any of the Sellers) is hereby considered a Default or an Event of Default by each Seller, and (b) the Buyer shall have no obligation to proceed against one Seller before proceeding against the other Seller. The Sellers hereby waive any defense to their obligations under this Agreement based upon or arising out of the disability or other defense or cessation of liability of one Seller versus the other. A Seller’s subrogation claim arising from payments to Buyer shall constitute a capital investment in another Seller (1) subordinated to any claims of Buyer, and (2) equal to a ratable share of the Equity Interests in such Seller. Any notice delivered by Buyer to any Seller hereunder shall be deemed to have been delivered to both Sellers.

32. SURVIVAL

The obligations of Sellers under Sections 3(i), 5, 12, 13, 23 and 25 hereof and any other reimbursement or indemnity obligation of Sellers to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any other Program Document shall survive the repurchase of the Loans hereunder, the purchase of any Loans pursuant to a takeout commitment and the termination of this Agreement. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a request for a purchase, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived, by reason of purchasing any Loan, any Default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that Buyer may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time such purchase was made.

33. CAPTIONS

The table of contents and captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

34. COUNTERPARTS; ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. The parties agree that this Agreement, any documents to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement and any notices hereunder may be transmitted between them by e-mail and/or by facsimile. The parties intend that faxed signatures and electronically imaged signatures such as .pdf files shall constitute original signatures and are binding on all parties.

(B) CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH UNDER ITS SIGNATURE BELOW OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH BUYER SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(D) AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO XXX IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

36. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

37. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Each Seller hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Program Documents to which it is a party;

(b) Buyer has no fiduciary relationship to any Seller Party; and

38. HYPOTHECATION OR PLEDGE OF PURCHASED ITEMS

Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Loans and Purchased Items and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Loans and Purchased Items or otherwise selling, pledging, repledging, transferring, assigning, hypothecating, rehypothecating or otherwise conveying the Purchased Loans and Purchased Items. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Loans or Purchased Items delivered to Buyer by a Seller.

39. ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

(a) Sellers may assign any of their rights or obligations hereunder only with the prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer may assign or transfer to any bank or other financial institution that makes or invests in repurchase agreements or loans or any Affiliate of Buyer all or any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Documents.

(b) Buyer may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more entities (“Participants”) participating interests in this Agreement, its agreement to purchase Loans, or any other interest of Buyer hereunder and under the other Program Documents. In the event of any such sale by Buyer of participating interests to a Participant, Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement to Sellers shall remain unchanged, Buyer shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and Sellers shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Documents. Sellers agree that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Buyer under this Agreement; provided, that such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of set-off if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its participating interest to share with Buyer the proceeds thereof. Buyer also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3(h), 3(i) and 23 with respect to its participation in the Loans and Purchased Items outstanding from time to time; provided, that Buyer and all Participants shall be entitled to receive no greater amount in the aggregate pursuant to such Sections than Buyer would have been entitled to receive had no such transfer occurred.

(c) Buyer may furnish any information concerning the Seller Parties or any of their Subsidiaries in the possession of Buyer from time to time to assignees and Participants (including prospective assignees and Participants) only after notifying Sellers in writing and securing signed confidentiality statements (a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit H) and only for the sole purpose of evaluating assignments or participations and for no other purpose.

(d) Sellers agree to cooperate with Buyer in connection with any such assignment and/or participation, to execute and deliver replacement notes, and to enter into such restatements of, and amendments, supplements and other modifications to, this Agreement and the other Program Documents in order to give effect to such assignment and/or participation. Sellers further agrees to furnish to any Participant identified by Buyer to Seller copies of all reports and certificates to be delivered by Sellers to Buyer hereunder, as and when delivered to Buyer.

40. SINGLE AGREEMENT

Sellers and Buyer acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of each other. Accordingly, Sellers, Servicer and Buyer each agree (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, and (ii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by any of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transaction hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

41. INTENT

Sellers and Buyer intend that this Agreement and each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement,” as that term is defined in section 101(47)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, a “securities contract,” as that term is defined in section 741(7)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement,” as that term is defined in section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code; and that the pledge of the Related Credit Enhancement in Section 8(a) hereof is intended to constitute “a security agreement or 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.

Sellers and Buyer further intend that Buyer be entitled to, without limitation, the liquidation, termination, acceleration, setoff and non-avoidability rights afforded to parties such as Buyer to “repurchase agreements,” pursuant to sections 559, 362(b)(7) and 546(f) of the Bankruptcy Code; “securities contracts,” pursuant to sections 555, 362(b)(6) and 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code; and “master netting agreements,” pursuant to sections 561, 362(b)(27) and 546(j) of the Bankruptcy Code.

42. CONFIDENTIALITY

The Program Documents and their respective terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and transactions and notices thereunder, are proprietary to Buyer and shall be held by Sellers in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the consent of Buyer except for (i) disclosure to Sellers’ Affiliates, 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 or (ii) upon prior written notice to Buyer, disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body or (iii) when circumstances reasonably permit, any disclosures or filing required under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or state securities’ laws; provided that in the case of disclosure by any party pursuant to the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), Sellers shall take reasonable actions to provide Buyer with prior written notice; provided further that in the case of (iii), Sellers shall not file any of the Program Documents other than the Agreement and the Guaranty with the SEC or state securities office unless Sellers shall have 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 Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For this purpose, tax treatment and tax structure shall not include (i) the identity of any existing or future party (or any Affiliate of such party) to this Agreement or (ii) any specific pricing information or other commercial terms, including the amount of any fees, expenses, rates or payments arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

43. SERVICING

(a) Sellers and Servicer covenant to maintain or cause the servicing of the Purchased Loans to be maintained in conformity with Accepted Servicing Practices and pursuant to the related underlying Servicing Agreement. In the event that the preceding language is interpreted as constituting one or more servicing contracts, each such servicing contract shall terminate automatically upon the earliest of (i) the termination thereof by Buyer pursuant to subsection (d) below, (ii) thirty (30) days after the last Purchase Date of such Purchased Loan, (iii) a Default or an Event of Default, (iv) the date on which all the Obligations have been paid in full, or (v) the transfer of servicing to any entity approved by Buyer and the assumption thereof by such entity. Upon any such termination, Sellers and Servicer, as applicable, shall

comply with the requirements set forth in Section 13(hh) as to the delivery of the Servicing Records and the physical servicing of each Purchased Loan.

(b) During any period a Seller or Servicer is servicing any Purchased Loans, (i) Sellers and Servicer agree that Buyer is the owner of the Servicing Rights and all servicing records, including but not limited to any and all servicing agreements, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of such Loans (the “Servicing Records”), and (ii) Servicer grants Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees and rights relating to the Purchased Loans and all Servicing Records to secure the obligation of Sellers, Servicer or any Subservicer to service in conformity with this Section 43 and any other obligation of Sellers and/or Servicer to Buyer. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Servicer covenants to hold such Servicing Records in trust for Buyer and to safeguard, or cause each Subservicer to safeguard, such Servicing Records and to deliver them, or cause any such Subservicer to deliver them to the extent permitted under the related Servicing Agreement promptly to Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) at Buyer’s request or otherwise as required by operation of Section 13(hh) hereof. It is understood and agreed by the parties that prior to an Event of Default, Servicer may retain the servicing fees with respect to the Purchased Loans.

(c) If any Loan that is proposed to be sold on a Purchase Date is serviced by a servicer other than Seller or Servicer (including any interim servicer) (a “Subservicer”), or if the servicing of any Purchased Loan is to be transferred to a Subservicer, Sellers shall provide a copy of the related servicing agreement and an Instruction Letter executed by such Subservicer (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) to Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to such Purchase Date or transfer date, as applicable, which Servicing Agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to Buyer. In addition, Sellers shall have obtained the prior written consent of Buyer for such Subservicer to subservice the Loans.

(d) In addition to the rights provided in Section 43(a), Buyer shall have the right, exercisable at any time in its sole discretion, upon written notice, to terminate any Seller, Servicer or any Subservicers as servicer or subservicer, respectively, and any related Servicing Agreement. With respect to any Servicing Rights, any such termination shall be effective as of the date that occurs thirty (30) days after the last Purchase Date. Upon the effectiveness of any such termination, Servicer shall transfer or shall cause Subservicer to transfer such servicing with respect to such Purchased Loans to Buyer or its designee, at no cost or expense to Buyer. Sellers and Servicer, as applicable, agree to cooperate with Buyer in connection with the transfer of servicing.

(e) Buyer shall have the right in its sole discretion to appoint a third party to perform due diligence with respect to Servicer’s servicing facilities at any time. Servicer shall cooperate with Buyer and/or its designees to provide access to Servicer’s servicing facilities including without limitation its books and records with respect to Servicer’s servicing portfolio and the Purchased Loans. In addition to the foregoing, Servicer shall permit Buyer to inspect upon reasonable prior written notice at a mutually convenient time, Servicer’s servicing facilities, as the case may be, for the purpose of satisfying Buyer that Servicer has the ability to service the Loans as provided in this Agreement and in any Servicing Agreement. In addition, with respect to any Subservicer which is not an Affiliate of Servicer, Servicer shall use its best efforts to enable Buyer to inspect the servicing facilities of such Subservicer and to cause such Subservicer to cooperate with Buyer and/or its designees in connection with any due diligence performed by Buyer and/or such designees in accordance with this Section 43(e). Seller and Buyer further agree that all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with any due diligence or inspection performed pursuant to this Section 43(e) shall be paid by Buyer.

44. PERIODIC DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW

Sellers and Servicer acknowledge that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties, covenants and specifications made hereunder or under any other Program Document, or otherwise, and Sellers agree that upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice to a Seller or Servicer (provided that upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, no such prior notice shall be required), Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, make copies of, and make extracts of, the Mortgage Files, the Servicing Records and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Loans in the possession, or under the control, of such Seller, Servicer and/or Custodian. Sellers and Servicer also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Sellers acknowledge that Buyer shall purchase Loans from Sellers based solely upon the information provided by Sellers to Buyer in the Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right, at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Loans, including, without limitation, ordering new credit reports, new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate the related Loan. Buyer may underwrite such Loans itself or engage a third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Sellers agree to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Loans in the possession, or under the control, of a Seller. In addition, Buyer has the right to perform continuing Due Diligence Reviews (including, without limitation, operational, legal, corporate and background due diligence) of Sellers, Servicer and its Affiliates, directors, and their respective Subsidiaries and the officers, employees and significant shareholders thereof. Sellers and Buyer further agree that all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Buyer’s activities pursuant to this Section 44 shall be paid by Sellers.

45. SET-OFF

In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer provided by this Agreement and by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Sellers, any such notice being expressly waived by Sellers to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Sellers hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all Property and deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of any Seller. Buyer may set-off cash, the proceeds of the liquidation of any Purchased Items and all other sums or obligations owed by Buyer or its Affiliates to any Seller against all of Sellers’ obligations to Buyer or its Affiliates, whether under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the parties or between any Seller and any Affiliate of Buyer, or otherwise, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s right to recover any deficiency. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Sellers after any such set-off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

46. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement and the other Program Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto and thereto and supersede any and all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings relating to the matters provided for herein and therein. No alteration, waiver, amendments, or change or supplement hereto shall be binding or effective unless the same is set forth in writing by a duly authorized representative of each party hereto.
