W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Buyer and Seller have entered into that certain Master Repurchase Agreement and Securities Contract, dated as of April 28, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof and as may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified hereafter, the “Repurchase Agreement”), along with the related Third Amended and Restated Addendum dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time hereafter, the “Addendum,” and together with the Repurchase Agreement, the “Master Repurchase Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, Buyer and Seller wish to amend certain provisions of the Master Repurchase Agreement in order to tailor the contract as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Seller and Buyer agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Amendments to Repurchase Agreement.
(a) Annex A to the Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of “Net Operating Income” in its entirety as follows:
“Net Operating Income” means, with respect to Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, pre-tax net income from continuing operations for the applicable period then being measured (starting with the Test Period ending June 30, 2018), determined in accordance with GAAP, but excluding (i) the change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights and (ii) gains and losses associated with hedging transactions in respect of mortgage servicing rights.
(b) Schedule 1 to the Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows.
i. Paragraph (e) of Schedule 1 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(e) Hazard Insurance. The Mortgaged Property is insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, and to the extent required by Seller as of the date of origination consistent with the Guide, against earthquake and other risks insured against by Persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged Property, in an amount of 100% of the insurable value of the improvements as established by the property insurer, unless otherwise restricted by state law; or 100% of replacement cost or the combined unpaid principal balance of the mortgage (loan amount), if it equals 80% of the insurable value of the improvements, and consistent with the amount that would have been required as of the date of origination in accordance with the Guide. If any portion of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by any federal Governmental Authority as having special flood hazards, and flood insurance is available, a flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines of the Federal Emergency Management Agency is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan as long as it equals 80% of the insurable value of the improvements, (2) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1974. All such insurance policies (collectively, the “hazard insurance policy”) contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller, its successors and assigns (including, without limitation, subsequent owners of the Mortgage Loan), as mortgagee, and may not be reduced, terminated or canceled without thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the mortgagee. No such notice has been received by Seller. All premiums on such insurance policy have been paid. The related Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by, to the best of Seller’s knowledge, any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.
ii. Paragraph (h) of Schedule 1 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

iii. Paragraph (aa) of Schedule 1 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
