BACKGROUND

The Borrower wishes to obtain financing from time to time to provide funding for the origination or acquisition of certain Eligible Servicing Rights (as defined herein), which Eligible Servicing Rights shall secure Loans (as defined herein) to be made by the Lender hereunder.

The Lender has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to provide such financing to the Borrower.

Accordingly, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE II

LOANS, BORROWING, PREPAYMENT

Section 2.01. Loans. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Lender shall make loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Available Facility Amount (each such loan, a “Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time. The Lender shall distribute the proceeds of such Loan to the Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Funding Date in accordance with Section 2.03.

Section 2.02. Note.

(a) The Loans made by the Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.02(a) hereto (the “Note”), dated the date hereof, payable to the Lender in a principal amount not to exceed an amount equal to the Available Facility Amount as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.

(b) The date, amount, and interest rate of each Loan made by the Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of the Note, noted by the Lender on the grid attached to the Note or any continuation thereof, provided, that failure of the Lender to make any such recordation or notation shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower to make a payment when due of any amount hereunder or under the Note in respect of the Loans.

Section 2.03. Borrower Electronic Files and Funding Requests.

(a) On any Funding Notice Date prior to the Wind Down Date, the Borrower may request the Lender to make a Loan on the Funding Date specified in the related Borrower Funding Request by delivering to the Lender an irrevocable Borrower Funding Request no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Funding Notice Date. The amount of any Loan requested pursuant to a Borrower Funding Request shall be not greater than the related Available Loan Amount and, with respect to the Initial Borrower Funding request, shall not be less than $10 million. The Borrower may request a Funding Date on any Business Day; provided, however, a Funding Date that involves the addition of new Collateral may not fall on any of the five (5) last Business Days in any calendar month unless otherwise agreed by Lender. Any Borrower Funding Request that relates to the addition of new Collateral shall include an Electronic File describing all Eligible Servicing Rights that constitute the Collateral hereunder.

(b) Regardless whether the Borrower intends to deliver a Borrower Funding Request during any calendar month, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender on the fifteenth (15^th) calendar day of each month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day) (any such day, a “Collateral Reporting Date”), an Electronic File with respect to all Eligible Servicing Rights that constitute the Collateral hereunder, which shall include all updates to the Collateral since the date of the preceding Electronic File.

(c) In Lender’s determination of Collateral Value for any of the Servicing Rights hereunder, it shall apply the MSR Value of the Servicing Rights in a related Borrowing Base Report. Any excess of the amount funded on such Loan over the Collateral Value shall result in a Borrowing Base Deficiency as set forth in Section 2.08(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.03, the Lender shall have the right to determine MSR Value at any time in its sole good faith discretion.

(d) By delivering a Borrower Funding Request, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender that, after taking into account the amount of the requested Loan, all conditions precedent to such Loan specified in Section 5.02 have been satisfied.

Section 2.04. Borrowing Base Reports. With respect to each Funding Date, the Lender shall determine the MSR Value of the Eligible Servicing Rights to be pledged as security for a Loan on such Funding Date and shall communicate such determination by providing Borrower with a Borrowing Base Report prior to such Funding Date. For purposes of preparing each Borrowing Base Report, the Lender shall calculate the Collateral Value of the Eligible Servicing Rights described in the Relevant Electronic File.

Section 2.05. Interest. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for each day during a related Interest Period at a per annum rate equal to the product of (x) the outstanding principal balance of such Loan on such day, multiplied by (y) the sum of (i) the applicable LIBOR Rate for such day and (ii) the Applicable Margin. Interest shall be payable on each Monthly Settlement Date in arrears with respect to each Loan through the final day of each Interest Period (regardless whether such day is a Business Day), such amount to be payable on each Monthly Settlement Date. The Lender shall determine the LIBOR Rate for each Loan, which may be reset on a daily basis, as set forth in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” and provide notice of such determination to the Borrower. The Lender shall also calculate the amount of interest or other amounts due to be paid by the Borrower from time to time hereunder (including in connection with any prepayment or repayment of Loans permitted hereunder) and shall provide a written statement thereof to the Borrower at least two Business Days prior to the due date of such payments (or the relevant repayment or prepayment after having received a notice thereof); provided, that failure to provide such statements on a timely basis shall not relieve the Borrower of the obligation to pay any interest and principal due on the applicable payment date (based upon its good faith calculation of the amount due, such amount to be promptly reconciled after receipt of a subsequent statement from the Lender) and other such amounts hereunder promptly upon receipt of such statement.

Section 2.06. Increased Capital Costs. If Lender determines in its sole discretion that any Change in Law or any change in accounting rules regarding capital requirements has the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital under this Agreement as a consequence of such Change in Law or change in accounting rules, then from time to time Borrower will compensate Lender for such reduced rate of return suffered as a consequence of such Change in Law or change in accounting rules on terms similar to those imposed by Lender. Further, if due to the introduction of, any change in, or the compliance by Lender with (i) any eurocurrency reserve requirement, or (ii) the interpretation of any law, regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority whether or not having the force of law, there shall be an increase in the cost to Lender as a consequence of the Loans or other advances of funds made by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Facility Documents relating to fundings or commitments under this Agreement, then Borrower shall, from time to time and upon demand by Lender, compensate Lender for such increased costs, and such amounts shall be deemed a part of the Obligations hereunder. Lender shall provide Borrower with notice as to any such Change in Law, change in accounting rules or change in compliance promptly following Lender’s receipt of actual knowledge thereof.

Section 2.07. Alternate Rate of Interest. If on any Business Day, the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (a) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate; or (b) that the LIBOR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining its Loan; or (c) that it has become unlawful for it to honor its obligation to make or maintain Loans hereunder using the LIBOR Rate, or maintaining its Loans (or its Loan) included in any advance, then the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrower by telephone, facsimile, or other electronic means as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any Borrower Funding Request that requests that Lender make a new Loan, subject to the timely approval of the Borrower after receipt of notice of such revised rate, at a rate per annum that the Lender determines in its reasonable discretion adequately reflects the cost to the Lender of making or maintaining the Loan.

Section 2.08. Mandatory Repayment of Loans.

(a) On each Loan Repayment Date (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day) from and after the Wind Down Date, and continuing until the Outstanding Aggregate Loan Amount shall be reduced to zero, the Borrower shall repay an amount equal to at least one-twelfth (1/12) of the Outstanding Aggregate Loan Amount as of the Wind Down Date with respect to all Loans and all other amounts due under this Agreement. Loans may be prepaid in accordance with the terms of Section 2.09 hereof and, to the extent prepaid, provided the Wind Down Date shall not have occurred, may be re-borrowed hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof (including satisfaction of all conditions precedent contained in Section 5.02). Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts owing under the Facility shall be immediately due and payable on the Termination Date.

(b) If, on any Business Day (a “Borrowing Base Shortfall Day”), the Lender provides written notice to the Borrower that the Lender has determined in its sole reasonable discretion based on the Borrowing Base Report most recently delivered by the Lender pursuant to Section 2.04 that the Outstanding Aggregate Loan Amount on such day exceeds the lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base and (ii) the Available Facility Amount on such day (such circumstance, a “Borrowing Base Deficiency”), the Borrower (i) on the same day if the Lender notifies Borrower by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) of such Borrowing Base Deficiency, or (ii) if the notice is received later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time), then within one (1) Business Day after the Borrowing Base Shortfall Day, shall repay outstanding Loans (including accrued Interest thereon), in an amount equal to the amount of the Borrowing Base Deficiency specified in the notice provided to the Borrower by the Lender (such requirement a “Margin Call”).

Section 2.09. Optional Prepayment. The Borrower may, at its option, prepay any Loan advanced hereunder in full or in part on any date, but not more than once per month; provided, however, that the Borrower shall be permitted at any time, without limitation, to prepay any Loan in connection with a Margin Call (any such date, an “Optional Prepayment Date”). Any such prepayment received by the Lender by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Optional Prepayment Date shall be applied by the Lender on such Business Day. Any such prepayment received by the Lender after 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Optional Prepayment Date shall be applied by the Lender on the following Business Day. For the avoidance of doubt, any optional prepayment in full shall not result in the termination of this Agreement unless such termination is declared in writing by the Borrower, acting in its discretion.

ARTICLE III

PAYMENTS; COMPUTATIONS; TAXES; FEES

Section 3.01. Payments and Computations, Etc.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly stated herein, all amounts to be paid or deposited hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in lawful money of the United States of America in same day funds.

(b) The Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay interest on all amounts (including principal, interest and fees) due but not paid on the date such payment is due hereunder as provided herein, for the period from, and including, such due date until, but excluding, the date paid, at the applicable Default Rate, payable on demand; provided, however that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

(c) All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable.

(d) The Borrower agrees that the principal of and interest on the Loans shall be recourse obligations of the Borrower.

(e) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim.

Section 3.02. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto imposed by any Governmental Authority therewith or thereon, excluding income taxes, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes or any other tax imposed on net income by the United States, a state or a foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which the Lender is organized or of its applicable lending office, or a state or foreign jurisdiction with respect to which Lender has a present or former connection (other than any connection arising from executing, delivering, being party to, engaging in any transaction pursuant to, performing its obligations under or enforcing any Facility Document), or any political subdivision thereof (collectively, such non-excluded taxes are hereinafter called “Taxes”), all of which shall be paid by Borrower for its own account not later than the date when due. If Borrower is required by law or regulation to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder, it shall: (a) make such deduction or withholding, (b) pay the amount so deducted or withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority not later than the date when due, (c) deliver to the Lender, promptly, original tax receipts and other evidence satisfactory to Lender of the payment when due of the full amount of such Taxes; and (d) except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 3(d) below, pay to the Lender such additional amounts (including all taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on such additional amounts) as may be necessary so that the Lender receives, free and clear of all Taxes, a net amount equal to the amount it would have received under this Agreement, as if no such deduction or withholding had been made.

(b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including, without limitation, mortgage recording taxes, transfer taxes and similar fees) imposed by any taxing authority that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (“Other Taxes”).

(c) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender for the full amount of Taxes (including additional amounts with respect thereto) and Other Taxes, and the full amount of taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses arising thereon or with respect thereto) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, provided that Lender shall have provided Borrower with evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, of payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be.

(d) Any Lender that either (i) is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia or (ii) whose name does not include “Incorporated,” “inc.,” “Corporation,” “Corp.,” “P.C.,” “insurance company,” or “assurance company” (a “Foreign Purchaser”) shall provide Borrower with original properly completed and duly executed United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying that such Person is either (1) entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which eliminates or

(2) otherwise fully exempt from (2) United States withholding tax under Sections 1441 through 1442 of the Code on payments to it or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States in either case, on or prior to the date upon which each such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender. Each Foreign Lender will resubmit the appropriate form eliminating withholding tax on payments to it on the earliest of (A) the third anniversary of the prior submission, or (B) on or before the expiration of thirty (30) days after there is a “change in circumstances” with respect to such Person as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.1441-1(e)(4)(ii)(D). For any period with respect to which the Foreign Lender has failed to provide Borrower with the appropriate form or other relevant document (x) as expressly required under this Section 3(d) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law, or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided under the first sentence of this Section 3(d)) or (y) otherwise as required to establish exemption from United States withholding under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, such Person shall not be entitled to “gross-up” of Taxes under Section 3(d) or indemnification under Section 3(c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States which are imposed because of such failure; provided, however that should a Foreign Lender, which is otherwise exempt from a withholding tax, become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, Borrower shall take such steps as such Foreign Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Foreign Lender to recover such Taxes.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival or any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 3 shall require Lender to make available any of their tax returns or other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(f) The Lender shall (A) promptly notify the Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (B) cooperate, in its reasonable discretion and at Borrower’s expense, with Borrower to mitigate any requirement of Applicable Law of any jurisdiction in which the Borrower may be required to withhold or deduct any taxes from amounts payable to Lender hereunder.

Section 3.03. Fees and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel not to exceed $100,000) incurred in connection with the execution of this Agreement (and any amendments thereto) and the Facility Documents; provided that such limitation on fees and expenses of Lender’s counsel shall not apply to (i) any amendment or renewal of, or waiver of any provision of, this Agreement or any other Facility Document or (ii) any document executed after the Closing Date in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

Section 4.02. Provisions Regarding Pledge of Xxxxxx Xxx Servicing Rights to Be Included In Financing Statements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents, the security interest of the Lender created hereby with respect to the Xxxxxx Mae Servicing Rights is subject to the following provisions to be included in each financing statement filed in respect hereof (or any variation required by Xxxxxx Xxx):

“The security interest described in this financing statement is subject and subordinate to all rights, powers, and prerogatives of Xxxxxx Xxx under and in connection with (i) the terms and conditions of that certain Acknowledgment Agreement, with respect to the Security Interest, by and among Xxxxxx Mae, PennyMac Corp.

Section 4.03. Authorization of Financing Statements. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to file any financing or continuation statements required to perfect, protect, or more fully evidence the Lender’s security interest in the Collateral granted hereunder. The Lender will notify the Borrower of any such filing (but the failure to deliver such notice shall not prejudice any rights of the Lender under this Section 4.03).

Section 4.04. Lender’s Appointment as Attorney In Fact.

(a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Lender 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 the Borrower and in the name of the Borrower or in its own name, from time to time in the Lender’s discretion, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, for the limited purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement (or any Servicing Contracts), to take any action on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to the Acknowledgement Agreements and 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 (or any Servicing Contracts) to the extent such actions are permitted to be taken by the Lender under the Acknowledgement Agreements, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby gives the Lender the power and right, on behalf of the Borrower, without assent by, but with notice to, the Borrower, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following (subject to limitations contained in each Acknowledgement Agreement):

(i) in the name of the Borrower or 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 under any mortgage insurance or with respect to any other Collateral 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 the Lender for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any such mortgage insurance or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Lender or as the Lender shall direct; (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 Collateral; (C) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (D) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (E) in connection with the above, to give such discharges or releases as the Lender may deem appropriate; and (F) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Lender were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Lender’s option and the Borrower’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Lender deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Lender’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as the Borrower might do;

(iii) perform or cause to be performed, the Borrower’s obligations under any Servicing Contract to the extent permitted by the related Acknowledgement Agreement.

The Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. The power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable but shall terminate upon release of the Lender’s security interest as provided in Section 4.05.

(b) The Borrower also authorizes the Lender, at any time and from time to time, to execute, in connection with the sale provided for in Section 8.02(c) hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral; provided that the exercise of such powers are in accordance with the Acknowledgement Agreements.

(c) The powers conferred on the Lender are solely to protect the Lender’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Lender to exercise any such powers. The Lender shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Lender nor any of its officers, directors, or employees shall be responsible to the Borrower for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided that the Lender shall exercise such powers only in accordance with the Acknowledgement Agreements.

Section 4.05. Release of Security Interest. Upon termination of this Agreement and repayment to the Lender of all Obligations and the performance of all obligations under the Facility Documents, the Lender shall release its security interest in any remaining Collateral; provided that if any payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervener or conservator of, or a trustee or similar officer for the Borrower or any substantial part of its Property, or otherwise, this Agreement, all rights hereunder and the Liens created hereby shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, until such payments have been made.

(b) Valid and Binding Obligations. This Agreement, the Facility Documents and every other document to be executed by a Borrower Party in connection with this Agreement is and will be legal, valid, binding and subsisting obligations of such Borrower Party, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except that (A) the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and (B) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

(c) Noncontravention. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and Facility Documents are in the ordinary course of business of each Borrower Party and will not conflict with, result in the breach of or violate any provision of the charter or by-laws of the related Borrower Party or result in the breach of any provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement, indenture, loan or credit agreement or other instrument to which a Borrower Party, the Collateral or any of a Borrower Party’s Property is or may be subject to, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which a Borrower Party, the Collateral or a Borrower Party’s Property is subject.

(d) Legal Proceeding. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, or before or by any court, public board or body pending or, to a Borrower Party’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting any Borrower Party (or, to Borrower’s knowledge, any basis therefor) wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would adversely affect the validity of the Collateral or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Facility Documents or any agreement or instrument to which a Borrower Party is a party and which is used or contemplated for use in the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, would adversely affect the proceedings of a Borrower Party in connection herewith, or would or could materially and adversely affect any Borrower Party’s ability to carry out its obligations hereunder.

(e) Government and Agency Approvals. No authorization, consent, approval, or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any court, governmental authority or regulatory body or other Person domestic or foreign, including Xxxxxx Xxx or HUD, is required for any Borrower Party’s due execution, delivery or performance of any Facility Document to which it is a party except for (i) consents that have been obtained in connection with transactions contemplated by the Facility Documents, (ii) filings to perfect the security interest created by this Agreement, and (iii) authorizations, consents, approvals, filings, notices, or other actions the failure to make could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Solvency. Each Borrower Party is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Loan hereunder and, after giving effect to each such Loan, each Borrower Party will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business. Each Borrower Party does not intend to incur, nor believes that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. Neither Borrower Party is contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of any Borrower Property or any of its assets.

(g) Fraudulent Conveyance. The amount of consideration being received by Borrower after giving effect to each Loan by the Lender constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for such Loan. Borrower is not pledging any Collateral with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

Neither this Agreement nor any representations and warranties or information relating to any Borrower Party that any Borrower Party has delivered or caused to be delivered to Lender, including, but not limited to, all documents related to this Agreement, the Facility Documents or each Borrower Party’s financial statements, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein or herein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Since the furnishing of such documents or information, there has been no change, nor any development or event involving a prospective change that would render any of such documents or information untrue or misleading in any material respect.

Each Borrower Party has timely filed all federal and state tax returns that are required to be filed by it and has paid all taxes, including any assessments received by it, to the extent that such taxes have become due (other than for taxes that are being contested in good faith and for which it has established adequate reserves).

(l) No Adverse Actions. No Borrower Party has received a notice from any Agency indicating any adverse fact or circumstance in respect of the Borrower which adverse fact or circumstance may reasonably be expected to entitle such Agency, as the case may be, to terminate the Borrower with cause or with respect to which such adverse fact or circumstance has caused such Agency to threaten to terminate, or consider the termination of, the Borrower in such notice.

(n) Agency Set Off Rights. No Borrower Party has actual notice, including any notice received from any Agency, or any reason to believe, that, other than in the normal course of any Borrower Party’s business, any circumstances exist that would result in any Borrower Party’s being liable to any Agency for any amount due by reason of: (i) any breach of servicing or subservicing obligations or breach of mortgage selling warranties to the Agency under the related Servicing Contract or any other similar contracts relating to the Borrower’s entire Agency servicing or subservicing portfolio (including without limitation any unmet mortgage repurchase obligation), (ii) any unperformed obligation with respect to mortgages in an MBS pool that the Borrower is servicing for any Agency pursuant to a recourse agreement, (iii) any loss or damage to any Agency by reason of any inability to transfer to a purchaser of the Servicing Rights the Borrower’s selling and servicing representations, warranties and obligations, as well as any existing MBS recourse obligations, or other recourse obligations, and (iv) any other unmet obligations to any Agency under the related Servicing Contract or any other similar contracts relating to the Borrower’s entire Agency servicing portfolio.

No Eligible Servicing Rights are related to Mortgage Loans owned or financed by a third-party (including without limitation any Affiliate of Borrower) other than Xxxxxx Mae pursuant to the Xxxxxx Xxx Acknowledgment Agreement, and no Person has any interest in any Eligible Servicing Rights or any related Mortgage Loans, other than Lender, Borrower or Xxxxxx Mae pursuant to the Xxxxxx Xxx Acknowledgment Agreement (including without limitation any right to control or transfer or otherwise effectuate any remedy relating to any Eligible Servicing Rights).

(c) All Recourse Servicing Obligations as of the applicable date of the most recent Electronic File have been identified as such in a monthly summary report delivered to the Lender.

(e) All filings and other actions (including the execution of an account control agreement) necessary to perfect the security interest in the Collection Account created under this Agreement have been duly made or taken and are in full force and effect, and the Facility Documents create in favor of the Lender a valid and, together with such filings and other actions, perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral, securing the payment of the Obligations, and all filings and other actions necessary to perfect such security interest have been duly taken. Subject to the rights of the related Agency as set forth in Section 4.02 and in the related Acknowledgement Agreement, the Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the Collateral free and clear of any Lien, except for the Liens created or permitted under the Facility Documents.

(f) Subject only to the terms of the related Acknowledgement Agreement, the Borrower has and will continue to have the full right, power and authority, to pledge the Servicing Rights, and the pledge of such Servicing Rights may be further assigned without any requirement, except as may be specified in the related Agency Guides.

Upon any acceleration of the Loans pursuant to this Section 8.02, the Lender, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, shall have all other rights and remedies provided under the UCC of each applicable jurisdiction and other applicable laws, which rights shall be cumulative. The Borrower agrees, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and notice from the Lender, to assemble, at its expense, all of the Collateral that is in its possession (whether by return, repossession, or otherwise) at a place designated by the Lender. All out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Lender in the collection of all Obligations, and the enforcement of its rights hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, shall be paid out of the Collateral.

Each of the Lender and the Borrower shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bid for and purchase any or all Collateral at any public or private sale. The Borrower hereby agrees that in any sale of any of the Collateral, the Lender is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law (including, without limitation, compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any Governmental Authority, and the Borrower further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Lender shall not be liable for any sale, private or public, conducted in accordance with this Section 8.02(c).

(d) In the event that Borrower receives a notice from an Agency indicating a material breach, material default or material non-compliance by the Borrower that the Lender reasonably determines may entitle such Agency to terminate the Borrower, which breach, default or non-compliance has not been satisfactorily cured or remedied within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt by the Borrower of such notice, or such lesser time as Lender believes is necessary to protect its interest and provides Borrower with written notice thereof, as the case may be, the Lender may by written notice to the Borrower, terminate the Facility and declare all Loans and all other Obligations to be immediately due and payable.

(b) Distributions Prior to an Event of Default. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, the Borrower may withdraw amounts on deposit in the Collection Account at any time.

(c) Distributions After an Event of Default. The Lender may, at any time and without notice to, or consent from, the Borrower, transfer, or direct the transfer of, funds from the Collection Account to satisfy the Borrower’s obligations under the Facility Documents if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(d) On each Business Day during which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, the Lender shall apply Collections in the following order to pay:

(i) to the Lender, any fees due pursuant to the terms hereof;

The Borrower and the Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with each other in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under the Facility Documents.

Section 9.05. Voting Rights of Participants. The Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Facility Documents other than any amendment, modification, or waiver with respect to any Loan or Available Facility Amount in which such Participant has an interest which forgives principal, interest, or fees or reduces the interest rate or fees payable with respect to any such Loan or Available Facility Amount, extends the Wind Down Date, postpones any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal of, or interest or fees on, any such Loan or Available Facility Amount or releases all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than as expressly permitted pursuant to the Facility Documents).

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.01. Indemnities by the Borrower. Without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, the Lender, its Affiliates, successors, permitted transferees and assigns and all officers, directors, shareholders, controlling persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing (each an “Indemnified Party”), forthwith on demand, from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of this Agreement, the other Facility Documents, or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent a court of competent jurisdiction determines that they resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party, (b) in the event that the Lender has assigned its rights or delegated its obligations in respect of this Agreement, and the Indemnified Amounts with respect to such assignee exceed the Indemnified Amounts that would otherwise have been payable by the Borrower to the Lender, the amount of such excess, (c) taxes expressly excluded from Taxes in Section 3.02(a) above (other than any such Taxes that are incremental and arise solely by reason of a breach by the Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement), and (d) any lost profits or indirect, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages of any Indemnified Party. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Lender in connection with any Collateral for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Collateral, the Borrower will save, indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever of the account debtor or obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by the Borrower 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 the Borrower. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the Lender as and when billed by the Lender for all the Lender’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or the preservation of the Lender’s rights under this Agreement, the Note, any other Facility Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including without limitation the fees and disbursements of its counsel. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that, notwithstanding the fact that the Note is secured by the Collateral, the obligation of the Borrower under the Note is a recourse obligation of the Borrower. Under no circumstances shall any Indemnified Party be liable to the Borrower for any lost profits or indirect, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

Section 10.02. General Provisions. If for any reason the indemnification provided above in Section 10.01 (and subject to the limitations on indemnification contained therein) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless on the basis of public policy, then the Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Borrower on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The provisions of this Article X shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.
