Re: Waiver re: Post-Closing Requirements and Certain Prepayments
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is hereby made to that certain Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated
as of June 4, 2008 among Residential Funding Company, LLC and GMAC Mortgage, LLC as borrowers
(each, a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”), Residential Capital, LLC,
GMAC Residential Holding Company, LLC, GMAC-RFC Holding Company, LLC, Homecomings Financial, LLC,
as guarantors, certain other affiliates of the Borrowers party thereto (together with the
Borrowers, each an “Obligor” and collectively, the “Obligors”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank,
N.A. as first priority collateral agent and GMAC LLC as lender agent (in such capacity, the
“Lender Agent”) and as initial lender (in such capacity, the “Initial Lender”).
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the
Loan Agreement.
Pursuant to Section 8.01(m) of the Loan Agreement, the Obligors are required to
satisfy each of the Post-Closing Requirements, in all material respects, in accordance with the
time frames listed on Schedule 8.01(m) of the Loan Agreement. As of the date hereof,
certain of the Post-Closing Obligations have not been satisfied. The Obligors have previously
requested and discussed with the Lender Agent the extension of the time frames for the Obligors’ to
satisfy the Post-Closing Requirements of the Loan Agreement and the waiver of any Default or Event
of Default that may occur as a result of the Obligors’ non-compliance with Section 8.01(m)
of the Loan Agreement, and this letter agreement confirms the agreement of the Obligors, the Lender
Agent and the Initial Lender with respect thereto.
Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred with respect to any matter unrelated
to the time frames for the Post-Closing Requirements, this letter memorializes the agreement of the
Obligors, the Lender Agent and the Lenders to extend through and including the dates set out on
Schedule I hereto (the “Extension Period”) the Borrower’s compliance with the
various Post-Closing Requirements set forth in Section 8.01(m) of the Loan Agreement. If
the Obligors have materially satisfied Section 8.01(m) by the end of the Extension Period,
the
Lender Agent and Lenders agree that no Default or Event of Default will
1
occur at the end of
the Extension Period in connection with Section 8.01(m) of the Loan Agreement.
The Obligors have notified the Lender Agent of or otherwise acknowledged certain calculation
errors and other mistakes that occurred in connection with payments due under the Loan Agreement
(described below), and have requested that the Lender Agent and the Lenders waive any Event of
Default arising from calculation errors and related reporting mistakes, whether pursuant to
Section 2.05, Section 2.08(c) of the Loan Agreement or otherwise:
(a) | payment of interest in the amount of $193,466.14 owed in conjunction with a principal paydown in the amount of $190,584,034.70 (due July 8, 2008 and paid July 14, 2008); and | ||
(b) | payment of principal associated with asset sales in the amount of $11,083,493 (due July 15, 2008 and paid July 22, 2008). |
The Lender Agent and the Lenders do hereby waive any Default or Event of Default under the
Loan Agreement resulting from the foregoing failures to timely pay the amounts described above.
Each of the Borrowers hereby represents and warrants that, except as set forth above, no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Except as specifically set forth in
this letter agreement, the Loan Agreement and the other Facility Documents remain in full force and
effect. Neither the execution, delivery nor effectiveness of this letter agreement shall operate
as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default (whether or not known to the Lender Agent or any
Lender) or any right, power or remedy of the Lender Agent or any Lender of any provision contained
in the Loan Agreement or any other Facility Document, whether as a result of any Default or Event
of Default or otherwise. Such waivers shall not create a course of dealing between the parties or
an understanding that a waiver of the occurrence of any other Default or Event of Default will be
granted in the future.
