Section 1.Covenants of Seller. Section 10(j) of the Existing Purchase and Sale Agreement is hereby amended by deleting clauses (iii) and (v) in their entirety and replacing them with the following:
(iii) Seller shall, at all times, maintain (a) unrestricted and unencumbered cash and Cash Equivalents in an amount not less than $20,000,000 and (b) Liquidity in an amount not less than the sum of the (i) the product of (x) Total Marginable Assets minus mortgage loans held for sale that are financed under this Agreement, the Merchants Bank Agreement, and that certain Master Loan Purchase and Servicing Agreement dated September 11, 2015 between Seller and Guaranty Bank (the “Guaranty Bank Agreement”) and (y) 3% plus (ii) the product of (x) mortgage loans held for sale under this Agreement, the Merchants Bank Agreement, and the Guaranty Bank Agreement and (y) 1%; provided that in the event Seller reports a profitability loss of no more than (x) $15,000,000 for the calendar months ending November 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015 and (y) $10,000,000 for any given calendar month thereafter, the 3% calculation in clause (b)(i) above shall be increased to 4.5% at the end of such calendar month.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Seller becomes subject to a margin call under the terms of the Merchants Bank Agreement or the Guaranty Bank Agreement, mortgage loans financed under such agreement will not be deducted from Total Marginable Assets;
(v) Seller shall not show a pre-tax net loss greater than (i) for the calendar months ending November 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015, $15,000,000 and (ii) for any given calendar month thereafter, $10,000,000; in each case on a rolling six (6) month
basis, as determined in accordance with GAAP before non-cash fair value changes related to mortgage servicing rights.

Seller hereby agrees to pay to Purchaser, on demand, any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by Purchaser in connection with the development, preparation and execution of this Amendment, irrespective of whether any transactions hereunder are executed.
Section 4.Limited Effect. Except as expressly amended and modified by this Amendment, the Existing Purchase and Sale Agreement shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
Section 5.Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by each of the parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
