CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED WAREHOUSING CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of June 25, 2013, is made by and among XXXXXX & DUNLOP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”), XXXXXX & DUNLOP, INC., a Maryland corporation (“Parent”), the Lenders (as defined herein) and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as administrative agent for Lenders under this Agreement (hereinafter referred to in such capacity as the “Administrative Agent”).
Preliminary Statement
A. Borrower and PNC Bank, National Association, in its capacity as a Lender (the “Original Lender”), are parties to that certain Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2010 (the “Original Credit Facility Agreement”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of May 12, 2011 (the “First Amendment”), that certain Second Amendment to Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2011 (the “Second Amendment”), that certain Third Amendment to Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of March 8, 2012 (the “Third Amendment”), that certain Fourth Amendment to Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated September 4, 2012 (the “Fourth Amendment”), that certain Fifth Amendment to Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated January 25, 2013 (the “Fifth Amendment”) and that certain Sixth Amendment to Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated April 2, 2013 (the “Sixth Amendment”) (the Original Credit Facility Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Third Amendment, the Fourth Amendment, the Fifth Amendment and the Sixth Amendment, is herein the “Original Credit Facility Agreement”), whereby upon the satisfaction of certain terms and conditions set forth therein, the Original Lender agreed to make Warehousing Advances from time to time, up to the Warehousing Credit Limit (as defined in the Original Credit Facility Agreement).
B. Parent has guaranteed Borrower’s obligations under the Original Credit Facility Agreement pursuant to that certain Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement dated as of June 30, 2011 (the “Original Guaranty”).
C. Borrower and Parent have requested, and Original Lender has agreed, to amend and restate the Original Credit Facility Agreement in order to, among other things, increase the Warehouse Credit Limit to Six Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($650,000,000), to extend the Stated Maturity Date to June 24, 2014, and to permit the participation of the Warehouse Advances with other lenders, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree to amend and restate the Original Credit Agreement in its entirety as follows:
1. THE CREDIT
1.1 The Warehousing Commitment
1.1(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make Warehousing Advances to Borrower from the Closing Date to the fifth (5th) Business Day immediately preceding the Warehousing Maturity Date, during which applicable period Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that after giving effect to each such Warehousing Advance, the aggregate amount of the Warehousing Advances from such Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Lenders have no obligation to make or maintain Warehousing Advances if, after giving effect to each requested Warehousing Advance, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Warehousing Advances would exceed the Warehousing Credit Limit. While a Default or Event of Default exists, each Lender may refuse to make any additional Warehousing Advances to Borrower. All Warehousing Advances under this Agreement constitute a single indebtedness, and all of the Collateral is security for the Warehousing Note and for the performance of all of the Obligations.
1.1(b) Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Warehousing Advances pursuant to Section 2.1(a) in accordance with its Ratable Share. The aggregate of each Lender’s Warehousing Advances outstanding hereunder to Borrower at any time shall never exceed its Commitment. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. Lenders shall have no obligation to make Warehousing Advances hereunder on or after the Warehousing Maturity Date
1.2 Expiration of Warehousing Commitment
Subject to the extension right set forth below in this Section 1.2, the Warehousing Commitment expires on the earlier of (“Warehousing Maturity Date”): (a) June 24, 2014 (the “Stated Maturity Date”), on which date the Warehousing Commitment will expire of its own term and the Warehousing Advances together with all accrued and unpaid interest and costs and expenses will become due and payable without the necessity of Notice or action by Lenders; and (b) the date the Warehousing Commitment is terminated and the Warehousing Advances become due and payable under Section 10.2(a) or 10.2(b).
1.3 Warehousing Note
Warehousing Advances are evidenced by certain Warehousing Notes, payable to each Lender in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Warehousing Note”) (it being understood that the Warehousing Note payable to PNC shall be an amendment and restatement of the original Warehousing Note held prior to the date of this Agreement). Borrower shall deliver to each Lender a Warehousing Note in a maximum principal amount of such Lender’s Warehousing Commitment Amount. The term “Warehousing Note” as used in this Agreement includes all
amendments, restatements, renewals or replacements of an original Warehousing Note and all substitutions for it. All terms and provisions of the Warehousing Note are incorporated into this Agreement.
1.4 Replacement of Warehousing Note
Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Administrative Agent as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Warehousing Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of such Warehousing Note or other security document and receipt by Borrower of customary indemnification from Administrative Agent, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement note or other security document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor.
1.5 Nature of Obligations
The aggregate amount of all Warehousing Advances outstanding from time to time under this Agreement may hereinafter collectively be referred to as the “Loan.”
1.6 Amended and Restated Guaranty
Parent shall continue to guaranty to Lenders Borrower’s payment and performance under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and in consideration for Lenders’ agreement to enter into this Agreement, Parent covenants and agrees to amend and restate the Original Guaranty by contemporaneously herewith executing and delivering to Lenders an amended and restated guaranty in the form attached hereto as Exhibit R (the “Amended and Restated Guaranty”).
2. PROCEDURES FOR OBTAINING ADVANCES
2.1 Warehousing Advances
Borrower may obtain a Warehousing Advance under this Agreement by delivering to Administrative Agent a completed and signed request for a Warehousing Advance on Administrative Agent’s then current form (“Warehousing Advance Request”), not later than Three O’Clock (3:00) p.m. on the Business Day that is one (1) Business Day before the Business Day on which Borrower desires the Warehousing Advance. Warehousing Advance Requests received by Administrative Agent after Three O’Clock (3:00) p.m. on a Business Day will be deemed received on the following Business Day, provided, however, on a case-by-case basis at the request of Borrower, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion (and without thereby establishing any course of dealing), extend such Three O’Clock (3:00) p.m. cut-off time to a later time on the subject Business Day. Subject to the delivery of a Warehousing Advance Request and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, Borrower may obtain a Warehousing Advance under this Agreement upon compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section and in the applicable Exhibit B, including delivery to the Administrative Agent of all Collateral Documents required to be delivered on the applicable dates specified in this Agreement for such delivery. Administrative Agent’s current form of Warehousing Advance Request is set forth in Exhibit C. Upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior Notice to Borrower, Administrative Agent may modify its form of Warehousing Advance Request and any other Exhibit or document referred to in this Section to conform to current legal
requirements or Administrative Agent’s practices and, as so modified, those Exhibits and documents will become part of this Agreement.
2.2 Funding Advances
2.2(a) Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender no later than Twelve O’Clock (12:00) noon on the date of the of Administrative Agent’s receipt (or by Nine O’Clock (9:00) a.m. of the immediately following Business day if such receipt is after Eleven O’Clock (11:00) a.m. of a Warehousing Advance Request and of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Warehousing Advance. Each such notice is herein a “Funding Notice”. To make a Warehousing Advance, each Lender shall wire transfer to the account specified by Administrative Agent in such notice (i) prior to Ten O’Clock (10:00) a.m. on the date of such Warehousing Advance (provided that Administrative Agent has delivered a Funding Notice to such Lender no later than Twelve O’Clock (12:00) noon of the immediately preceding Business Day of the Warehousing Advance Request) or (ii) prior to Two O’Clock (2:00) p.m. on the date of such Warehousing Advance (provided that Administrative Agent has notified such Lender after Twelve O’Clock (12:00) noon of the immediately preceding Business day and no later than Nine O’Clock (9:00) a.m. on the date of the Warehousing Advance), and Administrative Agent shall make such Warehousing Advance available to Borrower only upon receipt of each Lender’s Ratable Share thereof. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to fund a non-funding Lender’s Ratable Share of any Warehousing Advance.
2.2(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Warehousing Advance that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Warehousing Advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make such Ratable Share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.2(a) and may (but is not obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Ratable Share of the applicable Warehousing Advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Open Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans under the Applicable Base Rate. If such Lender pays its Ratable Share of the applicable Warehousing Advance to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Warehousing Advance. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
2.3 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders.
Each borrowing of a Warehousing Advance shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each payment or prepayment by Borrower with respect to principal, interest, facility fee and Miscellaneous Fees and Charges (but specifically excluding the administrative fee which shall remain payable to Administrative Agent) shall (except as otherwise may be provided with respect to a Defaulting Lender) be payable ratably among Lenders entitled to such payment in accordance with the amount of principal, interest, facility fees and Miscellaneous Fees and Charges as set forth in this Agreement.
2.4 Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
2.4(a) The Commitment and outstanding Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.1); provided, that this Section 2.4(a) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby.
2.4(b) In the event that Administrative Agent, Borrower, and the non-defaulting Lenders agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, and the Ratable Share of Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable Share.
2.5 Replacement of a Lender.
2.5(a) In the event any Lender (i) is a Defaulting Lender, or (ii) becomes subject to the control of a Governmental Authority (other than normal and customary supervision), then in any such event Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 12.21(a)), all of its interests, rights (other than existing rights to payments pursuant Section 12.4) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 12.2) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); and
(ii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
3. INTEREST, PRINCIPAL AND FEES
3.1 Interest
3.1(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, Borrower must pay interest on the unpaid amount of each Warehousing Advance from the date the Warehousing Advance is made until it is paid in full at the Applicable Rate as in effect from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, a Warehousing Advance is deemed to be made as of the date the title company or escrow agent handling the closing of the subject Mortgage Loan receives such Warehousing Advance. Borrower must pay Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders and for the benefit of Lenders, accrued interest on each Warehousing Advance on the Warehousing Advance Due Date or upon prepayment of such Warehousing Advance.
3.1(b) Administrative Agent computes interest on the basis of the actual number of days in each month and a year of Three Hundred Sixty (360) days. Borrower must pay interest on outstanding Warehouse Advances in arrears on the Warehousing Advance Due Date and on the Warehousing Maturity Date.
3.1(c) If, for any reason, (i) Borrower repays a Warehousing Advance on the same day that it was made, or (ii) Borrower instructs the Administrative Agent not to make a previously requested Warehousing Advance after Lenders have reserved funds or made other arrangements necessary to enable Lenders to fund that Warehousing Advance, Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, without limiting the provisions of Section 3.11, for the account of Lenders, interest thereon at the Applicable Rate for one day notwithstanding repayment prior to the cut-off time specified in Section 3.8(a) (unless the reason for such repayment is due to the failure of the underlying transaction to close). Borrower must pay all such interest within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s notice thereof.
3.1(d) After an Event of Default occurs, the unpaid amount of each Warehousing Advance will bear interest at the Default Rate until paid in full.
3.1(e) The Administrative Agent will adjust the rates of interest provided for in this Agreement as of the effective date of each change in the applicable Reference Rate. The Administrative Agent’s determination of such rates of interest as of any date of determination is conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.
3.2 Interest Limitation
If, at any time, the rate of interest, together with all amounts which constitute or are deemed under any applicable law to constitute interest and which are reserved, charged or taken by the Administrative Agent as compensation for fees, services or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating or collecting of Warehousing Advances, shall be deemed by any competent court of law, governmental agency or tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by the Administrative Agent to Borrower under applicable law, then, during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal (or, if no Obligations are then outstanding, shall be repaid to Borrower). As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.
3.3 Principal Payments
3.3(a) Borrower must pay Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders, the outstanding principal amount of each Warehousing Advance, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the applicable Warehousing Advance Due Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower must pay Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders the outstanding principal amount of all Warehousing Advances together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any unpaid costs and expenses, on the Warehousing Maturity Date.
3.3(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.1, Borrower may prepay any portion of the Warehousing Advances, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on the portion so prepaid, without premium or penalty at any time.
3.3(c) Borrower must pay to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders, and Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent to charge its Operating Accounts for, the amount of any outstanding Warehousing Advance, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, against a specific Pledged Loan or Pledged Security upon the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:
(i) On the date a Warehousing Advance was made if the Pledged Loan to be funded by that Warehousing Advance has not closed and funded.
(ii) Three (3) Business Days elapse from the date a Warehousing Advance was made against a Pledged Loan, without receipt of the Collateral Documents relating to that Pledged Loan required to be delivered on that date, or if such Collateral Documents, upon examination by the Administrative Agent, are found not to be in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement or the related Purchase Commitment and Borrower has not delivered Collateral Documents in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement or the related Purchase
Commitment within three (3) Business Days of receipt by Borrower of Notice from the Administrative Agent specifying the non-compliant items.
(iii) Ten (10) Business Days elapse without the return of a Collateral Document delivered by the Administrative Agent to Borrower under a Trust Receipt for correction or completion.
(iv) On the date on which a Pledged Loan is determined to have been originated based on untrue, incomplete or inaccurate information or to be subject to fraud, whether or not Borrower had knowledge of the misrepresentation, incomplete or inaccurate information or fraud.
(v) On the date on which Borrower knows, has reason to know, or receives Notice from Administrative Agent, that (A) one or more of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 9 were inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect on any date when made or deemed made or became inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect after any such date, or (B) Borrower has failed to perform or comply with any covenant, term or condition applicable to it set forth in Article 9.
(vi) On the date on which a Pledged Loan or an obligation secured by a Lien senior to the Mortgage securing repayment of the Pledged Loan has been in default for a period of sixty (60) days or more (it being understood that, as provided in Section 9.1(q), no Warehousing Advance will be made against any Mortgage Loan which is in default).
(vii) On the mandatory delivery date of the related Purchase Commitment if the specific Pledged Loan has not been delivered under the Purchase Commitment on or prior to such mandatory delivery date, or on the date the related Purchase Commitment expires or is terminated.
(viii) Three (3) Business Days after the date a Pledged Loan is rejected for purchase by an Investor unless another Purchase Commitment is provided within that three (3) Business Day period.
(ix) Upon the sale, other disposition or prepayment of any Pledged Loan or Pledged Security or, with respect to a Pledged Loan included in an Eligible Mortgage Pool, upon the sale or other disposition of the related Agency Security.
(x) With respect to any Pledged Loan, any of the Collateral Documents, upon examination by Administrative Agent, are found not to be in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement or the related Purchase Commitment.
(xi) If, after giving effect to a new Warehousing Advance against a Pledged Loan or to the payment of existing Warehousing Advances against Pledged Loans, any of the limitations set forth in Exhibit D have been exceeded.
3.3(d) In addition to the payments required by Sections 3.3(a) and 3.3(c), if the principal amount of any Pledged Loan is prepaid in whole or in part while a Warehousing Advance is outstanding against the Pledged Loan, Borrower must pay to Administrative Agent, without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from the Administrative Agent, and Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge its Operating Accounts for, the amount of the prepayment, to be applied against the Warehousing Advance.
3.3(e) The proceeds of the sale or other disposition of any Pledged Loan or Pledged Security must be paid directly by the Investor to Borrower’s Cash Collateral Account. Borrower must give Notice to the Administrative Agent in writing of the Pledged Loan or Pledged Security for which proceeds have been received (including Notice to the Administrative Agent in writing of any prepayment). Upon receipt of such Notice, the Administrative Agent will apply any proceeds deposited into the applicable Cash Collateral Account to the payment of the Warehousing Advances related to the Pledged Loan or Pledged Security identified by Borrower in its Notice, and such Pledged Loan or Pledged Security will be considered to have been redeemed from pledge to the extent the related Warehousing Advance has been paid in full. The Administrative Agent is entitled to rely upon a Borrower’s affirmation that deposits in the applicable Cash Collateral Account represent payments from Investors for the purchase of the Pledged Loan or Pledged Security specified by Borrower in its Notice. If the payment from an Investor for the purchase of a Pledged Loan or Pledged Security is less than the outstanding Warehousing Advances against such Pledged Loan or Pledged Security identified by Borrower in its Notice, Borrower must pay to the Administrative Agent, and Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge Borrower’s Operating Accounts for, an amount equal to that deficiency. As long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent will return to Borrower any excess payment from an Investor for such Pledged Loan or Pledged Security.
3.3(f) The Administrative Agent reserves the right at any time to revalue any Pledged Loan or Pledged Security. Borrower must pay to the Administrative Agent, without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from the Administrative Agent, and Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge Borrower’s Operating Accounts for, any amount required after any such revaluation to reduce the principal amount of the Warehousing Advance outstanding against the revalued Pledged Loan or Pledged Security to an amount equal to the Advance Rate for the applicable type of Pledged Loan or Pledged Security multiplied by the Fair Market Value of the Pledged Loan or Pledged Security.
3.4 Facility Fee
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, an annual facility fee in an amount equal to two-tenths of one percent (.2%) of the Warehousing Credit Limit (the “Facility Fee”), to be paid quarterly in arrears, commencing on the first Business Day of each Calendar Quarter following the Closing Date during the term of the Loan. The Facility Fee shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders in proportion to each Lender’s Ratable Share; provided, however, that the Facility Fee shall not be payable to a Defaulting Lender.
3.5 Administrative Fee
In connection with each Warehousing Advance, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, an administrative fee in an amount to be agreed upon between Borrower and Administrative Agent.
3.6 Miscellaneous Fees and Charges
Borrower must pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, as applicable, for all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges. Borrower must pay all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s notice thereof.
3.7 Overdraft Advances
If, under the authorization given by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent debits Borrower’s Operating Account to honor an item presented against an Operating Account and that debit or direction results in an overdraft, the Administrative Agent may make an additional advance to fund that overdraft (without seeking a Ratable Share of such advance from each Lender) (“Overdraft Advance”). Borrower must pay (a) the outstanding amount of any Overdraft Advance, within three (3) Business Days after the date of the Overdraft Advance, and (b) interest on the amount of the Overdraft Advance, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate plus Two percent (2%), within three (3) Business Days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s notice thereof.
3.8 Method of Making Payments
3.8(a) (i) All payments of interest, principal and fees shall be made in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds, without counterclaim or setoff and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments by wire transfer to Administrative Agent, or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Payments shall be credited on the Business Day on which immediately available funds are received prior to Three O’clock (3:00) p.m.; payments received after Three O’Clock (3:00) p.m. shall be credited on the next Business Day. All payments (regardless of whether such payment is sufficient to pay fully all Obligations then due and payable) shall be applied (A) first to the payment of all fees, expenses, and other amounts due to Administrative Agent (excluding principal and interest), then (B) second to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due to Lenders (excluding principal and interest), distributed ratably on the basis of each Lender’s Ratable Share, then (C) third to accrued interest, distributed ratably among the Lenders entitled thereto based on their Ratable Share, and then (D) fourth to outstanding principal, distributed ratably among the Lenders entitled thereto based on their Ratable Share. If the due date is not a Business Day, payment is due on, and interest will accrue to, the next Business Day.
(ii) All distributions from Administrative Agent to each Lender shall be made by the Administrative Agent’s initiating a federal funds wire by 4:00 p.m. on the Business Day when such funds were received as provided in Section 3.8(a)(i) above, in immediately available funds, directly to such account designated by each Lender in writing. If Administrative Agent shall fail or refuse to initiate such wire by 5:00 p.m. or provide
Lender(s) with a federal wire reference number on the same Business Day as the payment was received, then, as agreed full and adequate compensation therefor, Administrative Agent shall pay the affected Lender(s) interest on the undistributed funds at the Federal Funds Open Rate.
3.8(b) Subject to Section 3.8(c) below, Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge Borrower’s Operating Accounts for any interest or fees due and payable to Administrative Agent after giving at least two (2) Business Days’ Notice to Borrower.
3.8(c) While a Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge Borrower’s Operating Accounts for any Obligations due and payable to the Administrative Agent, without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from the Administrative Agent.
3.8(d) All payments made on account of the Obligations shall be made by Borrower to the Administrative Agent. No principal payments resulting from the refinancing, sale or other disposition of Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the Administrative Agent has also received the Notice required under Section 3.3(e).
3.9 Xxxxxxxx
Any changes in the interest rate and in the outstanding amount of the Obligations which occur between the date of any billing and the due date of any payment may be reflected in adjustments in the billing for a subsequent month. Neither the failure of the Administrative Agent to submit a xxxx, nor any error in any such xxxx shall excuse Borrower from the obligation to make full payment of all Borrower’s payment obligations when due.
3.10 Late Charges
Borrower shall pay, upon billing therefor, a “Late Charge” equal to three percent (3%) of the amount of any payment of principal (other than principal due at the Warehousing Maturity Date or the date on which the Administrative Agent accelerates the time for payment of the Loan after the occurrence of an Event of Default), interest, or fees, which fees are not paid within ten (10) days of the due date thereof. Late Charges are: (a) payable in addition to, and not in limitation of, the Default Rate; (b) intended to compensate the Administrative Agent for administrative and processing costs incident to late payments; (c) not interest; and (d) not subject to refund or rebate or credit against any other amount due.
3.11 Additional Provisions Relating to Interest Rate
3.11(a) If any Recipient has determined, after the date hereof, that the adoption or the becoming effective of, or any change in, or any change by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof in the interpretation or administration of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or compliance by such Recipient with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return such Recipient’s capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Recipient could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Recipient’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon notice from such Recipient to Borrower and delivery by such Recipient of a statement setting forth the reduction in the rate of return experienced by such Recipient and the amount necessary to compensate such Recipient under this Section 3.11(a), Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such Recipient such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Recipient for such reduction. Each determination by such Recipient of amounts owing under this Section shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto.
3.11(b) If Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Applicable Daily Floating LIBO Rate for any day; or (ii) the Daily LIBO Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding (including maintaining) Warehousing Advances, then Administrative Agent shall give Borrower prompt notice thereof, and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Loan (and all outstanding and future Warehousing Advances under the Loan) shall bear interest at the Applicable Base Rate.
3.11(c) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Lenders hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on each Lender’s income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which each Lender is organized or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.11(c)) Administrative Agent or such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iv) Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
3.11(d) Borrower also agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). Further, if Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement to Administrative Agent or Lenders, Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that Administrative Agent specifies is necessary to preserve the after-
tax yield (after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that Administrative Agent or Lenders would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed.
3.11(e) Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and Lenders for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.11) paid by any of them and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; (ii) any other amounts payable under Section 3.11; and (iii) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this Section 3.11(e) shall be made within 30 days after the date that the Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor.
3.11(f) In the event that Borrower is required to pay or withhold any amount pursuant to Sections 3.11(c), 3.11(d), or 3.11(e), which results in Borrower paying more than would have been the case without regard to such Sections (an “Excess Payment”), Borrower shall have the option to terminate the Warehousing Commitment in its entirety (but not in part) and this Agreement (other than as to those provisions which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement), by giving Notice to the Administrative Agent specifying the effective date of such termination, which Notice may be given no earlier than three (3) Business Days after making an Excess Payment and no later than thirty (30) days after making an Excess Payment. Upon the effective date of the termination of this Agreement by Borrower pursuant to this Section, Borrower shall pay all of the Obligations in full.
3.11(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, if (x) any change in law shall make it unlawful for Lenders to make Warehousing Advances as LIBOR Loans, or to maintain outstanding Warehousing Advances as LIBOR Loans or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to the Loan or any particular Warehousing Advance as a LIBOR Loan or (y) at any time Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the making or continuance of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date hereof which adversely affects the London interbank market, the Administrative Agent may, by written notice to Borrower (i) declare that LIBOR Loans will not thereafter be made by any Lender hereunder, whereupon all subsequent Warehousing Advances will be made as Base Rate Loans unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and/or (ii) require that any then outstanding Warehousing Advances be converted to Base Rate Loans (and thereby bear interest at the Applicable Base Rate), as of the effective date of such notice.
3.12 Continuing Authority of Authorized Representatives
The Administrative Agent and Lenders are authorized to rely upon the continuing authority of the Persons hereafter designated by Borrower (“Authorized Representatives”) to bind Borrower with respect to all matters pertaining to the Loan and the Loan Documents, including, but not
limited to, the submission of requests for Warehousing Advances, and certificates with regard thereto, instructions with regard to the Operating Accounts and, to the extent permitted under this Agreement, the Collateral, and matters pertaining to the procedures and documentation for Warehousing Advances. Such authorization may be changed only upon written notice to Administrative Agent accompanied by evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, of the authority of the person giving such notice and such notice shall be effective not sooner than five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof by Administrative Agent. The Authorized Representatives as of the Closing Date are listed on Exhibit E. Administrative Agent shall have a right of approval, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, over the identity of the Authorized Representatives so as to assure Administrative Agent that each Authorized Representative is a responsible and senior official of Borrower.

4.1(d) All private mortgage insurance and all commitments issued by the FHA to insure or guarantee any Pledged Loan; all Purchase Commitments held by Borrower covering

4.1(g) All Hedging Arrangements related to the Collateral (“Pledged Hedging Arrangements”) and Borrower’s accounts in which those Hedging Arrangements are held (“Pledged Hedging Accounts”), including all rights to payment arising under the Pledged Hedging Arrangements and the Pledged Hedging Accounts, except that Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Hedging Arrangements and Pledged Hedging Accounts applies only to benefits, including rights to payment, related to the Collateral.

4.3 Release of Security Interest in Pledged Loans and Pledged Securities
4.3(a) Except as provided in Section 4.3(b), Administrative Agent will release its security interest in a Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to such Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1, only against payment to Administrative Agent of the Release Amount in connection with such Pledged Loan. If a Pledged Loan is transferred to a pool custodian or an Investor for inclusion in a Mortgage Pool and Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to the Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1 is not released before the issuance of the related Mortgage-backed Security, then that Mortgage-backed Security, when issued, is a Pledged Security, Administrative Agent’s security interest continues in such Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to such Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1, backing that Pledged Security and Administrative Agent is entitled to possession of the Pledged Security in the manner provided in this Agreement.
4.3(b) If a Pledged Loan is transferred to an Approved Custodian and included in an Eligible Mortgage Pool, Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to such Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1, included in the Eligible Mortgage Pool will be released upon the delivery of the Agency Security to Administrative Agent (including delivery to or registration in the name of a third party on behalf of Administrative Agent) and that Agency Security is a Pledged Security. Administrative Agent’s security interest in that Pledged Security will be released only against payment to Administrative Agent of the Release Amount in connection with the Mortgage Loans backing that Pledged Security.
4.3(c) Administrative Agent has the exclusive right to possession of all Pledged Securities or, if Pledged Securities are issued in book-entry form or issued in certificated form and delivered to a clearing corporation (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of Pennsylvania) or its nominee, Administrative Agent has the right to have the Pledged Securities registered in the name of a securities intermediary (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of Pennsylvania) in an account containing only customer securities and credited to an account of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent has no duty or obligation to deliver Pledged Securities to an Investor or to credit Pledged Securities to the account of an Investor or an Investor’s designee except against payment for those Pledged Securities. Borrower acknowledges that Administrative Agent may enter into one or more standing arrangements with securities intermediaries with respect to Pledged Securities issued in book entry form or issued in certificated form and delivered to a clearing corporation or its designee, under which the Pledged Securities are registered in the name of the securities intermediary,
and Borrower agrees, upon request of Administrative Agent, to execute and deliver to those securities intermediaries their respective written concurrence in any such standing arrangements.
4.3(d) If no Default or Event of Default occurs (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived), Borrower may redeem a Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to a Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1, or Pledged Security from Administrative Agent’s security interest by notifying Administrative Agent of its intention to redeem the Pledged Loan or Pledged Security from pledge and paying, or causing an Investor to pay, to Administrative Agent, for application as a prepayment on the principal balance of the Warehousing Note, the Release Amount in connection with such Pledged Loan or the Pledged Loans backing that Pledged Security.
4.3(e) After a Default or Event of Default occurs, Administrative Agent may, with no liability to Borrower or any other Person, continue to release its security interest in any Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to such Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1, or Pledged Security against payment of the Release Amount for such Pledged Loan or for the Pledged Loans backing that Pledged Security.
4.3(f) The amount to be paid by Borrower to obtain the release of Administrative Agent’s security interest in a Pledged Loan and all of the Collateral related to such Pledged Loan, as such Collateral is described in Section 4.1 (“Release Amount”) will be (1) in connection with the sale of a Pledged Loan by Administrative Agent while an Event of Default exists, the amount paid to Administrative Agent in a commercially reasonable disposition of that Pledged Loan and (2) otherwise, the principal amount of the Warehousing Advance outstanding against the Pledged Loan together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
4.4 Collection and Servicing Rights
4.4(a) If no Event of Default exists, Borrower may service and receive and collect directly all sums payable to Borrower in respect of the Collateral other than proceeds of any Purchase Commitment or proceeds of the sale of any Collateral. All proceeds of any Purchase Commitment or any other sale of Collateral must be paid directly to the Cash Collateral Account for application as provided in this Agreement.
4.4(b) After an Event of Default occurs and remains continuing, Administrative Agent or its designee is entitled to service and receive and collect all sums payable to Borrower in respect of the Collateral, and in such case, subject to any applicable requirements of the relevant Federal Agency, (1) Administrative Agent or its designee in its discretion may, in its own name, in the name of Borrower or otherwise, demand, xxx for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but Administrative Agent has no obligation to do so, (2) Borrower must, if Administrative Agent requests it to do so, hold in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and immediately pay to Administrative Agent at its office designated by Notice, all amounts received by Borrower upon or in respect of any
of the Collateral, advising Administrative Agent as to the source of those funds, and (3) all amounts so received and collected by Administrative Agent will be held by it as part of the Collateral and applied by Administrative Agent as provided in this Agreement.
4.5 Return of Collateral at End of Warehousing Commitment
If (a) the Warehousing Commitment has expired or has been terminated, and (b) no Warehousing Advances, interest or other Obligations are outstanding and unpaid, Administrative Agent will release its security interest and will deliver all Collateral in its possession to Borrower at Borrower’s expense. Borrower’s acknowledgement or receipt for any Collateral released or delivered to Borrower under any provision of this Agreement is a complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so returned, and the Administrative Agent is discharged from any liability or responsibility for that Collateral.
4.6 Delivery of Collateral Documents
4.6(a) The Administrative Agent may deliver documents relating to the Collateral to Borrower for correction or completion under a Trust Receipt.
4.6(b) If no Default or Event of Default exists, upon delivery by Borrower to Administrative Agent of shipping instructions pursuant to the applicable Exhibit B, Administrative Agent will deliver the Mortgage Notes evidencing Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities together with all related loan documents and pool documents previously received by Administrative Agent under the requirements of the applicable Exhibit B to the designated Investor or Approved Custodian or to another party designated by Borrower and acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.
4.6(c) If a Default or Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent may, without liability to Borrower or any other Person, continue to deliver Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities, together with all related loan documents and pool documents in Administrative Agent’s possession, to the applicable Investor or Approved Custodian or to another party acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.
4.7 Borrower Remains Liable
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower shall remain liable under each item of the Collateral granted by it to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms thereof and any other agreement giving rise thereto, and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions thereof. Whether or not the Administrative Agent has exercised any rights in any of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation or liability (other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct) under any of the Collateral (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of Borrower under or pursuant to any of the Collateral (or any agreement giving rise thereto) to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any of the Collateral (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any
claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(v) Require Borrower to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent the Collateral and all related books and records at a place designated by the Administrative Agent.
(vi) Enter onto property where any Collateral or related books and records are located and take possession of those items with or without judicial process; and obtain access to Borrower’s respective data processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating to the Collateral and use all of the foregoing and the information contained in the foregoing in any manner the Administrative Agent deems necessary for the purpose of effectuating its rights under this Agreement and any other Loan Document.
(vii) Before the disposition of the Collateral, prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent the Administrative Agent deems appropriate.
(viii) Exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Commercial Code of Pennsylvania or other applicable law, including selling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion of the Collateral at one or more public or private sales, whether or not the Collateral is present at the place of sale, for cash or credit or future delivery, on terms and conditions and in the manner as the Administrative Agent may determine, including sale under any applicable Purchase Commitment. Borrower waives any right it may have to prior notice of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral to the extent allowed by applicable law. If notice is required under applicable law, the Administrative Agent will give Borrower not less than ten (10) days’ notice of any public sale or of the date after which any private sale may be held. Borrower agrees that ten (10) days’ notice is reasonable notice. Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale one or more times by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and the sale may be held at any time or place announced at the adjournment. In the case of a sale of all or any portion of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral sold on those terms may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the purchaser pays the selling price or takes possession of the Collateral. Administrative Agent has no liability to Borrower if a purchaser fails to pay for or take possession of Collateral sold on those terms, and in the case of any such failure, Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral again upon notice complying with this Section.

(x) Proceed against Borrower on the Warehousing Note.
10.2(e) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender will incur any liability as a result of the commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral at any public or private sale or other disposition. Borrower waives (to the
extent permitted by law) any claims it may have against Administrative Agent or any Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, or was less than the aggregate amount of the outstanding Warehousing Advances, accrued and unpaid interest on those Warehousing Advances, and unpaid fees, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. Borrower agrees that any sale of Collateral under the terms of a Purchase Commitment, or any other disposition of Collateral arranged by Borrower, whether before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, will be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.
10.2(f) Borrower acknowledges that the Mortgage Loans are collateral of a type that are the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations and that Mortgage-backed Securities are collateral of a type that are customarily sold on a recognized market. Borrower waives any right it may have to prior notice of the sale of Pledged Securities, and agrees that Administrative Agent or any Lender may purchase Pledged Loans and Pledged Securities at a private sale of such Collateral.
10.2(g) Borrower specifically waives and releases (to the extent permitted by law) any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal that Borrower has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or adopted after the date of this Agreement, and any right to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to (1) proceed against any Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any of the Collateral or pursue its rights and remedies against the Collateral in any particular order or (3) pursue any other remedy within its power. Administrative Agent is not required to take any action to preserve any rights of Borrower against holders of mortgages having priority to the Lien of any Mortgage or Security Agreement included in the Collateral or to preserve Borrower’s rights against other prior parties.
10.2(h) Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance any sums or do any act or thing necessary to uphold or enforce the Lien and priority of, or the security intended to be afforded by, any Mortgage or Security Agreement included in the Collateral, including payment of delinquent taxes or assessments and insurance premiums. All advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement of this Agreement, together with interest on those amounts at the Default Rate, from the time paid by Administrative Agent or any Lender until repaid by Borrower, are deemed to be principal outstanding under this Agreement and the Warehousing Note.
10.2(i) No failure or delay on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, power or remedy provided in this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, at law or in equity, will operate as a waiver of that right, power or remedy. No single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at law or in equity, precludes any other or further exercise of that right, power or remedy by
Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower waives all defenses based on the statute of limitations to the extent permitted by law. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided at law or in equity.
10.2(j) Borrower grants the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, a license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s computer programs, other programs, labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising for sale and selling any of the Collateral and Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all other agreements related to the foregoing inure to the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s benefit until the Obligations are paid in full.
10.3 Insufficiency of Proceeds
If the proceeds realized from any sale, disposition or other enforcement rights with respect to the Collateral are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such sale, disposition or other enforcement rights with respect to the Collateral and payment in full of all Obligations, then Borrower shall be liable for the deficiency. Nothing herein shall require Administrative Agent or any Lender to look to all or any portion of the Collateral prior to, or in lieu of, pursuing any other right or remedy, any or all of which may be pursued in any order and at any time, including at the same time.
10.4 Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact
Borrower appoints the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, the Warehousing Note and the other Loan Documents and taking any action and executing any instruments that the Administrative Agent deems necessary or advisable on behalf of the Lenders, to accomplish that purpose. Borrower’s appointment of the Administrative Agent as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may give notice, on behalf of the Lenders, of the security interest in and Lien on the Collateral to any Person, either in Borrower’s name or in its own name, endorse all Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities payable to the order of Borrower, change or cause to be changed the book-entry registration or name of subscriber or Investor on any Pledged Security, prepare and submit for filing Uniform Commercial Code amendment statements with respect to any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements filed in connection with any item of Collateral or receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of Borrower representing payment on account of the principal of or interest on, or the proceeds of sale of, any of the Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities and give full discharge for those transactions. The foregoing appointment shall be effective immediately with respect to ministerial matters, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to all other matters.
10.5 Right of Set-Off
Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent and each Lender, a continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and obligations to Administrative Agent and each Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody safekeeping or control of Administrative Agent or any Lender or any entity under the control of Administrative Agent or any Lender, and their respective successors and assigns or in transit to any of them, other than third-party custodial accounts maintained by Borrower at Administrative Agent or any each Lender. Upon occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the payment of any Obligation or in the performance of any of its duties under the Loan Documents, Administrative Agent or any Lender may, as determined in such party’s sole discretion, without Notice to or demand on Borrower (which Notice or demand Borrower expressly waives), set-off, appropriate or apply any property of Borrower held at any time by Administrative Agent or such Lender, or any indebtedness at any time owed by Administrative Agent or such Lender to or for the account of a Borrower, against the Obligations, whether or not those Obligations have matured and irrespective of whether or not such Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.5 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or Administrative Agent may have. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE LOANS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH NON-CUSTODIAL DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
10.6 Application of Funds.
After the exercise of remedies provided for in this Section 10 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in this Section 10), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by Administrative Agent in the following order:
First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent) payable to Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender.
Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and the other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender;
Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably among them in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender; and
Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by law.
11. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
11.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints PNC Bank, National Association to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 11 (other than as permitted in Section 11.6) are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and Borrower shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.
11.2 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
11.3 Exculpatory Provisions.
11.3(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and
(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
11.3(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.1) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
11.3(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
11.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Warehousing Advance, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Administrative
Advance. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
11.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 11 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
11.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 11.6. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 11 and Section 12.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
11.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or
any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
11.8 Authorization to Release Collateral. The Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent, at Borrower’s expense, to release any Collateral pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of Section 4.3.
11.9 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.
12. MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 Modifications, Amendments or Waivers. With the written consent of Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of all Lenders, and Borrower and Guarantor may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the rights of Lenders or the Borrower or Guarantor, or may grant written waivers or consents hereunder or thereunder.

(i) Increase of Commitment. Increase the amount of any Lender’s Warehousing Commitment Amount without the written consent of such Lender;
(ii) Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal, Interest or Fees; Modification of Terms of Payment.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have.

All periods of Notice will be measured from the date of delivery if delivered manually or by facsimile, from the first Business Day after the date of sending if sent by overnight courier or from four (4) days after the date of mailing if sent by United States mail, except that Notices to the Administrative Agent under Article 2 and Section 3.3(e) will be deemed to have been given only when actually received by the Administrative Agent. Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to accept Borrower’s Warehousing Advance Requests, shipping requests, wire transfer instructions, security delivery instructions and other routine communications concerning the Warehousing Commitment and the Collateral transmitted to the Administrative
Agent by electronic transmission (including facsimile or e-mail) and those documents, when transmitted to the Administrative Agent by electronic transmission have the same force and effect as the originals. Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.
Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article 2 if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement) and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.
12.4 Reimbursement Of Expenses; Indemnity
12.4(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to pay promptly: (i) all the actual and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and each Lender for preparation of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers, or other modifications thereto; (ii) the reasonable fees, expenses, and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent and each Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, and administration of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers, or other modifications thereto and any other documents or matters requested by Borrower; (iii) all other actual and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender in connection with the establishment of the facility, and the negotiation, preparation, and execution of the Loan Documents and any consents, amendments, waivers, or other modifications thereto and the transactions contemplated thereby; and (iv) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and costs, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent or any Lender and the fees and costs of appraisers, brokers, investment bankers or other experts retained by Lender) incurred by Administrative Agent and each Lender in connection with (x) the enforcement of or preservation of rights under any of the Loan Documents against Borrower or any other Person, or the administration thereof, (y) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work out” or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and (z) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether arising hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s relationship with Borrower, except to the extent arising out of such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction. The covenants of this Section shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment of amounts owing with respect to the Warehousing Note. The amount of all such expenses shall, until paid, bear interest at the rate applicable to principal hereunder (including the Default Rate) and be an Obligation secured by any Collateral.
12.4(b) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective parents, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and agents (“Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, actions and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every nature and character arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Damages”) including, without limitation (i) any actual or proposed use by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan, (ii) Borrower entering into or performing this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (iii) with respect to Borrower and its properties and assets, the violation of any applicable law, in each case including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification if a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines (all appeals having been exhausted or waived) that such Indemnified Party acted with willful misconduct or gross negligence. In litigation, or the preparation therefor, Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to select their respective own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing indemnity, Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. If, and to the extent that the obligations of Borrower under this Section 12.4(b) are unenforceable for any reason, Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this Section 12.4(b) shall survive the repayment of the Loan and the termination of the obligations of Administrative Agent and each Lender hereunder.
12.4(c) To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Sections 12.4(a) or 12.4(b) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender’s Ratable Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection with such capacity.
12.5 Financial Information
All financial statements and reports furnished to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement must be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a basis consistent with that applied in preparing the most recent Audited Financial Statement of Borrower provided to Administrative Agent.
12.6 Terms Binding Upon Successors; Survival of Representations
The terms and provisions of this Agreement are binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Administrative Agent, each Lender, and their respective successors and permitted assigns. All of Borrower’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements survive the making of any Warehousing Advance, and, except where a longer period is set forth in this Agreement, remain effective for as long as the Warehousing Commitment is outstanding or there remain any Obligations to be paid or performed.
12.7 Pledge to Federal Reserve Banks
Each Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any portion of its Warehousing Note) to any of the Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 341. No such pledge or assignment or enforcement thereof shall release a Lender from its obligations under any of the Loan Documents.
12.8 Governing Law
This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (excluding the laws applicable to conflicts or choice of law).
12.9 Amendments
This Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except by a written agreement signed by Borrower, Parent, Administrative Agent and each Lender.
12.10 Relationship of the Parties
This Agreement provides for the making of Warehousing Advances by Lenders, the requirement of Warehousing Advances by Borrower, the payment of interest on those Warehousing Advances, and the payment of certain fees by Borrower to Administrative Agent and Lenders. The relationship between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower is limited to that of creditor and secured party on the part of Administrative Agent and each Lender and of debtor on the part of Borrower. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents for compliance with financial covenants and the delivery of financial statements and other operating reports are intended solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and each Lender to protect their interests as creditors and secured party. Nothing in this Agreement creates or may be construed as permitting or obligating Administrative Agent or any Lender to act as a financial or business advisor or consultant to Borrower, as permitting or obligating Administrative Agent or any Lender to control Borrower or to conduct Borrower’s operations, as creating any fiduciary obligation on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender or to Borrower, or as creating any joint venture, partnership, agency or other similar relationship between Administrative Agent, any Lender and Borrower. Borrower acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to obtain the advice of experienced counsel of its own choice in connection with the negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents and to obtain the advice of that counsel with respect to all matters contained in the Loan Documents, including the waivers of jury trial and of punitive,
consequential, special or indirect damages contained in Sections 12.18. Borrower further acknowledges that it is experienced with respect to financial and credit matters and has made its own independent decisions to apply to Lenders for credit and to execute and deliver this Agreement.
12.11 Severability
If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document is declared to be illegal or unenforceable in any respect, that provision is null and void and of no force and effect to the extent of the illegality or unenforceability, and does not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of the Agreement or such other Loan Document.
12.12 Consent to Credit References
Borrower and Parent each consents to the disclosure of information regarding Borrower, Parent and their relationship with Administrative Agent and Lenders to Persons making credit inquiries to Lender. This consent is revocable by Borrower or Parent at any time upon Notice to Administrative Agent as provided in Section 12.3.
12.13 Counterparts
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together constitute but one and the same instrument.
12.14 Headings/Captions
The captions or headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are for convenience only and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
12.15 Entire Agreement
This Agreement, the Warehousing Note and the other Loan Documents are intended by the parties as the final, complete and exclusive statement of the transactions evidenced by thereby. All prior or contemporaneous promises, agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, are deemed to be superseded by this Agreement, the Warehousing Note and the other Loan Documents, and no party is relying on any promise, agreement or understanding not set forth in this Agreement, the Warehousing Note or the other Loan Documents.
12.16 Consent to Jurisdiction

|
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty”) is made and entered into as of this day of June, 2013, by XXXXXX & DUNLOP, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Guarantor”), with an address at 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx. 0000X, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, for the benefit of PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (the “Agent”), as administrative agent for PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as lender and XXXXX FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as lender (collectively, the “Lenders”) with an address at Xxx XXX Xxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx 00000, in consideration of the extension of credit by the Lenders to XXXXXX & DUNLOP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.
WHEREAS, Guarantor previously executed and delivered to Agent that certain Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2011 (the “Original Guaranty”), whereby Guarantor guaranteed the Borrower’s payment and performance under that certain Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2010, between Borrower and Agent, as the same has been amended from time to time (the “Original Agreement”). The Borrower, Guarantor, Agent and Lenders have contemporaneously herewith amended and restated the Original Agreement pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Warehousing Credit and Security Agreement, of even date, among Borrower, Guarantor, Agent and Lenders (the Amended and Restated Warehouse Credit and Security Agreement, as the same may be amended, renewed, extended, restated or otherwise modified is herein the “Credit Agreement”). In connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement, Guarantor has agreed to guarantee the Borrower’s payment and performance thereunder, and to amend and restate the terms of the Original Guaranty pursuant to the terms hereof.
1. Guaranty of Obligations. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor, and becomes surety for, the prompt payment and performance of all loans, advances, debts, liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties owing by the Borrower to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and to the Lenders, arising under or relating to the Credit Agreement (including any interest accruing thereon after maturity, or after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding relating to the Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), and all costs and expenses of the Agent and each Lender incurred in the documentation, negotiation, modification, enforcement, collection of the Credit Agreement and otherwise in connection with any of the foregoing, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (collectively, the “Obligations”). If the Borrower defaults under any such Obligations, the Guarantor will pay the amount due to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders.
2. Nature of Guaranty; Waivers. This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection and the Agent shall not be required or obligated, as a condition of the Guarantor’s liability, to make any demand upon or to pursue any of its rights against the Borrower, or to pursue any rights which may be available to it with respect to any other person who may be liable for the payment of the Obligations.
This is an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing guaranty and will remain in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and the Agent has terminated this Guaranty. This Guaranty will remain in full force and effect even if there is no principal balance outstanding under the Obligations at a particular time or from time to time. This Guaranty will not be
affected by any surrender, exchange, acceptance, compromise or release by the Agent of any other party, or any other guaranty or any security held by it for any of the Obligations, by any failure of the Agent to take any steps to perfect or maintain its lien or security interest in or to preserve its rights to any security or other collateral for any of the Obligations or any guaranty, or by any irregularity, unenforceability or invalidity of any of the Obligations or any part thereof or any security or other guaranty thereof. The Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be affected, modified or impaired by any counterclaim, set-off, recoupment, deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have (directly or indirectly) against the Borrower or the Agent, except payment or performance of the Obligations.
Notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of extensions of credit to the Borrower from time to time, notice of default, diligence, presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for payment, and any defense based upon the Agent’s failure to comply with the notice requirements under Sections 9-611 and 9-612 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time are hereby waived. The Guarantor waives all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of collateral.
The Agent at any time and from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Guarantor, and without impairing or releasing, discharging or modifying the Guarantor’s liabilities hereunder, may (a) change the manner, place, time or terms of payment or performance of or interest rates on, or other terms relating to, any of the Obligations; (b) renew, substitute, modify, amend or alter, or grant consents or waivers relating to any of the Obligations, any other guaranties, or any security for any Obligations or guaranties; (c) apply any and all payments by whomever paid or however realized including any proceeds of any collateral, to any Obligations of the Borrower in such order, manner and amount as the Agent may determine in its sole discretion; (d) settle, compromise or deal with any other person, including the Borrower or the Guarantor, with respect to any Obligations in such manner as the Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion; (e) substitute, exchange or release any security or guaranty; or (f) take such actions and exercise such remedies hereunder as provided herein.
3. Repayments or Recovery from the Agent. If any demand is made at any time upon the Agent for the repayment or recovery of any amount received by it in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and if the Agent repays all or any part of such amount by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such demand, the Guarantor will be and remain liable hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never been received originally by the Agent. The provisions of this section will be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Guarantor in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken will be without prejudice to the Agent’s rights hereunder and will be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable.
4. Financial Statements. Unless compliance is waived in writing by the Agent or until all of the Obligations have been paid in full, the Guarantor will promptly submit to the Agent such information relating to the Guarantor’s affairs (including but not limited to annual financial statements and tax returns for the Guarantor) or any security for the Guaranty as the Agent may reasonably request.
5. Enforceability of Obligations. No modification, limitation or discharge of the Obligations arising out of or by virtue of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law will affect, modify, limit or discharge the Guarantor’s liability in any manner whatsoever and this Guaranty will remain and continue in full force and effect and will be enforceable against the Guarantor to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if any such proceeding had not been instituted. The Guarantor waives all rights and benefits which might accrue to it by reason of any such proceeding and will be liable to the full extent hereunder, irrespective of any
modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of the Borrower that may result from any such proceeding.
6. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be an “Event of Default”: (i) any Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement); (ii) the Guarantor’s failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder; (iii) the falsity, inaccuracy or material breach by the Guarantor of any written warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to the Agent by or on behalf of the Guarantor; or (iv) the termination or attempted termination of this Guaranty. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, (a) the Guarantor shall pay to the Agent the amount of the Obligations; or (b) on demand of the Agent, the Guarantor shall immediately deposit with the Agent, in U.S. dollars, all amounts due or to become due under the Obligations, and the Agent may at any time use such funds to repay the Obligations; or (c) the Agent in its discretion may exercise with respect to any collateral any one or more of the rights and remedies provided a secured party under the applicable version of the Uniform Commercial Code; or (d) the Agent in its discretion may exercise from time to time any other rights and remedies available to it at law, in equity or otherwise.
7. Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against the Guarantor’s money, securities or other property given to the Agent and/or the Lenders by law, the Agent and each of the Lenders shall have, with respect to the Guarantor’s obligations to the Agent and the Lenders under this Guaranty and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and the Guarantor hereby grants the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and the Lenders, a security interest in, and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges and transfers to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and each of the Lenders, all of the Guarantor’s right, title and interest in and to, all of the Guarantor’s deposits, moneys, securities and other property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and each of the Lenders, whether held in a general or special account or deposit, whether held jointly with someone else, or whether held for safekeeping or otherwise. Every such security interest and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to the Guarantor. Every such right of setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder without any action of the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and each of the Lenders, although the Agent may enter such setoff on their books and records at a later time.
8. Intentionally Omitted.
9. Costs. To the extent that the Agent incurs any costs or expenses in protecting or enforcing its rights under the Obligations or this Guaranty, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the costs and expenses of litigation, such costs and expenses will be due on demand, will be included in the Obligations and will bear interest from the incurring or payment thereof at the Default Rate (as defined in any of the Obligations).
10. Postponement of Subrogation. Until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full, expire, are terminated and are not subject to any right of revocation or rescission, the Guarantor postpones and subordinates in favor of the Agent or its designee (and any assignee or potential assignee) any and all rights which the Guarantor may have to (a) assert any claim whatsoever against the Borrower based on subrogation, exoneration, reimbursement, or indemnity or any right of recourse to security for the Obligations with respect to payments made hereunder, and (b) any realization on any property of the Borrower, including participation in any marshalling of the Borrower’s assets.
11. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder (“Notices”) must be in writing and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the Agent and the Guarantor may separately agree,
including electronic mail. Without limiting the foregoing, first-class mail, facsimile transmission and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices. Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to addresses for the Agent and the Guarantor as set forth above or to such other address as either may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this section.
12. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission on the Agent’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Agent’s action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Agent may have under other agreements, at law or in equity. The Agent may proceed in any order against the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other obligor of, or any collateral securing, the Obligations.
13. Illegality. If any provision contained in this Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, it shall not affect or impair the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Guaranty.
14. Changes in Writing. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Guarantor from, any provision of this Guaranty will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Guarantor will entitle the Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.
15. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty (including the documents and instruments referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Guarantor and the Agent with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Guaranty is in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other guarantees from the Guarantor to the Agent.

If this Guaranty is executed by more than one party as Guarantor, the obligations of such persons or entities will be joint and several.
18. Indemnity.
