The Seller is obligated to obtain the related Mortgage Loans from the Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) at Seller’s expense on (or after) the related Repurchase Date. Provided that the applicable conditions in Section 5 have been satisfied and provided further no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, unless the Buyer is notified to the contrary not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one (1) Business Day prior to any such Repurchase Date, on each related Repurchase Date each Mortgage Loan shall automatically become subject to a new Transaction. In such event, the related Repurchase Date on which such Transaction becomes subject to a new Transaction shall become the “Purchase Date” for such Transaction. Seller shall deliver a written Transaction Request to Agent requesting that the Mortgage Loans become subject to such new Transaction prior to such Purchase Date. For each new Transaction, unless otherwise agreed, (y) the accrued and unpaid Price Differential shall be settled in cash on the Payment Date in the month after the related Purchase Date, and (z) the Pricing Rate shall be as set forth in the Pricing Side Letter. The term of any Transaction shall not exceed one month or extend beyond the Termination Date.

(b) The Seller hereby promises to pay to the Buyer on each Payment Date, the Price Differential on the unpaid Repurchase Price of each Transaction for the period from and including the Purchase Date of such Transaction to but excluding the Repurchase Date of such Transaction, at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate; provided, that in no event shall such rate per annum exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller hereby promises to pay to the Buyer, interest at the applicable Post-Default Rate on any Repurchase Price and on any other amount payable by the Seller hereunder that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or by mandatory prepayment or otherwise) for the period from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date the same is paid in full. Accrued Price Differential on each Transaction shall be payable monthly on the Repurchase Date each month and for the last month of the Repurchase Agreement on the Repurchase Date of such last month and on the Termination Date; provided, that the Buyer may, in its sole discretion, require accrued Price Differential to be paid simultaneously with any prepayment of Repurchase Price that is made by the Seller on a day other than the Termination Date. Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall accrue daily and shall be payable upon such accrual. Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Buyer shall give notice thereof to the Seller.

(c) It is understood and agreed that, unless and until a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Seller shall be entitled to the proceeds of the Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions outstanding hereunder subject to the terms and provisions of this Repurchase Agreement. Seller shall deposit all Income or other proceeds received with respect to each Mortgage Loan after the related Purchase Date into the Blocked Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt. Unless and until a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Seller may withdraw amounts from the Blocked Account on each Repurchase Date so long as all amounts then due and payable to Buyer have been paid in full.

-31-

(d) With respect to each Mortgage Loan subject to a Takeout Commitment, the Seller shall instruct the related Takeout Investor to remit directly to the Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Funding Deposit Account, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day all Takeout Proceeds in an amount equal to or greater than the Repurchase Price for such Mortgage Loan. Simultaneously, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer via facsimile or electronic mail a purchase advice (the “Purchase Advice”) and shall indicate on such Purchase Advice the Mortgage Loan identification number which identified the applicable Eligible Mortgage Loan when it was purchased by the Buyer hereunder. A portion of the Takeout Proceeds in an amount equal to the Recognized Value of such Mortgage Loan shall be applied to the Repurchase Price of the outstanding Transactions. Upon receipt by the Buyer of payment of the Repurchase Price in respect of such Mortgage Loan (not taking into account any Price Differential which may be paid subsequently pursuant to the terms of this Repurchase Agreement), the Buyer shall cause the Funding Account Bank to release and remit to the Seller the amount of any Takeout Proceeds in excess of the Recognized Value of such Mortgage Loans (the “Remittance Amount”); provided, that, both immediately before and after giving effect to such release and remittance, (i) there is no Default or Event of Default under this Repurchase Agreement or any other Repurchase Document and (ii) there is no Margin Deficiency. To the extent that a Margin Deficiency exists or would be created by the release of the Remittance Amount or a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Buyer shall be entitled to retain the Remittance Amount. In the event that the Purchase Advice indicates that some of the proceeds forwarded to the Buyer do not belong to the Buyer or the Seller (such amount, the “Excess Proceeds”), then (i) the Seller shall provide the Buyer with a Takeout Proceeds Identification Letter, and (ii) upon confirmation by the Buyer that the information set forth in the Purchase Advice matches the information that the Buyer has in its possession with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the Buyer shall promptly remit by wire transfer the Excess Proceeds in accordance with the Seller’s instructions. If funds are received before 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, but either (A) no Purchase Advice is received or (B) such funds are not properly identified on the related Purchase Advice (a “Purchase Advice Deficiency”), then such funds shall be retained by the Buyer, and the Transactions made in respect of the related Mortgage Loans shall continue to accrue Price Differential under this Repurchase Agreement, until such Purchase Advice Deficiency is remedied, and the Mortgage Loan subject to such Purchase Advice shall not be released until such Purchase Advice Deficiency is remedied. In no event shall such Purchase Advice be back-dated to the date of its issuance. The Buyer shall not be liable to the Seller or any other Person to the extent that the Buyer follows instructions given to it by the Seller in a Takeout Proceeds Identification Letter.

2.10 Margin Maintenance.

(a) If at any time the aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions then outstanding hereunder exceeds the aggregate Recognized Value of all Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions and such excess is greater than the Margin Threshold (a “Margin Deficiency”), then Buyer may at its sole option, and by notice to Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Margin Call”), require Seller to either:

(i) deposit cash into the Margin Call Reserve Account so that the aggregate Recognized Value of all Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions, including any such

-32-

cash deposited into the Margin Call Reserve Account by Seller, will thereupon equal or exceed the aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions then outstanding hereunder; or

(ii) pay one or more Repurchase Prices, as applicable, in an amount sufficient to reduce the related Purchase Price so that the aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions then outstanding is less than or equal to the aggregate Recognized Value of all Mortgage Loans subject to such Transaction;

provided, however, that the Margin Threshold shall not be applicable to a Wet-Ink Mortgage Loan that exceeds the Maximum Dwell Time.

If Buyer delivers a Margin Call to Seller on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day, then Seller shall transfer cash to Buyer no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) that same day. If Buyer delivers a Margin Call to Seller after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day, then Seller shall be required to transfer cash by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the next subsequent Business Day. Notice of a Margin Call may be provided by Buyer to Seller electronically or in writing, such as via e-mail.

(b) If at any time the aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions then outstanding hereunder exceeds the Maximum Amount then in effect, the Seller shall at such time make a payment to the Buyer, in respect of the aggregate Repurchase Price such that, after giving effect to such payment, the aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions then outstanding hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Amount then in effect.

Section 3. Payments; Computations; Etc.

3.01 Payments.

(a) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of Repurchase Price, including Price Differential, and other amounts to be paid by the Seller under this Repurchase Agreement, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Buyer, to the Funding Deposit Account, not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date on which such payment shall become due (and each such payment made after such time on such due date shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). The Seller acknowledges that it has no rights of withdrawal from the foregoing account.

(b) Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided herein, if the due date of any payment under this Repurchase Agreement would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and Price Differential shall accrue with respect to the amount of any Purchase Price so extended for the period of such extension.

3.02 Computations. Price Differential on the Transactions shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable.

-33-

3.03 Regulatory Capital Events; Costs.

(a) Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any of Buyer’s reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, including, but not limited to, due diligence review and, in the event that Buyer has reason to believe there is an issue with the enforceability or priority of the Lien securing any Mortgage Loan or any additional Lien or encumbrance has been filed with respect to any Mortgage Loan on any Mortgage Loan, Title Inquiry costs with respect to such Mortgage Loan and reasonable out-of-pocket attorney’s fees, incurred by Buyer in determining the acceptability to Buyer of any Mortgage Loans. Seller shall pay the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of Buyer’s counsel in connection with the Repurchase Documents, subject, in the case of fees incurred prior to the Effective Date, to the maximum amount stated in the Pricing Side Letter. Seller shall also pay, or reimburse Buyer if Buyer shall pay, any termination fee that may be due any Servicer. Reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees for any subsequent amendments to this Agreement or related documents (other than any amendments or documents required in connection with repurchase transactions by Buyer under Section 13.21 or any assignments or participations by Buyer under Section 13.10) shall be borne by Seller. Seller shall pay ongoing custodial fees and expenses as set forth in the Custodial Agreement, and any other ongoing fees and expenses under any other Repurchase Document.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Regulatory Capital Event after the date hereof, from time to time, upon demand by Buyer (with a copy to Custodian), Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the actual increased costs incurred by Buyer resulting from such Regulatory Capital Event (as specified by Buyer); provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to compensate Buyer for any increased costs incurred prior to the date that Buyer notifies Seller of such Regulatory Capital Event giving rise to such increased costs (except to the extent that such Regulatory Capital Event is applied retroactively in which case such six (6) month period shall be extended to include such period of retroactive effect). Buyer shall not allocate any such increased costs to Seller in any manner that adversely selects this Agreement or the transactions hereunder from other similar facilities of Buyer.

(c) With respect to any Transaction, Buyer may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to Seller in acting upon, any request or other communication that Buyer reasonably believes to have been given or made by a person authorized to enter into a Transaction on Seller’s behalf, whether or not such person is listed on the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.02(b) hereof. In each such case, Seller hereby waives the right to dispute Buyer’s record of the terms of the request or other communication.

(d) Notwithstanding the assignment of the Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan to Buyer, Seller agrees and covenants with Buyer to enforce diligently Seller’s rights and remedies set forth in the Mortgage Loan Documents.

(e) (i) Any and all payments by or on account of Seller or Guarantor under any Repurchase Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If an applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any sums payable by such withholding agent under any Repurchase Document, then such withholding agent shall make be entitled to make such deductions or withholdings and shall timely pay the full

-34-

amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law; and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Seller shall be increased as necessary so that after such deductions or withholdings have been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.03(e)(i)) the applicable recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

(ii) The Seller shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(iii) Seller and Guarantor shall indemnify Buyer, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.03(e)) payable or paid by Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Buyer and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth a calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Seller by Buyer or on behalf of Buyer shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Seller to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.03(e), Seller shall deliver to the Buyer the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer.

(v) Any Buyer and any Buyer assignee that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Repurchase Document shall deliver to each of Seller and the Guarantor, at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller or the Guarantor, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller or the Guarantor as will permit payments made hereunder to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Buyer and any Buyer assignee, if reasonably requested by Seller or Guarantor, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller or Guarantor as will enable Seller or Guarantor to determine whether or not such Buyer or Buyer assignee is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in clauses (v)(A), (v)(B) and (v)(D), below) shall not be required if in the Buyer’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Buyer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(A) any Buyer or Buyer assignee that is a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to the Seller and the Guarantor on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a Buyer under this Repurchase Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Seller or the Guarantor) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 certifying that it is not subject to backup withholding tax;

-35-

(B) any Buyer or Buyer assignee which is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Seller and the Guarantor (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a Buyer under this Repurchase Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Seller and the Guarantor), whichever of the following is applicable: (I) in the case of a Buyer claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Repurchase Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Repurchase Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty, (II) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, (III) in the case of such non-U.S. Person claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code (x) a duly executed certificate, in a form reasonable acceptable to Seller (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”), to the effect that such non-U.S. Person is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or (IV) to the extent such non-U.S. person is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to Seller, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such non-U.S. person is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such non-U.S. person are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such non-U.S. person may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to Seller on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Buyer or Buyer assignee which is not a “U.S. Person” shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Seller and the Guarantor (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such non-U.S. person becomes a Buyer under this Repurchase Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Seller or the Guarantor), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed. together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by law to permit Seller or Guarantor to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Buyer or Buyer assignee under any Repurchase Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or assignee were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting

-36-

requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Buyer or assignee shall deliver to Seller or Guarantor at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller or Guarantor such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Seller or Guarantor as may be necessary for Seller or Guarantor to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Buyer or assignee has complied with such Buyer’s or assignee’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.03(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Buyer and Buyer assignee agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Seller and Guarantor in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) [Reserved]

(g) If Buyer or Buyer assignee determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to Section 3.03(e) (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 3.03(e)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or, without duplication, additional amounts paid, by Seller or Guarantor under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by Buyer or Buyer assignee and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the indemnifying party, upon the request of Buyer or Buyer assignee, agrees to repay the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph to Buyer or Buyer assignee, as applicable (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event Buyer or Buyer assignee is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.03(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 3.03(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.03 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Buyer, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under all Repurchase Documents.

(i) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness

-37-

of Seller that is secured by the Mortgage Loans, and the Mortgage Loans as owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default. Buyer and Seller agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Mortgage Loans and that they will take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

(j) If by reason of the actual or anticipated compliance by Buyer or any of its Affiliates with the Basel III Regulations (without regard to whether any Basel III Regulations are then in effect), Buyer shall at any time suffer or incur (i) any explicit or implicit charge, assessment, cost or expense by reason of the amount or type of assets, capital or supply of funding Buyer or any of its Affiliates is required or expected to maintain in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, without regard to (A) whether such charge, assessment, cost or expense is imposed or recognized internally, externally or inter-company or (B) whether it is determined in reference to a reduction in the rate of return on Buyer’s or such Affiliate’s assets or capital, an inherent cost of the establishment or maintenance of a reserve of stable funding, a reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by Buyer or such Affiliate or otherwise, or (ii) any other imputed cost or expense arising by reason of the actual or anticipated compliance by Buyer or any of its Affiliates with the Basel III Regulations, then, upon demand by Buyer, Seller shall pay to Buyer such amount as will, in the determination of Buyer, compensate Buyer therefor; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to compensate Buyer for any such charges, assessments, costs or expenses incurred prior to the date that Buyer notifies Seller of such charge, assessment, cost or expense. Buyer shall not allocate any such charges, assessments, costs or expenses to Seller or the transactions hereunder in any manner that adversely selects this Agreement from other similar facilities of Buyer. A certificate of Buyer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Buyer under this Section shall be delivered to Seller and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(k) If Buyer provides notice to Seller under either Section 3.03(a) or 3.03(h) and demands compensation for such increased charges, assessments, costs or expenses, Seller shall have the right to designate the Termination Date by written notice given to Buyer at least thirty (30) days before such Termination Date has occurred and Seller shall only be obligated to pay Buyer such increase in charges, assessments, costs or expenses to the extent such amounts are reasonably necessary to compensate Buyer from the date of the notice through the Termination Date.

Section 4. Purchased Items.

4.01 Purchased Items; Security Interest.

(a) Pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian shall hold the Mortgage Loan Documents as exclusive bailee and agent for the benefit of the Buyer pursuant to terms of the Custodial Agreement and shall deliver to the Buyer the Master Trust Receipts each to the effect that it has reviewed such Mortgage Loan Documents in the manner and to the extent required by the Custodial Agreement and identifying any deficiencies in such Mortgage Loan Documents as so reviewed.

-38-

(b) All of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under each of the following items of property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and wherever located, is hereinafter referred to as the “Purchased Items:”

(i) all Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, the related Servicing Rights). For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed by the Seller that the grant of a security interest by the Seller to the Buyer in any Mortgage Loan shall not be released or otherwise affected due to the fact that any Mortgage Loan is not an Eligible Mortgage Loan or that the Recognized Value thereof is zero dollars or is reduced, including if it is reduced to zero dollars, at any time;

(ii) all Mortgage Loan Documents, including without limitation all promissory notes, and all Servicing Records, Servicing Agreements and any other collateral pledged or otherwise relating to such Mortgage Loans, together with all files, documents, instruments, surveys, certificates, correspondence, appraisals, computer programs, computer storage media, accounting records and other books and records relating thereto, including electronic records;

(iii) all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any Servicing Records or other documents which constitute a part of the Mortgage File or Servicing File, all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any Records or other documents which constitute a part of the Mortgage File;

(iv) all mortgage guaranties and insurance (issued by governmental agencies or otherwise) and any mortgage insurance certificate or other document evidencing such mortgage guaranties or insurance relating to any Mortgage Loan and all claims and payments thereunder;

(v) all other insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property;

(vi) all purchase agreements or other agreements, contracts (and all rights to receive documentation relating thereto) or any related Takeout Commitments now existing or hereafter arising, to the extent covering any part of the foregoing Purchased Items, all rights to deliver such Mortgage Loans to Takeout Investors or to permanent investors and other purchasers pursuant thereto and all proceeds resulting from the disposition of such Purchased Items pursuant thereto, including the Seller’s right and entitlement to receive the entire Takeout Price specified in each Takeout Commitment for the related Purchased Items;

(vii) a pro rata portion of all Interest Rate Protection Agreements, to the extent relating to or constituting any and all of the foregoing;

(xi) any and all replacements, substitutions, distributions on or proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.

(c) The Seller and the Buyer intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to the Buyer of the Purchased Items (including, without limitation, the related Servicing Rights) and not loans from the Buyer to the Seller secured by the Purchased Items. However, in order to preserve the Buyer’s rights under this Repurchase Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents in the event that a court or other forum recharacterizes the Transactions hereunder as loans, and as security for the performance by the Seller of all of the Seller’s obligations to the Buyer under the Repurchase Documents and the Transactions entered into hereunder, the Seller hereby assigns, pledges and grants a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Purchased Items to the Buyer, to secure the payment of the Repurchase Price on all Transactions and all other amounts owing to the Buyer hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents (collectively, and together with the pledge of Servicing Rights in the immediately preceding sentence, the “Related Credit Enhancement”). The Related Credit Enhancement is hereby pledged as further security for Seller’s Obligations to Buyer hereunder. The Seller agrees to xxxx its computer records and tapes to evidence the interests granted to the Buyer hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed by the Seller that the grant of a security interest by the Seller to the Buyer in any Mortgage Loan shall not be released or otherwise affected due to the fact that any Mortgage Loan is not an Eligible Mortgage Loan or that the Recognized Value thereof is zero dollars or is reduced, including if it is reduced to zero dollars, at any time.

4.02 Further Documentation. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Buyer and at the sole expense of the Seller, the Seller will promptly and duly execute and deliver, or will promptly cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments and documents and take such further action as the Buyer may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Repurchase Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the Liens created hereby. The Seller also hereby authorizes the Buyer to file any such financing or continuation statement without the signature of the Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law.

-40-

change the location where it maintains its records with respect to the Purchased Items or (iii) reincorporate or reorganize under the laws of another jurisdiction unless it shall have given the Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to the Buyer all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as the Buyer shall reasonably request and taken all other actions deemed reasonably necessary by the Buyer to continue its perfected status in the Purchased Items with the same or better priority. The Seller’s organizational identification number is 4509384; the Seller’s federal tax identification number is 00-0000000. The Seller shall promptly notify the Buyer of any change in such organizational or federal tax identification number.

4.04 The Buyer’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

(a) The Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Buyer and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Seller and in the name of the Seller or in its own name, from time to time in the Buyer’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Repurchase Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Repurchase Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller hereby gives the Buyer the power and right, on behalf of the Seller, without assent by, but with notice to, the Seller, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

(i) in the name of the Seller or its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any mortgage insurance or payable on or on account of any other Purchased Items and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any such mortgage insurance or with respect to any other Purchased Items whenever payable;

(ii) to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Purchased Items; and

The Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. This power of attorney shall not revoke any prior powers of attorney granted by the Seller.

(b) The Seller also authorizes the Buyer, at any time and from time to time, (i) to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 4.07 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Purchased Items and (ii) to file any initial financing statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements with or without the signature of the Seller as authorized by applicable law, as applicable to all or any part of the Purchased Items.

(c) The powers conferred on the Buyer are solely to protect the interests of the Buyer in the Purchased Items and shall not impose any duty upon the Buyer to exercise any such powers. The Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither the Buyer nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Seller for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

4.05 Performance by The Buyer of The Seller’s Repurchase Document Obligations. If the Seller fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Repurchase Documents and the Buyer itself performs or complies, or otherwise causes performance or compliance, with such agreement, the out-of-pocket expenses of the Buyer incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate, shall be payable by the Seller to the Buyer upon five (5) days’ notice that such amounts are due and payable, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, in which case such amounts shall be due and payable on demand and, in either case, shall constitute Repurchase Obligations.

4.06 Proceeds. If a Default shall occur and be continuing, (a) all Income and other proceeds of Purchased Items received by the Seller consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by the Seller in trust for the Buyer, segregated from other funds of the Seller, and shall forthwith upon receipt by the Seller be turned over to the Buyer in the exact form received by the Seller (duly endorsed by the Seller to the Buyer, if required) and (b) any and all such proceeds received by the Buyer (whether from the Seller or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of the Buyer, be held by the Buyer as collateral security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Buyer against, the Repurchase Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), such application to be in such order as the Buyer shall elect. Any balance of such proceeds remaining after the Repurchase Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Repurchase Agreement shall have been terminated shall be paid over to the Seller or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. For purposes hereof, proceeds shall

-42-

include, but not be limited to, all principal and interest payments, all prepayments and payoffs, insurance claims, condemnation awards, sale proceeds, real estate owned rents and any other income and all other amounts received with respect to the Purchased Items.

4.07 Remedies. If a Default shall occur and be continuing, the Buyer may, at its option, enter into one or more interest rate protection agreements or other hedging arrangements covering all or a portion of the Mortgage Loans purchased by the Buyer hereunder, and the Seller shall be responsible for all damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Buyer relating to or arising out of such Interest Rate Protection Agreements, including without limitation any net losses (after giving effect to any gain in the sale of the related Mortgage Loans) resulting from such Interest Rate Protection Agreements. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Buyer may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Repurchase Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Repurchase Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the Seller or any other Person (each and all of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Purchased Items, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Purchased Items or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as an entirety at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Buyer or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Purchased Items so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. The Seller further agrees, at the Buyer’s request, to assemble the Purchased Items and make them available to the Buyer at places which the Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at the Seller’s premises or elsewhere. The Buyer shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Purchased Items or in any way relating to the Purchased Items or the rights of the Buyer hereunder, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Repurchase Obligations, in such order as the Buyer may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Buyer of any other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including without limitation Sections 9-608(a) and 9-615(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code, need the Buyer account for the surplus, if any, to the Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Seller waives all claims, damages and demands the Seller may acquire against the Buyer arising out of the exercise by the Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Buyer. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Purchased Items shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. The Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate) if the proceeds of any sale or

-43-

other disposition of the Purchased Items are insufficient to pay the Repurchase Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Buyer to collect such deficiency.

4.08 Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Purchased Items. The Buyer’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Purchased Items in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Buyer deals with similar property for its own account. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Buyer nor any of its respective directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Purchased Items or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Purchased Items upon the request of the Seller or otherwise.

4.09 Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Purchased Items are irrevocable and are powers coupled with an interest.

Schedule 1

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE: MORTGAGE LOANS

Part I. Eligible Mortgage Loans

As to each Mortgage Loan that is a Mortgage Loan subject to any Transaction outstanding on a Purchase Date (and the related Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Assignment of Mortgage and Mortgaged Property), the Seller shall be deemed to make the following representations and warranties to the Buyer as of such date and at all times a Mortgage Loan is subject to a Transaction. With respect to any representations and warranties made to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, in the event that it is discovered that the circumstances with respect to the related Mortgage Loan are not accurately reflected in such representation and warranty notwithstanding that such representation and warranty is made to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, such Mortgage Loan shall be assigned a Recognized Value of zero. Certain defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined in the Repurchase Agreement appear in Part II to this Schedule 1:

(a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the Mortgage Loan is complete, true and correct in all material respects.

(b) Payments Current. All payments required to be made up to the Purchase Date for the Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note have been made and credited. No payment required under the Mortgage Loan is delinquent nor has any payment under the Mortgage Loan been delinquent at any time since the origination of the Mortgage Loan. The first Monthly Payment shall be made, or shall have been made, with respect to the Mortgage Loan on its Due Date or within the grace period, all in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note.

(c) No Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults in complying with the terms of the Mortgage securing the Mortgage Loan, and all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. Neither the Seller nor the Qualified Originator from which the Seller acquired the Mortgage Loan has advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan, whichever is earlier, to the day which precedes by one month the Due Date of the first installment of principal and interest thereunder.

(d) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the date of origination; except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of the Buyer, and which has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, and the title insurer, to the

Schedule 1-1

extent required, and, with respect to the FHA, RHS and VA Loans, has been approved by the FHA, to the extent required by the FHA Insurance Contract, the RHS to the extent required of the Rural Housing Service Guaranty or the VA, to the extent of the VA Guaranty Agreement, and its terms are reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, and the title insurer, to the extent required by such policy and with respect to any FHA Loan, the FHA to the extent required by the FHA Insurance Contract or FHA Regulations, or with respect to any VA Loan, the VA to the extent of the VA Guaranty Agreement, or with respect to any RHS Loan, the RHS to the extent of the Rural Housing Service Guaranty, and which assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

(e) No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan was a debtor in any state or Federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated. The Seller has no knowledge nor has it received any notice that any Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

(f) Hazard Insurance. The Mortgaged Property is insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, and to the extent required by the Seller as of the date of origination consistent with the Guidelines, against earthquake and other risks insured against by Persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged Property, in an amount not less than the lesser of (i) 100% of the replacement cost (as calculated by a Qualified Insurer) of all improvements to the Mortgaged Property, and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, provided that, such amount shall be not less than the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and shall be consistent with the amount that would have been required as of the date of origination in accordance with the Guidelines. If any portion of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by any federal Governmental Authority as having special flood hazards, and flood insurance is available, a flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines of the Federal Emergency Management Agency is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (2) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1974. All such insurance policies (collectively, the “hazard insurance policy”) contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller, its successors and assigns (including without limitation, subsequent owners of the Mortgage Loan), as mortgagee, and may not be reduced, terminated or canceled without 30 days’ prior written notice to the mortgagee. No such notice has been received by the Seller. All premiums on such insurance policy have been paid. The related Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such

Schedule 1-2

insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect. The Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by the Seller.

(g) Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, laws with respect to unfair and deceptive lending practices and Predatory Lending Practices truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations.

(h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission. The Seller has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has the Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor.

(i) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is located in an Acceptable State as identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a single parcel of real property with a dwelling which is acceptable to the related Agency pursuant to the applicable Agency Guide. No residence or dwelling is a mobile home or a manufactured dwelling. No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial purposes.

(j) Valid First Lien. The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien on the real property included in the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

(1) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

(2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and to any applicable

Schedule 1-3

Agency, and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the applicable Agency, and originator of the Mortgage Loan and (a) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal; and

(3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property, and which will not in any way prevent realization of the full benefits of any FHA Insurance Contract, VA Guaranty Agreement or Rural Housing Service Guaranty.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the property described therein and the Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same to the Buyer. The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage.

(k) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor or guarantor, if applicable, in connection with a Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms. All parties to the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any such agreement, and the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement have been duly and properly executed by such related parties. No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of any Person, including, without limitation, the Mortgagor, any appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party involved in the origination of the Mortgage Loan. The Seller has reviewed all of the documents constituting the Servicing File and has made such inquiries as it deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set forth herein.

(l) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan (unless it is an FHA §203(k) Loan) has been closed and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no further requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

(m) Ownership. The Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is not assigned or pledged, and the Seller has good, indefeasible and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer, pledge and assign the Mortgage Loan to the Buyer free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement

Schedule 1-4

with, any other party, to assign, transfer and pledge each Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Repurchase Agreement and following the pledge of each Mortgage Loan, the Buyer will hold such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest except any such security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Repurchase Agreement.

(n) Doing Business. All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as Mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (i) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located and all applicable Agency Guides, and (ii) either (A) organized under the laws of such state, (B) qualified to do business in such state, (C) a federal savings and loan association, a savings bank or a national bank having a principal office in such state, or (D) not doing business in such state.

(o) LTV. No Mortgage Loan has an LTV greater than 100%, unless otherwise eligible for sale or securitization under the applicable Agency Guide. Each Mortgage Loan which is required to be subject to a Primary Insurance Policy pursuant to the Agency Guide of the applicable Agency is and will be subject to such a Primary Insurance Policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, which insures that portion of the Mortgage Loan in excess of the portion of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property as required by such Agency. All provisions of such Primary Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, such policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. Any Mortgage subject to any such Primary Insurance Policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain such insurance and to pay all premiums and charges in connection therewith. The Mortgage Interest Rate for the Mortgage Loan does not include any such insurance premium. No Mortgage Loan is subject to a lender-paid primary mortgage insurance policy.

(p) Title Insurance. Other than each Cooperative Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae, as applicable, and with respect to FHA Loans, RHS Loans and VA Loans, the FHA, RHS or VA, as the case may be, and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxxxx Mac, or Xxxxxx Mae, as applicable, and with respect to FHA Loans, RHS Loans and VA Loans, the FHA, RHS or the VA, as the case may be, and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring the Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan (or to the extent a Mortgage Note provides for negative amortization, the maximum amount of negative amortization in accordance with the Mortgage), subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of paragraph (j) of this Part I of Schedule 1, and in the case of adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment to the Mortgage Note Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any

Schedule 1-5

interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception with a specific survey reading. The Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Repurchase Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder or servicer of the related Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by the Seller.

(q) No Defaults. Other than Mortgage Loans which are no more than thirty (30) days past due, there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and neither the Seller nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.

(r) No Mechanics’ Liens. There are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the Mortgage.

(s) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property. No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning and building law, ordinance or regulation.

(t) Origination; Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was originated by or in conjunction with a Mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or similar banking institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority. Monthly Payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty (60) days after funds were disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Note Interest Rate is adjusted, with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date to equal the Index plus the Gross Margin (rounded up or down to the nearest .125%), subject to the Mortgage Note Interest Rate Cap. The Mortgage Note is payable on the first day of each month. Other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan identified on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule as an interest-only Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan is payable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest, which installments of interest, with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, are subject to change due to the adjustments to the Mortgage Note Interest Rate on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date, with interest calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the

Schedule 1-6

stated maturity date, over an original term of not more than thirty (30) years from commencement of amortization. With respect to each Mortgage Loan identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as an interest-only Mortgage Loan, the interest-only period shall not exceed ten (10) years (or such other period specified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) and following the expiration of such interest-only period, the remaining Monthly Payments shall be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over the remaining term of the Mortgage Loan and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. The term of any Mortgage Loan shall not exceed thirty (30) years.

(u) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage Note has a stated maturity. The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property. There is no homestead or other exemption available to a Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage.

(v) Conformance with Guidelines and Agency Standards. The Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with the Guidelines and all provisions of the applicable Agency Guide. The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to Xxxxxxx Mac, Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxx Xxx, as applicable, and the Seller has not made any representations to a Mortgagor that are inconsistent with the mortgage instruments used.

(w) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property or Cooperative Unit. As of the Purchase Date the Mortgaged Property or Cooperative Unit is lawfully occupied under applicable law. All inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities. The Seller has not received notification from any Governmental Authority that the Mortgaged Property or Cooperative Unit is in material non-compliance with such laws or regulations, is being used, operated or occupied unlawfully or has failed to have or obtain such inspection, licenses or certificates, as the case may be. The Seller has not received notice of any violation or failure to conform with any such law, ordinance, regulation, standard, license or certificate.

(x) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in clause (j) above.

(y) Deeds of Trust. In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized and duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Custodian or the Buyer to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor.

Schedule 1-7

(z) Delivery of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and any other documents required to be delivered under the Custodial Agreement for each Mortgage Loan (other than Wet-Ink Mortgage Loans) have been delivered to the Custodian. The Seller or its agent is in possession of a complete, true and accurate Mortgage File in compliance with the Custodial Agreement, except for such documents the originals of which have been delivered to the Custodian.

(aa) Transfer of Mortgage Loans. With respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Mortgage Loan, the Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located with respect to each Cooperative Mortgage Loan, the UCC-3 assignment is in a form suitable for filing in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.

(bb) Due-On-Sale. The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property or Cooperative Unit, as applicable, is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee thereunder.

(cc) No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests. The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by the Seller, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it contain any other similar provisions which may constitute a “buydown” provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature.

(dd) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the Purchase Date have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. With respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first lien priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the Mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae, Xxxxxxx Mac, or Xxxxxx Mae, as applicable. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.

(ee) Mortgaged Property Undamaged. The Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property or Cooperative Unit as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended and each Mortgaged Property is in good repair. There have not been any condemnation proceedings with respect to the Mortgaged Property and the Seller has no knowledge of any such proceedings.

(ff) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits; Interest Rate Adjustments. The origination and collection practices used by the originator, each servicer of the Mortgage Loan and the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been in all respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable laws and regulations, and have been in all respects legal and proper

Schedule 1-8

and each FHA Loan, RHS Loan and VA Loan has been serviced in accordance with all FHA, RHS and VA policies and regulations, as applicable. With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments, all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, the Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All Escrow Payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law. An escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law and, where required under the applicable Guidelines or requested by the related Mortgagor, (for Mortgage Loans other than Cooperative Mortgage Loans) has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due the Seller have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note. All Mortgage Note Interest Rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state, federal and local law has been properly paid and credited. The Mortgage Loan was originated and has been serviced in a manner such that the Mortgage Loan will be eligible for the maximum amount of insurance made available by the FHA, RHS or VA, as the case may be, without any right of offset, counterclaim or defense by the FHA, the RHS or VA, as the case may be.

(gg) Conversion to Fixed Interest Rate. With respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan is not convertible to a fixed interest rate Mortgage Loan.

(hh) Other Insurance Policies. No action, inaction or event has occurred and no state of facts exists or has existed that has resulted or will result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any applicable special hazard insurance policy, PMI Policy or bankruptcy bond, irrespective of the cause of such failure of coverage. In connection with the placement of any such insurance, no commission, fee, or other compensation has been or will be received by the Seller or by any officer, director, or employee of the Seller or any designee of the Seller or any corporation in which the Seller or any officer, director, or employee had a financial interest at the time of placement of such insurance.

Schedule 1-12

(4) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Cooperative Mortgage or the mortgage note related thereto and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.

The Cooperative Loan Documents are assignable to the Buyer and its successors and assigns and have been duly assigned to the Buyer in accordance with this sub‑section (7).

(8) The Security Agreement contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Cooperative Shares of the benefits of the security provided thereby.

Schedule 1-13

(9) As of the date of origination the related Cooperative Project is insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Cooperative Project is located.

(5) Neither the Seller, its servicer, nor any prior holder or servicer of the Mortgage Loan has engaged in any action or inaction which would result in the curtailment of a payment (or nonpayment thereof) by the FHA, RHS or the VA; and

(6) All actions required to be taken by the Seller or the related Qualified Originator (if different from the Seller) to cause the Buyer, as owner of the FHA Loan, VA Loan or RHS Loan, to be eligible for the full benefits available under the applicable insurance or guaranty agreement have been taken by such entity.

FORM OF PMC PLEDGE AGREEMENT

PLEDGE AGREEMENT, dated as of August 21, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), made by PENNYMAC CORP. (the “Pledgor”) in favor of DEUTSCHE BANK AG, CAYMAN ISLANDS BRANCH (the “Buyer”).

RECITALS

From time to time, Seller (as defined below) will purchase certain mortgage loans and real estate owned properties from the Pledgor pursuant to one or more purchase agreements (collectively, the “Purchase Agreements”).

Pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of August 21, 2017 (as amended, modified and/or restated. the “Repurchase Agreement”), between the Buyer and PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“Seller”), the Buyer has agreed to enter into transactions with Seller, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein. It is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Buyer to enter into Transactions with Seller under the Repurchase Agreement that the Pledgor shall have executed and delivered this Agreement to the Buyer.

The Pledgor acknowledges that it will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the Transactions between the Buyer and Seller under the Repurchase Agreement.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Buyer to engage in Transactions under the Repurchase Agreement with the Seller, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Pledgor hereby agrees to execute and deliver this Agreement to the Buyer.

1. Defined Terms.

(a) Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Repurchase Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Repurchase Agreement.

(b) “Assets” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2(a) hereof.

(d) The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and section and paragraph references are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified.

(e) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.

Exhibit Q-1

2. Security Interest.

(a) Security Interest. As a precautionary measure in the event that the conveyance of any Mortgage Loans to Seller from the Pledgor is determined not to be a true sale or the separate existence of Seller from the Pledgor is otherwise disregarded at any point, in order to further secure the Obligations, Pledgor, to the extent of its rights therein, hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in Pledgor’s rights, title and interest (but not its obligations) in each Purchased Mortgage Loan conveyed to Seller (each, an “Asset”), the Records, all Servicing Rights related to the Assets (to the extent of Pledgor’s rights therein), any Property relating to any Assets, all insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Asset or any related Property that secures an Asset, including but not limited to any payments or proceeds under any related primary insurance or hazard insurance, any Income relating to any Asset, any other contract rights, accounts and any other payments, rights to payment (including payments of interest or finance charges) and general intangibles to the extent that the foregoing relates to any Asset and any other assets relating to such Asset (including, without limitation, any other accounts) or any interest in the Assets, as are specified on a Confirmation and/or Master Trust Receipt, and any proceeds and distributions and any other property, rights, title or interests with respect to any of the foregoing, in all instances, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created (collectively, the “Pledged Collateral”). Pledgor hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Pledged Collateral as Buyer, at its option, may deem reasonable and appropriate. Pledgor shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 2.

(b) Buyer’s Appointment as Attorney in Fact. Pledgor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Buyer and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney in fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Pledgor, and in the name of Pledgor, or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement and to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, in each case, subject to the terms of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Pledgor hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Pledgor, without assent by, but with notice to, Pledgor, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

(i) in the name of Pledgor, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any other Pledged Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any other Pledged Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Pledged Collateral; and

(iii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Pledged Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct including, without limitation, any payment agent with

Exhibit Q-2

respect to any Mortgage Loan; (B) to send “goodbye” letters on behalf of Pledgor as the same may relate to any Pledged Collateral; (C) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Pledged Collateral; (D) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Pledged Collateral; (E) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Pledged Collateral or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Pledged Collateral; (F) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Pledgor with respect to any Pledged Collateral; (G) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (F) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; (H) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Pledged Collateral as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Pledgor’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Pledged Collateral and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Pledgor might do.

Pledgor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. In addition to the foregoing, Pledgor agrees to execute a power of attorney in the form of Exhibit A hereto, to be delivered on the date hereof.

Pledgor also authorizes Buyer, if an Event of Default shall have occurred, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 9 of the Repurchase Agreement, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

The powers conferred on Buyer hereunder are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to the Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer shall have the same rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral as it has with respect to the Mortgage Loans as are set forth in the Repurchase Agreement.

The provisions set forth in this section are intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Repurchase Agreement as defined under Sections 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary herein or in any Purchase Agreements, Pledgor intends that each transfer of Mortgage Loans from Pledgor to

Exhibit Q-3

Seller is a sale, and hereby covenants to not take any actions that would be inconsistent with treating such transfer as a sale.

(3) Recourse. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained or implied herein or in any other Repurchase Document, Buyer’s recourse against Pledgor in order to satisfy the Repurchase Obligations shall be limited to the Pledged Collateral that are the subject of this Agreement.

4. Subordination in Connection with Financing.

(a) It is anticipated that in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Repurchase Documents, that (x) Seller has purchased the Pledged Collateral from the Pledgor subject to the Lien of the Buyer hereunder and (y) Pledgor hereby reaffirms such Lien and pledges its interest in such Pledged Collateral hereunder to the Buyer. In connection with the foregoing Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral are and shall continue to be at all times while the Repurchase Agreement and the Repurchase Documents Obligations thereunder are in effect, junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer under the Program Agreements. In furtherance of the foregoing, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to Pledgor under the Purchase Agreements, applicable law or otherwise, Pledgor shall not, directly or indirectly, exercise any remedies available to it under any Purchase Agreement or at law or equity for ninety-one (91) days following the date that all Repurchase Documents Obligations are paid in full under the Repurchase Documents; provided that nothing in the foregoing shall prohibit Pledgor from receiving, payments with respect to the obligations under the Repurchase Documents as, and in the manner, contemplated therein, but subject to the prior rights of the Buyer hereunder and under the Program Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, in no instance shall the Buyer succeed to any liabilities or obligations of Pledgor under the Purchase Agreements.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, Pledgor agrees to not assert any objection to, and shall be deemed to have otherwise consented to, a disposition of any assets subject to the Repurchase Agreement and subject to the Repurchase Documents during an Act of Insolvency of Pledgor or Seller, free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar bankruptcy law) if Buyer has consented to such disposition.

(c) If an Act of Insolvency of Pledgor or Seller occurs, the Pledgor agrees not to contest (or support any other Person contesting) any request by Buyer, with respect to the Pledged Collateral, for adequate protection, or any objection by Buyer to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on Buyer claiming a lack of adequate protection.

(d) Until the Repurchase Obligations under the Repurchase Documents are paid in full, the Pledgor shall not oppose any request by Buyer, with respect to the Pledged Collateral, for relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Act of Insolvency of Pledgor or Seller.

(e) Pledgor shall not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by Buyer for allowance and payment in any Act of Insolvency of Pledgor, of Repurchase Obligations under the Program Agreements consisting of post-petition interest, fees, costs or other charges to the extent

Exhibit Q-4

of the value of Buyer’s lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims on the assets that are the subject of this Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, without regard to the existence of a lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims of Pledgor applicable to the obligations of the other parties to the Repurchase Documents.

(f) Pledgor shall not seek in any Act of Insolvency of Pledgor, to be treated as part of the same class of creditors as Buyer and shall not oppose any pleading or motion by Buyer advocating that Buyer and Pledgor should be treated as separate classes of creditors. Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer under this Agreement.

5. Pledge Absolute and Unconditional. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Pledgor and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Buyer, and its successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Repurchase Obligations shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Repurchase Agreement shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto Seller may be free from any Repurchase Obligations.

6. Reinstatement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligations of Pledgor under this Agreement, and this Agreement shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, and be continued in full force and effect, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Repurchase Obligations is rescinded, invalidated, declared fraudulent or preferentially set aside or must otherwise be restored, returned or repaid by the Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or Pledgor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or Pledgor or any substantial part of its or their property, or for any other reason, all as though such payments had not been made.

(h) Litigation. Except as otherwise disclosed in writing to Buyer prior to the date hereof, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending with respect to which Pledgor has received service of process or, to Pledgor’s knowledge threatened against it before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (A) making a claim or claims that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (B) which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement.

(i) Taxes. Pledgor and its Subsidiaries have timely filed all tax returns that are required to be filed by it and have timely paid all Taxes, except for any such Taxes as are being appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been provided.

10. Set-Off.

(a) In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Pledgor, any such notice being expressly waived by Pledgor to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any obligation from Pledgor to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return excess margin), credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Pledgor. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Pledgor after any such set‑off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set‑off and application.

(b) Buyer shall at any time have the right, in each case until such time as Buyer determines otherwise, to retain, to suspend payment or performance of, or to decline to remit, any amount or property that Buyer would otherwise be obligated to pay, remit or deliver to any Pledgor hereunder if an Event of Default has occurred.

11. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications provided for herein (including without limitation any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including without limitation by electronic transmission) delivered to the intended recipient at the address specified for notices in the Repurchase Agreement, or, with respect to the Pledgor, at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages hereof); or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. All such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted electronically or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

12. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such

Exhibit Q-8

prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

13. Integration. This Agreement represents the agreement of Pledgor with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and there are no promises or representations by the Buyer relative to the subject matter hereof or thereof not reflected herein or therein.

14. Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(b) The Buyer shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to clause (a) above), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any event giving rise to the Pledgor’s obligations hereunder or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Buyer, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Buyer of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Buyer would otherwise have on any future occasion.

(c) The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

15. Section Headings. The section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Pledgor and shall inure to the benefit of the Buyer and its successors and assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Pledgor without the express written consent of the Buyer.

17. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF, OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, WHICH SHALL GOVERN.

18. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS. PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY:

(a) SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER PROGRAM AGREEMENTS, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE EXCLUSIVE GENERAL

Exhibit Q-9

JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(b) CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH UNDER ITS SIGNATURE BELOW OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE OTHER PARTIES SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d) AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO XXX IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF POWER OF ATTORNEY

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that PENNYMAC CORP. (“Pledgor”) hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Deutsche Bank AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“Buyer”) and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Pledgor and in the name of Pledgor or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) in the name of Pledgor, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any assets pledged by Pledgor under the Pledge Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time) dated as of August 21, 2017 (the “Pledged Collateral”) and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any other Pledged Collateral whenever payable;

(b) to pay or discharge taxes and liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Pledged Collateral; and

(c) (i) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Pledged Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct, including, without limitation, any payment agent with respect to any asset purchased by Buyer under the Master Repurchase Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time) dated as of August 21, 2017; (ii) to send “goodbye” letters on behalf of Pledgor as the same may relate to any Pledged Collateral; (iii) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Pledged Collateral; (iv) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Pledged Collateral; (v) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Pledged Collateral or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Pledged Collateral; (vi) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Pledgor with respect to any Pledged Collateral; (vii) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (vi) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; and (viii) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Pledged Collateral as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Pledgor’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Pledged Collateral

and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Pledgor might do;

(d) for the purpose of carrying out the transfer of servicing with respect to the Pledged Collateral from Pledgor to a successor servicer appointed by Buyer in its sole discretion and to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish such transfer of servicing, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Pledgor hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Pledgor, without assent by Pledgor, to, in the name of Pledgor or its own name, or otherwise, prepare and send or cause to be sent “good-bye” letters to all mortgagors under the Pledged Collateral, transferring the servicing of the Pledged Collateral to a successor servicer appointed by Buyer in its sole discretion;

(e) for the purpose of delivering any notices of sale to mortgagors or other third parties, including without limitation, those required by law.

Pledgor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

Pledgor also authorizes Buyer, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

The powers conferred on Buyer hereunder are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

TO INDUCE ANY THIRD PARTY TO ACT HEREUNDER, PLEDGOR HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY THIRD PARTY RECEIVING A DULY EXECUTED COPY OR FACSIMILE OF THIS INSTRUMENT MAY ACT HEREUNDER, AND THAT REVOCATION OR TERMINATION HEREOF SHALL BE INEFFECTIVE AS TO SUCH THIRD PARTY UNLESS AND UNTIL ACTUAL NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH REVOCATION OR TERMINATION SHALL HAVE BEEN RECEIVED BY SUCH THIRD PARTY, AND BUYER ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF BUYER’S ASSIGNS, HEREBY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS ANY SUCH THIRD PARTY FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY ARISE AGAINST SUCH THIRD PARTY BY REASON OF SUCH THIRD PARTY HAVING RELIED ON THE PROVISIONS OF THIS INSTRUMENT.
