GENERAL TERMS

Section 2.01 Transactions. During the Commitment Period, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to enter into Transactions with the Seller for the applicable Purchase Price. The Seller may pay the Repurchase Price in whole or in part at any time during the Commitment Period, and additional Transactions may be entered into

in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Buyer’s obligation to enter into Transactions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall terminate on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer shall have no commitment or obligation to enter into Transactions to the extent the Purchase Price of such Transaction exceeds the Asset Base (determined after giving effect to such proposed purchase).

Section 2.02 Procedure for Entering into Transactions. (a) The Seller may enter into Transactions with the Buyer during the Commitment Period on any Purchase Date; provided, that the Seller shall have given the Buyer irrevocable notice (each, a “Transaction Notice”) with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Indenture Trustee, which notice (i) shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, (ii) shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Seller and be received by the Buyer prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) one (1) Business Day prior to the related Purchase Date, (iii) shall specify (A) the Dollar amount of the requested Purchase Price, (B) the requested Purchase Date, (C) the information required to be included in the Asset Schedule with respect to each Participation Certificate subject of such Transaction in mutually acceptable electronic form and (D) a copy of the related “Funding Certification” being delivered pursuant to the Indenture in connection with such Transaction, if applicable, and (iv) shall have attached to it a revised Asset Schedule, dated as of the date of such notice. Each Transaction Notice on any Purchase Date shall be in an amount equal to at least $25,000.

(b) If the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a Transaction Notice that satisfies the requirements of Section 2.02(a), Buyer will notify the Seller prior to the requested Purchase Date of its intent to remit the requested Purchase Price, and the form or forms of the Consideration that will be provided, including (i) the portion of such Purchase Price that will paid in cash, if any (ii) the Note Balance, or increased Note Balance, of any Variable Funding Note and (iii) the increased value of the Owner Trust Certificate, which increase will result from the deemed capital contribution to the Buyer of any portion of the Purchase Price not paid pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above. If all applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article V have been satisfied on or prior to the Purchase Date, then subject to the foregoing, on the Purchase Date, the Buyer shall deliver the Consideration to the Seller, including remitting any cash portion of the requested Purchase Price identified by the Buyer in Dollars and in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Seller in Schedule 5 to the Base Indenture.

(c) Upon entering into each Transaction hereunder, the Asset Schedule shall be automatically updated to include each of the Assets listed on the Asset Schedule attached to the Transaction Notice.

Section 2.03 Repurchase; Payment of Repurchase Price; Optional Payments.

(a) The Seller hereby promises to (i) repurchase the Purchased Assets and pay the Repurchase Price and all other outstanding Obligations on the related Termination Date and (ii) pay any and all Required Payments on the related MRA Payment Date.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, on each MRA Payment Date, the Seller shall sweep all amounts received with respect to MSRs to the Dedicated Account in accordance with Section 6.12 hereof to be applied in accordance with Section 2.07 hereof.

(c) Seller may, at its option, elect to make a payment (an “Optional Payment”) to Buyer in respect of any Interim Payment Date or Payment Date for the purpose of reducing the Purchase Price. Such payment shall be made to the Dedicated Account.

(d) If the Buyer intends to use any or all of an Optional Payment to effect a redemption of any portion of a Class of Notes pursuant to Section 13.1 of the Base Indenture, Seller shall contemporaneously pay to the Buyer all accrued and unpaid Price Differential on the amount so redeemed, together with the applicable Specified Call Premium Amounts (as defined in any applicable Indenture Supplement) then due and payable, if any.

(e) If Seller intends to use Pledged Margin Securities to satisfy a Margin Call in accordance with Section 2.05, (i) such Pledged Margin Securities shall be deposited in a Pledged Margin Securities Account and (ii) such Pledged Margin Securities shall comply with the representations and warranties to be agreed upon by the Repo Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Repo Seller to be set forth on Schedule 1-D.

(f) If Seller intends to use Eligible Securities to satisfy a Margin Call in accordance with Section 2.05, (i) such Eligible Securities shall be deposited in a Eligible Securities Account and (ii) such Eligible Securities shall comply with the representations and warranties to be agreed upon by the Repo Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Repo Seller to be set forth on Schedule 1-C.

Section 2.04 Price Differential.

(a) On each MRA Payment Date, the Seller hereby promises to pay to the Buyer all accrued and unpaid Price Differential on the Transactions, as invoiced by the Buyer two (2) Business Days prior to the related MRA Payment Date (the “Price Differential Statement Date”); provided that if the Buyer fails to deliver such statement on the Price Differential Statement Date, on such MRA Payment Date the Seller shall pay the amount which the Seller calculates as the Price Differential due and upon delivery of the statement, the Seller shall remit to the Buyer any shortfall, or the Buyer shall refund to the Seller any excess, in the Price Differential paid. Price Differential shall accrue each day on the Purchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate.

(b) In addition to the payment of the Price Differential, on each MRA Payment Date, the Seller hereby promises to pay to the Buyer all accrued and unpaid amounts representing Expenses, if any.

Section 2.05 Margin Maintenance.

(a) If at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of the Purchase Price exceeds the Asset Base in effect at such time, as determined on each Interim Payment Date (or, on a daily basis, in the event of the delivery of Eligible Securities or pledging of Pledged Margin Securities) after taking into account any Transaction being effected on such date (such excess, a “Margin Deficit”), then the Buyer may by notice to the Seller require the Seller to eliminate the Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Margin Call”) by (i) making a Margin Call Payment, (ii) if there is no Borrowing Base Deficiency at such time, the reduction of the value of the Owner Trust Certificate, or (iii) in the sole discretion of the Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld), pledging a Pledged Margin Security to Buyer.

(b) Notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.05(a) may be given by any written or electronic means. With respect to a Margin Call, any notice given before 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day. With respect to a Margin Call, any notice given after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2^nd) Business Day following the date of such notice. The foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”. The failure of the Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of the Buyer to do so at a later date. Each of the Seller and the Buyer agrees that a failure or delay by the Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive the Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for the Seller.

(c) In the event that a Margin Deficit exists, the Buyer may retain any funds received by it to which the Seller would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) may be held by the Buyer against the related Margin Deficit or (ii) may be applied by the Buyer against the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05.

(d) If the aggregate outstanding amount of the Asset Base exceeds the Purchase Price as determined on each MRA Payment Date (such excess, a “Margin Excess”), then Seller may deliver a Margin Excess Notice to Buyer and request Buyer to deliver additional Consideration in an amount not to exceed the amount of such Margin Excess indicated in such Margin Excess Notice. Seller shall deliver such Margin Excess Notice at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Interim Payment Date on which Seller wishes to receive such amount. If the Margin Excess Notice has been timely provided, the Buyer shall provide Consideration to the Seller in the requested amount on the specified Interim Payment Date, which Consideration shall consist of (i) cash, to the extent Buyer has excess cash or is able to obtain cash by effectuating an increase in the VFN Principal Balance, (ii) release of Eligible Securities, (iii) issuance of additional Notes and (iv) otherwise, an increase in the value of the Owner Trust Certificate.

Section 2.06 Payment Procedure. The Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited all amounts constituting collections, payments and proceeds of Assets (including all fees and proceeds of sale) in the Dedicated Account as set forth in Section 6.12, within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof or in the case of related liquidation or insurance proceeds, as promptly as reasonably practical following receipt of any related liquidation or insurance proceeds. The Seller shall cause the Subservicer to remit directly to the Dedicated Account all amounts that constitute collections, payments and proceeds of Assets owed by Subservicer to the Seller. The Seller absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably, shall make, or shall cause its Subservicer to make, all payments required to be made by the Seller hereunder whether or not sufficient amounts are on deposit in the Dedicated Account.

Section 2.07 Net Payments. (a) On each MRA Payment Date, the Seller shall pay all amounts due and owing under Sections 2.03, 2.04 or 2.05; however, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, such payments shall be netted against amounts otherwise distributable to the Seller as the holder of the Owner Trust Certificate under the Indenture, and such payment obligation shall be deemed paid and satisfied upon the payment of the Net Payment Amount for such MRA Payment Date.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Seller shall be entitled to retain, from payments on, or relating to, the Mortgage Loans, all Ancillary Income, the Base Servicing Fee and the Advance Reimbursement Amounts. Ancillary Income, the Base Servicing Fee and the Advance Reimbursement Amounts shall not be required to be deposited into the Dedicated Account, and shall not be subject to any offset, netting or withdrawal under this Agreement.

Section 2.08 Recourse. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained or implied herein or in any other Program Agreement, the Buyer shall have full, unlimited recourse against the Seller and the Guarantor and their respective assets in order to satisfy the Obligations.

Section 2.09 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Seller or the Guarantor under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreements to which the Seller or the Guarantor is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by law. If the Seller or the Guarantor shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Program Agreements to the Buyer (including for purposes of this Section 2.09, any assignee, successor or participant), (i) the Seller or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) the Seller or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable Requirement of Law, and (iii) the sum payable by the Seller or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall be increased as may be necessary so that after the Seller or the Guarantor, as applicable, has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.09), such Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” means Taxes other than, in the case of the Buyer, Taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Buyer is organized, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of the Buyer having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Program Agreements (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes).

(b) In addition, the Seller and the Guarantor hereby agree to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added taxes, or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Program Agreement (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Seller and the Guarantor hereby agree to indemnify the Buyer for, and to hold it harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable by the Seller or the Guarantor, as applicable, under this Section 2.09 imposed on or paid by such Buyer and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by the Seller and the Guarantor provided for in this Section 2.09 shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by the Seller and the Guarantor under the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.09(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which the Buyer makes written demand therefor.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Seller contained in this Section 2.09 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Program Agreements. Nothing contained in this Section 2.09 shall require any Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

Section 2.10 Indemnity. The Seller agrees to indemnify the Buyer and to hold the Buyer harmless from any loss or expense that the Buyer may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) a default by the Seller in payment when due of the Repurchase Price, Required Payment, Margin Deficit or Price Differential or (ii) a default by the Seller in making any prepayment of Repurchase Price after the Seller has given a notice thereof in accordance with Section 2.03.

Section 2.11 Dedicated Account.

Amounts received on account of MSRs and Portfolio Excess Spread (excluding Ancillary Income, Base Servicing Fee and Advance Reimbursement Amounts) and retained by the Seller pursuant to the related Servicing Contract or Participation Agreement, as the case may be, shall, subject to Section 6.12, promptly, in any event within two (2) Business Days after receipt, be deposited in the Dedicated Account. Prior to an Event of Default, funds deposited in the Dedicated Account (including any interest paid on such funds) may only be used in accordance with Section 6.12. On or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, amounts on deposit in the Dedicated Account may only be used in accordance with Section 6.12 and only to pay the Obligations hereunder. Upon the Termination Date and the payment of all amounts due by the Seller hereunder, all amounts on deposit in the Dedicated Account shall be remitted to the Seller.

Section 2.12 Additional Participation Agreements and Participation Certificates.

In the event that the Seller wishes to enter into a Transaction with respect to a Participation Agreement or Participation Certificate not listed on Schedule 2 hereto, Seller shall deliver a written request, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. Upon receipt of the request and filing of a UCC-3 amendment adding the additional Participation Agreement or Participation Certificate, Schedule 2 shall be automatically updated to include each additional Participation Agreement and Participation Certificate identified thereon, and the Asset Schedule shall also be updated.

Section 2.13 Termination. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if a Seller Termination Option occurs, the Seller may, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice of such event, terminate this Agreement and the Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred (upon the expiration of the five (5) Business Days).

(b) In the event that a Seller Termination Option as described in clause (a) of the definition thereof has occurred and the Seller has notified the Buyer of its option to terminate this Agreement, the Buyer shall have the right to withdraw such request for payment within three (3) Business Days of the Seller’s notice of its exercise of the Seller Termination Option and the Seller shall no longer have the right to terminate this Agreement.

(c) The Seller shall remain responsible for all costs incurred by the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.09 hereunder and any cost or expenses incurred by the Buyer under the Indenture.

Section 2.14 Sold MSR Excess Spread.

(a) With respect to any Sold MSR Excess Spread that is made subject to a Transaction hereunder, PMH shall first pledge such Sold MSR Excess Spread under the PMH Repurchase Agreement; provided that the Seller provides notice thereof to the Buyer and such Sold MSR Excess Spread is and continues to be an Eligible Asset.

(b) The Seller hereby agrees and acknowledges that such PMH Transaction is subject to and subordinate to (i) the Buyer’s rights hereunder and (ii) the Buyer’s security interest in the Sold MSR Excess Spread and rights under the PMH Subordination Agreement.

Section 3.02 Licenses. Each of the Seller and the Guarantor is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each jurisdiction in which it transacts business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any applicable federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in either instance, the failure to take such action is not reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect and is not in default of such state’s applicable laws. The Seller has the requisite power and authority and legal right to own, sell and xxxxx x xxxx on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Assets. Each of the Seller and the Guarantor has the requisite power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, each Program Agreement, any Transaction Notice and any Excess Margin Notice.

Section 3.03 Power. Each of the Seller and the Guarantor has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.04 Due Authorization. Each of the Seller and the Guarantor has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Agreements, as applicable. This Agreement, any Transaction Notice and the Program Agreements have been (or, in the case of Program Agreements and any Transaction Notice not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Seller and the Guarantor, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against the Seller and the Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

Section 3.05 No Event of Default. There exists no Event of Default under Section 7.01 hereof, which default gives rise to a right to accelerate indebtedness as referenced in Section 7.03 hereof, under any mortgage, borrowing agreement or other instrument or agreement pertaining to indebtedness for borrowed money or to the repurchase of mortgage loans or securities, and there is no Event of Default by PMH under the PMH Documents.

Section 3.06 Solvency.

Section 10.02 Nonliability of the Buyer Parties. The parties hereto agree that, notwithstanding any affiliation that may exist between the Seller and the Buyer, the relationship between the Seller and the Buyer shall be solely that of arms-length participants. No Buyer Party shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Seller. The Seller (i) agrees that no Buyer Party shall have any liability to the Seller (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by the Seller in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by this agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined by a judgment of a court that is binding on such Buyer Party (which judgment shall be final and not subject to review on appeal), that such losses were the result of acts or omissions on the part of such Buyer Party constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any claim against each Buyer Party (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise), except a claim based upon gross negligence or willful misconduct. Whether or not such damages are related to a claim that is subject to such waiver and whether or not such waiver is effective, no Buyer Party

shall have any liability with respect to, and the Seller hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any claim for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by the Seller in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated or the relationship established by this Agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith or therewith, unless it is determined by a judgment of a court that is binding on Buyer (which judgment shall be final and not subject to review on appeal), that such damages were the result of acts or omissions on the part of a Buyer Party, as applicable, constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence.

Section 10.03 Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial: Waiver of Damages. (a) This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. The Seller acknowledges that the obligations of the Buyer hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of the Buyer or any Buyer Party. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES HERETO, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO WILL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

(b) EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY. EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS DOCUMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

(d) Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Buyer to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Seller in any other jurisdiction.

(e) The Seller waives the posting of any bond otherwise required of the Buyer in connection with any judicial process or proceeding to enforce any judgment or other court order entered in favor of the Buyer, or to enforce by specific performance, temporary restraining order or preliminary or permanent injunction this Agreement or any of the other Program Agreements.

Section 10.05 Severability. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 10.06 Section Headings. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 10.07 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Periodic Due Diligence Review. The Seller and the Guarantor acknowledge that the Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Seller and the Guarantor and the Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and the Seller and the Guarantor agree that upon reasonable (but no less than five (5) Business Days’) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to the Seller or the Guarantor, the Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the ordinary conduct of the Seller’s or the Guarantor’s business, to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Assets in the possession or under the control of the Seller or the Guarantor. The Seller and the Guarantor also shall make available to the Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller and the Guarantor acknowledge that the Buyer may enter into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from the Seller based solely upon the information provided by the Seller to the Buyer in the Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that the Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Assets related to a Transaction. The Seller and the Guarantor agree to cooperate with the Buyer and any third

party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, providing the Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or the Guarantor.

Section 10.09 Hypothecation or Pledge of Repurchase Assets. Subject to the applicable Acknowledgment Agreement, the Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets other than with respect to a participating interest consisting of a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyer under this Agreement and prior to an Event of Default Buyer receives an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such sale will not result in the Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable as a corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Section 10.10 Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment. (a) This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to the Buyer or the Seller and the Guarantor, as applicable, and shall be held by each party hereto, as applicable in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of the Buyer (at the written direction of the Administrative Agent), the Seller or the Guarantor, as applicable, except for (i) disclosure to the Buyer’s, the Seller’s or the Guarantor’s direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, (ii) disclosure to the parties to the Indenture, including, noteholders and investors related thereto, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, or (iii) disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreements, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that the Seller may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to the Buyer or any pricing terms (including the Pricing Rate, Purchase Price Percentage and Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of the Buyer (at the written direction of the Administrative Agent).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Seller shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Repurchase Assets and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”). The Seller understands that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act (the “GLB Act”), and the Seller

agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws. The Seller shall implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information” of the “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the GLB Act) of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent which the Seller holds, (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information. The Seller represents and warrants that it has implemented appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the GLB Act and of the applicable standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect. Upon request, the Seller will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow the Buyer to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this section. Without limitation, this may include the Buyer’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of the Seller. The Seller shall notify the Buyer promptly following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent provided directly to the Seller by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent. The Seller shall provide such notice to the Buyer by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.

Section 10.11 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Buyer hereunder and by law, the Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to the Seller or the Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by the Seller and the Guarantor to the extent permitted by Applicable Law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from the Seller, the Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return funds to the Seller), 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 the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent to or for the credit or the account of the Seller, the Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof. The Buyer agrees promptly to notify the Seller or the Guarantor after any such set off and application made by the Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section 10.12 Intent.

(a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code.

(b) It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Section 555 and Section 561 of Title 11 of the United States Code.

(c) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

(e) This Agreement is intended to be a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555 under the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement,” within the meaning of Section 561 under the Bankruptcy Code. It is the intention of the parties that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for accounting purposes, each Transaction constitute a financing, and that Seller be (except to the extent that Buyer shall have exercised its remedies following an Event of Default) the owner of the Purchased Assets for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Seller and Buyer shall treat the Transactions as described in the preceding sentence (including on any and all filings with any U.S. federal, state, or local taxing authority and agree not to take any action inconsistent with such treatment).

Section 10.13 Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) The Administrative Agent, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall be express third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

Section 10.14 Owner Trustee Limitation of Liability. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (a) this Agreement is executed and delivered by WSFS, not individually or personally but solely as trustee of the Issuer, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (b) each of the representations, warranties, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations, warranties, undertakings and agreements by WSFS but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer, (c) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on WSFS, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under the parties hereto, (d) WSFS has made no investigation as to the accuracy or completeness of any representations or warranties made by the Issuer in this Agreement and (e) under no circumstances shall WSFS be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under this Agreement or any other related documents.

Section 10.15 Actions and Discretion of the Buyer. Any provision providing for the exercise of any action or discretion by Buyer shall be exercised by the Indenture Trustee at the written direction of either 100% of the VFN Noteholders or the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes. To the extent there are conflicting directions between 100% of the VFN Noteholders and the Majority Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee will take its direction from

100% of the VFN Noteholders. In addition, and notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any approvals, consents, votes or other rights exercisable by the Buyer under this Agreement shall be exercised by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of Noteholders.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Seller, the Guarantor and the Buyer have caused this Master Repurchase Agreement to be executed and delivered by their duly authorized officers or trustees as of the date first above written.

SCHEDULE 1-C

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE:

PMH TRANSACTIONS

The Seller makes the following representations and warranties to the Buyer, with respect to PMH Transactions, as of the date of this Agreement, the date of the PMH Transactions, and as of each date the Program Agreements are in full force and effect. For purposes of this Schedule 1-C and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to the PMH Transactions if and when the Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such PMH Transaction.

(a) Validity of PMH Documents. The PMH Documents and any other agreement executed and delivered by PMH or guarantor thereto, as applicable, in connection with an PMH Transaction are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws or by general principles of equity. PMH and the Seller had legal capacity to enter into the PMH Transaction and PMH had the legal capacity to execute and deliver the PMH Documents and any such agreement, and the PMH Documents and any such other related agreement to which PMH or the Seller are parties have been duly and properly executed by PMH and the Seller, as applicable.

The PMH Transaction and the PMH Documents are in full force and effect, and the enforceability of the PMH Documents has not been contested by PMH.

(b) Original Terms Unmodified. Except to the extent approved in writing by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Buyer, neither the terms of the PMH Documents nor the terms of the PMH Transactions have been amended, modified, supplemented or restated in any manner that would affect the Buyer’s rights hereunder or under any other Program Agreement (including the Buyer’s rights to the Sold MSR Excess Spread), except to the extent approved in writing by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Buyer.

(c) No Defenses. The PMH Transaction is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of any PMH Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render any PMH Document unenforceable in whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto.

(d) No Bankruptcy. PMH is not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. PMH has not threatened and is not contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of PMH’s assets or any of the Sold MSR Excess Spread.

All consents of and all filings with any federal or state Governmental Authority necessary in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of the PMH Transaction have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

Schedule 1-C-1

(f) No Waiver. Except to the extent approved in writing by the Buyer (at the direction of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of Noteholders), the Seller has not waived the performance by PMH of any action under the PMH Documents, if PMH’s failure to perform such action would cause the PMH Transaction to be in default in any material respect nor, except to the extent approved in writing by the Buyer, has the Seller waived any such default resulting from any action or inaction by PMH.

(g) No Defaults. There is no material default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration existing under the PMH Documents and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration, and neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective predecessors, have waived any default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration; and all maintenance charges and assessments (including assessments payable in the future installments, which previously became due and owing) have been paid.

(h) Delivery of PMH Documents. True and correct copies of the PMH Documents have been delivered to the Buyer.

(i) Organization. PMH has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation. PMH has requisite power and authority to (i) own its properties, (ii) transact the business in which it is now engaged, (iii) execute and deliver the PMH Documents and (iv) consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. PMH is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in the jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified in connection with the ownership, maintenance, management and operation of its business. PMH possesses all material rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own its properties and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged.

(j) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the PMH Documents by PMH do not conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien (other than pursuant to the PMH Documents) under, any material servicing agreement, participation agreement, agreement, partnership agreement, or other agreement or instrument to which PMH is a party or to which any of its property is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over PMH, and any qualification of or with any governmental authority required for the execution, delivery, and performance by PMH of the PMH Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

(k) Compliance. PMH is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable legal requirements. PMH is not in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority, the violation of which might adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of PMH.

Schedule 1-C-2

(l) PMH Documents Not Assigned. No PMH Document is assigned to any third party other than the Buyer. The PMH Documents permit the Seller to assign, pledge, transfer or rehypothecate the Sold MSR Excess Spread and all other collateral pledged to the Seller pursuant to the PMH Documents. The PMH Documents expressly provide that PMH’s rights to redemption are solely with respect to the Seller, but to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a right of redemption exists with respect to the Buyer hereunder, such redemption may only be for the full amount of the Purchase Price then outstanding hereunder.

(m) Solvency. The pledge of the Sold MSR Excess Spread subject to the PMH Documents is not undertaken with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of PMH’s creditors. PMH is not insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section 101(32) and the transfer and pledge of the Sold MSR Excess Spread pursuant to the PMH Documents (i) will not cause PMH to become insolvent, (ii) will not result in any property remaining with PMH to be unreasonably small capital, and (iii) will not result in debts that would be beyond PMH’s ability to pay as same mature. PMH receives reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer and pledge of the Sold MSR Excess Spread in accordance with the PMH Documents.

(n) Ownership. The Seller has the right to pledge the Sold MSR Excess Spread. The Sold MSR Excess Spread has not been assigned or pledged by the Seller other than pursuant to this Agreement and the PMH Subordination Agreement. PMH has good, indefeasible and marketable title to the Sold MSR Excess Spread, and has full right to pledge and assign the Sold MSR Excess Spread to the Buyer under the PMH Repurchase Agreement 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 with, any other party, to assign and pledge the Sold MSR Excess Spread pursuant to the PMH Transaction.

(o) No Plan Assets. PMH is not an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA, and none of the assets of the mortgagor constitutes or will constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 CFR. Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA.

(p) No Prohibited Persons. Neither PMH nor any of its Affiliates, officers, directors, partners or members, is an entity or person or owned or controlled by an entity or person: (i) that is listed in the Annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of EO13224; (ii) whose name appears on the United States Treasury Department’s OFAC most current list of “Specifically Designated National and Blocked Persons” (which list may be published from time to time in various mediums including the OFAC website, http:xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx/x00xxx.xxx); (iii) who commits, threatens to commit or supports “terrorism”, as that term is defined in EO13224; (iv) that is (1) the subject of any Sanctions or (2) located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is, or whose government is, the subject of Sanctions; or (v) who is otherwise affiliated with any entity or person listed above.

(q) Financial Information. Based upon PMH’s representations and warranties, all financial data, including the statements of cash flow and income and operating expense, that have been delivered to the Seller (i) are true, complete, and correct in all material respects, and (ii) accurately represent the financial condition of PMH as of the date of such reports.

Schedule 1-C-3

(r) Sold MSR Excess Spread Assignable; the Buyer’s Security Interest. (i) The PMH Documents have been delivered to the Buyer and (ii) the UCC-1 Financing Statement naming PMH as debtor and the Seller as secured party identifying the Sold MSR Excess Spread as collateral has been filed in the applicable filing office.

(s) Seller Diligence. The Seller has delivered to the Buyer all information regarding PMH as the Buyer has requested and such information is satisfactory to the Buyer in all material respects.

(t) PMH Documents.

(i) The PMH Repurchase Agreement contains broad repledge, assignment and rehypothecation provisions in favor of the Seller permitting the Seller to pledge and assign to the Buyer hereunder, without restriction or rights to consent by PMH or any other Person, all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in the Sold MSR Excess Spread pledged by PMH thereunder;

(ii) The PMH Repurchase Agreement contains a grant of security interest in the Sold MSR Excess Spread subject to an PMH Transaction to the Seller, similar in form and substance to the security interest granted to the Buyer in Section 4.01 of the Agreement;

(iii) The PMH Repurchase Agreement contains a broad grant of a power of attorney to the Seller and the Seller’s attorneys-in-fact, including the Buyer; and
