(e) except as otherwise provided in the Origination Agreement, with respect to all PHH Loans
to be sold hereunder that were originated by MLCC with the assistance of PHH pursuant to the
Origination Agreement, PHH has performed its services under the Origination Agreement in accordance
with the requirements set forth therein, and has taken no action, nor has it failed to take any
action, that might cause any PHH Loan not to be in compliance in all material respects with all
Applicable Requirements and the terms of this Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to:
the fair housing act, anti-redlining, equal credit opportunity, truth-in-lending, real estate
settlement procedures, fair credit reporting, and every other prohibition against unlawful
discrimination in residential mortgage lending or governing consumer credit, and also including,
without limitation, the Consumer Credit Reporting Act, Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1975 and
Regulation B, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Financial Institutions Reform Recovery and Enforcement
Act, Truth in Lending Law, in particular, Regulation Z as amended, the Flood Disaster Protection

against or relating to PHH, which could result in liability to MLCC or materially impair the

any such litigation, proceeding, claim or demand or governmental investigation. PHH is not in
default with respect to any order of any court, governmental authority or arbitration board or
tribunal to which PHH is a party or is subject, and PHH is not in violation of any laws,
ordinances, governmental rules or regulations to which it is subject; and
(g) no consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body
is required for the execution, delivery and performance by PHH of or compliance by PHH with this
Agreement or the purchase of the PHH Loans as evidenced by the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, or if required, such approval has been obtained prior to the
Effective Date.
SECTION 10. Confidentiality and No Personal Solicitation. (a) Each party understands
that certain information which it has been furnished and will be furnished in connection with this
Agreement, including, but not limited to, information concerning business procedures or prices,
policies or plans of the other party or any of its Affiliates, is confidential and proprietary, and
each party agrees that it will maintain the confidentiality of such information and will not
disclose it to others or use it except in connection with the proposed transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the party furnishing such information.
Information which is generally known in the industry concerning a party or among such party’s
creditors generally or which has been disclosed to the other party by third parties who have a
right to do so shall not be deemed confidential or proprietary information for these purposes. If
PHH, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or
Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement
12
agent of any of the foregoing is at any time requested or required to disclose any information
supplied to it by or on behalf of MLCC in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, PHH
agrees to provide MLCC with prompt notice of such request(s) so that MLCC may seek an appropriate
protective order and/or waive PHH’s compliance with the terms of this Section. If MLCC, any of its
Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or agent of any of the foregoing is at any time
requested or required to disclose any information supplied to it by or on behalf of MLCC in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, MLCC agrees to provide PHH with prompt notice
of such request(s) so that PHH may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive MLCC’s
compliance with the terms of this Section. Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, if, in the
absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, PHH or MLCC is nonetheless, in
the opinion of its counsel, compelled to disclose information concerning the other party to any
tribunal or other governing or regulatory body or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other
censure or penalty, PHH or MLCC may disclose such information to such tribunal without liability
hereunder. Upon termination of this Agreement, each party agrees to promptly return to the other
all confidential materials, and all copies thereof, which have been furnished to it in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(b) All information provided by Mortgagors in connection with a PHH Loan shall be treated by
PHH as confidential information and shall be handled in the same manner as described in Section
11(a) and as otherwise required under applicable laws.
(c) Without MLCC’s prior written consent, which may be withheld by MLCC in its sole
discretion, neither PHH nor any Affiliate shall solicit any Mortgagor, or cause any Mortgagor to be
solicited, for subordinate financing of any Mortgage Loan (other than subordinate financing
arranged through the Equity Access Program), or any product or service whatsoever, including,
without limitation, any investment or financial services or products, insurance products or
services and brokerage account services. PHH (but not any of its Affiliates) may solicit
Mortgagors for prepayment of the related Mortgage Loans, but only if (i) PHH has obtained MLCC’s
prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such solicitation is made in
compliance with the Applicable Requirements and (iii) upon obtaining any positive responses to such
solicitation, PHH processes and closes the related Mortgage Loans pursuant to the Origination
Agreement and purchases Conforming Conventional Mortgage Loans and Jumbo/Non-Conforming Loans
resulting therefrom pursuant to this Agreement. Neither MLCC nor any of its Affiliates shall be
prohibited from soliciting any Mortgagor or causing any Mortgagor to be solicited for any product
or service now offered (or hereafter offered) by MLCC or any Affiliate of MLCC, other than for
prepayment of any Mortgage Loan. PHH shall not prepare or disseminate, for compensation or
otherwise, any mailing lists relating to the Mortgagors, the Mortgage Loans, the servicing rights
(as such term is defined in the Servicing Agreement), or otherwise, including any lists of
Mortgagors, without MLCC’s prior written consent, which may be withheld by MLCC in its sole
discretion. The parties hereto nevertheless agree that (i) either PHH, MLCC or their Affiliates
may from time to time undertake promotions that are directed to either their own general customer
base or to the general public at large and that do not target Mortgagors directly, including,
without limitation, newspaper, radio and television advertisements and mass mailing or telephone
solicitations and that (ii) offers by PHH, MLCC or their Affiliates to refinance Mortgage Loans
under this Program in response to, or as a result of, contact initiated by such related Customers
or their representatives shall not constitute solicitation. PHH shall cause each subsequent
purchaser of
Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement
13
any Mortgage Loan to comply with the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth in this
paragraph.
(d) The confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 10 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement.
SECTION 11. Indemnification. (a) Each Party hereto (each an Indemnitor) agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party and each of its respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys, members and shareholders of each of the foregoing (collectively
called the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Losses (as that term is defined in
the Origination Agreement) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitees, whether
brought under common law or in equity, or in contract, tort or otherwise, caused by, arising from
or connected with (i) the breach by the Indemnitor of any term, condition, representation,
obligation or warranty of such Indemnitor set forth in this Agreement or (ii) the negligence or
willful misconduct of the Indemnitor.
(b) Before either Party is entitled to indemnification as provided in this Section 11, the
Party claiming indemnification shall give notice to the other Party of the claimed breach, and the
other Party shall have sixty (60) days to cure such breach, which period shall have expired before
either Party may enforce rights to indemnification hereunder. Cure of the breach within such sixty
(60) day period shall not relieve the breaching Party from its obligations to indemnify the other
Party for the Losses suffered by the other Party on account of the breach by the breaching Party.
(c) The indemnification provisions contained in this Section 11 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement.
SECTION 12. Termination. This Purchase Agreement shall automatically expire and
terminate upon the earlier of (i) December 31, 2010 (the “Initial Termination Date”) and
(ii) the date upon which the Origination Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms
thereof. If the Origination Agreement shall have been extended for an extension term, this
Agreement shall be automatically extended for the same extension term without any action by the
parties hereto (the “Extension Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
(A) a Party shall materially breach any of its representations, warranties or covenants or shall
materially default in the performance of any of its duties or obligations hereunder, and such
breach or default shall not be substantially cured within sixty (60) days after written notice
specifying the breach or default has been given by the non-breaching or non-defaulting Party, such
non-breaching or non-defaulting Party may, by giving written notice thereof to the breaching or
defaulting Party, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice
of termination; (B) an insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have been commenced, or a
decree or order of an appropriate court, agency or supervisory authority for the appointment of a
conservator, receiver or liquidator shall have been entered against the other Party (the
“Bankrupt Party”), then the other Party may, by giving written notice thereof to the
Bankrupt Party, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of
termination; (C) PHH’s good standing with HUD or both Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx Mac shall have been
revoked for cause (it being understood that PHH may choose to cease doing business with one but not
both of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac) and PHH fails to have such good standing
Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement
14
reinstated within thirty (30) days, then MLCC may, by giving notice thereof to PHH, terminate this
Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; or (D) a PHH
Competitor Change of Control shall have occurred, then at any time after MLCC shall have received
notice of such PHH Competitor Change of Control, MLCC may, by giving written notice thereof to PHH,
terminate this Agreement as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; (E) a PHH
Change of Control (other than a PHH Competitor Change of Control) shall have occurred, then at any
time within 30 days after the two year anniversary of such PHH Change of Control, MI., may, by
giving written notice thereof to PHH, terminate this Agreement as of a future date specified in
such notice of termination; or (F) PHH shall have materially breached any of its representations,
warranties or covenants contained in the Trademark Use Agreement and such breach shall not have
been cured within the time frame prescribed therein, then MLCC may, by giving written notice
thereof to PHH, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of
termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, PHH shall not be required to purchase PHH Loans,
except as to those for which an Approval Letter has been issued; provided, however,
that termination of this Agreement pursuant hereto shall not release any party from liability for
its own misrepresentation or for any breach by it prior to such termination of any covenant,
agreement or warranty contained herein.
SECTION 13. No Assignment. The Parties hereto shall not assign all or any part of
their respective rights or obligations arising hereunder or delegate any duty other than as
permitted by this Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of the other party.
SECTION 14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
SECTION 15. Lawful Conduct; Severability; Release. The Parties hereto shall not
perform, or be expected to perform, any act hereunder that is, or reasonably believed to be, in
violation of any local, state or federal law, then such provision shall be considered null and void
for purposes of this Agreement with all other provisions remaining in full force and effect. Each
party expressly releases the other from any liability in the event either of said parties cannot
fulfill any obligation hereunder due to any prohibition under local, state or federal laws
pertaining to such obligation.

hereof waived, but only in a writing signed by the Party against whom such amendment or waiver is
