Requisite Consents; Supplemental Indenture In order to approve the Amendments to the Unsecured Notes Indenture, Consents must be delivered and not revoked in respect of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Unsecured Notes outstanding (other than 2025 Unsecured Notes beneficially owned by FOA Funding or its affiliates) (“Requisite Consents”). Promptly following the expiration of the Consent Solicitation, if the Requisite Consents have been delivered with respect to the 2025 Unsecured Notes, FOA Funding, the guarantors of the 2025 Unsecured Notes and the trustee for the 2025 Unsecured Notes will enter into a supplemental indenture to the Unsecured Notes Indenture giving effect to the Amendments. The Amendments will not become operative until consummation of the Exchange Offer.

Disposition of Collateral The Issuer may directly or indirectly (and, so long as no event of default has occurred and is continuing, without the consent of the holders of the Notes) (i) sell, dispose or otherwise transfer any “call rights” with respect to Pledged Risk Retention Instruments and/or any Pledged Risk Retention Instruments and/or (ii) exercise “call rights” with respect to any Pledged Risk Retention Instruments (or any related securitization is otherwise redeemed) (each, a “Call Event”), which may be through a sale, transfer or other monetization of the proprietary reverse mortgage loans (and other collateral assets in respect thereof) (collectively, the “Called Securitized Assets”), provided in each case, the aggregate net proceeds thereof that are allocable to the Pledged Risk Retention Instruments or “call rights”, as applicable, subject to such Call Event (“Net Cash Proceeds”) shall be applied solely (v) to originate or acquire (including by acquiring rights to, by exercising related “call rights” and satisfying related indebtedness) proprietary reverse mortgage loans that are reasonably expected to be (at the time of origination) and are, within a period that begins upon such Call Event and ends on the first month-end that occurs not earlier than one hundred eighty (180) days following such Call Event, included in (1) asset backed securitizations that generate Pledged Risk Retention Instruments included in Collateral in the ordinary course of business or (2) asset sales, financings, derivative, co-investment or alternative transactions that result in the monetization of such proprietary reverse mortgage loans and generate cash or cash equivalents that are subject to application solely as permitted by clauses (w) through (z) hereof, (w) to repay (and correspondingly permanently reduce commitments under) the Working Capital Notes; (x) to pay interest on the Notes or the New Exchangeable Notes (including through funding amounts in the Debt Service Reserve (as defined below)), (y) to partially
5 prepay the Notes as provided below under “Amortization Payment” or (z) to redeem the Notes as provided below under “Mandatory Redemption” or fund any offer to repurchase or otherwise repurchase the New Exchangeable Notes. Prior to any application as required pursuant to the foregoing clauses (w) through (z), cash and cash equivalent proceeds of such Collateral shall be credited to a deposit account or securities account (and subject to a springing account control agreement) subject to a first priority lien in favor of the Administrative Agent for the Working Capital Notes and a second priority lien in favor of the Collateral Trustee (as defined below), that upon the Working Capital Security Release such account shall be subject to only a first priority lien in favor of the Collateral Trustee. Upon a MSR Monetization Transaction, the gross proceeds received in cash and cash equivalents by FOA Equity Capital or any subsidiary from such MSR Monetization Transaction after payment of any expenses or senior indebtedness required by the applicable agreements relating thereto (the “MSR Net Proceeds”) shall be used: first, to permanently paydown the Working Capital Notes, in accordance with the terms thereof, and second, to the extent any Net Cash Proceeds have been used in accordance with clause (w) of the foregoing paragraph (such amount of Net Cash Proceeds used, the “Working Capital Notes Payments Amount”), MSR Net Proceeds equal to the lesser of (i) the Working Capital Notes Payments Amount and (ii) remaining available MSR Net Proceeds, shall be treated as if they constitute Net Cash Proceeds and be used in accordance with clauses (v), (x), (y) and (z) of the foregoing paragraph. “MSR Monetization Transaction” means, with respect to any mortgage servicing rights owned by FoA Reverse relating to its home equity conversion mortgages which have been pooled into securities guaranteed by Xxxxxx Xxx (the “Xxxxxx Xxx HMSR”) owned by FOA Equity Capital or any restricted subsidiary, whether originated or acquired by FOA Equity Capital or such restricted subsidiary, any transaction relating to the sale or financing of such Xxxxxx Xxx HMSR that results in FOA Equity Capital or any restricted subsidiary receiving any cash proceeds from such transaction, including (i) the sale, conveyance or other disposition of any Xxxxxx Xxx HMSR and (ii) any debt financing secured in whole or in part by any Xxxxxx Xxx HMSR (other than the refinancing of any indebtedness already secured by such Xxxxxx Xxx HMSR up to the amount of such indebtedness and the amount of accrued interest and fees and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing and other than any ordinary course financing of reverse mortgage loans, including tails pools, buyout loans or related securitizations). Cash Management and Debt Service Reserve The Issuer shall not permit any restricted subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to hold any unrestricted cash or cash equivalents unless the transfer of such unrestricted cash or cash equivalents to a subsidiary Guarantor is prohibited under law or by contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business (including pursuant to any indebtedness permitted to be incurred by such restricted subsidiary). At any time after
6 the repayment in full of the Working Capital Notes, if at any month-end measurement date, the Issuer and the subsidiary Guarantors collectively hold any unrestricted cash or cash equivalents in an aggregate amount in excess of $90.0 million (measured at each of (x) the last business day of each month and (y) within two business days of receipt of net cash proceeds in an aggregate amount in excess of $30 million from a transaction or series of related transactions that required the approval of, or was approved by (other than general transaction authorizations in the ordinary course), the board of directors of PubCo), the Issuer shall cause such excess to be credited to an account of the Issuer or a subsidiary Guarantor pledged to the Collateral Trustee as collateral for the Notes and subject to a fully blocked account control agreement in favor of the Collateral Trustee (such account the “Debt Service Reserve”). Prior to the acceleration of the Notes, amounts shall be released from the Debt Service Reserve solely to (i) pay interest on the Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes due and payable, (ii) redeem the Notes, (iii) to partially prepay the Notes as provided below under “Amortization Payment” or (iv) fund any offer to repurchase or repurchase the New Exchangeable Notes. Ranking; Collateral Trust Agreement and Intercreditor Principles The Notes will be senior secured obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all other senior indebtedness of the Issuer and the Guarantors, including the Working Capital Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes. The Notes will be secured by the Collateral as described herein under “Priority; Permitted Liens”. The Working Capital Notes and the Notes (and the New Exchangeable Notes) will be effectively senior to any of the Issuer’s or the Guarantors’ existing and future unsecured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the Collateral securing the Notes. The rights and obligations in respect of the Collateral as between the Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes shall be governed by a customary collateral trust agreement, with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as collateral trustee (the “Collateral Trustee”), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Consenting Noteholders. The rights and obligations of the Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes on one hand and the Working Capital Notes on the other hand in respect of the Initial Collateral shall be governed by an intercreditor arrangement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Consenting Noteholders reflecting the intercreditor principles attached as Annex A hereto. Mandatory Redemption From and after the time the Working Capital Notes are repaid in full, the Issuer shall redeem the Notes at a redemption price of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, upon the occurrence of the following events: (i) Amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve on any date of determination, to the extent such amounts exceed by at least $10,000,000 the amount of interest expected to be due
7 and payable on the Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes on the next two scheduled Interest Payment Dates (based on the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes and the then applicable Interest Rate), to the extent of the entire amount of such excess (including, for the avoidance of doubt, such $10,000,000); (ii) An amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds, to the extent not applied under clauses (v), (x) or (y) under the heading “Collateral” above; and (iii) Other events consistent with those contained in the Unsecured Notes Indenture for the sale of assets except for Collateral dispositions covered under “Disposition of Collateral” above; provided, that, all such mandatory redemptions pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall be made (i) absent an event of default and acceleration of the Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes, first, to the Notes and thereafter, as may be required by the indenture for the New Exchangeable Notes and (ii) upon an event of default and acceleration of the Notes and the New Exchangeable Notes, pari passu to the Notes and New Exchangeable Notes in accordance with terms of the New Exchangeable Notes. Optional Redemption The Issuer shall not be permitted to redeem the Notes at its option prior to the Maturity Date.

Ranking; Collateral Trust Agreement and Intercreditor Principles The Notes will be senior secured obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors (as defined in the Summary of Key Terms of the New Senior Secured Notes) and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all other senior indebtedness of the Issuer and the Guarantors, including the Working Capital Notes and the New Senior Secured Notes. The Notes will be secured by the Collateral as described herein under “Priority; Permitted Liens.” The Working Capital Notes and the Notes (and the New Senior Secured Notes) will be effectively senior to any of the Issuer’s or the Guarantors’ existing and future unsecured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the Collateral securing the Notes.

As a result, holders of the Notes may only resell their Notes pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. On the Closing Date, PubCo and the Issuer will enter into a registration rights agreement under which PubCo will agree, at its cost, to: (i) file a shelf registration statement with the SEC and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such shelf registration statement to become effective on or prior to the 180th day after the date of issuance of the Notes, covering the shares of PubCo Common Stock, if any, deliverable upon exchange of the Notes; (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the shelf registration statement effective to and including the earlier of (a) the Maturity Date and (b) the date on which (1) there are no longer outstanding any Notes or (2) there are no shares of PubCo Common Stock delivered or deliverable upon exchange, other than shares of PubCo Common Stock that are eligible to be transferred without condition as contemplated under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
