c. In the event that a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Administrative Agent may retain any funds received by it to which the Seller would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) shall be held by Administrative Agent against the related Margin Deficit and (ii) may be applied by Administrative Agent against the Repurchase Price of any Purchased Mortgage Loan for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied.

Servicing

a. Seller, on Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ behalf, shall contract with Servicer to, or if Seller is the Servicer, Seller shall, service the Mortgage Loans consistent with the degree of skill and care that Seller customarily requires with respect to similar Mortgage Loans owned or managed by it and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Seller and Servicer shall (i) comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, (ii) maintain all state and federal licenses necessary for it to perform its servicing responsibilities hereunder and (iii) not impair the rights of Administrative Agent or Buyers in any Mortgage Loans or any payment thereunder.

d. In the event there is a third party Servicer and upon Administrative Agent’s request, Seller shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a Servicer Notice addressed to and agreed to by the Servicer of the related Purchased Mortgage Loans, advising such Servicer of such matters as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including, without limitation, recognition by the Servicer of Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ interest in such Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Servicer’s agreement that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default from Administrative Agent, it will follow the instructions of Administrative Agent with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and any related Income with respect thereto.

Seller and the Servicer shall cooperate in transferring the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to a successor servicer appointed by Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt any termination of the Servicer’s rights to service by the Administrative Agent as a result of an Event of Default shall be deemed part of an exercise of the Administrative Agent’s rights to cause the liquidation, termination or acceleration of this Agreement.

f. If Seller should discover that, for any reason whatsoever, Seller or any entity responsible to Seller for managing or servicing any such Purchased Mortgage Loan has failed to perform fully Seller’s obligations under the Program

Agreements or any of the obligations of such entities with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Seller shall promptly notify Administrative Agent.

g. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller retains no economic rights to the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans; provided that the Seller shall and shall cause the Servicer to continue to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans hereunder as part of its Obligations hereunder.

13. Representations and Warranties

a. Seller represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Buyers as of the date hereof and as of each Purchase Date for any Transaction that:

(1) Seller Existence. Seller has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Michigan.

(2) Licenses. Seller 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. Seller has the requisite power and authority and legal right to originate and purchase Mortgage Loans (as applicable) and to own, sell and xxxxx x xxxx on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, and to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the terms and conditions of, each Program Agreement and any Transaction Request. Seller is an FHA Approved Mortgagee, and to the extent Seller is originating VA Loans, a VA Approved Lender.

(3) Power. Seller has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all material 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.

(4) Due Authorization. Seller 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. Each Program Agreement have been (or, in the case of Program Agreements not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by Seller, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

(5) Financial Statements. The Seller has heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent a copy of (a) its consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of the Seller ended December 31, 2016 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Seller and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year, with the opinion thereon of Xxxxxx May & Co., LLP. All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Seller and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations as at such dates and for such fiscal periods, all in accordance with GAAP (other than monthly financial statements solely with respect to footnotes, year-end adjustments and cash flow statements) applied on a consistent basis. Since December 31, 2016,

-30-

there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of the Seller and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Seller aware of any state of facts which (with notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change. Except as disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent, the Seller has, on the date of the statements delivered pursuant to this Section (the “Statement Date”) no liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Seller except as heretofore disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing.

(6) Event of Default. There exists no Event of Default under Section 15(b) hereof, which default gives rise to a right to accelerate indebtedness as referenced in Section 15(b) 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.

(7) Solvency. Seller is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Transaction and, after giving effect to such Transaction, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business.

The amount of consideration being received by Seller upon the sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for such Purchased Mortgage Loans. Seller is not transferring any Purchased Mortgage Loans with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

(8) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of each Program Agreement do not conflict with any term or provision of the formation documents or by-laws of Seller or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree applicable to Seller of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over Seller, which conflict would have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in any violation of any such mortgage, instrument, agreement or obligation to which Seller is a party.

-31-

All information, reports, exhibits, schedules, financial statements or certificates of Seller or any Affiliate thereof or any of their officers furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent or Buyers in connection with the initial or any ongoing due diligence of Seller or any Affiliate or officer thereof, and the negotiation, preparation, or delivery of the Program Agreements are true and complete and do not omit to disclose any material facts necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. All financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (other than monthly financial statements solely with respect to footnotes, year-end adjustments and cash flow statements).

(12) Material Adverse Effect. There has been no Material Adverse Effect since the date set forth in the most recent financial statements supplied to Administrative Agent as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole good faith discretion.

(13) Ownership. Upon payment of the Purchase Price and the filing of the financing statement and delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Custodian and the Custodian’s receipt of the related Request for Certification, the Administrative Agent shall become the sole owner of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and related Repurchase Assets for the benefit of the Buyers and Repledgees, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.

16. Remedies Upon Default

In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred:

a. Administrative Agent may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). Administrative Agent shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller) give notice to Seller of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

b. If Administrative Agent exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Section, (i) Seller’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Mortgage Loans, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Section, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by Administrative Agent and applied, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices for all outstanding Transactions and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder, and (iii) Seller shall immediately deliver to Administrative Agent the Mortgage Files relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions then in Seller’s possession or control.

-43-

c. Administrative Agent also shall have the right to obtain physical possession, and to commence an action to obtain physical possession, of all Records and files of Seller relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Repurchase Assets and all documents relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, any legal, credit or servicing files with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Repurchase Assets) which are then or may thereafter come in to the possession of Seller or any third party acting for Seller, provided that Seller may retain copies of all records and documents required by applicable law. To obtain physical possession of any Purchased Mortgage Loans held by Custodian, Administrative Agent shall present to Custodian a Trust Receipt. Without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Administrative Agent for Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Administrative Agent from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

d. Administrative Agent shall have the right to direct all servicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans to remit all collections thereon to Administrative Agent, and if any such payments are received by Seller, Seller shall not commingle the amounts received with other funds of Seller and shall promptly pay them over to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall also have the right to terminate any one or all of the servicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans with or without cause. In addition, Administrative Agent shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Mortgage Loans and liquidate all Repurchase Assets. Such disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans may be, at Administrative Agent’s option, on either a servicing-released or a servicing-retained basis. Administrative Agent shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Mortgage Loans with respect to any such disposition thereof. Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans. The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and liquidation of the Repurchase Assets shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof. Seller agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Administrative Agent to dispose of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to place the Purchased Mortgage Loans in a pool for issuance of mortgage-backed securities at the then-prevailing price for such securities and to sell such securities for such prevailing price in the open market. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Mortgage Loans individually for the prevailing price. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled, in its sole

-44-

discretion to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, to give the Seller credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Asset Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by the Seller hereunder.

e. Upon the happening of one or more Events of Default, Administrative Agent may apply any proceeds from the liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Repurchase Assets to the Repurchase Prices hereunder and all other Obligations in the manner Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion.

f. Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and each Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and each Buyer in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other agreement evidencing a Transaction, whether in action, suit or litigation or bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally, further including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (including the costs of internal counsel of Administrative Agent and Buyers) incurred in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction, subject to Administrative Agent’s duty to mitigate its damages.

g. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and each Buyer for interest on any amounts owing by Seller hereunder, from the date Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by Seller under this Section 16(g) shall accrue at a rate equal to the Post Default Rate.

h. Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or applicable law.

i. Administrative Agent may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Administrative Agent immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent provided in subsections (a) and (d) of this Section, at any time thereafter without notice to Seller. All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Administrative Agent may have.

-45-

j. Administrative Agent may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing if permitted by law, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Administrative Agent to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

k. Administrative Agent shall have the right to perform reasonable and customary due diligence with respect to Seller and the Mortgage Loans, which review shall be at the expense of Seller.

Seller shall furnish to Administrative Agent (i) promptly, copies of any material and adverse notices (including, without limitation, notices of defaults, termination events, breaches, potential defaults or potential breaches) and any material financial information that is not otherwise required to be provided by Seller hereunder which is given to Seller’s lenders and (ii) immediately, notice of the occurrence of any (A) Event of Default hereunder, (B) default or breach by Seller or Servicer of any obligation under any Program Agreement or any material contract or agreement of Seller or Servicer or (C) event or circumstance that such party reasonably expects has resulted in, or will, with the passage of time, result in, a Material Adverse Effect or an Event of Default or such a default or breach by such party.

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.

22. Non assignability

a. Assignments. The Program Agreements are not assignable by Seller. Subject to Section 36 (Acknowledgement of Assignment and Administration of Repurchase Agreement) hereof, Administrative Agent and Buyers may from time to time assign all or a portion of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements if (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) such assignment is to an Affiliate of Administrative Agent or a Buyer or (iii) such assignment is to any other Person, with (in respect of this clause (iii) and in the absence of an Event of Default) Seller’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however that Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees and participants (the “Register”) and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Administrative Agent and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Seller, Administrative Agent and Buyers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the preceding sentence as a Buyer hereunder. Upon such assignment and recordation in the Register, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Agreement to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder, as applicable, and (b) Administrative Agent and Buyers shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by them to either (i) an Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers which assumes the obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers, as applicable or (ii) another Person approved by Sellers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) which assumes the obligations of

-52-

Administrative Agent and Buyers, as applicable, be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Agreements. Any assignment hereunder shall be deemed a joinder of such assignee as a Buyer hereto. Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Administrative Agent unless otherwise notified by Administrative Agent in writing. Administrative Agent and Buyers may distribute to any prospective or actual assignee this Agreement, the other Program Agreements, any document or other information delivered to Administrative Agent and/or Buyers by Seller; provided, that, if such prospective or actual assignee is a residential mortgage originator, such sharing of information shall require Seller’s prior consent, not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, Administrative Agent will cause such prospective or actual assignee to execute and deliver a non-disclosure agreement agreeing to keep such information delivered by Administrative Agent and Buyers to such prospective or actual assignee confidential, subject to standard caveats and exceptions.

b. Participations. Any Buyer may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the Program Agreements; provided, however, that (i) such Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Administrative Agent and/or Buyers in connection with such Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements except as provided in Section 7. Administrative Agent and Buyers may distribute to any prospective or actual participant this Agreement, the other Program Agreements any document or other information delivered to Administrative Agent and/or Buyers by Seller; provided, that, Administrative Agent will cause such prospective or actual participant to execute and deliver a non-disclosure agreement agreeing to keep such information delivered by Administrative Agent and Buyers to such prospective or actual participant confidential, subject to standard caveats and exceptions.

23. Set-off

In addition to any rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder and by law, the Administrative Agent and Buyers shall have the right, without prior notice to the Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by the Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller or any Affiliate thereof to a 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 a Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Seller or any Affiliate thereof. The Administrative Agent agrees promptly to notify the Seller after any such set-off and application made by the Administrative Agent; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

-53-

24. Binding Effect; Governing Law; Jurisdiction

a. This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Seller acknowledges that the obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Administrative Agent and Buyers.

25. No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 6(a), 16(a) or otherwise, will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

26. Intent

a. The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, and a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code, and that the pledge of the Repurchase Assets constitutes “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” the Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Seller, Administrative Agent and Buyers further recognize and intend that this Agreement is an agreement to provide financial accommodations and is not subject to assumption pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365(a).

-54-

b. Administrative Agent’s or a Buyer’s right to liquidate the Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with the Transactions hereunder or to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or otherwise exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate, accelerate or terminate such Transaction as described in Bankruptcy Code Sections 555, 559 and 561; any payments or transfers of property made with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction to satisfy a Margin Deficit shall be considered a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5).

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, as amended (“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 “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 101(47), Section 555, Section 559 and Section 741 under the Bankruptcy Code.

f. Each party agrees that this Agreement is intended to create mutuality of obligations among the parties, and as such, the Agreement constitutes a contract which (i) is between all of the parties and (ii) places each party in the same right and capacity.

27. Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

a. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15 of the 1934 Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the SIPA do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

-55-

b. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

c. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

28. Power of Attorney

Seller hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets as Administrative Agent, at its option, may deem appropriate. Seller hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Seller’s agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statement or statements in Seller’s name and to perform all other acts which Administrative Agent deems appropriate to perfect and continue its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, and sign assignments on behalf of Seller as its agent and attorney-in-fact. This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Administrative Agent’s consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 28. In addition the foregoing, the Seller agrees to execute a Power of Attorney, in the form of Exhibit D hereto, to be delivered on the date hereof. To the extent legally permissible and practicable, within ninety (90) days following the Administrative Agent’s use of the Power of Attorney, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Seller with a list of those entities to whom the Administrative Agent presented the Power of Attorney. Provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing and (ii) Administrative Agent has no good faith claim to an assertion that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred, within ninety (90) days following the Termination Date (other than a Termination Date caused by an Event of Default), either (x) Administrative Agent shall revoke the Power of Attorney upon request of Seller or (y) Seller shall be permitted to revoke the Power of Attorney upon fifteen (15) Business Days prior notice to Administrative Agent.

29. Buyers May Act Through Administrative Agent

Each Buyer has designated the Administrative Agent for the purpose of performing any action hereunder.

30. Indemnification; Obligations

a. Seller agrees to hold Administrative Agent, Buyers and each of their respective Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify each Indemnified Party (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same is incurred) against

-56-

all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party by a third party relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Transaction Request, any Program Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby resulting from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Seller also agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy provided for herein, any Transaction Request and any Program Agreement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel. Seller’s agreements in this Section 30 shall survive the payment in full of the Repurchase Price and the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Seller hereby acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are recourse obligations of Seller and are not limited to recoveries each Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans. Seller also agrees not to assert any claim against Administrative Agent, each Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the facility established hereunder, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

b. Without limitation to the provisions of Section 4, if any payment of the Repurchase Price of any Transaction is made by Seller other than on the then scheduled Repurchase Date thereto as a result of an acceleration of the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 16 or for any other reason, Seller shall, upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay to Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers an amount sufficient to compensate Buyers for any losses, costs or expenses that they may reasonably incur as of a result of such payment.

c. Without limiting the provisions of Section 30(a) hereof, if Seller fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of Seller by Administrative Agent (subject to reimbursement by Seller), in its sole discretion.

31. Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement in a Portable Document Format (PDF) or by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of this Agreement.

Without limitation, this may include Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of the Seller. The Seller shall notify Administrative Agent immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate of Buyers provided directly to the Seller by Administrative Agent, Buyers or such Affiliate. The Seller shall provide such notice to Administrative Agent by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.

c.

36. Periodic Due Diligence Review

Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers have the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Seller and the Mortgage Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, for the purpose of performing quality control review of the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Administrative Agent, Buyers or their authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Files and any and all documents, data, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, quality control review) in the possession or under the control of Seller and/or the Custodian. Seller also shall make available to Administrative Agent and Buyers a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Mortgage Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers may purchase Mortgage Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Administrative Agent and Buyers in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Administrative Agent or Buyers, at their option, have the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Mortgage Loans purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering Broker’s price opinions, new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate such Mortgage Loan.

-60-

38. Acknowledgment of Assignment and Administration of Repurchase Agreement

Pursuant to Section 22 (Non assignability) of this Agreement, Administrative Agent may sell, transfer and convey or allocate certain Purchased Mortgage Loans and the related Repurchase Assets and related Transactions to certain affiliates of Administrative Agent and/or one or more CP Conduits (the “Additional Buyers”). Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees to the joinder of such Additional Buyers. The Administrative Agent shall administer the provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Buyers and any Repledgees, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, all payments, notices, communications and agreements pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered to, and entered into by, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Buyers and/or the Repledgees, as applicable. Furthermore, to the extent that the Administrative Agent exercises remedies pursuant to this Agreement, any of the Administrative Agent and/or any Buyer will have the right to bid on and/or purchase any of the Repurchase Assets pursuant to Section 16 (Remedies Upon Default). The benefit of all representations, rights, remedies and covenants set forth in the Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent on behalf of each Buyer and Repledgees, as applicable. All provisions of the Agreement shall survive the transfers contemplated herein (including any Repledge Transactions). Notwithstanding that multiple Buyers may purchase individual Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions entered into under this Agreement, all Transactions shall continue to be deemed a single Transaction and all of the Repurchase Assets shall be security for all of the Obligations hereunder.

44. Limited Recourse

Each party waives payment of any amount which such Buyer does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence until the day which is at least one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note (and waives any “claim” against such Buyer within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law for any such insufficiency until such date).

SCHEDULE 1

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO PURCHASED

MORTGAGE LOANS

Seller makes the following representations and warranties to Administrative Agent with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan at all times during which such Purchased Mortgage Loan is subject to a Transaction hereunder. With respect to those representations and warranties which are made to the best of a Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered by such Seller or Administrative Agent that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate, notwithstanding such Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty for purposes of determining Asset Value.

(a) 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.

(b) No Outstanding Charges. 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 Seller nor the Qualified Originator from which 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.

(c) 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 Buyers, and which has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent required, and its terms are reflected on the Custodial 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 title insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule.

Schedule 1-1

(d) 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. 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.

(e) 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 Seller as of the date of origination consistent with the Underwriting 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 greatest of (i) 100% of the replacement cost of all improvements to the Mortgaged Property, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, or (iii) the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and consistent with the amount that would have been required as of the date of origination in accordance with the Underwriting 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 1973. All such insurance policies (collectively, the “hazard insurance policy”) contain a standard mortgagee clause naming 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 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 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. 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 Seller.

Schedule 1-2

(f) Environmental Compliance. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, there does not exist on the Mortgaged Property any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, solid wastes or other pollutants, as such terms are defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq., the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. § 6901 et seq., or other applicable federal, state or local environmental laws including, without limitation, asbestos, in each case in excess of the permitted limits and allowances set forth in such environmental laws to the extent such laws are applicable to the Mortgaged Property. There is no pending action or proceeding directly involving the Mortgaged Property in which compliance with any environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue; there is no violation of any applicable environmental law (including, without limitation, asbestos), rule or regulation with respect to the Mortgaged Property; and nothing further remains to be done to satisfy in full all requirements of each such law, rule or regulation constituting a prerequisite to use and enjoyment of said property.

(g) Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, 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, and Seller shall maintain or shall cause its agent to maintain in its possession, available for the inspection of Administrative Agent, and shall deliver to Administrative Agent, upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such requirements.

(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 affect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission. 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 Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor.

(i) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property.
