ARTICLE 3

THE TRANSACTIONS

Section 3.01 Procedures.

(a) From time to time, but not more frequently than once per week, Seller may request Buyer to enter into a proposed Transaction by sending Buyer a notice substantially

in the form of Exhibit H (“Transaction Request”) not less than four (4) Business Days in advance of the proposed Purchase Date (the “Notice Date”), (i) describing the Transaction and each proposed Underlying Asset in the Pool to be subject to the Transaction, and any related Mortgaged Property and other security therefor in reasonable detail, (ii) transmitting a complete Underwriting Package for each proposed Underlying Asset, (iii) specifying which (if any) of the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in this Agreement (including those contained in Schedules 1-A and 1-B applicable to the related Underlying Assets) Seller will be unable to make with respect to such Underlying Assets, and (v) providing the valuations from the BPOs Seller has received in connection with such proposed Underlying Assets (items (i)-(iv), collectively, the “Preliminary Information”). Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer any supplemental materials requested at any time by Buyer, but only to the extent such supplemental materials are in Seller’s possession or are reasonably obtainable by Seller. Buyer shall conduct such review of the Preliminary Information and each such Underlying Asset as Buyer determines appropriate. Within four (4) Business Days of receipt of the Underwriting Package, Buyer shall determine whether or not it is willing to purchase the Assets related to the proposed Underlying Assets, and if so, on what terms and conditions (including the indicative pricing level) and shall communicate such determination to Seller in writing. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that Buyer is entering into the Transactions on the basis of all such representations and warranties and on the completeness and accuracy of the information contained in the applicable Underwriting Package, and any incompleteness or inaccuracies in the related Underwriting Package will only be acceptable to Buyer if disclosed in writing to Buyer by Seller in advance of the related Purchase Date, and then only if Buyer opts to purchase the related Asset from Seller notwithstanding such incompleteness and inaccuracies. In the event of a Representation Breach, Buyer shall have such remedies as provided in Section 3.05.

(b) Buyer shall give Seller notice of the date when Buyer has received complete Preliminary Information and supplemental materials. Buyer shall endeavor to communicate in writing to Seller a preliminary non-binding determination of whether or not it is willing to purchase such Assets, and if so, on what terms and conditions, within four (4) Business Days after such Notice Date, and if its preliminary determination is favorable, by what date Buyer expects to communicate to Seller a final non-binding indication of its determination. If Buyer has not communicated in writing, its final non-binding indication to Seller by such date, Buyer shall automatically and without further action be deemed to have determined not to purchase any such Asset.

(c) If Buyer communicates to Seller a final non-binding determination that it is willing to purchase such Assets, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an executed preliminary Confirmation for such Transaction, describing the related Underlying Assets and the proposed Purchase Date, Market Value, Applicable Percentage, Purchase Price and such other terms and conditions as Buyer may require. If Buyer requires changes to the preliminary Confirmation, Seller shall make such changes and re-execute the preliminary Confirmation. If Buyer determines to enter into the Transaction on the terms described in the preliminary Confirmation, Buyer shall promptly execute and return the same to Seller, which shall thereupon become effective as the Confirmation of the Transaction. Buyer’s approval of the purchase of an Asset on such terms and conditions as Buyer may require shall be evidenced only by its execution and delivery of the related Confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not (i) be bound by any preliminary or final non-binding determination referred to above, (ii) be deemed to have

approved the purchase of an Asset by virtue of the approval or entering into by Buyer of a rate lock agreement, total return swap or any other agreement with respect to such Asset or any Underlying Asset, or (iii) be obligated to purchase an Asset notwithstanding a Confirmation executed by the Parties unless and until all applicable conditions precedent in Article 6 have been satisfied or waived by Buyer.

(d) Each Confirmation, together with this Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Transaction covered thereby, and shall be construed to be cumulative to the extent possible. If terms in a Confirmation are inconsistent with terms in this Agreement with respect to a particular Transaction, the Confirmation shall prevail. Whenever the Applicable Percentage or any other term of a Transaction (other than the Pricing Rate, Market Value and outstanding Purchase Price) with respect to an Asset or Underlying Asset is revised or adjusted in accordance with this Agreement, an amended and restated Confirmation reflecting such revision or adjustment and that is otherwise acceptable to the Parties shall be prepared by Seller and executed by the Parties.

(e) The fact that Buyer has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete examination or any other due diligence review of any Underlying Asset or Purchased Asset shall in no way affect any rights Buyer may have under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise with respect to any representations or warranties or other rights or remedies thereunder or otherwise, including the right to determine at any time that such Underlying Asset or Purchased Asset is not an Eligible Asset.

(f) Buyer shall have no obligation to enter into any Transaction if (i) any Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default exists or would exist as a result of such Transaction, (ii) the Repurchase Date for the Purchased Assets subject to such Transaction would be later than the Facility Termination Date, or (iii) after giving effect to such Transaction, the Aggregate Purchase Price then outstanding would exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price.

(g) The Grantor Trust Certificate and the Pass-Through Trust Certificate purchased by Buyer hereunder shall, as of any date, (i) represent 100% of the then current Equity Interests in the Grantor Trust and the Pass-Through Trust, respectively, (ii) collectively represent 100% of the indirect Equity Interests in the Titling Trust related Underlying Entity and (iii) for all intents and purposes hereunder, represent the Buyer’s indirect beneficial ownership of 100% of the Underlying Assets. For the sake of clarity, (x) the Purchase Price for the Initial Trust Interests shall be calculated with respect to the Underlying Assets that are then owned by the Underlying Entities as of the Initial Purchase Date, and (y) the Purchase Price for any Additional Trust Interests shall be calculated with respect to additional Underlying Assets that will be acquired by the Underlying Entities from time to time. Similarly, the calculation of Margin Deficit, Market Value, Price Differential, Repurchase Price or any other valuations of all or a portion of the Purchased Assets shall be with respect to the related Underlying Assets, as the context may require.

(h) From time to time, at the option of Seller in accordance with this Agreement, the Repurchase Documents and the related Structural Agreements, certain Participation Interests that support the Grantor Trust Interests may be cancelled, upon foreclosure of the related Eligible Mortgage Loan, and reissued to the Pass-Through Trust as

Participation Interests in respect of Eligible REO Property (the “Converted Trust Interests”). In such case, the value of the Pass-Through Trust Interests shall increase in proportion to such newly issued Participation Interests and the value of the Grantor Trust Interests shall decrease in proportion to such cancelled Participation Interests. Provided that the related Underlying Assets are and continue to be Eligible Assets, from and after the related Conversion Date, such additional Pass-Through Trust Interests shall automatically be subject to a Transaction with respect to such Underlying Assets.

Section 3.02 Transfer of Purchased Assets.

(a) On the Purchase Date for each Purchased Asset, and subject to the satisfaction of all applicable conditions precedent in Article 6, (a) ownership of and title to such Purchased Asset shall be transferred to and vest in Buyer or its designee against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase Price to the account of Seller specified in Schedule 2 (or if not specified therein, in the related Confirmation or as directed by Seller), and (b) Seller hereby sells, transfers, conveys and assigns to Buyer all of Seller’s right, title and interest (but no Retained Interests) in and to the related Purchased Assets. Subject to this Agreement, during the Funding Period, Seller may sell to Buyer, repurchase from Buyer and re-sell Eligible Assets to Buyer, but may not substitute other Eligible Assets for Purchased Assets.

(b) Upon the transfer of any Underlying Entity Equity Interests to Buyer as set forth herein and until termination of any related Transactions as set forth herein, ownership of such Underlying Entity Equity Interests held by Seller shall be vested in the Buyer; provided that Buyer shall only be deemed to have all rights of Seller (and none of the obligations of Seller) thereunder. It is a condition precedent of each Transaction that each Trust Certificate be certificated and be re-registered in Buyer’s name. It is the intent of the parties that the transfers to Buyer provided for hereby shall be deemed to be “assignments” of the Grantor Trust Interests and the Pass-Through Trust Interests and that such assignments be governed by and treated accordingly as such under the terms of the Governing Documents of the Grantor Trust and the Pass-Through Trust, respectively. Nothing set forth in any Underlying Entity Agreement shall be deemed to require any further consent, notice, execution of documents or instruments, or any other action by Seller or Buyer or any other Person to effectuate the admission of Buyer or its assignee or designee as the beneficial owner and registered holder of any of the Trust Certificates.

Section 3.03 Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price. The Aggregate Purchase Price for all Purchased Assets as of any date shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price. If at any time the Aggregate Purchase Price exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price, Seller shall, at Buyer’s request, repurchase Purchased Assets subject to Transactions and remit to Buyer the Repurchase Price with respect to each such Purchased Asset such that the Aggregate Purchase Price following such repurchase shall be less than or equal to the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price, by 5:00p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following Buyer’s request if made before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, or if such request is made after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day following such request.

Section 3.04 Early Repurchase Date; Mandatory Repurchases.

(a) Seller may terminate all or any portion of a Transaction on any date prior to the related Repurchase Date by effecting a Sale and Disposition with respect to any or all Underlying Assets (an “Early Repurchase Date”); provided, that (i) Seller irrevocably notifies Buyer at least five (5) Business Days before the proposed Early Repurchase Date identifying the Underlying Assets to be repurchased and the Repurchase Price thereof (which for the avoidance of doubt shall only include accrued and unpaid Price Differential through but excluding the proposed Early Repurchase Date), (ii) Seller delivers a certificate from a Responsible Officer of Seller in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer certifying that no Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default exists or would exist as a result of such repurchase (or would not be fully cured after applying the related Net Liquidation Proceeds in accordance with Section 5.02), (iii) if the Early Repurchase Date is not a Remittance Date, Seller pays to Buyer any amount due under Section 12.03, (iv) Seller pays to Buyer any Exit Fee due in accordance with the terms of the Fee Letter, (v) all amounts required to be remitted pursuant to Section 3.05 in connection with such repurchase are remitted to the Waterfall Account in accordance with Section 5.01 and (vi) Seller thereafter complies with Section 3.05. Buyer shall cooperate with Seller in connection with Seller effecting a Sale and Disposition with respect to the Underlying Assets including without limitations entering into bailee letters and escrow arrangements as reasonably requested by Seller in connection such Sale and Disposition. Unless otherwise permitted Buyer, such early terminations and repurchases shall be limited to three (3) occurrences in any calendar week. If Seller effects a Sale and Disposition with respect to any Purchased Assets, Buyer shall instruct the Account Bank to apply all Income deposited in the Waterfall Account in respect of such Sale and Disposition on the related Early Repurchase Date in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 5.02 herein. For the sake of clarity, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document shall limit or otherwise restrict Seller’s ability to reduce the Aggregate Purchase Price by remitting cash directly to Buyer to be applied towards such reduction.

(b) In addition to other rights and remedies of Buyer under any Repurchase Document, if Buyer determines on any date that any Underlying Asset is not an Eligible Asset or is the subject of a Representation Breach, at Buyer’s request, Seller shall pay Buyer the Repurchase Price allocable to such Underlying Assets and shall cause the applicable Underlying Entity to sell or otherwise transfer out such Underlying Asset (1) if Buyer delivers notice of such request before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on a Business Day, by no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the following Business Day or (2) if Buyer delivers notice of such request after 11:00 a.m. New York City time on a Business Day, by no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time two (2) Business Days following the date of such notice.

Section 3.05 Repurchase. On the Repurchase Date for each Purchased Asset, provided that no Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default exists or will result from such repurchase (and would not be fully cured after applying the related Repurchase Price in accordance with Section 5.02), Seller shall transfer to Buyer the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Asset (or in the case of a Sale and Disposition with respect to an Underlying Asset, the Net Liquidation Proceeds) to the Waterfall Account pursuant to Section 5.01, whereupon the Transaction with respect to such repurchased Purchased Assets will terminate and the outstanding Repurchase Price for the repurchased Purchased Assets shall be reduced by the Purchase Price for such Purchased Assets remitted to the Waterfall Account. Subject to the penultimate sentence of this Section 3.05, upon receipt of the Repurchase Price for the related Purchased Assets (which

Repurchase Price may be paid with funds received in connection with a Sale and Disposition of related Underlying Assets), Buyer shall be deemed to have simultaneously released its security interest in such Purchased Asset and shall authorize Custodian to release to Seller or its designee the Underlying Asset Documents for such Purchased Asset. Any such transfer shall be without recourse to Buyer and without representation or warranty by Buyer. Any Income with respect to the repurchase of such Purchased Asset received by Buyer or Account Bank after payment of the Repurchase Price therefor shall be remitted to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or before the Facility Termination Date and if no Default or Event of Default exists, the Seller shall repurchase all Purchased Assets by paying to Buyer the outstanding Repurchase Price therefor and all other outstanding Repurchase Obligations.

Section 3.06 Release of Security Interest. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained hereunder or elsewhere in any Repurchase Document, Buyer shall not be deemed to release its security interest in any Purchased Assets or its interests in any Underlying Assets that are repurchased pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.05 if (i) the repurchase thereof results in a Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default that is not cured simultaneously with such repurchase, or (ii) at any time during the existence of an uncured Default or Event of Default or is caused by such repurchase, unless and until Buyer shall have been paid in full for the aggregate outstanding Repurchase Prices for all Purchased Assets and all other outstanding Repurchase Obligations. Seller shall not repurchase a Purchased Asset in connection with a full payoff of an Underlying Asset by the Obligor, unless one-hundred percent (100%) of the net proceeds due in connection with the relevant payoff shall be paid directly to Buyer, together with payment of the excess of the then current Repurchase Price over such net proceeds (if any). The portion of all such net proceeds in excess of the then-current Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Asset (if any) shall be applied by Buyer to reduce any other Repurchase Obligations due and payable to Buyer.

Section 3.07 Extension Option. At the request of Seller delivered to Buyer no earlier than ninety (90) or later than thirty (30) days before the Facility Termination Date, Buyer may grant one (1) year extension of the Facility Termination Date (an “Extended Facility Termination Date”) by giving notice approving such extension and the Extended Facility Termination Date to Seller no later than fifteen (15) days before the expiration of the then-current Facility Termination Date. The failure of Buyer to so deliver such notice approving the extension shall be deemed to be Buyer’s determination not to extend the Facility Termination Date unless Buyer thereafter gives written notice to the contrary. Any extension of the Facility Termination Date shall be subject to the following: (i) no Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default exists on the date of the request to extend or the current Facility Termination Date, (ii) all Purchased Assets must qualify as Eligible Assets, and (iii) the payment by Seller to Buyer of the Extension Fee on or before the current Facility Termination Date.

Section 3.08 Payment of Price Differential and Fees.

(a) Notwithstanding that Buyer and Seller intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Assets for all but U.S. federal income tax purposes, Seller shall pay to Buyer the accrued value of the Price Differential for each Purchased Asset on each Remittance Date. Buyer shall give Seller notice of the Price Differential and any fees and other amounts due under the Repurchase Documents on or prior

to the Remittance Date; provided, that Buyer’s failure to deliver such notice shall not affect Seller’s obligation to pay such amounts. If the Price Differential includes any estimated Price Differential, Buyer shall recalculate such Price Differential after the Remittance Date and, if necessary, make adjustments to the Price Differential amount due on the following Remittance Date or promptly return any overpayment due to the related Seller if the amount of such overpayment is greater than $5,000.

(b) If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Remittance Date with respect to any Purchased Asset, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer (in addition to, and together with, the amount of such Price Differential) interest on the unpaid Repurchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate until the Price Differential is received in full by Buyer.

(c) Seller shall pay to Buyer all fees and other amounts as and when due as set forth in this Agreement and the Fee Letter including, without limitation:

(i) the Facility Fee, which shall be due and earned in full (without reduction, set-off or refund in the event of any early termination of this Agreement) by Seller on the Closing Date; provided, that the Facility Fee shall be payable in twelve (12) equal installments, with the first such installment payable on the Initial Purchase Date and the remaining installments payable on the Remittance Date in each of the following eleven (11) months; provided, further, that an unpaid installments of the Facility Fee shall be payable in full upon the occurrence of an Event of Default;

(ii) any Funding Fee, which shall be due, earned and payable in full on each related Purchase Date;

(iii) the Extension Fee, which shall be due and payable by Seller on the date of the exercise by Seller of the extension of the Facility Termination Date pursuant to Section 3.07; and

(iv) the Exit Fee, which shall be due and payable by Seller with respect to each Purchased Asset that is subject to an early repurchase by Seller pursuant to Section 3.05 on the related Early Repurchase Date.

Section 3.09 Payment, Transfer and Custody.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts required to be paid or deposited by Seller, Guarantors or any other Person under the Repurchase Documents shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due, in immediately available Dollars and without deduction, setoff or counterclaim, and if not received before such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. Whenever any payment under the Repurchase Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of such payment. Seller and Guarantors shall, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, pay to Buyer interest in connection with any amounts not paid when due

under the Repurchase Documents, which interest shall be calculated at a rate equal to the LIBO Rate plus the Pricing Margin plus the Default Rate, until all such amounts are received in full by Buyer. Amounts payable to Buyer and not otherwise required to be remitted directly to Buyer or deposited into another Account shall be deposited into the Waterfall Account. None of any Relevant Party or Servicer shall have any rights in, rights of withdrawal from, or rights to give notices or instructions regarding any Account, unless otherwise expressly permitted in the related Servicer Letter Agreement, the Account Control Agreement or this Agreement. Amounts in the Waterfall Account and the Interest Reserve Account may be invested at the direction of Buyer in Cash Equivalents before they are distributed in accordance with Article 5.

(b) Any Underlying Asset Documents not delivered to Buyer or Custodian are and shall be held in trust by Seller or their agent for the benefit of Buyer as the owner of the related Purchased Asset. Seller or its agent shall maintain a copy of the Underlying Asset Documents and the originals of the Underlying Asset Documents not delivered to Custodian. The possession of Underlying Asset Documents by Seller or their agent is in a custodial capacity only at the will of Buyer for the sole purpose of assisting the Servicer with its duties under the Servicing Agreement. Each Underlying Asset Document retained or held by Seller or its agent shall be segregated on the related Seller’s books and records from the other assets of Seller or its agent, and the books and records of Seller or its agent shall be marked to reflect clearly the sale of the related Purchased Asset to Buyer. Seller or its related agent shall release its custody of the Underlying Asset Documents only in accordance with written instructions from Buyer, unless such release required as incidental to the servicing of the Underlying Assets by any Servicer is in connection with a repurchase of any Underlying Asset by Seller, in accordance with the Custodial Agreement.

Section 3.10 Repurchase Obligations Absolute. All amounts payable by Seller under the Repurchase Documents shall be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense (as to any Person and for any reason whatsoever) and without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction (as to any Person and for any reason whatsoever), and the Repurchase Obligations shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected, except as expressly provided herein, by reason of: (a) any damage to, destruction of, taking of, restriction or prevention of the use of, interference with the use of, title defect in, encumbrance on or eviction from, any Underlying Asset or related Mortgaged Property, (b) any Insolvency Proceeding relating to Seller or any Obligor, or any action taken with respect to any Repurchase Document or Underlying Asset Document by any trustee or receiver of Seller or any Obligor or by any court in any such proceeding, (c) any claim that Seller has or might have against Buyer under any Repurchase Document or otherwise, (d) any default or failure on the part of Buyer to perform or comply with any Repurchase Document or other agreement with Seller, (e) the invalidity or unenforceability of any Purchased Asset, Underlying Asset, Repurchase Document, Structural Agreement or Underlying Asset Document, or (f) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, and whether or not Seller has notice or Knowledge of any of the foregoing.

(a) (i) If, on any date, the Market Value of all Purchased Assets (excluding Additional Purchased Assets and Margin Assets) subject to a Transaction as of such date is less than the product of (A) Buyer’s Maximum Margin Percentage times (B) the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for such Purchased Assets as of such date (a “Transaction Margin Deficit”), and such Transaction Margin Deficit, minus the Pledged Market Value of any Additional Purchased Assets previously transferred to Buyer and currently subject to such Transaction, exceeds the Minimum Margin Call Amount, Buyer may provide notice to Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below and in Section 4.01(b) (a “Transaction Margin Call”)) of such Transaction Margin Deficit. Such notice shall require Seller, in Buyer’s discretion, to (i) transfer cash to Buyer, (ii) repurchase Purchased Assets at the Repurchase Price thereof, (iii) if Seller and Buyer (in its discretion) agree, transfer to Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) for no additional consideration additional Eligible Grantor Trust Interests or Eligible Pass-Through Trust Interests, as applicable (“Additional Purchased Assets”) and Margin Assets, or (iv) deliver any combination of the foregoing, so that, in each such case, after giving effect to such transfers, repurchases and payments, the Aggregate Purchase Price for all Purchased Assets does not exceed the aggregate Market Value thereof multiplied by the Applicable Percentage; provided, that Seller may request and Buyer (in its discretion) may apply the Pledged Market Value of any previously delivered Additional Purchased Assets or Margin Assets to reduce such Transaction Margin Deficit; provided further, that that the Pledged Market Value of any Additional Purchased Asset or Margin Assets shall not be applied to more than one Margin Deficit on any date. Buyer shall apply the funds received in satisfaction of a Transaction Margin Deficit to the Repurchase Obligations in such manner as Buyer determines. For the avoidance of doubt a Transaction Margin Call may be made with respect to a single Purchased Asset or multiple Purchased Assets.

(ii) If, on any Purchase Date, Early Repurchase Date or Remittance Date, the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Assets (excluding Additional Purchased Assets and Margin Assets) is less than the sum of the products for all Purchased Assets of (A) the Purchase Price of each Purchased Asset and (B) the Buyer’s Margin Percentage for such Purchased Asset (a “Facility Margin Deficit”), and such Facility Margin Deficit, minus the Pledged Market Value of any Additional Purchased Assets previously transferred to Buyer and currently subject to such Transaction, exceeds the Minimum Margin Call Amount, Buyer may provide notice to Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below and in Section 4.01(b) (a “Facility Margin Call”)) of such Facility Margin Deficit. Such notice shall require Seller, in Buyer’s discretion, to (i) transfer cash to Buyer, (ii) repurchase Purchased Assets at the Repurchase Price thereof, (iii) if Seller and Buyer (in its discretion) agree, transfer Additional Purchased Assets and Margin Assets for no additional consideration, or (iv) deliver any combination of the foregoing, so that, in each such case, after giving effect to such transfers, repurchases and payments, Facility Margin Deficit is reduced to zero; provided, that Seller may request and Buyer (in its discretion) may apply the Pledged Market Value of any previously delivered Additional Purchased Assets or Margin Assets to reduce such Facility Margin Deficit;

provided further, that that the Pledged market Value of any Additional Purchased Asset or Margin Assets shall not be applied to more than one Margin Deficit on any date. Buyer shall apply the funds received in satisfaction of a Facility Margin Deficit to the Repurchase Obligations in such manner as Buyer determines. For the avoidance of doubt a Facility Margin Call may be made with respect to a single Purchased Asset or multiple Purchased Assets.

(b) Notice delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(a) may be given by any written means. A notice given by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following delivery of such notice and a notice given after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any 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 Business Day following delivery of such notice (the foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”). The failure of 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 Buyer to do so at a later date.

(c) Buyer’s failure to exercise its rights hereunder on any one or more occasions, including Buyer’s election not to deliver a Margin Call at any time there is a Margin Deficit shall not waive such Margin Deficit or in any way limit or impair Buyer’s right to exercise such rights or deliver a Margin Call at any time when the same or any other Margin Deficit exists nor shall it change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject. Buyer’s rights under this Section 4.01 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other rights of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents or Requirements of Law.

(d) All cash to be transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Section 4.01 with respect to a Purchased Asset shall be remitted directly to the Buyer. Buyer shall apply the funds received in satisfaction of a Margin Deficit to the Repurchase Obligations as soon as possible upon receipt in such manner as Buyer determines.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, Additional Purchased Assets and Margin Assets transferred to Buyer in satisfaction of a Margin Deficit pursuant to Section 4.01 shall become property of Buyer to the same extent as are Purchased Assets.

Section 4.02 Margin Assets.

(a) Seller may, with the consent of Buyer, enter into a Transaction to transfer and convey Margin Assets to Buyer or Custodian for no additional consideration. Any Confirmation related to a transfer of Margin Assets shall note that the Eligible Assets transferred under such Confirmation are designated as Margin Assets. Buyer shall retain all Income and other proceeds related to the Margin Assets and shall apply such amounts in accordance with Article 5 hereof.

(b) The Repurchase Price for any Margin Asset shall be equal to the amount necessary such that, after giving effect to the repurchase of such Margin Asset, a Margin Deficit will not exist; provided, that on and after the Facility Termination Date, no Margin Asset shall be transferred to Seller until the payment in full of the Repurchase Obligations.

Prior to an Event of Default, upon payment of the Repurchase Price for any Margin Asset, Buyer shall transfer and release such Margin Asset to Seller in accordance with Sections 3.04 and 3.05.

ARTICLE 7

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Seller’s and each Underlying Entity’s location (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC), and the office where it keeps all records (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) relating to the Purchased Assets is at the respective address referred to in Schedule 2. None of Seller nor any Underlying Entity has changed location within the past twelve (12) months. Seller has no Subsidiaries other than the Underlying Entities. The fiscal year of Seller is the calendar year. Seller has no Indebtedness other than the Permitted Indebtedness. No Underlying Entity has any Indebtedness, Contractual Obligations, Guarantee Obligations or investments other than the Repurchase Documents and the Structural Agreements.

Section 7.02 Repurchase Documents. Each Repurchase Document to which Seller and each Underlying Entity is a party has been duly executed and delivered by Seller and such Underlying Entity and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller and each Underlying Entity enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Insolvency Laws and general principles of equity. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller and each Underlying Entity of each Repurchase Document to which it is a party do not and will not (a) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, any (i) Governing Document, Indebtedness, Guarantee Obligation or Contractual Obligation applicable to it or any of its properties or assets, (ii) Requirements of Law, or (iii) approval, consent, judgment, decree, order or demand of any Governmental Authority, or (b) result in the creation of any Lien on any of its properties or assets (other than the Lien granted to Buyer pursuant to or by the Repurchase Documents). All approvals, authorizations, consents, orders, filings, notices or other actions of any Person or Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Seller and each Underlying Entity of the Repurchase Documents to which it is a party and the sale of and grant of a security interest in each Purchased Asset to Buyer, have been obtained, effected, waived or given and are in full force and effect. The execution, delivery and performance of the Repurchase Documents do not require compliance by Seller or any Underlying Entity with any “bulk sales” or similar law. There is no litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller threatened, against any Relevant Party

before any Governmental Authority (a) asserting the invalidity of any Repurchase Document or Structural Agreement, (b) seeking to prevent the consummation of any Transaction, or (c) seeking any determination or ruling that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.03 Solvency. Neither Seller nor any other Relevant Party is or has ever been the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding. Seller and each other Relevant Party is Solvent and the Transactions do not and will not render Seller or any other Relevant Party not Solvent. Seller is not entering into the Repurchase Documents or any Transaction with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor of Seller, any other Relevant Party or any Affiliate thereof. Seller has received or will receive reasonably equivalent value for the Repurchase Documents and each Transaction. Seller has adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character and in light of its contemplated business operations. Seller is generally able to pay, and as of the date hereof is paying, its debts as they come due.

Section 7.04 Taxes. Seller and each other Relevant Party have filed all required federal income tax returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign, required to be filed by them and have paid all material taxes (including mortgage recording taxes), assessments, fees, and other governmental charges payable by them, or with respect to any of their properties or assets, which have become due, and income or franchise taxes have been paid or are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which appropriate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP. Seller and each other Relevant Party have paid, or have provided adequate reserves for the payment of, all such taxes for all prior fiscal years and for the current fiscal year to date. There is no material action, suit, proceeding, investigation, audit or claim relating to any such taxes now pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened by any Governmental Authority which is not being contested in good faith as provided above. Neither Seller nor any other Relevant Party has entered into any agreement or waiver or been requested to enter into any agreement or waiver extending any statute of limitations relating to the payment or collection of taxes, or is aware of any circumstances that would cause the taxable years or other taxable periods of any Relevant Party not to be subject to the normally applicable statute of limitations. No tax liens have been filed against any assets of any Relevant Party (other than Permitted Liens with respect to the Underlying Assets). Seller does not intend to treat any Transaction as being a “reportable transaction” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4. If Seller determines to take any action inconsistent with such intention, it will promptly notify Buyer, in which case Buyer may treat each Transaction as subject to Treasury Regulation Section 301.6112-1 and will maintain the lists and other records required thereunder.

Section 7.05 Financial Condition. The (i) audited balance sheet of Guarantors as at the fiscal year most recently ended for which such audited balance sheet is available, and the related audited statements of income, stockholders’ equity and retained earnings and of cash flows for the fiscal year then ended, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year, reported on without a “going concern” or like qualification arising out of the audit conducted by their respective independent certified public accountants, and (ii) unaudited balance sheet of Guarantors as of the fiscal quarter most recently ended for which such unaudited balance sheet is available and the related unaudited statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the fiscal quarter then ended, setting forth in each case in comparative form

All such financial statements, including related schedules and notes, will be prepared in accordance with GAAP except as disclosed therein. Neither Seller nor any Guarantor has any material contingent liability or liability for taxes or any long term lease or unusual forward or long term commitment, including any Derivative Contract, which is not reflected in the foregoing statements or notes. Since the date of the financial statements and other information delivered to Buyer prior to the Closing Date or except as publicly disclosed by REIT Guarantor in filings at the Securities and Exchange Commission, neither Seller nor any Guarantor has sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any material part of its property or assets (except pursuant to the Repurchase Documents) or acquired any property or assets (including Equity Interests of any other Person) that are material in relation to the financial condition of Seller or Guarantors.

Section 7.06 True and Complete Disclosure. The information, reports, certificates, documents, financial statements, operating statements, forecasts, books, records, files, exhibits and schedules furnished by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer in connection with the Repurchase Documents and the Transactions, when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All written information prepared by or on behalf of Seller and furnished to Buyer after the date hereof in connection with the Repurchase Documents and the Transactions will be true, correct and complete in all material respects, or in the case of projections will be based on reasonable estimates prepared and presented in good faith, on the date as of which such information is stated or certified.

No Relevant Party has made, offered, promised or authorized a payment of money or anything else of value (a) in order to assist in obtaining or retaining business for or with, or directing business to, any foreign official, foreign political party, party official or candidate for foreign political office, (b) to any foreign official, foreign political party, party official or candidate for foreign political office, or (c) with the intent to induce the recipient to misuse his or her official position to direct business wrongfully to any Relevant Party or any other Person, in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Section 7.08 Compliance with ERISA. None of Seller, any Guarantor nor any ERISA Affiliate has, at any time, established, sponsored, contributed to or had any obligation to contribute to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan and there are no circumstances under which either Seller, any Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate could reasonably be expected to have any liability or obligations with respect to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan. To the extent Seller provides medical or health benefits to former employees as required by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, as amended, or similar state or local law (collectively, “COBRA”), it does so at no cost to the employer. None of the assets of any Relevant Party are deemed to be plan assets within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA.

Section 7.09 No Default or Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default exists hereunder. No event of default (however defined) exists under any Indebtedness, Guarantee Obligations or Contractual Obligations of Seller or any Relevant Party or under any Structural Agreement. Seller believes that it is and will be able to pay and perform each agreement, duty, obligation and covenant contained in the Repurchase Documents to which it is a party, and that it is not subject to any agreement, obligation, restriction or Requirements of Law which would unduly burden its ability to do so or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Seller has no Knowledge of any actual or prospective development, event or other fact that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Internal Control Event has occurred.

Section 7.10 Underlying Assets; Trust Interests. Each Underlying Asset, each Grantor Trust Interest, and each Pass-Through Trust Interest is an Eligible Asset. Each representation and warranty of Seller set forth in the Repurchase Documents (including those contained in Schedules 1-A and 1-B applicable to the related Underlying Assets) and the Underlying Asset Documents with respect to each Underlying Asset is true and correct. The review and inquiries made on behalf of Seller in connection with the next preceding sentence have been made by Persons having the requisite expertise, knowledge and background to verify such representations and warranties. Seller has complied with all requirements of the Custodial Agreement with respect to each Underlying Asset, including delivery to Custodian of all required Underlying Asset Documents. Seller has no Knowledge of any fact that could reasonably lead it to expect that any Underlying Asset will not be paid in full. No Purchased Asset or Underlying Asset is or has been the subject of any compromise, adjustment, extension, satisfaction, subordination, rescission, setoff, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, deduction, reduction, termination or modification, whether arising out of transactions concerning such Underlying Asset or otherwise, by any Relevant Party, any Servicer, Transferor, Obligor or other Person, except as set forth in the Underlying Asset Documents delivered to Buyer. None of the Underlying Asset Documents has any marks or notations indicating that it has been sold, assigned, pledged, encumbered or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than Buyer. If any Underlying Asset Document requires the holder or transferee of the related Underlying Asset to be a qualified transferee, qualified institutional lender or qualified lender (however defined), the relate Underlying Entity meets such requirement. Assuming that Buyer also meets such requirement, the pledge of such Purchased Asset to Buyer pursuant to the Repurchase Documents does not violate any such Underlying Asset Document. No Purchased Asset or

Underlying Asset contravenes any Requirements of Laws. To Seller’s Knowledge, no properties presently or previously owned or leased by Seller or its predecessors contain or previously contained any Materials of Environmental Concern that constitute or constituted a violation of Environmental Laws or reasonably could be expected to give rise to liability of any Relevant Party thereunder. Seller has no Knowledge of any violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability of any Relevant Party under any Environmental Law.

Section 7.11 Acquisition of Underlying Assets. With respect to each Underlying Asset acquired by the Seller, the Depositor, or the HUD Purchaser, as applicable, from a Transferor and contributed to the Titling Trust, (a) such Underlying Asset was acquired and transferred on a legal true sale basis pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, (b) such Transferor received reasonably equivalent value in consideration for the transfer of such Underlying Asset, (c) no such transfer was made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by such Transferor to the Titling Trust or an Affiliate of the Titling Trust, (d) no such transfer is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code, and (e) the representations and warranties made by such Transferor to the Seller, the Depositor, or the HUD Purchaser, as applicable, in such Purchase Agreement are hereby incorporated herein mutatis mutandis and are hereby remade by Seller to Buyer on each date as of which they speak in such Purchase Agreement. The Titling Trust has issued Participation Interests to each of the Grantor Trust and the Pass-Through Trust in respect of certain Underlying Assets pursuant to the terms of the Participation Agreement, and the Titling Trust retains no beneficial or economic interests in such Underlying Assets. The issuance of the Participation Interests by the Titling Trust to the Grantor Trust and Pass-Through Trust was not for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by the Titling Trust to such Grantor Trust or Pass-Through Trust, and is not voidable or subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 7.12 Transfer and Security Interest. The Repurchase Documents constitute a valid and effective transfer to Buyer of all right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under all Purchased Assets, free and clear of any Liens. With respect to the protective security interests granted by Seller and each Underlying Entity in Section 11.01, upon the delivery of the Confirmations and the Underlying Asset Documents to Custodian, the execution and delivery of the Controlled Account Agreement and the filing of the UCC financing statements as provided herein, such security interest shall be a valid first priority perfected security interest to the extent such security interest can be perfected by possession, filing or control under the UCC. Upon receipt by Custodian of each Underlying Asset Document required to be endorsed in blank by Seller and payment by Buyer of the Purchase Price for the related Purchased Asset, Buyer shall have a valid first priority perfected security interest in such Underlying Asset Document. The Purchased Assets constitute the following, as defined in the UCC: a general intangible, instrument, investment property, security, deposit account, financial asset, uncertificated security, securities account, or security entitlement. None of Seller nor any Underlying Entity has sold, assigned, pledged, granted a security interest in, encumbered or otherwise conveyed any of the Purchased Assets to any Person other than pursuant to the Repurchase Documents. None of Seller nor any Underlying Entity has authorized the filing of and is not aware of any UCC financing statements filed against Seller or any Underlying Entity as debtor that include the Purchased Assets, other than any financing statement that has been terminated or filed pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 7.13 No Broker. No Relevant Party or any Affiliate thereof has dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other Person, except for Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, who may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with any Transaction.

Section 7.14 Trust Certificates.

(a) The Grantor Trust Certificates issued and outstanding as of the related Purchase Date and delivered to Buyer pursuant to Sections 6.02(d) constitute all the issued and outstanding Grantor Trust Interests of the Grantor Trust. The Pass-Through Trust Certificates issued and outstanding as of the related Purchase Date and delivered to Buyer pursuant to Sections 6.01(d) constitute all of the issued and outstanding Pass-Through Trust Interests of the Pass-Through Trust.

(b) Each Trust Certificate has been duly and validly issued in compliance with applicable law and the applicable Underlying Entity Agreement and is fully paid and nonassessable.

(c) Immediately prior to the re-registration thereof in the name of Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, Seller is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good title to, each Trust Certificate, representing all of the Trust Interests in the Grantor Trust and the Pass-Through Trust, free of any and all liens or options in favor of, or claims of, any other Person, except the security interest created by this Agreement.

(d) Each Trust Certificate and the related Trust Interests are unencumbered (other than Liens created in favor of Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and Liens created by or through Buyer). There are (i) no outstanding rights, options, warrants or agreements (other than as created by Buyer) for a purchase, sale or issuance, in connection with any Trust Certificate or related Trust Interests, (ii) no agreements on the part of Seller to issue, sell or distribute any Trust Certificate or related Trust Interests, and (iii) no obligations on the part of Seller (contingent or otherwise) to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any securities or any interest therein or to pay any dividend or make any distribution in respect of any each Trust Certificate.

(e) Each Trust Certificate is a certificated security in registered form.

Section 7.16 Tax Status. Neither Seller nor any Underlying Entity has made a tax election to be afforded status as a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code.

Section 7.17 Location of Books and Records. The location where Seller keeps its books and records, including all computer tapes and records relating to the Purchased Assets is its chief executive office.

Section 7.18 Chief Executive Office; Jurisdiction of Organization. On the Effective Date, the jurisdiction of organization of each of Seller and each Underlying Entity is Delaware. Seller shall provide Buyer with thirty (30) days advance notice of any change in the principal

office or place of business or jurisdiction of Seller or any Underlying Entity. Seller does not have a trade name. During the preceding five (5) years, Seller has not been known by or done business under any other name, corporate or fictitious, and has not filed or had filed against it any bankruptcy receivership or similar petitions nor has it made any assignments for the benefit of creditors.

Section 7.19 REIT Status. REIT Guarantor has (i) maintained its status as a REIT under all applicable laws and regulations and (ii) complied with the conditions and limitations set forth in Section 856(c)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and any Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

Each such Structural Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the makers thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles. The enforceability of each such Structural Agreement has not been contested by any party thereto. There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under any Structural Agreement and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder.

Section 7.21 Investment Company Act. None of Seller, any Guarantor, Program Administrator, Investment Manager or any Underlying Entity is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

Section 7.22 No Adverse Selection. No procedures believed by Seller to be adverse to Buyer were utilized by Seller or Servicer in identifying or selecting the proposed Pools or Purchased Assets comprising a Pool for sale to Buyer or in connection with any Sale and Disposition.

If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the foregoing option:

(a) All Repurchase Obligations shall become immediately due and payable on and as of the Accelerated Repurchase Date.

(b) All amounts in the Accounts and all Income paid after the Accelerated Repurchase Date shall be retained by Buyer and applied in accordance with Article 5.

Buyer may obtain physical possession of all Servicing Files and other files and records of Seller or Servicer. Seller shall deliver to Buyer such assignments and other documents with respect thereto as Buyer shall request.

(d) Buyer may immediately, at any time and from time to time, exercise either of the following remedies with respect to any or all of the Purchased Assets: (i) sell some or all of the Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets on a servicing-released basis and/or without providing any representations and warranties on an “as-is where is” basis, in a recognized market and by means of a public or private sale at such price or prices as Buyer accepts, and apply the net proceeds thereof in accordance with Article 5, or (ii) retain such Purchased Assets or Underlying Assets and give Seller credit against the Repurchase Price for such retained Purchased Assets (or if the amount of such credit exceeds the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets, to credit against Repurchase Obligations due and any other amounts then owing to Buyer by any other Person pursuant to any Repurchase Document, in such order and in such amounts as determined by Buyer), in an amount equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Assets (calculated with respect to the Underlying Assets). Until such time as Buyer exercises either such remedy with respect to a Purchased Assets or Underlying Assets, Buyer may hold such Purchased Assets and Underlying Assets for its own account and retain all Income with respect thereto. Buyer shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets with respect to any such disposition thereof. Buyer may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets. The foregoing procedure for disposition and liquidation of the Purchased Assets and the Underlying 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 Buyer to dispose of the Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and Seller of assets. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that Buyer shall be entitled to place the Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets 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.

(e) The Parties agree that the Purchased Assets and the Underlying Assets are of such a nature that they may decline rapidly in value, and may not have a ready or liquid market. Accordingly, Buyer shall not be required to sell more than one Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets on a particular Business Day, to the same purchaser or in the same manner. Buyer may determine whether, when and in what manner a Purchased Assets or the Underlying Assets shall be sold, it being agreed that both a good faith public and a good faith private sale shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable. Buyer shall not be required to give notice to Seller or any other Person prior to exercising any remedy in respect of an Event of Default. If no prior notice is given, Buyer shall give notice to Seller of the remedies exercised by Buyer promptly thereafter.

(f) Buyer shall have the right to direct the Servicer to remit all collections thereon to Buyer, and if any such payments are received by any Relevant Party or Servicer, Seller shall not and shall not permit such Relevant Party or Servicer to commingle the amounts received with other funds of such Relevant Party or Servicer and shall promptly pay them over to Buyer.

(g) Upon the occurrence of one or more Events of Default, Buyer shall apply any proceeds from the liquidation of the Purchased Assets and/or the Underlying Assets, as applicable, to the Repurchase Prices hereunder and all other Repurchase Obligations in the manner Buyer deems appropriate.

(h) Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (i) any amount by which the Repurchase Obligations due to Buyer exceed the aggregate of the net proceeds and credits referred to in the preceding clause (d), (ii) the amount of all actual out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default, (iii) any costs and losses payable under Section 12.03, and (iv) any other actual loss, damage, cost or expense resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(i) Buyer shall be entitled to seek an injunction, an order of specific performance or other equitable relief to compel Seller to fulfill any of its obligations as set forth in the Repurchase Documents, including this Article 10, if Seller fails or refuses to perform its obligations as set forth herein or therein.

(j) Seller hereby appoints Buyer as attorney-in-fact of Seller for purposes of carrying out the Repurchase Documents, including executing, endorsing and recording any instruments or documents and taking any other actions that Buyer deems necessary or advisable to accomplish such purposes, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(k) Buyer may, without prior notice to Seller, exercise any or all of its set-off rights including those set forth in Section 18.18. This Section 10.02(k) shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which any Party is at any time otherwise entitled.

(l) All rights and remedies of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents, including those set forth in Section 18.18, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that Buyer may have and may be exercised at any time when an Event of Default exists. Such rights and remedies may be enforced without prior judicial process or hearing. Seller agrees 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. Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process or otherwise arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Assets, or any other election of remedies.

ARTICLE 11

SECURITY INTEREST

Section 11.01 Grant.

(a) Buyer and Seller intend that all Transactions shall be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Assets and not loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Assets. However, to preserve and protect Buyer’s rights with respect to the Purchased Assets and under the Repurchase Documents in the event that any Governmental Authority recharacterizes the Transactions as other than sales, and as security for Seller’s performance of the Repurchase Obligations, Seller hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in

all of its rights, title and interest in, to and under the Purchased Assets (which for this purpose shall be deemed to include the items described in the proviso in the definition thereof), and the transfers of the Purchased Assets to Buyer shall be deemed to constitute and confirm such grant, to secure the payment and performance of the Repurchase Obligations (including the obligation of Seller to pay the Repurchase Price, or if the Transactions are recharacterized as loans, to repay such loans for the Repurchase Price).

(b) Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Purchased Assets (including without limitation, any security interest it may have in the Purchased Assets and any other collateral granted by Seller to Buyer pursuant to any other agreement) are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer hereunder.

Section 11.02 Effect of Grant.

If any circumstance described in Section 11.01 occurs, (a) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement as defined in the UCC, (b) Buyer shall have all of the rights and remedies provided to a secured party by Requirements of Law (including the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and the right to set off any mutual debt and claim) and under any other agreement between Buyer and Seller, (c) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Assets and the Underlying Assets against all of the Repurchase Obligations, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency, (d) the possession by Buyer or any of its agents, including Custodian, of the Underlying Asset Documents, the Purchased Assets, the Underlying Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents, securities or chattel paper shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party for purposes of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law, and (e) notifications to Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the secured party for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law. The security interest of Buyer granted herein shall be, and Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that it is, a first priority perfected security interest. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) each Purchased Asset secures the Repurchase Obligations of Seller with respect to all other Transactions and all other Purchased Assets, including any Purchased Assets that are junior in priority to the Purchased Asset in question, and (B) if an Event of Default exists, no Purchased Asset will be released from Buyer’s Lien or transferred to Seller until the Repurchase Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repurchase Obligations shall be full recourse to Seller.

Section 11.03 Seller to Remain Liable. Buyer and Seller agrees that the grant of a security interest under this Article 11 shall not constitute or result in the creation or assumption by Buyer of any Retained Interest or other obligation of Seller or any other Person in connection with any Purchased Asset, whether or not Buyer exercises any right with respect thereto. Seller shall remain liable under the Purchased Assets and Underlying Asset Documents to perform all of Seller’s or the related Underlying Entity’s duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if the Repurchase Documents had not been executed.

Section 11.04 Reserved.

Seller agrees, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Purchased Assets may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Purchased Assets or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and Seller, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Purchased Assets or any part thereof marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that Buyer or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Purchased Assets or any part thereof as an entirety or in such parcels as Buyer or such court may determine.

ARTICLE 12

INCREASED COSTS; CAPITAL ADEQUACY

Section 12.01 Market Disruption. If prior to any Pricing Period, Buyer determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Pricing Period, Buyer shall give prompt notice thereof to Seller, whereupon the Pricing Rate for such Pricing Period, and for all subsequent Pricing Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be the Alternative Rate.

Section 12.02 Illegality. If the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect or continue Transactions as contemplated by the Repurchase Documents, (a) any commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new Transactions shall be terminated, (b) the Pricing Rate shall be converted automatically to the Alternative Rate on the last day of the then current Pricing Period or within such earlier period as may be required by Requirements of Law, and (c) if required by such adoption or change, the Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred.

Section 12.03 Breakfunding. Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any loss, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) which Buyer may sustain or incur arising from (a) the failure by Seller to terminate any Transaction after Seller has given a notice of termination pursuant to Section 3.05, (b) any payment to Buyer on account of the outstanding Repurchase Price, including a payment made pursuant to Section 3.05 but excluding a payment made pursuant to Section 5.02, on any day other than a Remittance Date (based on the assumption that Buyer funded its commitment with respect to the Transaction in the London Interbank Eurodollar market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods that Buyer deems appropriate and practical), (c) any failure by Seller to sell Eligible Assets to Buyer after Seller has notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed in writing to purchase such Eligible Assets in accordance with this Agreement, or (d) any conversion of the Pricing Rate to the Alternative Rate because the LIBO Rate is not available for any reason on a day that is not the last day of the then current Pricing Period.

Section 12.04 Increased Costs. If the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer made after the date of this Agreement (a) shall subject Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Repurchase Documents, any Purchased Asset or any Transaction, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof (except for income taxes and any changes in the rate of tax on Buyer’s overall Net Income), (b) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer, or (c) shall impose on Buyer any other condition; and the result of any of the preceding clauses (a), (b) and (c) is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount that Buyer deems to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions, or to reduce any amount receivable under the Repurchase Documents in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as reasonably necessary to fully compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller of any change or event pursuant to which additional amounts are due or become due under this Section 12.04 as soon as reasonably practicable after it becomes aware of any such change or event. Upon receipt of such notice, Seller, in its discretion, shall (a) pay all additional amounts due under this Section 12.04 or (b) repurchase all of the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 3.05.

Section 12.05 Capital Adequacy. If Buyer determines that the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation Controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made after the date of this Agreement has or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material, then, in any such case, Seller shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as reasonably necessary to fully compensate Buyer for such reduction. Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller of any change or event pursuant to which additional amounts are due or become due under this Section 12.05 as soon as reasonably practicable after it becomes aware of any such change or event. Upon receipt of such notice, Seller, in its discretion, shall (a) pay all additional amounts due under this Section 12.05 or (b) repurchase all of the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 3.05.

Section 12.06 Withholding Taxes.

(a) All payments made by Seller to Buyer or any other Indemnified Person under the Repurchase Documents and by Obligors with respect to the Underlying Assets shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or

future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto imposed by any Governmental Authority therewith or thereon, excluding income taxes, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes or any other tax imposed on Net Income by the United States, a state or a foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which Buyer or such other Indemnified Person is organized or of its applicable lending office, or a state or foreign jurisdiction with respect to which Buyer or such other Indemnified Person has a present or former connection, or any political subdivision thereof (collectively, “Taxes”), all of which shall be paid by Seller for their own account not later than the date when due. If any taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to Buyer and/or any other Indemnified Person, then Seller shall (a) make such deduction or withholding, (b) pay the amount so deducted or withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority not later than the date when due; and (c) pay to Buyer or other Indemnified Person such additional amounts (the “Additional Amount”) as may be necessary so that every net payment made under this Agreement after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including any Taxes on such increase and any penalties) is not less than the amount that would have been paid absent such deduction or withholding. The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts, however, will not apply with respect to (i) Net Income or franchise taxes imposed on Buyer and/or any other Indemnified Person, with respect to payments required to be made by Seller under the Repurchase Documents, by a taxing jurisdiction in which Buyer and/or any other Indemnified Person is organized, conducts business or is paying taxes (as the case may be), or (ii) any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed on “withholdable payments” made after December 31, 2012, if the Buyer is a “foreign financial institution” that fails to comply with the requirements of section 1471(b) of the Code or a “non-financial foreign entity” that fails to comply with section 1472(b) of the Code, each as in effect on the date hereof, or Treasury regulations or administrative guidance promulgated thereunder.

(b) In addition, Seller agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including, without limitation, mortgage recording taxes, transfer taxes and similar fees) imposed by the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (“Other Taxes”).

(c) Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer for the full amount of Taxes (including Additional Amounts with respect thereto) and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 12.06(c), and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses arising thereon or with respect thereto) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, provided that Buyer shall have provided Seller with evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Seller, of payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be.

(d) If a Person acquires any of the rights and obligations of Buyer as an Eligible Assignee under this Agreement, and such Person is not organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (a “Non-U.S. Person”), such Non-U.S. Person shall deliver to Seller on or before the date on which such Person becomes a party to this Agreement, two duly completed and executed copies of, as applicable, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor forms thereto designated as such by the IRS. If the Non-U.S.

Person is eligible for and wishes to claim exemption from or reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax through benefit of a treaty, such Person shall deliver a Form W-8ECI. If the Non-U.S. Person is eligible for and wishes to claim exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” such Person shall deliver both the Form W-8BEN and a statement certifying that such Person is not a bank, a “10 percent shareholder” or a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3) of the Code. If any previously delivered form or statement becomes inaccurate with respect to the Non-U.S. Person that delivered it, the Non-U.S. Person shall promptly notify Seller of this fact.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival or any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 12.06(e) shall survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the repayment in full of the Repurchase Obligations. Nothing contained in this Section 12.06(e) shall require Buyer to make available any of their tax returns or other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(f) Promptly after Seller pays any taxes referred to in this Section 12.06, Seller will send Buyer appropriate evidence of such payment.

(g) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets. All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by law.

Section 12.07 Payment and Survival of Obligations. Buyer may at any time send Seller a notice showing the calculation of any amounts payable pursuant to this Article 12, and Seller shall pay such amounts to Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after Seller receives such notice. The obligations of Seller under this Article 12 shall apply to Eligible Assignees and Participants and survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the indefeasible payment in full of the Repurchase Obligations.

misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Person in connection with any Purchased Asset or Underlying Asset for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Purchased Asset or Underlying Asset, Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold such Indemnified Person harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the account debtor or Obligor arising out of a breach by Seller of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such account debtor or Obligor from Seller. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 13.01 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Seller, an Indemnified Person or any other Person or any Indemnified Person is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any Transaction is entered into.

(b) If for any reason the indemnification provided in this Section 13.01 is unavailable to the Indemnified Person or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless, even though such Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification under the express terms thereof, then Seller shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Person on the one hand and Seller on the other hand, the relative fault of such Indemnified Person, and any other relevant equitable considerations.

(c) An Indemnified Person may at any time send Seller a notice showing the calculation of Indemnified Amounts, and Seller shall pay such Indemnified Amounts to such Indemnified Person within fifteen (15) Business Days after Seller receive such notices. The obligations of Seller under this Section 13.01 shall apply to Eligible Assignees and Participants and survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the repayment in full of the Repurchase Obligations.

Section 13.02 Expenses. Seller shall promptly on demand pay to or as directed by Buyer all third-party out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including legal, accounting and advisory fees and expenses, subject to any cap thereon as may be set forth in the Fee Letter) incurred by Buyer in connection with (a) the development, evaluation, preparation, negotiation, execution, consummation, delivery and administration of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, or extension, renewal or waiver of, the Repurchase Documents and the Transactions, (b) any Underlying Asset or Purchased Asset, including due diligence, inspection, testing, review, recording, registration, travel custody, care, insurance or preservation, (c) the enforcement of the Repurchase Documents or the payment or performance by Seller of any Repurchase Obligations, and (d) any actual or attempted sale, exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement relating to the Purchased Assets.

INTENT

Section 14.01 Intent.

(a) The Parties intend (i) for each Transaction to qualify for the safe harbor treatment provided by the Bankruptcy Code and for Buyer to be entitled to all of the rights, benefits and protections afforded to Persons under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code, and that payments under this Agreement are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments,” as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) for the grant of a security interest set forth in Article 11 to also be a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) that Buyer (for so long as Buyer is a “financial institution,” “financial participant” or other entity listed in Section 555, 561, 362(b)(6), 362(b)(7) or 362(b)(27) of the Bankruptcy Code) shall be entitled to the “safe harbor” benefits and protections afforded under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a “securities contract” and a “master netting agreement” including (x) the rights, set forth in Article 10 and in Section 555 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code, to liquidate the Purchased Assets and terminate this Agreement, (y) the right to offset or net out as set forth in Article 10 and Section 18.18 and in Sections 362(b)(6) or 362(b)(27) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (z) the non-avoidability of transfers made in connection with this Agreement as set forth in Sections 546(e), 546(f) and 546(j) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that Buyer’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Articles 10 and 11 and as otherwise provided in the Repurchase Documents is a contractual right to liquidate the Purchased Assets and terminate or accelerate such Transactions as described in Section 555 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c) The Parties acknowledge and agree that if a Party 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) The Parties acknowledge and agree 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 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).

ARTICLE 15

DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 do not protect the other Party with respect to any Transaction;

(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 Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 will not provide protection to the other Party with respect to any Transaction;

(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 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; and

(d) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is an “insured depository institution” as that term is defined in Section 1813(c)(2) of Title 12 of the United States Code, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Savings Association Insurance Fund or the Bank Insurance Fund, as applicable.

(c) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, SELLER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION WHATSOEVER WHETHER OR NOT INVOLVING ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON, ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES, WHETHER SUCH WAIVED DAMAGES ARE BASED ON STATUTE, CONTRACT, TORT, COMMON LAW OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES WAS KNOWN AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OF ACTION.

(d) SELLER CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF BUYER OR AN INDEMNIFIED PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT BUYER OR AN INDEMNIFIED PERSON WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE ANY OF THE WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION 18.03 IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION OR OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES. THE SCOPE OF SUCH WAIVERS IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR LEGAL THEORY.

(e) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION 18.03 ARE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT SUCH PARTY HAS ALREADY RELIED ON SUCH WAIVERS IN ENTERING INTO THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS, AND THAT SUCH PARTY WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON SUCH WAIVERS IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS UNDER THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED SUCH WAIVERS WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL AND OTHER RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

(f) THE WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION 18.03 ARE IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT THEY MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND SHALL APPLY TO ANY AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR

MODIFICATIONS TO ANY OF THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

(g) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 18.03 SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS AND THE INDEFEASIBLE PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE REPURCHASE OBLIGATIONS.

Section 18.04 Integration. The Repurchase Documents supersede and integrate all previous negotiations, contracts, agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Parties relating to a sale and repurchase of Purchased Assets and the other matters addressed by the Repurchase Documents, and contain the entire final agreement of the Parties relating to the subject matter thereof.

Section 18.05 Single Agreement. Seller agrees that (a) each Transaction is in consideration of and in reliance on the fact that all Transactions constitute a single business and contractual relationship, and that each Transaction has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions, (b) a default by it in the payment or performance of any its obligations under a Transaction shall constitute a default by it with respect to all Transactions, (c) Buyer may set off claims and apply properties and assets held by or on behalf of Buyer with respect to any Transaction against the Repurchase Obligations owing to Buyer with respect to other Transactions, and (d) payments, deliveries and other transfers made by or on behalf of Seller with respect to any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers with respect to all Transactions, and the obligations of Seller to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

Section 18.06 Use of Employee Plan Assets. Seller covenants that it will not use “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA in any Transaction.

Section 18.07 Survival and Benefit of Seller’s Agreements. The Repurchase Documents and all Transactions shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns. All of Seller’s and Underlying Entities’ representations, warranties, agreements and indemnities in the Repurchase Documents shall survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the payment in full of the Repurchase Obligations, and shall apply to and benefit all Indemnified Persons, Buyer and its successors and assigns, Eligible Assignees and Participants. No other Person shall be entitled to any benefit, right, power, remedy or claim under the Repurchase Documents.

Section 18.08 Assignments and Participations.

(a) None of Seller nor any Underlying Entity shall sell, assign or transfer any of its rights or the Repurchase Obligations or delegate its duties under this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document without the prior written consent of Buyer, and any attempt to do so without such consent shall be null and void.

(b) Buyer may at any time, without the consent of or notice to Seller or any Guarantor, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or Seller, any Guarantor or any Affiliate of Seller or any Guarantor) (a “Participant”) in all or any portion of Buyer’s rights and/or obligations under the Repurchase Documents; provided, that (i) Buyer’s obligations under the Repurchase Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) Buyer shall remain solely responsible to Seller for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under the Repurchase Documents. No Participant shall have any right to approve any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to any Repurchase Document, except to the extent that the Repurchase Price or Price Differential of any Purchased Asset would be reduced or the Repurchase Date of any Purchased Asset would be postponed. Each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article 12 to the same extent as if it had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 18.08(c), but shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment thereunder than Buyer would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Seller’s prior written consent. To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 10.02(j) and 18.17 to the same extent as if it had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 18.08(c).

(c) Buyer may at any time, without consent of Seller or Guarantors but upon notice to Seller, sell and assign to any Eligible Assignee all or any portion of all of the rights and obligations or duties of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents. Each such assignment shall be made pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit K (an “Assignment and Acceptance”). From and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) such Eligible Assignee shall be a Party and, to the extent provided therein, have the rights and obligations of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents with respect to the percentage and amount of the Repurchase Price allocated to it, (ii) Buyer shall, to the extent provided therein, be released from such obligations (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of Buyer’s rights and obligations under the Repurchase Documents, Buyer shall cease to be a Party), (iii) the obligations of Buyer shall be deemed to be so reduced, and (iv) Buyer will give prompt written notice thereof (including identification of the Eligible Assignee and the amount of Repurchase Price allocated to it) to each Party (but Buyer shall not have any liability for any failure to timely provide such notice). Any sale or assignment by Buyer of rights or obligations under the Repurchase Documents that does not comply with this Section 18.08(c) shall be treated for purposes of the Repurchase Documents as a sale by such Buyer of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 18.08(b).

(d) Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in connection with any such sale and assignment of participations or assignments and shall enter into such restatements of, and amendments, supplements and other modifications to, the Repurchase Documents to give effect to any such sale or assignment; provided, that none of the foregoing shall change any economic or other material term of the Repurchase Documents in a manner adverse to Seller without the consent of Seller.

(e) Buyer shall have the right to partially or completely syndicate and or all of its rights under the Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents to any Eligible Assignee.

Section 18.09 Ownership and Hypothecation of Purchased Assets. Title to all Purchased Assets shall pass to and vest in Buyer on the applicable Purchase Dates; provided that Buyer in its discretion may permit bare legal title in the Purchased Assets to remain with the Seller solely for the purpose of facilitating servicing. Subject to the terms of the Repurchase Documents, Buyer or its designee shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Assets and be entitled to exercise all rights, privileges and options relating to the Purchased Assets as the owner thereof, including rights of subscription, conversion, exchange, substitution, voting, consent and approval, and to direct any servicer or trustee. Buyer or its designee may engage in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Assets or otherwise sell, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecate, or rehypothecate the Purchased Assets, all on terms that Buyer may determine; provided, that no such transaction shall affect the obligations of Buyer to transfer the Purchased Assets to Seller on the applicable Repurchase Dates free and clear of any pledge, Lien, security interest, encumbrance, charge or other adverse claim. In the event Buyer engages in a repurchase transaction with any of the Purchased Assets or otherwise pledges or hypothecates any of the Purchased Assets, Buyer shall have the right to assign to Buyer’s counterparty any of the applicable representations or warranties herein and the remedies for breach thereof, as they relate to the Purchased Assets that are subject to such repurchase transaction.

Section 18.10 Confidentiality. All information regarding the terms set forth in any of the Repurchase Documents or the Transactions shall be kept confidential and shall not be disclosed by either Party to any Person except (a) to the Affiliates of such Party or its or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives who are informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep it confidential, (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or required by Requirements of Law, (c) to the extent required to be included in the financial statements of either Party or an Affiliate thereof, (d) to the extent required to exercise any rights or remedies under the Repurchase Documents, Purchased Assets or related Mortgaged Properties, (e) to the extent required to consummate and administer a Transaction, (f) to any actual or prospective third-party service provider in respect of the Purchased Assets, any investor in any Guarantor, any Participant or any Eligible Assignee which, in each case, agrees to comply with this Section 18.10; provided, that no such disclosure made with respect to any Repurchase Document shall include a copy of such Repurchase Document to the extent that a summary would suffice, but if it is necessary for a copy of any Repurchase Document to be disclosed, all pricing and other economic terms set forth therein shall be redacted before disclosure.

Section 18.11 No Implied Waivers. No failure on the part of Buyer to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right or remedy under the Repurchase Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy thereunder preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies in the Repurchase Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. Application of the Default Rate after an Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or Buyer’s rights and remedies with respect thereto, or a consent to any extension of time for the payment or performance of any obligation with respect

to which the Default Rate is applied. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Repurchase Documents, no amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Repurchase Documents shall be effective without the signed agreement of Seller and Buyer; provided that any amendment, waiver or modification to this Agreement shall require the executed acknowledgement thereto by each Underlying Entity. Any waiver or consent under the Repurchase Documents shall be effective only if it is in writing and only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 18.12 Notices and Other Communications. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices, consents, approvals, requests and other communications required or permitted to be given to a Party hereunder shall be in writing and sent prepaid by hand delivery, by certified or registered mail, by expedited commercial or postal delivery service, or by facsimile or email if also sent by one of the foregoing, to the address for such Party specified in Schedule 2 or such other address as such Party shall specify from time to time in a notice to the other Party. Any of the foregoing communications shall be effective when delivered or upon the first attempted delivery on a Business Day. A Party receiving a notice that does not comply with the technical requirements of this Section 18.12 may elect to waive any deficiencies and treat the notice as having been properly given.

Section 18.13 Counterparts; Electronic Transmission. This Agreement and any other Repurchase Document may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The parties agree that this Agreement, any documents to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, any other Repurchase Document and any notices hereunder may be transmitted between them by email and/or facsimile. The parties intend that faxed signatures and electronically imaged signatures such as .pdf files shall constitute original signatures and are binding on all parties.

Section 18.14 No Personal Liability. No administrator, incorporator, Affiliate, owner, member, partner, stockholder, officer, director, employee, agent or attorney of Buyer, any Indemnified Person, Seller or any Guarantor, as such, shall be subject to any recourse or personal liability under or with respect to any obligation of Buyer, Seller or any Guarantor under the Repurchase Documents, whether by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed that the obligations of Buyer, Seller or any Guarantor under the Repurchase Documents are solely their respective corporate, limited liability company or partnership obligations, as applicable, and that any such recourse or personal liability is hereby expressly waived. This Section 18.14 shall survive the termination of the Repurchase Documents and the repayment in full of the Repurchase Obligations.

Section 18.15 Protection of Buyer’s Interests in the Purchased Assets; Further Assurances.

(a) Seller shall cause the Repurchase Documents and/or all financing statements and continuation statements and any other necessary documents covering the right, title and interest of Buyer to the Purchased Assets to be promptly recorded, registered and filed, and at all times to be kept recorded, registered and filed, all in such manner and in such places as

may be required by law fully to preserve and protect such right, title and interest. Seller shall deliver to Buyer file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document recorded, registered or filed as provided above, as soon as available following such recording, registration or filing. Seller shall execute any and all documents reasonably required to fulfill the intent of this Section 18.15.

(b) Seller will promptly at its expense execute and deliver such instruments and documents and take such other actions as Buyer may reasonably request from time to time in order to perfect, protect, evidence, exercise and enforce Buyer’s rights and remedies under and with respect to the Repurchase Documents, the Transactions and the Purchased Assets.

(c) If Seller fails to perform any of its Repurchase Obligations, Buyer may (but shall not be required to) perform or cause to be performed such Repurchase Obligation, and the costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller authorizes Buyer, at the option of Buyer and the expense of Seller, at any time and from time to time, to take all actions and pay all amounts that Buyer deems necessary or appropriate to protect, enforce, preserve, insure, service, administer, manage, perform, maintain, safeguard, collect or realize on the Purchased Assets and Buyer’s Liens and interests therein or thereon and to give effect to the intent of the Repurchase Documents. No Default or Event of Default shall be cured by the payment or performance of any Repurchase Obligation by Buyer on behalf of Seller. Buyer may make any such payment in accordance with any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax Lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by Seller in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller will no earlier than six (6) or later than three (3) months before the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the date of filing of each UCC financing statement filed in connection with to any Repurchase Document or any Transaction, (i) deliver and file or cause to be filed an appropriate continuation statement with respect to such financing statement; provided that Buyer may elect to file such continuation statement, and (ii) deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, confirming and updating the opinion delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or 6.02(a) with respect to perfection and otherwise to the effect that the security interests hereunder continue to be enforceable and perfected security interests, subject to no other Liens of record except as provided herein or otherwise permitted hereunder, which opinion may contain usual and customary assumptions, limitations and exceptions.

(e) Except as provided in the Repurchase Documents, the sole duty of Buyer, Custodian or any other designee or agent of Buyer with respect to the Purchased Assets shall be to use reasonable care in the custody, use, operation and preservation of the Purchased Assets in its possession or control. Buyer shall incur no liability to Seller or any other Person for any act of Governmental Authority, act of God or other destruction in whole or in part or negligence or wrongful act of custodians or agents selected by Buyer with reasonable care, or Buyer’s failure to provide adequate protection or insurance for the Purchased Assets. Buyer shall have no obligation to take any action to preserve any rights of Seller in any Purchased

Asset against prior parties, and Seller hereby agrees to take such action. Buyer shall have no obligation to realize upon any Purchased Asset except through proper application of any distributions with respect to the Purchased Assets made directly to Buyer or its agent(s). So long as Buyer and Custodian shall act in good faith in their handling of the Purchased Assets, Seller waives or is deemed to have waived the defense of impairment of the Purchased Assets by Buyer and Custodian.

Section 18.16 Default Rate. To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, Seller shall pay interest at the Default Rate on the amount of all Repurchase Obligations not paid when due under the Repurchase Documents until such Repurchase Obligations are paid or satisfied in full.

Section 18.17 Termination. This Agreement shall remain in effect until the Termination Date. However, no such termination shall affect Seller’s outstanding obligations to Buyer at the time of such termination, nor shall it affect the survivability of any provisions in this Agreement that, by their express terms, are intended to survive the termination of this Agreement or any of the other Repurchase Documents and the repayment in full of the Repurchase Obligations.

Section 18.18 Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under the Repurchase Documents, Requirements of Law or otherwise, Seller, on behalf of itself and each other Relevant Party, hereby grants to Buyer and each Indemnified Person, to secure repayment of the Repurchase Obligations, a right of set-off upon any and all of the following: (i) monies, securities, collateral or other property of Seller and each other Relevant Party and any proceeds from the foregoing, now or hereafter held or received by Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person, for the account of Seller or such Relevant Party, whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection or otherwise, (ii) any and all deposits (general, specified, special, time, demand, provisional or final) and credits, claims or Indebtedness of Seller or any other Relevant Party at any time existing, (iii) any obligation owed by Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer to Seller or any other Relevant Party and (iv) any Repurchase Obligations or Indebtedness owed by Seller or any other Relevant Party and any Indebtedness owed by Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer to Seller or any other Relevant Party, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, whether or not arising under the Repurchase Documents and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the amount or obligation and in each case at any time held or owing by Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person to or for the credit of Seller or any other Relevant Party, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency. Buyer, each Affiliate of Buyer and each Indemnified Person are each hereby authorized, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller or any other Relevant Party to Buyer or any Indemnified Person under the Repurchase Documents, the Repurchase Obligations or otherwise or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, without notice to Seller or any other Relevant Party, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller and each other Relevant Party to the extent permitted by any Requirements of Law, to set-off, appropriate, apply and enforce such right of set-off against any and all items hereinabove referred to against any amounts owing to Buyer or any Indemnified Person by Seller or any other Relevant Party under the Repurchase Documents and the Repurchase Obligations, irrespective of whether Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer or any Indemnified Person shall have made any demand under the Repurchase Documents and regardless of any other collateral securing such amounts, and in all cases without waiver or

prejudice of Buyer’s rights to recover any deficiency. Seller and all other Relevant Parties shall be deemed directly indebted to Buyer and the other Indemnified Persons in the full amount of all amounts owing to Buyer and the other Indemnified Parties by Seller and all other Relevant Parties under the Repurchase Documents and the Repurchase Obligations, and Buyer and the other Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to exercise the rights of set-off provided for above. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BUYER OR OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSONS TO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASED ASSETS OR OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSONS UNDER THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING THE FOREGOING RIGHT OF SET-OFF, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED BY SELLER AND EACH OTHER RELEVANT PARTY.

Buyer or any Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the affected Seller or Relevant Party after any such set-off and application made by Buyer or such Indemnified Person; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. If an amount or obligation is unascertained, Buyer may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant Person accounting to the other Person when the amount or obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this Section 18.18 shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Section 18.18 shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which any Person is at any time otherwise entitled.

Section 18.19 Power of Attorney. Each of Seller and each Underlying Entity hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Purchased Assets and other collateral pledged to Buyer hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate. Each of Seller and each Underlying Entity hereby appoints Buyer as its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statement or statements in its name and to perform all other acts which Buyer 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 Purchased Assets, and sign assignments on behalf of it as its agent and attorney-in-fact. This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Buyer’s consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 18.19. Seller and each Underlying Entity shall execute and deliver to Buyer and power of attorney in the form set forth in Exhibit I attached hereto (“Power of Attorney”).

Section 18.20 Seller’s Waiver of Setoff. Seller hereby waives any right of setoff it may have or to which it may be or become entitled under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise against Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer, any Indemnified Person or their respective assets or properties.

Section 18.21 Periodic Due Diligence Review. Buyer may perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Assets, Underlying Assets, and the Relevant Parties, including ordering new third party reports, for purposes of, among other things, verifying compliance with the representations, warranties, ordering BPOs at any time during the term of

this Agreement, covenants, agreements, duties, obligations and specifications made under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise. Upon reasonable prior notice to Seller, unless a Default or Event of Default exists, in which case no notice is required, Buyer or its representatives may during normal business hours inspect any properties and examine, inspect and make copies of the books and records of Seller any other Relevant Party, the Underlying Asset Documents and the Servicing Files. Seller shall make available to Buyer one or more knowledgeable financial or accounting officers and representatives of the independent certified public accountants of Seller for the purpose of answering questions of Buyer concerning any of the foregoing. Seller shall cause Servicer to cooperate with Buyer by permitting Buyer to conduct due diligence reviews of the related Servicing Files. Buyer may purchase Purchased Assets from Seller based solely on the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Preliminary Information and the representations, warranties, duties, obligations and covenants contained herein, and Buyer may at any time conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Underlying Assets, including ordering new credit reports and new appraisals on the Mortgaged Properties and otherwise regenerating the information used to originate and underwrite such Underlying Assets. Buyer may underwrite such Underlying Assets itself or engage a mutually acceptable third-party underwriter to do so. Seller shall be responsible for all due diligence costs and expenses incurred by Buyer.

Section 18.22 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all obligations, duties, covenants, agreements, notices or actions or inactions of the parties under the Repurchase Documents.

Section 18.23 Joint and Several Repurchase Obligations.

(a) At all times when there is more than one Seller under this Agreement, Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) Seller shall be jointly and severally liable to Buyer to the maximum extent permitted by Requirements of Law for all Repurchase Obligations, (ii) the liability of Seller (A) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect (or be reinstated) until all Repurchase Obligations shall have been paid in full and the expiration of any applicable preference or similar period pursuant to any Insolvency Law, or at law or in equity, without any claim having been made before the expiration of such period asserting an interest in all or any part of any payment(s) received by Buyer, and (B) until such payment has been made, shall not be discharged, affected, modified or impaired on the occurrence from time to time of any event, including any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of Seller, (1) the waiver, compromise, settlement, release, termination or amendment (including any extension or postponement of the time for payment or performance or renewal or refinancing) of any of the Repurchase Obligations, (2) the failure to give notice to Seller of the occurrence of an Event of Default, (3) the release, substitution or exchange by Buyer of any Purchased Asset (whether with or without consideration) or the acceptance by Buyer of any additional collateral or the availability or claimed availability of any other collateral or source of repayment or any nonperfection or other impairment of collateral, (4) the release of any Person primarily or secondarily liable for all or any part of the Repurchase Obligations, whether by Buyer or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding affecting Seller or any other Person who, or any of whose property, shall at the time in question be obligated in respect of the Repurchase Obligations or any part thereof, or (5) to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any other event, occurrence, action or circumstance that would, in the

100

(b) To the extent that Seller (the “paying Seller”) pays more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, the paying Seller shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Seller that has not paid its proportionate share; provided, that the provisions of this Section 18.23 shall not limit the duties, covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of Seller to Buyer, and, notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the paying Seller hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of the paying Seller by Buyer, the paying Seller shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Buyer against any other Seller or any collateral security or guarantee or right of setoff held by Buyer, nor shall the paying Seller seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any other Seller in respect of payments made by the paying Seller hereunder, until all Repurchase Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to the paying Seller on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all such amounts shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the paying Seller in trust for Buyer, segregated from other funds of the paying Seller, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the paying Seller, be turned over to Buyer in the exact form received by the paying Seller (duly indorsed by the paying Seller to Buyer, if required), to be applied against the Repurchase Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as Buyer may determine.
