In the interpretation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, no rule of construction shall apply to disadvantage one party on the ground that such party originated, proposed, presented or was involved in the preparation of any particular provision of this Agreement or of any other Transaction, or of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document itself. Seller and Buyer may be party to other mutual agreements and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to restrict or limit any right or remedy under any such other agreement, and nothing in any such other agreement shall be construed to restrict or limit any right or remedy under this Agreement, except to the extent, if any, specifically provided herein or therein. Except where otherwise expressly stated, the Buyer may (i) give or withhold, or give conditionally, approvals and consents, (ii) be satisfied or unsatisfied, and (iii) form opinions and make determinations, in each case in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion. A reference to “good faith” means good faith as defined in §1-201(20) of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York. Any requirement of good faith, reasonableness, discretion or judgment by Buyer shall not be construed to require Buyer to request or await receipt of information or documentation not immediately available from or with respect to Seller or any other Person or the Purchased Mortgage Loans themselves. Buyer may waive, relax or strictly enforce any applicable deadline at any time and to such extent as Buyer shall elect, and no waiver or relaxation of any deadline shall be applicable to any other instance or application of that deadline or any other deadline, and no such waiver or relaxation, no matter how often made or given, shall be evidence of or establish a custom or course of dealing different from the express provisions and requirements of this Agreement.

3. Initiation; Confirmations; Termination

(a) Initiation. Any agreement to enter into a Transaction shall be made in writing at the initiation of Seller through Mortgage Finance Online before the Termination Date. If Seller desires to enter into a Transaction, Seller shall deliver to Buyer no earlier than three (3) Business Days before, and no later than 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on, the proposed Purchase Date, a request for Buyer to purchase an amount of Eligible Mortgage Loans on such Purchase Date. All such purchases shall be on a servicing released basis and shall include the Servicing Rights with respect to such Eligible Mortgage Loan. Such request shall state the Purchase Price and include a completed Confirmation with an attached Asset Schedule listing the Mortgage Loans that Seller proposes to sell to Buyer, for Buyer to issue to confirm Buyer’s acceptance of the proposed Transaction.

(b) Purchase by Buyer. Subject to the terms of the Side Letter and satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 3 and in Section 7, on the requested Purchase Date for each Transaction, Buyer shall transfer to Seller or its designee — for a newly Originated Eligible Mortgage Loan, by transferring funds to the designated Settlement Agent — an amount equal to the Purchase Price for purchase of each Eligible Mortgage Loan that is the subject of such Transaction on that Purchase Date, less any amounts to be netted against such Purchase Price in accordance with the Transaction terms. The transfer of funds to the Settlement Agent to be used

to fund the Mortgage Loan, and if applicable, the netting of amounts for value, on the Purchase Date for any Transaction will constitute full payment by Buyer of the Purchase Price for such Mortgage Loan. Within five (5) Business Days following the Purchase Date, Seller shall (i) take such steps as are necessary and appropriate to effect the transfer to Buyer on the MERS® System of the Purchased Mortgage Loans so purchased, and to cause Buyer to be designated as “Interim Funder” on the MERS® System with respect to each such Purchased Mortgage Loan and (ii) in the case of a Wet Funding, deliver all remaining items of the related Asset File to Custodian. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Buyer shall have no obligation to enter into any Transaction on or after the Termination Date or to enter into any Transaction under the Uncommitted Facility on or after the Uncommitted Facility Termination Date. Seller may (i) initially request less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Purchase Price for any one or more Purchased Mortgage Loans, (ii) repay part of the Purchase Price therefor to Buyer or (iii) both, and may subsequently request that Buyer fund (or re-fund) the balance of the Purchase Price to Seller, and in either case so long as both (x) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (y) Buyer would be committed to fund (or re-fund) such balance if it were a new Transaction, Buyer will fund (or re-fund) so much of such balance as Seller shall request.

(c) Confirmations. The Confirmation for each Transaction shall (i) include the Asset Schedule with respect to the Mortgage Loans subject to such Transaction, (ii) identify Buyer and Seller and (iii) specify (A) the Purchase Date, (B) the Purchase Price, (C) the Repurchase Date, (D) the Pricing Rates applicable to the Transaction and (E) any additional terms or conditions of the Transaction mutually agreeable to Buyer and Seller. In the event of any conflict between the terms of a Confirmation that has been affirmatively accepted by Buyer and this Agreement, such accepted Confirmation shall prevail.

(d) Failed Fundings. Seller agrees to report to Buyer by facsimile transmission or electronic mail as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after each Purchase Date, any Mortgage Loans that failed to be funded to the related Mortgagor, otherwise failed to close for any reason or failed to be purchased hereunder. Seller further agrees to (i) return, or cause the Settlement Agent to return, to the Funding Account, for refunding to Buyer, the portion of the Purchase Price allocable to such Mortgage Loans as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after the related Purchase Date, and (ii) indemnify Buyer for any out-of-pocket loss, cost or expense reasonably incurred by Buyer as a result of the failure of such Mortgage Loans to close or to be delivered to Buyer.

(e) Accrual and Payment of Price Differential. The Price Differential for each Transaction shall accrue during the period commencing on (and including) the day when the Purchase Price is transferred into the Funding Account (or otherwise paid to Seller) for such Transaction and ending on (but excluding) the day when the Repurchase Price is paid to Buyer. Accrued Price Differential for each Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be due and payable (i) on each Remittance Date and (ii) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on demand.

(f) Repurchase Required. Seller shall repurchase from Buyer Purchased Mortgage Loans conveyed to Buyer on or before each related scheduled Repurchase Date and may electively sooner repurchase Purchased Mortgage Loans. Each obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan.

Seller is obligated to obtain the Purchased Mortgage Loans from Custodian at Seller’s expense on the related Repurchase Date.

(g) Termination of Transaction by Repurchase; Transfer of Repurchased Mortgage Loans. On the Repurchase Date, termination of the Transaction will be effected by resale by Buyer to Seller or its designee of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a servicing released basis against Seller’s submission to Buyer of a Completed Repurchase Advice, all in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer. After receipt of the payment of the Repurchase Price from Seller, Buyer shall transfer such Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller or its designee and Custodian shall deliver to Seller or its designee all such Mortgage Loan Documents that were previously delivered to Custodian and take such steps as are necessary and appropriate to effect the transfer of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to Seller or its designee on the MERS® System. All such transfers to Seller or its designee are and shall be without recourse and without any of the transfer warranties of UCC §3-417 or other warranty, express or implied.

(h) No Obligation to Transfer Purchased Mortgage Loans after Buyer’s Section 12(d) Election. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Buyer shall not be obligated to transfer any Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller or any designee of Seller if, pursuant to Section 12(d) after an Event of Default, Buyer has elected either to sell them or to give Seller credit for them.

(i) Completed Repurchase Advice. If Buyer receives the Completed Repurchase Advice with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan at or before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on any Business Day, then the Repurchase Date for that Purchased Mortgage Loan will be that same day. If Buyer receives the Completed Repurchase Advice with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan after 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on any Business Day, then the Repurchase Date for that Purchased Mortgage Loan will be the next Business Day. In connection with any repurchase pursuant to a Completed Repurchase Advice, Buyer will debit the Funding Account and the Operating Account, if applicable, for the amount of the Repurchase Price (less any amount of Price Differential to be paid on the next Remittance Date). Without limiting Seller’s obligations hereunder, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, except for repurchases of individual Mortgage Loans or pools of Mortgage Loans being sold to Approved Takeout Investors, Seller shall not be permitted to repurchase less than all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans without the prior written consent of Buyer, which may be granted or withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion.

(j) Reliance. With respect to any Transaction, Buyer may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to Seller in acting upon, any request or other communication that Buyer reasonably believes to have been given or made by a Person authorized to enter into a Transaction on Seller’s behalf.

(k) Defective Mortgage Loans.

(i) If, after Buyer purchases a Mortgage Loan, Buyer determines or receives notice (whether from Seller or otherwise) that a Purchased Mortgage Loan is (or has become) a Defective Mortgage Loan, Buyer shall promptly notify Seller, and Seller shall repurchase such

Purchased Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price on the Early Repurchase Date (as such term is defined below).

(ii) If Seller becomes obligated to repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3(k)(i), Buyer shall promptly give Seller notice of such repurchase obligation and a calculation of the Repurchase Price therefor. On the same day Seller receives such notice if given at or before 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) or on the next Business Day if such notice is given after 10:00 a.m. (such day, the “Early Repurchase Date”), Seller shall repurchase the Defective Mortgage Loan by paying Buyer the Repurchase Price therefor, and shall submit a Completed Repurchase Advice. Buyer is authorized to charge any of Seller’s Accounts for such amount unless the Parties have agreed in writing to a different method of payment and Seller has paid such amount by such agreed method. If Seller’s Accounts do not contain sufficient funds to pay in full the amount due Buyer under this Section 3(k)(ii), or if the amount due is not paid by any applicable alternative method of payment previously agreed to by the Parties, Seller shall promptly deposit funds in the Operating Account sufficient to pay such amount due Buyer and notify Buyer of such deposit. After receipt of the payment of the Repurchase Price therefor from Seller, Buyer shall transfer such Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller or its designee and deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Seller or such designee all documents for the Mortgage Loan previously delivered to Buyer and take such steps as are necessary and appropriate to effect the transfer of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to Seller on the MERS® System.

4. Margin Maintenance

(a) Margin Deficit. If at any time the sum of the Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans then subject to Transactions is less than the sum of their Repurchase Prices, a margin deficit (“Margin Deficit”) will exist and Buyer, by notice to Seller (a “Margin Call”), may require Seller to transfer to Buyer (x) cash, or (y) if Buyer is willing to accept them in lieu of cash, additional Eligible Mortgage Loans reasonably acceptable to Buyer (“Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans”), or (z) a combination, to the extent (if any) acceptable to Buyer, of cash and Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans, so that immediately after such transfer(s) the sum of (i) such cash, if any, so transferred to Buyer plus (ii) the aggregate of the Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans for all Transactions outstanding at that time, including any such Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans, will be at least equal to the sum of the Repurchase Prices of all Purchased Mortgage Loans then subject to outstanding Transactions.

(b) Margin Maintenance. If the notice to be given by Buyer to Seller under Section 4(a) is given at or before 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on a Business Day, Seller shall transfer cash and/or, if acceptable to Buyer, Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans to Buyer before 6:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the date of such notice, and if such notice is given after 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time), Seller shall transfer such cash and/or Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day following the date of such notice. All cash required to be delivered to Buyer pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be deposited by Seller into the Operating Account and, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be held by Buyer in the Operating Account as security for the Obligations or, at Buyer’s option, applied by Buyer to reduce pro rata the Repurchase Prices of all Purchased Mortgage Loans that are then subject to outstanding Transactions. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any such cash may be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loans as

Buyer shall select, with the amount to be applied to the Repurchase Price of any particular Purchased Mortgage Loan to be determined by Buyer, using such reasonable method of allocation as Buyer shall elect in its sole discretion at the time. Buyer’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to make a Margin Call at any time there is a Margin Deficit shall not in any way limit or impair its right to make a Margin Call at any other time a Margin Deficit exists (or still exists).

(c) Margin Excess. If on any day after Seller has transferred cash or Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(b), the sum of (i) the cash paid to Buyer and (ii) the aggregate of the Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans for all Transactions at that time, including any such Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans, exceeds the Aggregate Purchase Price, then at the request of Seller, Buyer shall return a portion of the cash or Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller so that the remaining sum of (i) and (ii) does not exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price; provided that the sum of the cash plus the value of Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans returned shall be strictly limited to an amount, after the return of which, no Margin Deficit will exist.

(d) Market Value Determinations. Buyer may determine the Market Value of any or all Purchased Mortgage Loans from time to time and with such frequency (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be daily), and taking into consideration such factors, as it may elect in its sole good faith discretion, including current market conditions and the fact that the Purchased Mortgage Loans may be sold or otherwise disposed of under circumstances where Seller is in default under this Agreement; provided that a Market Value of zero shall be assigned to any Purchased Mortgage Loan that, at the time of determination, is not an Eligible Mortgage Loan. Buyer’s determination of Market Value of Purchased Mortgage Loans will be made using Buyer’s customary methods for determining the price of comparable mortgage loans under the market conditions and Seller’s status prevailing at the time of determination, will not be equivalent to a determination of the fair market value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans made by obtaining competing bids under circumstances where the bidders have adequate opportunity to perform customary mortgage loan and servicing due diligence and, if (1) any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (2) Buyer in good faith believes that a secondary market Mortgage Loan purchaser would materially discount the likelihood of realization on any of Seller’s Mortgage Loan transfer warranties or (3) the market for comparable Mortgage Loans is illiquid or otherwise disorderly at the time, such determination will not be equivalent to a determination by Buyer of the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans made when, as applicable in the circumstances, (A) the originator/servicer is not in default, (B) the likelihood of realization on Seller’s transfer warranties is not materially discounted and/or (C) the market for comparable Mortgage Loans is not illiquid or otherwise disorderly. Buyer’s good faith determination of Market Value shall be conclusive upon the Parties.

5. Accounts; Income Payments

(a) Accounts. Seller agrees to establish or cause to be established (i) each of the Accounts at Financial Institution on or before the date hereof and (ii) the Impound Collection Account and the Income Collection Account if and when required by Buyer for the purposes of Sections 12(b)(iii) and/or 12(b)(iv). Seller’s taxpayer identification number will be designated as the taxpayer identification number for each Account, the Impound Collection Account and the

Income Collection Account, and Seller shall be responsible for reporting and paying taxes on any income earned with respect to the Accounts, the Impound Collection Account and the Income Collection Account. Each such deposit account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Buyer, and Seller agrees that (i) Seller shall have no right or authority to withdraw or otherwise give any directions with respect to any of such deposit accounts or the disposition of any funds held in such deposit accounts; provided that Seller may cause amounts to be deposited into any such deposit account at any time, and (ii) Financial Institution may comply with instructions originated by Buyer directing disposition of the funds in such deposit accounts without further consent of Seller. Only employees of Buyer shall be signers with respect to such deposit accounts. Pursuant to Section 6, Seller has pledged, assigned, transferred and granted a security interest to Buyer in the Accounts in which Seller has rights or power to transfer rights and all such deposit accounts in which Seller later acquires ownership, other rights or the power to transfer rights. Seller and Buyer hereby agree that Buyer has “control” of such deposit accounts within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC. Any provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding and for the avoidance of doubt, Seller agrees and acknowledges that Buyer is not required to return to Seller funds on deposit in an Account or the Income Collection Account if any amounts are owed hereunder to Buyer by Seller.

(b) Cash Pledge Account. On or before the date hereof, Seller shall deposit an amount equal to twenty-five basis points (0.25%) of the Facility Amount (the “Required Amount”) into the Cash Pledge Account. Seller shall cause an amount not less than the Required Amount to be on deposit in the Cash Pledge Account at all times. If on any Remittance Date, the amount on deposit in the Cash Pledge Account is greater than the Required Amount, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon Seller’s request such excess will be disbursed to Seller on such Remittance Date after application by Buyer to the payment of any amounts owing by Seller to Buyer on such date. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may apply the amounts on deposit in the Cash Pledge Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(f).

(c) Funding Account. The Funding Account shall be used for fundings of the Purchase Price and the Repurchase Price with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 3. Seller shall cause all amounts to be paid in respect of the Takeout Commitments to be remitted by the Approved Takeout Investors directly to the Funding Account without any requirement for any notice to or consent of Seller. On each Repurchase Date that occurs pursuant to Section 3(f) with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Buyer will apply the applicable amounts on deposit in the Funding Account to the unpaid Repurchase Price due to Buyer for such Purchased Mortgage Loan and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer will transfer the remaining balance, if any, in the Funding Account to the Operating Account. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may apply the amounts on deposit in the Funding Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(f).

(d) Operating Account.

(i) The Operating Account shall be used for the purposes of (1) Seller’s payment of Price Differential and any other amounts owing to Buyer under this Agreement, the Side Letter or any other Transaction Document, (2) Seller’s funding of any shortfall between (x)

the proceeds of an Eligible Mortgage Loan being purchased by Buyer that are to be disbursed at its Origination and (y) the Purchase Price to be paid by Buyer for that Eligible Mortgage Loan, (3) Seller’s payment of any difference between the Repurchase Price and the amount received by Buyer from the applicable Approved Takeout Investor in connection with the repurchase of a Purchased Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3(i) and (4) for any cash payments made by Seller to satisfy Margin Calls pursuant to Section 4(b).

(ii) On or before the fourth (4th) Business Day before each Remittance Date, Buyer will notify Seller in writing of the Price Differential and other amounts due Buyer on that Remittance Date. On or before the Business Day preceding each Remittance Date, Seller shall deposit into the Operating Account such cash, if any, as shall be required to make the balance in the Operating Account sufficient to pay all amounts due Buyer on that Remittance Date. On each Remittance Date, Buyer shall withdraw funds from the Operating Account to effect such payment to the extent of funds then available in the Operating Account. If the funds on deposit in the Operating Account are insufficient to pay the amounts then due Buyer in full, Seller shall pay the deficiency amount on the date such payment is due by wire transfer of such amount to the Operating Account, and Buyer shall withdraw the funds so deposited to pay such deficiency to the extent of the funds deposited.

(iii) Funds deposited by Seller in the Operating Account to cover the shortfall, if any, referred to in clause (2) of Section 5(d)(i) will be disbursed by Buyer to the Settlement Agent along with the Purchase Price of the related Eligible Mortgage Loan being purchased by Buyer to fund the Origination of such Mortgage Loan as provided in Section 3(b).

(iv) At any time after a Margin Call, if Seller fails to satisfy such Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, Buyer may withdraw funds from the Operating Account to pay such Margin Call and shall apply the funds so withdrawn for that purpose to reduce the Repurchase Prices of Purchased Mortgage Loans then subject to outstanding Transactions as provided in Section 4(b). At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may apply the amounts on deposit in the Operating Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(f).

(v) Unless (1) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (2) any amounts are then owing to Buyer or any Indemnified Party under this Agreement or another Transaction Document, on Seller’s request, Buyer will transfer the Operating Account balance to an account designated by Seller.

(e) Income Collection Account. Pursuant to Section 6, Seller has pledged, assigned and transferred the Income Collection Account to Buyer and granted Buyer a security interest in the Income Collection Account. No funds other than Income shall be deposited in the Income Collection Account. Where a particular Transaction’s term extends over the date on which Income is paid by the Mortgagor on any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to that Transaction, that Income will be the property of Buyer until Seller has paid Buyer the full Repurchase Price in respect of such Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and no Margin Deficit then exists, Buyer agrees that Seller or its designee shall be entitled to receive and retain that Income to the full extent it would have been so entitled if the Purchased Mortgage Loans had not been sold to Buyer; provided that any Income

received by Seller while the related Transaction is outstanding shall be deemed to be held by Seller or Subservicer (as the case may be) solely in trust for Buyer pending the payment of the Repurchase Price in respect of such Transaction and the repurchase of the related Purchased Mortgage Loans, and if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or a Margin Deficit exists that Seller has not satisfied in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, Buyer may direct Seller in writing to deposit into the Income Collection Account (or such other account as Buyer may direct) (i) all Income then held by Seller or Subservicer in respect of Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to outstanding Transactions and (ii) all future Income in respect of Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to new or outstanding Transactions when received by Seller or any Subservicer, and upon receipt of any such direction, Seller shall immediately cause all such Income then held to be deposited, and all such future Income to be deposited within one (1) Business Day after its receipt by Seller or Subservicer, into the Income Collection Account or to such other account as Buyer may direct.

(f) Application of Funds. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at such times as Buyer may direct in its sole discretion, Buyer shall apply all Income and other amounts on deposit in all or any of the Accounts, other than mortgagors’ actual escrow payments held in any account and required to be used for the payment of Property Charges in respect of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, in the same order and manner as is provided in Section 12(e) for proceeds of dispositions of Purchased Mortgage Loans not repurchased by Seller.

(g) Seller’s Obligations. The provisions of this Section 5 shall not relieve Seller from its obligations to pay the Repurchase Price on the applicable Repurchase Date and to satisfy any other payment obligation of Seller hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

6. Security Interest; Assignment of Takeout Commitments

(a) Security Interest. Although the Parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be absolute sales and purchases and not loans, to secure the payment and performance by Seller of its obligations, liabilities and indebtedness under each such Transaction and Seller’s obligations, liabilities and indebtedness under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, Seller hereby pledges, assigns, transfers and grants to Buyer a security interest in the Mortgage Assets in which Seller has rights or power to transfer rights and all of the Mortgage Assets in which Seller later acquires ownership, other rights or the power to transfer rights. “Mortgage Assets” means (i) the Purchased Mortgage Loans with respect to all Transactions hereunder (including, without limitation, all Servicing Rights with respect thereto), (ii) all Servicing Records, Loan Eligibility Files, Asset Files, Mortgage Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Mortgage Note and Mortgage, and all of Seller’s claims, liens, rights, title and interests in and to the Mortgaged Property in each case related to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (iii) all Liens securing repayment of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (iv) all Income with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (v) the Accounts, (vi) the Takeout Commitments to the extent Seller’s rights thereunder relate to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, (vii) all Hedging Arrangements to the extent specifically relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, (viii) the Income Collection Account, together with all interest on the Income Collection Account, all modifications, extensions and increases of the Income Collection Account and all sums now or at any time hereafter on deposit in the Income Collection Account or represented by the Income Collection Account and (ix) all proceeds of the foregoing including, without limitation, all MBS and the right to have and receive such MBS when

issued, that are, in whole or in part, based on, backed by or created from Purchased Mortgage Loans for which the full Repurchase Price has not been received by Buyer, irrespective of whether such Purchased Mortgage Loans have been released from this security interest. Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statements and amendments relating to the Mortgage Assets as Buyer may deem appropriate, and irrevocably appoints Buyer as Seller’s attorney-in-fact to take such other actions as Buyer deems necessary or appropriate to perfect and continue the Lien granted hereby and to protect, preserve and realize on the Mortgage Assets. Seller shall pay all fees and expenses associated with perfecting such Liens including the cost of filing financing statements and amendments under the UCC, registering each Purchased Mortgage Loan with MERS and recording assignments of the Mortgages as and when required by Buyer in its reasonable discretion.

(b) UCC Rights and Remedies. In addition to the other rights and remedies granted to Buyer in the Transaction Documents, Buyer shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind to or upon Seller or any other Person (all of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices, except any advertisement or notice required by law or any notice expressly required by another provision of the Transaction Documents, are hereby waived), may collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon all or any part of the Mortgage Assets, or consent to the use by Seller or any Mortgagor of any cash collateral arising in respect of the Mortgage Assets on such terms as Buyer deems reasonable, and/or may sell, lease, assign give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver, and/or acquire by credit bid, all or any part of the Mortgage Assets (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Buyer or elsewhere, upon such terms and conditions as Buyer may deem advisable and at such prices as Buyer may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery, all without assumption of any credit risk. Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Mortgage Assets so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Seller or any other Person, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Seller further agrees, at Buyer’s request, to assemble the Mortgage Assets and make them available to Buyer at places which Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at Seller’s premises or elsewhere. Buyer shall apply the proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6(b), after first applying such proceeds to pay (i) all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the retaking, holding, care, safekeeping, preparing for disposition, processing and disposing of any of the Mortgage Assets or in any other way relating to the Mortgage Assets or the rights of Buyer hereunder, and (ii) to the extent not prohibited by law, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses incurred by Buyer, in accordance with clauses first through fifth of Section 12(e) (although without duplication of the applications provided for in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence) and only after such applications and after the payment by Buyer of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need Buyer account for the surplus, if any, to Seller. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Buyer arising out of the exercise of any of Buyer’s rights under Sections 4, 6, 12 or 16. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Mortgage Assets shall be required

by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

(c) Assignment of Takeout Commitment. The sale of each Mortgage Loan to Buyer shall include Seller’s rights (but none of the obligations) under the applicable Takeout Commitment to deliver the Mortgage Loan or the related MBS, as applicable, to the Approved Takeout Investor and to receive the net sum therefor specified in the Takeout Commitment from the Approved Takeout Investor. Effective on and after the Purchase Date for each Mortgage Loan purchased by Buyer hereunder, Seller assigns to Buyer, free and clear of any Lien, all of Seller’s right, title and interest in any applicable Takeout Commitment for such Mortgage Loan; provided that Buyer shall not assume or be deemed to have assumed any of the obligations of Seller under any Takeout Commitment.

All of Seller’s interest in the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including the Servicing Rights) shall pass to Buyer on the Purchase Date and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise selling, transferring, pledging or hypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans, but no such

For the purposes hereof, good standing shall include qualification for any and all licenses and payment of any and all taxes required in the jurisdiction of its organization and in each jurisdiction in which Seller or a Subsidiary transacts business.

properties or any part thereof; provided that Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to pay obligations, Debt, taxes, assessments or governmental charges or levies or claims for labor, materials or supplies for which Seller or its Subsidiaries shall have obtained an adequate bond or adequate insurance or that are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings that are being reasonably and diligently pursued, if such proceedings do not involve any likelihood of the sale, forfeiture or loss of any such property or any interest therein while such proceedings are pending and if adequate book reserves determined in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, are established therefor.

(ii) (A) All payments made by Seller under this Agreement 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, excluding taxes imposed on (or measured by) Buyer’s net income (however denominated) or capital, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes or any other tax imposed on the net income by the United States, a state or a foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which Buyer is organized or of its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof (collectively, “Taxes”), all of which shall be paid by Seller for its own account not later than the date when due.

(B) In addition, Seller agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with all applicable Requirements of Law any current or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including 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 and Other Taxes (including additional amounts with respect thereto), and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 11(f), and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) 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) Any assignee of Buyer that is not incorporated or otherwise created under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia (a “Foreign Buyer”) shall provide Seller with properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying (X) that such Foreign Buyer is either (1) entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party that eliminates United

States withholding tax under Sections 1441 through 1442 of the Code on payments to it or (2) otherwise fully exempts from United States withholding tax under Sections 1441 through 1442 of the Code on payments to it, or (Y) that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, on or before the date upon which each such Foreign Buyer becomes a purchaser of Mortgage Loans hereunder. Each Foreign Buyer will resubmit the appropriate form on the earliest of (x) the third anniversary of the prior submission or (y) on or before the expiration of thirty (30) days after there is a “change in circumstances” with respect to such Foreign Buyer as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.1441(e)(4)(ii)(D). For any period with respect to which a Foreign Buyer has failed to provide Seller with the appropriate form or other relevant document pursuant to this Section 11(f)(ii) (unless such failure is due to a change in any Requirement of Law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Foreign Buyer shall not be entitled to any “gross-up” of Taxes or indemnification under this Section 11(f) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that should a Foreign Buyer, that is otherwise exempt from a withholding tax, become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, Seller shall take such steps as such Foreign Buyer shall reasonably request to assist such Foreign Buyer to recover such Taxes.

(E) Without prejudice to the survival or any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 11(f) shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 11(f) shall require Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(F) Each Party acknowledges that it is its intent, for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes only, to treat each purchase transaction hereunder as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans and that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. All Parties agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment unless required by law.

(g) Insurance. Seller shall maintain, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to maintain, at no cost to Buyer (a) errors and omissions insurance or mortgage impairment insurance and blanket bond coverage, with such companies and in such amounts as to satisfy the requirements of prevailing Agency Guidelines applicable to a qualified mortgage originating institution, and shall cause Seller’s policy to be endorsed with the Blanket Bond Required Endorsement and (b) liability insurance and fire and other hazard insurance on its properties, with responsible insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Buyer, in such amounts and against such risks as is customarily carried by similar businesses operating in the same vicinity.

(iii) together with each delivery of financial statements required in this Section 11(h), a Compliance Certificate executed by Seller’s chief financial officer;

of any shares of its stock (or equivalent equity interest) or of any warrants, rights or other options to purchase any shares of its stock (or equivalent equity interest), nor purchase, acquire, redeem or retire any stock (or equivalent equity interest) in itself whether now or hereafter outstanding; provided that, only if no Default or Event of Default exists at the time of the payment and none will exist after giving effect to such payment, Seller may pay cash distributions to its equity owners.

(j) Use of Chase’s Name. Seller shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, confine its use of Buyer’s logo and the “JPMorgan” and “Chase” names to those uses specifically authorized by Buyer in writing. Except where required by the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act or the CFPB’s Regulation X thereunder, or the Helping Families Save Their Homes Act of 2009, as amended from time to time, or another Requirement of Law, in no instance may Seller or any of its Subsidiaries disclose to any prospective Mortgagor, or the agents of the Mortgagor, that such Mortgagor’s Mortgage Loan will be offered for sale to Buyer. None of Seller or its Subsidiaries may use Buyer’s name or logo to obtain any mortgage-related services without the prior written consent of Buyer.

(l) Transactions with Affiliates. Seller will not and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to (i) enter into any transaction, including any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, with any Affiliate unless such transaction is (a) otherwise permitted under this Agreement or (b) in the ordinary course of Seller’s or such Subsidiary’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to Seller or such Subsidiary than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate, or (ii) make a payment that is not otherwise permitted by this Section 11 to any Affiliate.

(m) Defense of Title; Preservation of Mortgage Assets. Seller warrants and will defend the right, title and interest of Buyer in and to all Mortgage Assets against all adverse claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. Seller shall do all things necessary to preserve the Mortgage Assets so that such Mortgage Assets remain subject to a first priority perfected Lien hereunder, excluding Hedging Arrangements that cover both Purchased Mortgage Loans and Mortgage Loans that are subject to another Available Warehouse Facility, as to which Seller will do all things necessary to keep Buyer’s Lien pari passu with the Lien of the counterparty to such other Available Warehouse Facility. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller will comply with all Requirements of Law applicable to Seller or relating to the Mortgage Assets and cause the Mortgage Assets to comply with all applicable Requirements of Law. Seller will not allow any default to occur for which Seller is responsible under any Mortgage Assets or any Transaction Documents and Seller shall fully perform or cause to be performed when due all of its obligations under any Mortgage Assets and the Transaction Documents.

(n) Limitation on Sale of Assets. Seller shall not convey, sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of (collectively, “Transfer”), all or substantially all of its property, business or assets (including receivables and leasehold interests) whether now owned or hereafter acquired or allow any of its Subsidiaries to Transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any Person.

(o) No Amendment or Compromise. Without Buyer’s prior written consent, none of Seller or those acting on Seller’s behalf shall amend or modify, or waive any term or condition of, or settle or compromise any claim in respect of, any Purchased Mortgage Loan, any related Mortgage Document or any related rights if such amendment, modification, waiver, settlement or compromise could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the value of such Purchased Mortgage Loan.

(p) Loan Determined to be Defaulted or Defective. Upon discovery by Seller that any Purchased Mortgage Loan is a Defaulted Loan or a Defective Mortgage Loan, Seller shall promptly give notice of such discovery to Buyer.

(q) Most Favored Status. If Seller hereafter enters into a mortgage warehousing or Servicing Rights repurchase agreement, credit agreement or similar credit facility with any Person other than Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer that provides more favorable terms than Sections 11(y)(i)(Leverage Ratio), 11(y)(ii) (Minimum Tangible Net Worth), 11(y)(iii) (Maintenance of Liquidity) or 11(y)(v) (Net Income) (each, a “More Favorable Agreement”), Seller shall promptly give Buyer notice thereof and deliver a true, correct and complete copy of such More Favorable Agreement promptly after entering into it, and this Agreement shall be deemed automatically amended effective as of the effective date of such More Favorable Agreement, to include such more favorable terms so that such terms operate in favor of Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer (as applicable) to the same effect as if they were expressly stated in this Agreement and agrees, upon Buyer’s request, to execute an amendment of this Agreement setting forth such amended terms; provided, that if any such More Favorable Agreement is subsequently terminated, upon Buyer’s receipt of notice of such termination from Seller, the relevant terms of this Agreement as originally written shall be deemed automatically reinstated effective as of the termination date of such terminated More Favorable Agreement, and if the parties have executed an amendment of this Agreement setting forth such more favorable terms, the parties agree, upon request of either of them, to execute a further amendment reinstating such original terms. No amendment referred to in this Section 11(q) shall be a precondition to the effectiveness of such more favorable terms or such reinstated terms, as applicable, but is only for the convenience of the parties.

(d) Upon the exercise by Buyer of its option under Section 12(b)(i), without prior notice to Seller, Buyer may (A) immediately sell, on a servicing released or servicing retained basis as Buyer deems desirable, in a recognized market at such price or prices as Buyer may in its sole discretion deem satisfactory, any or all Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Seller to Buyer or any other Indemnified Party under the Transaction Documents or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the Market Value therefor on such date against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Seller to Buyer or any other Indemnified Party under the Transaction Documents.

(e) The proceeds of any disposition or the amount of any credit described above shall be applied first, to the costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default (including reasonable legal fees and consulting fees, accounting fees, file transfer and inventory fees, costs and expenses reasonably incurred in respect of a transfer of the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with a disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans); second, to costs of cover and/or related hedging transactions; third, to the aggregate and accrued Price Differential owed

hereunder, fourth, to the remaining aggregate Repurchase Prices owed hereunder; fifth, to any other accrued and unpaid obligations of Seller hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and sixth, any remaining proceeds shall be paid to Seller or other Person legally entitled thereto.

(f) The Parties acknowledge and agree that:

(i) Buyer has no desire or intention to hold any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans for investment under any circumstances, and if (x) Seller fails to repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Loan when required to do so by this Agreement, whether before or after its termination, or (y) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (z) Buyer has not made an affirmative election under the circumstances then prevailing to retain such Purchased Mortgage Loan pursuant to clause (B) of Section 12(d), Buyer will sell it (i) if practicable and if the sale can be made without Buyer’s having to undertake representation, warranty or other obligations that Buyer, acting in its sole discretion, considers unacceptable, to the relevant Approved Takeout Investor (if any), or (ii) by private sale to another Person in the secondary mortgage market, undertaking only such representation, warranty and other obligations, if any, to such Person as Buyer, acting in its sole discretion, considers acceptable, at the earliest reasonable opportunity and for such price as Buyer, acting in its sole discretion, determines to be the optimal price available at the time of such sale; provided that if at any time Buyer determines that the secondary market for residential mortgage loans is illiquid, disrupted or dysfunctional, Buyer may elect to postpone sales of Purchased Mortgage Loans for so long as Buyer determines that any such market conditions persist, and no such delay shall be construed to constitute or require a change in the classification of the Purchased Mortgage Loans in Buyer’s hands from “held for sale” to “held for investment”, and in all cases, to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, their Market Value shall be the only “reasonable determinant of value” of Purchased Mortgage Loans for purposes of Section 562 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(ii) in the absence (whether because of market disruptions or for any other reason whatsoever) of a generally recognized source for secondary mortgage market prices of, or for bid or offer quotations for, any one or more Purchased Mortgage Loans at any time, whether before or after any termination of this Agreement, Buyer may determine the Market Values of such Purchased Mortgage Loans using such means, methods, averaging, weighting, calculations and assumptions as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be appropriate, and Buyer’s determination shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error, for all purposes, it being the Parties’ specific intention to include therein the purposes of Sections 559 and 562 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(iii) except to the extent, if any, contrary to market practice, in determining values of Purchased Mortgage Loans, Buyer shall include all related accrued Income available either to be transferred to a secondary market purchaser or to be retained by Buyer to reduce their Repurchase Prices; and

(iv) in determining the Market Value of any Purchased Mortgage Loans, it is reasonable for Buyer to use and rely on the Asset Schedule provided by Seller pursuant to Section 3(c) without being required to check or verify the accuracy or completeness of such information.

(g) The Parties further recognize that if, under the circumstances described in clause (x) or clause (y) of Section 12(f)(i), Buyer has elected to sell Purchased Mortgage Loans, the market for Mortgage Loans may then be insufficiently liquid or dysfunctional in other respects, they agree that Buyer may elect the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Mortgage Loan, and nothing contained herein shall obligate Buyer (i) to liquidate any Purchased Mortgage Loan immediately after Seller’s failure to repurchase it when required by this Agreement, the occurrence of an Event of Default or any termination of this Agreement, or (ii) to liquidate all Purchased Mortgage Loans in the same manner or on the same day, and no exercise by Buyer of any right or remedy shall constitute a waiver of any other right or remedy. Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions reasonably incurred) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(h) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall be liable to Buyer for interest on any amount owing by Seller hereunder that Seller has failed to pay when due, from the date such amount became due and payable until such amount is (i) paid in full by or on behalf of Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Buyer’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by Seller to Buyer under this Section 12(h) shall be at a rate equal to the greater of (x) the Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction and (y) the Prime Rate plus five percent (5%).

(i) If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Buyer shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement entered into in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, under applicable law or in equity.

(j) Seller hereby acknowledges, admits and agrees that Seller’s obligations under this Agreement are recourse obligations of Seller.

13. Servicing Rights Are Owned by Buyer; Interim Servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans

(a) As a condition of purchasing an Eligible Mortgage Loan, Buyer hereby engages Seller to interim service such Purchased Mortgage Loan as agent for Buyer for a term (the “Interim Servicing Term”) commencing on the Purchase Date of such Purchased Mortgage Loan and ending on the first Remittance Date thereafter, as such term may be renewed from time to time as provided in Section 13(a)(vi), on the following terms and conditions:

(i) Seller shall interim service and temporarily administer the Purchased Mortgage Loan on behalf of Buyer in accordance with prudent mortgage loan servicing standards and procedures generally accepted in the mortgage banking industry and in accordance with all applicable requirements of the Agencies, Requirements of Law, the provisions of any applicable servicing agreement, and the requirements of any applicable Takeout Commitment and the Approved Takeout Investor that issued it, so that the eligibility of the Purchased Mortgage Loan

for purchase under such Takeout Commitment is not voided or reduced by such interim servicing and temporary administration;

(ii) If any Eligible Mortgage Loan that is proposed to be sold on a Purchase Date is serviced by a servicer other than Seller or any of its Affiliates (a “Subservicer”), or if the interim servicing of any Purchased Mortgage Loan is to be transferred to a Subservicer, Seller shall provide a copy of the related subservicing agreement and a Subservicer Instruction Letter executed by such Subservicer (collectively, the “Subservicing Agreement”) to Buyer before such Purchase Date or interim servicing transfer date, as applicable. Each such Subservicing Agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to Buyer. In addition, Seller shall have obtained the prior written consent of Buyer for such Subservicer to subservice the Purchased Mortgage Loans, which consent may be withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion. In no event shall Seller’s use of a Subservicer relieve Seller of its obligations hereunder, and Seller shall remain liable under this Agreement as if Seller were interim servicing such Purchased Mortgage Loans directly. Any termination of Seller as interim servicer shall automatically terminate each Subservicer. If any Agency or Governmental Authority revokes or materially restricts any Subservicer’s authority to originate, sell or service Mortgage Loans, or if any Subservicer shall fail to meet all requisite originator, seller and servicer eligibility qualifications promulgated by any Agency, Buyer may direct Seller to immediately terminate such Subservicer as a subservicer of any or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Seller shall promptly cause the termination of such Subservicer as directed by Buyer.

(iii) Seller acknowledges that it has no right, title or interest in the Servicing Rights for any Purchased Mortgage Loan, and agrees that Seller may not transfer or assign any rights to master service, service, interim service, subservice or administer any Purchased Mortgage Loan before Seller’s repurchase thereof from Buyer (by payment to Buyer of the Repurchase Price therefor) other than an interim servicing transfer to a Subservicer approved by Buyer pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement approved by Buyer as described above in this Section 13.

(iv) Seller shall deliver all physical and contractual servicing materials, files and records for the servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with all of the related Servicing Records that are not already in Buyer’s or Custodian’s possession, to Buyer’s designee upon the earliest of (x) the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default hereunder unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller that the Interim Servicing Term is renewed and specifying the renewal term, (y) the termination of Seller as interim servicer by Buyer pursuant to Section 13(a)(v) or (z) the expiration (and non-renewal) of the Interim Servicing Term. Seller’s transfer of the Servicing Records and the physical and such contractual servicing materials, files and records under this Section 13(a)(iv) shall be in accordance with customary standards in the industry and such transfer shall include the transfer of the gross amount of all escrows held for the related mortgagors (without reduction for unreimbursed advances or “negative escrows”).

(v) Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default or (ii) the downgrade of Seller’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ servicer ratings below Xxxxx’x rating of “SQ3” or S&P’s rating of “Average”, Buyer shall have the right to terminate Seller as interim servicer of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, which right shall be exercisable at any time in Buyer’s sole discretion, upon written notice.

(vi) The Interim Servicing Term will be deemed renewed (when it would otherwise expire) on each Remittance Date following the second Remittance Date after the related Purchase Date for a renewal term extending to the next succeeding Remittance Date unless (i) Seller has sooner been terminated as interim servicer of all of the Purchased Mortgaged Loans pursuant to Section 13(a)(v), or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which latter event the Interim Servicing Term will expire on the earlier of (x) the termination date specified in a Buyer’s notice to Seller terminating the Interim Servicing Term or (y) such Remittance Date unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller that the Interim Servicing Term is renewed and specifying the renewal term.

(vii) The Interim Servicing Term will automatically terminate and Seller shall have no further obligation to interim service such Purchased Mortgage Loan as agent for Buyer or to make the delivery of documents required under this Section 13, upon receipt by Buyer of the Repurchase Price therefor.

(viii) Buyer has no obligation to pay Seller a fee for the interim servicing obligations Seller agrees to assume hereunder, no fee or other compensation will ever accrue or be or become owing, due or payable for or on account of such interim servicing and such interim servicing rights have no monetary value.

(b) During the period Seller is interim servicing the Purchased Mortgage Loans as agent for Buyer, Seller agrees that Buyer is the owner of the related Servicing Rights, Credit Files and Servicing Records and Seller, acting as interim servicer, shall at all times maintain and safeguard, and cause any Subservicer to maintain and safeguard, the Credit File for the Purchased Mortgage Loan (including photocopies or images of the documents delivered to Buyer), and accurate and complete records of its interim servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller’s possession of the Credit Files and Servicing Records being for the sole purpose of interim servicing such Purchased Mortgage Loans and such retention and possession by Seller being in a temporary custodial capacity only.

(i) Buyer may, at any time during Seller’s business hours on reasonable notice (provided that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, no notice shall be required), examine and make copies of all such documents and records relating to interim servicing and administration of the Purchased Mortgage Loans;

(ii) At Buyer’s request, Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer reports regarding the status of any Purchased Mortgage Loan being interim serviced by Seller, which reports shall include a description of any event that would cause the Purchased Mortgage Loan to become a Defaulted Loan or a Defective Mortgage Loan or any other circumstances that could cause a material adverse effect on such Purchased Mortgage Loan, Buyer’s title to such Purchased Mortgage Loan or the collateral securing such Purchased Mortgage Loan; Seller may be required to deliver such reports until the repurchase of the Purchased Mortgage Loan by Seller;

(iii) Seller shall immediately notify Buyer if it becomes aware of any payment default that occurs under any Purchased Mortgage Loan or any default under any Subservicing

Agreement that would materially and adversely affect any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject thereto; and

(iv) If, during the Post-Origination Period, any Mortgagor contacts Seller requesting a payoff quote on the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall ensure that any payoff quote provided requires Mortgagor to wire payoff funds directly to the Funding Account and includes wiring instructions therefor.

(d) Seller shall release the contents of any Credit File or any Asset File only (i) pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the written instructions of Buyer, (iii) to a Subservicer approved by Buyer, (iv) when such release is required as incidental to Seller’s servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, or is required to complete its sale to an Approved Takeout Investor or comply with any applicable Takeout Commitment or (iv) as required by any Requirement of Law.

(e) Buyer reserves the right to appoint a successor interim servicer, or a regular servicer, at any time to service any Purchased Mortgage Loan (each a “Successor Servicer”) in its sole discretion. If Buyer elects to make such an appointment after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, Seller shall be assessed all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer associated with transferring the physical and contractual servicing materials, files and records for the servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with all related Servicing Records, to the Successor Servicer. In the event of such an appointment, Seller shall perform all acts and take all action so that any part of the Credit File and related Servicing Records held by Seller, together with any and all mortgagors’ escrow payments held in any account and all other receipts relating to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, are promptly delivered to the Successor Servicer, and shall otherwise fully cooperate with Buyer in effectuating such transfer. Seller shall have no claim for lost interim servicing income, any termination fee, lost profits or other damages if Buyer appoints a Successor Servicer hereunder. Buyer may, in its sole discretion if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, without payment of any termination fee or any other amount to Seller or any Subservicer, sell any or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a servicing released basis, at the sole cost and expense of Seller.

(f) In the event Seller is terminated as interim servicer of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, whether by expiry of the Interim Servicing Term or by any other means, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in effecting such termination and transferring all authority to interim service such Purchased Mortgage Loan to the Successor Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall, in the manner and at such times as the Successor Servicer or Buyer shall reasonably request (i) promptly transfer all data in its possession relating to the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans and other Mortgage Assets to the Successor Servicer in such electronic format as the Successor Servicer may reasonably request, (ii) promptly transfer to the Successor Servicer, Buyer or Buyer’s designee all other files, records, correspondence and documents relating to the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans and other Mortgage Assets and (iii) fully cooperate and coordinate with the Successor Servicer and/or Buyer to comply with any applicable so-called “goodbye” letter requirements, notices or other applicable requirements of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act or other applicable Requirements of Law applicable to the transfer of the servicing of the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans. Seller agrees that if Seller fails to cooperate with Buyer or any Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of Seller as

servicer of any Purchased Mortgage Loan or the transfer of all authority to service such Purchased Mortgage Loan to such Successor Servicer in accordance with the terms hereof, Buyer will be irreparably harmed and entitled to injunctive relief and shall not be required to post bond.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document, Seller and Buyer agree that all Servicing Rights with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans are being transferred hereunder to Buyer on the applicable Purchase Date, the Purchase Price for the Purchased Mortgage Loans includes full and fair consideration for such Servicing Rights and such Servicing Rights will be conclusively deemed to be transferred by Buyer to Seller upon Seller’s payment of the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loans.

(c) EACH OF SELLER AND BUYER (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF) HEREBY VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) BETWEEN SELLER AND BUYER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO BUYER TO PROVIDE THE FACILITY PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT.

24. No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by Buyer shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by Buyer shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any Party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the Parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 4(a) will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

25. Use of Employee Plan Assets

(a) If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of ERISA are intended to be used by Seller in a Transaction, Seller shall so notify Buyer before the Transaction. Seller shall represent in writing to Buyer that the Transaction does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and Buyer may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to proceed.

(b) Subject to the last sentence of Section 25(a), any such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to Buyer its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition.

(c) By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Section 25, Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller’s financial condition that Seller has not disclosed to Buyer, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as any such Transaction is outstanding.

26. Intent

(a) The Parties intend and acknowledge that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code. Seller hereby agrees that it shall not challenge the characterization of this Agreement as a “repurchase agreement” as that

term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, or as a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code in any dispute or proceeding.

(b) It is understood that either Party’s right to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or to liquidate Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder, or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 12, is a contractual right to accelerate, terminate or liquidate this Agreement or such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of the Bankruptcy Code.

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

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

(e) It is understood and agreed that this Agreement constitutes a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, and that either Party’s right to cause the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of, or to offset net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Transaction is a contractual right to cause the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of, or to offset net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Transaction as described in Section 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

27. Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The Parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other Party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

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

(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder other than funds on deposit in an Account are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by either the FDIC or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund.

28. Confidentiality

(a) Confidential Terms. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all written or computer-readable information provided by one Party to any other regarding the terms set forth in any of the Transaction Documents or the Transactions contemplated thereby (the “Confidential Terms”) shall be kept confidential and shall not be divulged to any Person without the prior written consent of such other Party except to the extent that (i) such Person is an Affiliate, Subsidiary, division, or parent holding company of a Party or a director, officer, employee or agent (including an accountant, legal counsel and other advisor) of a Party or such Affiliate, division or parent holding company, (ii) in such Party’s opinion it is necessary to do so in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies or regulatory bodies (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) or in order to comply with any applicable federal or state laws or regulations, (iii) any of the Confidential Terms are in the public domain other than due to a breach of this covenant, (iv) in the event of a Default or an Event of Default Buyer reasonably determines such information to be necessary or desirable to disclose in connection with the marketing and sales of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise to enforce or exercise Buyer’s rights hereunder, or (v) in Buyer’s opinion, it is necessary or appropriate to disclose it to Custodian, or in connection with an assignment or participation under Section 21 or in connection with any hedging transaction related to Purchased Mortgage Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Parties may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact that may be relevant to understanding the U.S. federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such U.S. federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment, and the Parties may disclose information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the financing industry; provided that Seller may not disclose (except as provided in clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 28(a)) the name of or identifying information with respect to Buyer or any pricing terms (including the Pricing Rate, Facility Fee or other fee, Purchase Price Percentage and Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the U.S. federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the U.S. federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of Buyer. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Terms as provided in this Section 28(a) shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Terms as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. The provisions set forth in this Section 28(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year following such termination.

(b) Privacy of Customer Information.

(i) Seller’s Customer Information in the possession of Buyer, other than information independently obtained by Buyer and not derived in any manner from or using information obtained under or in connection with this Agreement, is and shall remain confidential and proprietary information of Seller. Except in accordance with this Section 28(b), Buyer shall not use any Seller’s Customer Information for any purpose, including the marketing of products or services to, or the solicitation of business from, Customers, or disclose any Seller’s Customer Information to any Person, including any of Buyer’s employees, agents or contractors or any third party not affiliated with Buyer. Buyer may use or disclose Seller’s Customer Information only to the extent necessary (1) for examination and audit of Buyer’s activities, books and records by Buyer’s regulatory authorities, (2) to protect or exercise Buyer’s rights and privileges or (3) to carry out Buyer’s express obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including providing Seller’s Customer Information to Approved Takeout Investors), and for no other purpose; provided that Buyer may also use and disclose Seller’s Customer Information as expressly permitted by Seller in writing, to the extent that such express permission is in accordance with the Privacy Requirements. Buyer shall take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that each Person to which Buyer intends to disclose Seller’s Customer Information, before any such disclosure of information, agrees to keep confidential any such Seller’s Customer Information and to use or disclose such Seller’s Customer Information only to the extent necessary to protect or exercise Buyer’s rights and privileges, or to carry out Buyer’s express obligations, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including providing Seller’s Customer Information to Approved Takeout Investors). Buyer agrees to maintain an information security program and to assess, manage and control risks relating to the security and confidentiality of Seller’s Customer Information pursuant to such program in the same manner as Buyer does in respect of its own customers’ information, and shall implement the standards relating to such risks in the manner set forth in the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Company Customer Information set forth in 12 CFR Parts 30, 168, 170, 208, 211, 225, 263, 308 and 364. Without limiting the scope of the foregoing sentence, Buyer shall use at least the same physical and other security measures to protect all of Seller’s Customer Information in its possession or control as it uses for its own customers’ confidential and proprietary information.

(ii) Seller shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties against, and hold each of them harmless from, any losses, liabilities, damages, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) suffered or incurred by any Indemnified Party relating to or arising out of Seller’s loss, improper disclosure or misuse of any Seller’s Customer Information.

29. Setoff

Except to the extent specifically permitted herein (including as set forth in Section 14), Seller hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives all right to setoff that it may have under contract (including this Agreement), applicable law, in equity or otherwise with respect to any funds or monies of Buyer (or any disclosed principal for which Buyer is acting as agent) at any time held by or in the possession of Seller.

Seller agrees that, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, Buyer may set off any funds or monies of Seller at any time held by or in the possession of Buyer in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise, against any amounts Seller owes to Buyer, or against any amounts Seller owes to any other Indemnified Party, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The foregoing provision shall not be applicable to escrow withholds or escrow payments for Property Charges held by or in the possession of Buyer in a deposit account or otherwise.

30. WAIVER OF SPECIAL DAMAGES.

SELLER WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT SELLER MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM BUYER IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

31. USA PATRIOT ACT NOTIFICATION.

The following notification is provided to Seller pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. What this means for Seller: When Seller opens an account, if Seller is an individual, Buyer will ask for Seller's name, taxpayer identification number, residential address, date of birth, and other information that will allow Buyer to identify Seller, and if Seller is not an individual, Buyer will ask for Seller's name, taxpayer identification number, business address, and other information that will allow Buyer to identify Seller. Buyer may also ask, if Seller is an individual, to see Seller's driver’s license or other identifying documents, and if Seller is not an individual to see Seller's legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.

Exhibit A, Page 2

EXHIBIT B

RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LOANS
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

With respect to each Mortgage Loan, (i) as of the Purchase Date for the purchase of any Purchased Mortgage Loans by Buyer from Seller and as of the date of this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder, and (ii) at all times while the Transaction Documents or any Transaction hereunder is in force and effect, Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that each of the statements set forth as lettered items of this Exhibit B-1 is true and correct. For purposes of this Exhibit B-1 and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Mortgage Loan if and when Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Loan Level Representation that is made to the best of Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered by Seller or Buyer that the substance of such Loan Level Representation is inaccurate, notwithstanding Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of that Loan Level Representation.

(a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the related Asset Schedule is complete, true and correct.

(b) Valid First Lien. The Mortgage is properly recorded (or, as to newly-Originated Mortgage Loans, is in the process of being recorded) and is a valid, existing and enforceable first Lien with respect to each Mortgage Loan that is indicated by Seller to be a first Lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property, free and clear of all adverse claims, and Liens having priority over the Lien of the Mortgage, subject only to (i) the Lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording being acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to Seller and that do not adversely affect the purchase by, or the purchase price to be paid by, the Approved Takeout Investor, and (iii) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject that do not individually or in the aggregate materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest securing the related Mortgage Loan on the property described therein and Seller has full right to sell and assign the related Mortgage Assets to Buyer.

(c) Validity of Mortgage Documents. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, Seller or its designee has in its possession all Servicing Files except for those Servicing Files that Seller has disclosed to Buyer are outstanding. The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Mortgagor thereof, enforceable in all respects in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors and (ii) general principles of equity, whether

Exhibit B, Page 1

enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law, and Seller has taken all action necessary to transfer such rights of enforceability to Buyer. Neither the operation of any of the terms of any Mortgage or Mortgage Note, nor the exercise by any holder of any right thereunder, will render the Mortgage or Mortgage Note unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, and no such right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto. All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties. All items required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered to Buyer, within the time frames set forth in this Agreement, and if a document is delivered in imaged format, such images must be of sufficient quality to be readable and able to be copied. There is only one original executed Mortgage Note with respect to such Mortgage Loan.

(d) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property. There is no homestead or other exemption or right available to the Mortgagor or any other person that would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage. The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms that are conforming to the Agency Guidelines and the Takeout Commitment, as applicable.

(e) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments that (a) have been recorded in the applicable public recording office if required by law or if necessary to maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage and (b) have been delivered to Buyer; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the insurer under the private mortgage insurance policy, if any, and by the title insurer, to the extent required by the related policy provided by Seller and is reflected appropriately on any and all documentation or data and is true and accurate in all respects. No other instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the private mortgage insurance policy, if any, and by the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement is a part of the Asset File. As of the Purchase Date, the full original principal amount of each Mortgage Loan has been fully disbursed as provided for in the Mortgage Loan Documents, and there is no requirement for any future advances.

(f) No Defenses. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto;

Exhibit B, Page 2

and neither the Mortgagor nor the Mortgaged Property is as of the Purchase Date or was as of the Origination Date, subject to an Act of Insolvency.

(g) No Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults by Seller or any Subservicer in complying with the terms of the Mortgage, and (1) all taxes, ground rents, special assessments, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments, water, sewer and municipal charges that previously became due and owing have been paid, or escrow funds have been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such escrowed item that remains unpaid and that has been assessed but is not yet due and payable before any “economic loss” dates or discount dates (or if payments were made after any “economic loss” date or discount date, then Seller has paid any penalty or reimbursed any discount out of Seller’s funds) and (2) all flood and hazard insurance premiums and private mortgage insurance premiums that are due, have been paid without loss or penalty to the Mortgagor. As of the Purchase Date, no event that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under a Mortgage Loan has occurred, including a violation of applicable law, local ordinances or city codes resulting from a deterioration or defect existing in any Mortgaged Property, and neither Seller nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration. Seller has received no notice of, and has no knowledge of, any event, including the bankruptcy filing or death of a Mortgagor, that may or could give rise to a Mortgagor default under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage. None of Seller or any Subservicer has advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance from any Person other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount due under the Mortgage Loan, unless otherwise permitted in the Takeout Commitment.

(h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the Lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release. Neither Seller nor any Subservicer has waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, and neither Seller nor any Subservicer has waived any default.

(i) No Default. There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration, and neither Seller nor any Subservicer has waived any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration. With respect to each Mortgage Loan (i) the first Lien securing the Mortgage Loan is in full force and effect, (ii) there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under such first Lien Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note, and (iii) no event that, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder.

(j) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed to or for the account of the Mortgagor and there is no obligation for the mortgagee to advance additional funds thereunder and any and all requirements as to completion of any on site or off site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees, and expenses incurred in

Exhibit B, Page 3

making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage have been paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due to the mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage with exception to escrow holdbacks.

(k) No Mechanics’ Liens. There are no mechanics’ or similar Liens or claims filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such a Lien) affecting the related Mortgaged Property that are or may be Liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the Lien of the related Mortgage.

(l) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the Lien of the corresponding Mortgage on the Mortgaged Property and the security interest of any applicable security agreement.

(m) Origination; Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was originated by Seller or, if a Correspondent Loan, an Approved Correspondent, which is a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or other similar institution that is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority or duly licensed by state licensing authority, if applicable. Seller and all other parties that have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and either (1) organized under the laws of such state, (2) qualified to do business in such state, (3) federal savings and loan associations or national banks having principal offices in such state or (4) not doing business in such state. Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced or will commence no more than sixty (60) days after the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were disbursed. The Mortgage Loan requires interest payable in arrears on the first day of the month. Each Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment that is sufficient (i) during the period before the first adjustment to the Mortgage interest rate, to amortize the original principal balance fully over the original term thereof (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agency Guidelines) and to pay interest at the related Mortgage interest rate, and (ii) during the period following each interest rate adjustment date in the case of each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, to amortize the outstanding principal balance fully as of the first day of such period over the then remaining term of such Mortgage Note and to pay interest at the related Mortgage interest rate. The Mortgage Note does not permit negative amortization. Interest on the Mortgage Note is calculated on the basis of a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Mortgage Loan is not a simple interest Mortgage Loan (meaning a Mortgage Loan on which interest is calculated daily). The Mortgage Loan does not require a balloon payment upon the maturity thereof. The Mortgage Note does not by its terms provide for the capitalization or forbearance of interest.

(n) Ownership. Immediately before Buyer’s payment of the Purchase Price, Seller was the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note. The Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, were not assigned or pledged by Seller and Seller had good and marketable title thereto, and Seller had full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to Buyer free and clear of any Lien, participation interest, equity, pledge or claim and had full right and authority subject to no interest or participation in, or agreement with any other Person to sell or otherwise transfer the Mortgage Loan. Following the

Exhibit B, Page 4

sale of the Mortgage Loan, Buyer will own such Mortgage Loan and the other Mortgage Assets free and clear of any Lien and shall have a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Mortgage Loan and the other Mortgage Assets then existing and thereafter arising in each case free and clear of any Lien. After the related Purchase Date, Seller will not have any right to modify or alter the terms of the sale of the Mortgage Loan to Buyer and Seller will not have any obligation or right to repurchase the Mortgage Loan, except as provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed to by Seller and Buyer. Seller has full right to sell, assign and transfer the Mortgage Loan without the consent of the related Mortgagor or any other Person.

(o) Transfer of Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is a MERS Designated Mortgage Loan. The original Mortgage was recorded in the appropriate jurisdictions wherein such recordation is necessary to perfect the Lien thereof as against creditors of Seller, or is in the process of being recorded. Seller has designated Buyer as the “Interim Funder” on the MERS® System with respect to such Mortgage Loan (or is in the process of designating Buyer and such designation shall be completed within five (5) Business Days after the Purchase Date) and unless otherwise authorized by Buyer, no Person is listed as interim funder on the MERS® System with respect to such Mortgage Loan.

(p) Hazard Insurance; Flood Insurance. All buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer generally acceptable under the Takeout Commitment and to prudent mortgage lending institutions against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are required in the Takeout Commitment pursuant to an insurance policy conforming to the requirements of Takeout Commitment and providing coverage in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property or (ii) the outstanding principal balance owing on the Mortgage Loan. All such insurance policies are in full force and effect and contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the originator of the Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. Before the Origination closing of the Mortgage Loan, Seller determined whether the Mortgaged Property is or will be located in a Special Flood Hazard Area using the Standard Flood Hazard Determination Form developed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Federal Emergency Management Agency and has properly recorded the basis for such determination on such form. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on a flood hazard map or flood insurance rate map issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the Flood Laws is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of the Takeout Commitment. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of Buyer upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor, any Subservicer or any prior servicer having engaged in, any act or omission that would impair the coverage of any such policy,

Exhibit B, Page 5

the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either, including no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(q) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA, CLTA or TLTA lender’s title insurance policy, acceptable to the applicable Agency or as mandated by applicable state law, if any, issued by a title insurer acceptable to the applicable Agency or qualified as required under applicable state law and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns the first priority of the lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and, if such Mortgage Loan is an adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment in the Mortgage interest rate or monthly payment. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception with a specific survey reading. Seller and its successors and assigns are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will inure to the benefit of Buyer and its assigns without any further act. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and Seller has not done, by act or omission, anything that would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy.

(r) Escrow Letter. There is, with respect to such Mortgage Loan, a valid and enforceable escrow letter duly executed by the Settlement Agent.

(s) Private Mortgage Insurance Policy. In the event that a private mortgage insurance policy is required by Buyer, the Mortgage Loan has a valid and transferable private mortgage insurance policy. Unless the private mortgage insurance policy for a Mortgage Loan was cancelled at the request of the Mortgagor or automatically terminated, in either case in accordance with applicable law, all premiums have been paid and all provisions of such private mortgage insurance policy have been and are being complied with. With respect to a purchase money Mortgage Loan, both the original appraised value and the purchase price are accurately depicted as such on Seller’s (or, as applicable, Subservicer’s) servicing system. Where a Mortgage Loan was closed as a streamlined refinance and a new appraisal was not required, the prior appraised value that was relied on in making the credit decision for the Mortgage Loan is accurately depicted on Seller’s (or, as applicable, Subservicer’s) servicing system. The Mortgage interest rate for the Mortgage Loan is net of any private mortgage insurance policy premium.

(t) Optional Insurance. No single payment credit life insurance or other optional insurance product that has been considered “predatory” by Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac has been obtained in connection with such Mortgage Loan. If such Mortgage Loan involved any type of optional insurance, such insurance was properly serviced including by use of the proper application

Exhibit B, Page 6

and collection of premiums, the maintenance of complete and accurate records, processing and payment of claims and the handling of correspondence. The Mortgage Loan does not involve an optional insurance product that was or is being provided free of charge to the Mortgagor.

(u) Insurance. All policies of required insurance, of whatever type, remain in full force and effect. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagors having engaged in, any act or omission that would impair the coverage validity or binding effect of any such policies. No action, inaction, or event has occurred and no state of facts exists or has existed that has resulted or will result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any applicable special hazard insurance policy, private mortgage insurance policy or bankruptcy bond, irrespective of the cause of such failure of coverage. In connection with the placement of any such insurance, no commission, fee, or other compensation has been or will be received by Seller or any Subservicer or any designee of Seller or any Subservicer or any corporation in which Seller, any Subservicer or any officer, director, or employee of Seller or any Subservicer had a financial interest at the time of placement of such insurance.

(v) Mortgaged Property Undamaged; No Condemnation Proceedings. As of the related Purchase Date, there are no uninsured casualty losses or casualty losses where coinsurance has been, or Seller has reason to believe will be, claimed by the insurance company or where the loss, exclusive of contents, is, or will be, greater than the recovery (less actual costs and expenses incurred in connection with such recovery) from the insurance carrier. No casualty insurance proceeds have been used to reduce Mortgage Loan balances or for any other purpose except to make repairs to the Mortgaged Property, except as allowed pursuant to applicable law and the Mortgage Loan documents. All damage with respect to which casualty insurance proceeds have been received by or through Seller has been properly repaired or is in the process of being repaired using such proceeds. There is no damage to the Mortgaged Property from waste, fire, windstorm, flood, tornado, earthquake or earth movement, hazardous or toxic substances, other casualty, or any other property related circumstances or conditions that would adversely affect the value or marketability of any Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, and adequate insurance is in place to cover all such events. There is no proceeding pending or, to the best of Seller’s knowledge, threatened for the partial or total condemnation of the Mortgaged Property that would adversely affect the Mortgage Loan.

(w) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements subject to the Mortgage that were considered in determining the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly within the project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those that are insured against by the title insurance policy referred to in section (q) above and all improvements on the Mortgaged Property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision laws and ordinances.

(x) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal or an underwriting property valuation using an automated valuation model of the related Mortgaged Property, or an Appraised Value Alternative, in each case, in a form acceptable to the applicable Agency or Approved Takeout Investor and Buyer and consistent with the applicable Agency Guidelines, and in the case of an appraisal, made and signed, before the approval of the Mortgage Loan application, by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by Seller, who had no interest, direct or indirect in the

As of the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property was used for commercial purposes, and since the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been used for commercial purposes; provided that Mortgaged Properties that contain a home office shall not be considered as being used for commercial purposes as long as the Mortgaged Property has not been altered for commercial purposes and is not storing any chemicals or raw materials other than those commonly used for homeowner repair, maintenance and/or household purposes. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a planned unit development (other than a de minimis planned unit development) such condominium or planned unit development project is acceptable to Buyer. The Mortgaged Property is not a Manufactured Home or a mobile home.

(bb) Environmental Matters.

No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with respect to the Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of Seller, any Subservicer or any other Person involved in taking applications for, offering, arranging, assisting a consumer in obtaining, making, underwriting or closing the Mortgage Loan or in the application for any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgagor, any builder or developer or any appraiser. The documents, instruments and agreements submitted for loan underwriting were not falsified and contain no untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the information and statements therein not misleading.

With respect to each Texas Refinance Loan that is a cash out refinancing, the related Mortgage Loan Documents state that the Mortgagor may prepay such Texas Refinance Loan in whole or in part without incurring a prepayment penalty. Neither Seller nor, if a Correspondent Loan, the Approved Correspondent, collects any such prepayment penalties in connection with any such Texas Refinance Loan.

The Mortgage Loan does not have an “annual percentage rate” or total “points and fees” payable by the related Mortgagor (as each such term is calculated under HOEPA) that exceed the thresholds set forth by HOEPA and its implementing regulations, including 12 C.F.R. § 226.32(a)(1)(i).

(nn) Higher Cost Products. The Mortgagor was not encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan product offered by the Mortgage Loan’s originator that is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy Mortgagors, unless at the time of the Mortgage Loan’s origination, such Mortgagor did not qualify taking into account such facts as the Mortgage Loan’s requirements and the Mortgagor’s credit history, income, assets and liabilities and debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost credit product then offered by the Mortgage Loan’s originator or any affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s originator. If, at the time of loan application, the Mortgagor may have qualified for a lower-cost credit product then offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s originator, the Mortgage Loan’s originator referred the Mortgagor’s application to such affiliate for underwriting consideration. For a Mortgagor who seeks financing through a Mortgage Loan originator’s higher-priced nonprime lending channel, the Mortgagor was directed towards or offered the Mortgage Loan originator’s standard mortgage line if the Mortgagor was able to qualify for one of the standard products.

(oo) Underwriting Methodology. With respect to delegated underwritten loans, the methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit for each Mortgage Loan does not rely solely on the extent of the Mortgagor’s equity in the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such extension of credit. The methodology employed objective criteria such as the Mortgagor’s income, assets and liabilities, to the proposed mortgage payment and, based on such methodology, the Mortgage Loan’s originator made a reasonable determination that at the time of origination the Mortgagor had the ability to make timely payments on the Mortgage Loan.

All fees and charges (including finance charges), whether or not financed, assessed, collected or to be collected in connection with the origination and servicing of each Mortgage Loan, have been disclosed in writing to the Mortgagor in accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation.

(qq) Prepayment Penalties. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition of a penalty upon a prepayment before maturity: (i) the Mortgage Loan provides some benefit to the Mortgagor (e.g., a rate or fee reduction) in exchange for accepting such prepayment penalty, (ii) the Mortgage Loan’s originator had a written policy of offering the Mortgagor the option of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require payment of such a penalty, (iii) the prepayment penalty was adequately disclosed to the Mortgagor in the mortgage loan documents pursuant to applicable state, local and federal law, and (v) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, neither Seller nor any Subservicer shall impose such prepayment premium in any instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated as the result of the Mortgagor’s default in making the loan payments.

(rr) Single Premium Credit Insurance Policies. The Mortgagor was not required to purchase, and no proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were paid towards the purchase of, a single premium credit insurance policy (e.g., life, mortgage, disability, accident, unemployment, or health insurance product) or debt cancellation agreement in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan or as a condition to the extension of credit. No proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used to purchase single premium credit insurance policies or debt cancellation agreements as part of the origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan; any breach of this representation shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the value of the Mortgage Loan and shall require a repurchase of the affected Mortgage Loan.

(ss) Origination Practices; Servicing. The origination practices used by Seller or, if a Correspondent Loan, the Approved Correspondent, and the collection and servicing practices used by Seller and any Subservicer with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been in all respects legal and customary in the mortgage origination and servicing industry and the collection and servicing practices used by Seller and any Subservicer have been consistent with customary servicing procedures. The Mortgage Loan satisfies, and has been originated and underwritten in accordance with, all applicable requirements of Seller’s underwriting guidelines. Seller has serviced the Mortgage Loan at all times since its origination.

(tt) Escrow Payments. With respect to escrow deposits and payments that Seller is entitled to collect, all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of Seller, and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All escrow payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law and the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage. As to any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an escrow, escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every

(uu) Interest on Escrows.

Seller or, if a Correspondent Loan, the Approved Correspondent, has delivered notification to the Mortgagor(s) under each Mortgage Loan of all adjustments resulting from such escrow analyses.

(ww) Escrow Holdbacks. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to outstanding escrow holdbacks except those specifically identified by Seller as defined in the Takeout Commitment.

(xx) Credit Reporting. To the extent, if any, that Seller or, if a Correspondent Loan, the Approved Correspondent, is required to do so by the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, Seller or such Approved Correspondent, as applicable, has caused to be fully furnished, in accordance with such Act and regulations, accurate and complete information (i.e., favorable and unfavorable) on its Mortgagor loan files to Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union Credit Information Company (three of the credit repositories), on a monthly basis; any breach of this representation shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the value of the Mortgage Loan and shall require a repurchase of the affected Mortgage Loan. Seller or, if a Correspondent Loan, the Approved Correspondent, has promptly corrected any discrepancies regarding consumer addresses of which Seller or such Approved Correspondent, as applicable, has received notice.

(yy) Interest Rate Adjustments. If applicable, with respect to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, all interest rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note.

The Loan constitutes a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats a defective obligation as a “qualified mortgage” or any substantially similar successor provision). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges payable upon a voluntary prepayment under the terms of the Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(2).

(jj) (36) Prepayment upon Condemnation. Seller has not modified the provisions of the Loan Documents which require that in the event of a taking of any portion of a Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account any planned restoration), the ratio of (A) the unpaid principal balance of the Loan to (B) the fair market value of the Property constituting the remaining Property is greater than 125%, Borrower can be required to apply the award with respect to such taking to prepay the Loan in the amount required to prevent the SBL Securitization from failing to meet applicable federal income tax qualification requirements or subject the SBL Securitization to any tax (“REMIC Provisions”) and such amount may not, to such extent, be used to restore the Property or be released to Borrower.

(A) upon payment in full of all amounts due under the Loan,

(B) in connection with a full or partial defeasance pursuant to provisions in the Loan Documents,

(C) unless such portion of the Property was not considered material for purposes of underwriting the Loan, was not included in the appraisal for the Property or does not generate income,

(D) upon the payment of a release price at least equal to the allocated loan amount or, if none, the appraised value of the released parcel and any related prepayment, or

(E) with respect to any Crossed Loans or if the Loan is secured by multiple Properties, in connection with the release of any cross-collateralization pursuant to provisions in the Loan Documents.

(ii) With respect to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) above, the Loan Documents provide that if the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Property immediately after the release of such portion of the Property from the lien of the Mortgage is not

Exhibit B-2, Page 13

equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal amount of the Loan, Borrower can be required to prepay the Loan in the amount equal to or greater than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

(ll) Origination and Servicing. The origination, servicing and collection practices used by Seller or, to Seller’s knowledge, any prior holder or servicer of the Loan have been in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and substantially in accordance with the practices of prudent multifamily mortgage lenders with respect to similar mortgage loans and in compliance with the Guide in all material respects.

(mm) Xxxxxxx Mac Eligible. The Loan was underwritten in accordance with the Guide, is eligible for SBL Securitization, and the representations, warranties, covenants and other obligations under Xxxxxxx Mac’s guidelines, including the Guide, are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety, except where Xxxxxxx Mac has expressly waived such requirements in writing respecting such Loan in the Commitment. Each Exception to the Representations and Warranties for each Loan is marked “X” in Schedule 1 to the Commitment and Seller has included a true and accurate description of each applicable Exception in the Commitment, along with any mitigants identified for that Exception. Seller represents and warrants that, if it identified additional Exception(s) for the Loan after the date of the Commitment, Seller documented those Exception(s) in an amendment to the Commitment that fully restated Schedule 1 of the Commitment and added the new Exception(s).

(nn) Compliance with the Guide. Each Loan complies with the Guide in all material respects.
