i
This RECEIVABLES POOLING AGREEMENT (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”) is made as of February 9, 2018, and effective as of February 12, 2018, by and between Ditech Agency Advance Depositor LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Depositor”), and Ditech Agency Advance Trust, a statutory trust organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Issuer”).
RECITALS
A. The Depositor is a special purpose Delaware limited liability company wholly owned by Ditech Financial LLC (“Ditech”). The Issuer is a statutory trust organized under the laws of Delaware. Ditech acts as the servicer under one or more certain ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac Servicing Agreements incorporating the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac Guide and one or more certain ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ Servicing Agreements incorporating the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae Guide (each, as it may be amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Servicing Agreement” and, collectively, the “Servicing Agreements”), and has the obligation to make Advances thereunder, has the right to collect the related Receivables in reimbursement of such Advances made by Ditech and the right to collect Receivables related to Advances previously made by Ditech (or any predecessor servicer). One or more Servicing Agreements relating to a Facility Eligible Pool will be identified on the Designated Servicing Agreement Schedule (each, as may be amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Designated Servicing Agreement” and, collectively, the “Designated Servicing Agreements”) and the related Facility Eligible Pools in which Ditech acts as servicer (each, a “Designated Pool” and collectively, the “Designated Pools”) will be designated for inclusion under this Agreement pursuant to a Receivables Sale Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, among Ditech, the Depositor, and Ditech Holding Corporation (formerly known as ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Investment Management Corp.) (as may be amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Sale Agreement”), the “Receivables Sale Agreement” referenced therein and the Indenture (as defined below).
B. The Issuer, Ditech, as servicer and as Administrator (in such capacity, the “Administrator”), ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, N.A., as Indenture Trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”), as Calculation Agent, as Paying Agent and as Securities Intermediary, and Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), have entered into an Indenture (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time and including any indenture supplement, the “Indenture”), dated as of even date herewith, pursuant to which the Issuer shall be permitted to issue different Series of notes (the “Notes”) from time to time, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture.
C. Upon its disbursement of an Advance with respect to a Designated Pool pursuant to a Designated Servicing Agreement, Ditech, as servicer, becomes the beneficiary of a contractual right to be reimbursed for such Advance in accordance with the terms of the related Designated Servicing Agreement. Ditech desires to sell, assign, transfer, convey and contribute to the Depositor all its contractual rights to be reimbursed for each Advance disbursed by Ditech (or any predecessor servicer to the extent that Ditech acquires the Advances), as servicer, from the date hereof through
1
the Receivables Sale Termination Date in respect of Designated Pools, under the Designated Servicing Agreements (in any case, which Advance has not been previously reimbursed) (any right to reimbursement in respect of any such Advance, a “Receivable” and, collectively, the “Receivables”). The Depositor, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will sell and/or contribute, assign, transfer and convey to the Issuer all Receivables acquired by the Depositor from Ditech, as receivables seller, immediately upon the Depositor’s acquisition of such Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Sale Agreement.
D. The Notes issued by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture will be collateralized by the Aggregate Receivables and related property and certain monies in respect thereof now owned and to be hereafter acquired by the Issuer.
E. In consideration of each transfer by the Depositor to the Issuer of the Transferred Assets on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to pay to the Depositor a purchase price equal to the fair market value thereof on the related Sale Date. To the extent the portion of the purchase price actually paid in cash by the Issuer for the Transferred Assets is less than 100% of the fair market value thereof, the balance of the purchase price shall be paid on each Sale Date by an increase in the value of the Owner Trust Certificate of the Issuer, 100% of which is held by the Depositor, in an amount equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price of such Receivable exceeds the portion of the cash purchase price actually paid therefor.

4
(including “proceeds” as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in all applicable jurisdictions (the “UCC”)), together with all rights of the Depositor to enforce such Initial Receivables and Additional Receivables (collectively, “the “Transferred Assets”). Until the Receivables Sale Termination Date, the Depositor shall, automatically and without any further action on its part, sell and/or contribute, assign, transfer and convey to the Issuer, on each Business Day, each Additional Receivable (other than any Excepted Receivable) not previously transferred to the Issuer and the Issuer shall purchase each such Additional Receivable together with all of the other Transferred Assets related to such Receivable.

(c) Removal of Designated Servicing Agreements and Receivables. On any date on or after the satisfaction of all conditions specified in Section 2.1(c) of the Indenture, the Depositor may remove a Designated Servicing Agreement or a Designated Pool from the Designated Servicing Agreement Schedule for purposes of this Agreement (each such Servicing Agreement or Designated Pool so removed, a “Removed Servicing Agreement” and a “Removed Pool”, respectively).

The Depositor shall, at its own expense, indicate in its books and records (including its computer records) that the Receivables in respect of a Designated Pool arising under each Designated Servicing Agreement and the related Transferred Assets have been sold and/or contributed, assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Issuer in accordance with this Agreement. The Depositor shall not alter the indication referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Receivable during the term of this Agreement, (except in accordance with Section 10(b)). If a third party, including a potential purchaser of a Receivable, should inquire
5
as to the status of the Receivables, the Depositor shall promptly indicate to such third party that the Receivables have been sold and/or contributed, assigned, transferred and conveyed and the Depositor (except in accordance with Section 10(b)) shall not claim any right, title or interest (including, but not limited to ownership interest) therein.

In the case of breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Section 4(a) by the Depositor with respect to any Receivable on the Sale Date therefor, unless such breach shall have been cured or waived within thirty (30) days after the earlier to occur of the discovery of breach or the Depositor’s receipt of written notice of such breach by the Depositor from the Administrative Agent, Ditech, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, such that, in the case of a representation and warranty, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on such day, and the Depositor shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee an officer’s certificate describing the nature of such breach and the manner in which the relevant representation and warranty became true and correct or the breach was otherwise cured, the Depositor shall either repurchase the affected Receivables or indemnify the Issuer and its assignees (including the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and each of their respective assignees) against and hold the Issuer and its assignees (including the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and each of their respective assignees) harmless from any cost, liability and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, whether incurred in enforcement proceedings between the parties or otherwise, incurred as a result of, or arising from, such breach (each such repurchase or indemnification amount to be paid hereunder, an “Indemnity Payment”), the amount of which shall equal the Receivable Balance of any affected Receivable. This Section 5 sets forth the exclusive remedy for a breach of representation, warranty or covenant pertaining to a Receivable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant by the Depositor set forth in Section 4(a) shall not be waived by the Issuer under any circumstances without the consent of the Administrative Agent, which in any case will not consent to waive such representation, warranty or covenant without the consent of the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes.
Section 6. Termination.
This Agreement (a) may not be terminated prior to the termination of the Indenture and (b) may be terminated at any time thereafter by either party upon written notice to the other party.

Section 7. General Covenants of Depositor.
The Depositor covenants and agrees that from the date of this Agreement until the termination of the Indenture:
(a) Bankruptcy. The Depositor agrees that it shall comply with Section 12(l). The Depositor has not engaged in and does not expect to engage in a business for which its remaining property represents an unreasonably small capitalization. The Depositor will not transfer any of the Aggregate Receivables with an intent to hinder, delay or defraud any Person.
(b) Legal Existence. The Depositor shall do or cause to be done all things necessary on its part to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence in the jurisdiction of its formation, and to maintain each of its licenses, approvals, registrations and qualifications in all jurisdictions in which its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such licenses, approvals, registrations or qualifications, except for failures which, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial conditions, operations or the ability of the Depositor or the Issuer to perform its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents.
(c) Compliance With Laws. The Depositor shall comply with all laws, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental authority applicable to its operation, the noncompliance with which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operations or the ability of Ditech, as receivables seller and servicer, the Depositor or the Issuer to perform their obligations hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents.
(d) Taxes. The Depositor shall pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Depositor or upon its income and profits, or upon any of its property or any part thereof, before the same shall become in default; provided that the Depositor shall not be required to pay and discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, or so long as the failure to pay any such tax, assessment, charge or levy would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations hereunder. The Depositor shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect to any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so contested.
(e) Keeping of Records and Books of Account. The Depositor shall maintain accurate, complete and correct documents, books, records and other information which is reasonably necessary for the collection of all Aggregate Receivables (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit the prompt identification of each new Receivable and all collections of, and adjustments to, each existing Receivable).
(f) Ownership. The Depositor will take all necessary action to establish and maintain, irrevocably in the Issuer, legal and equitable title to the Aggregate Receivables and the related Transferred Assets, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (including, without limitation, the filing of all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) in all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect the Issuer’s interest in such Aggregate
13
Receivables and related Transferred Assets and such other action to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee (as the Depositor’s assignee) may reasonably request).
(g) Reliance on Separateness. The Depositor acknowledges that the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders are entering into the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in reliance upon the Depositor’s and Issuer’s identity as a legal entity that is separate from Ditech. Therefore, from and after the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor will take all reasonable steps to maintain each of the Depositor’s and Issuer’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it manifest to third parties that each of the Depositor and the Issuer is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of Ditech. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to the other covenants set forth herein, the Depositor (i) will not hold itself out to third parties as liable for the debts of the Issuer nor purport to own the Aggregate Receivables and other related Transferred Assets and (ii) will take all other actions necessary on its part to ensure that the facts and assumptions regarding it set forth in the opinion issued by Sidley Austin LLP, dated the Closing Date, relating to substantive consolidation issues remain true and correct, in all material respects, at all times.
(h) Name Change, Offices and Records. In the event the Depositor makes any change to its name (within the meaning of Section 9-507(c) of any applicable enactment of the UCC), type or jurisdiction of organization or location of its books and records the Depositor shall notify the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee thereof and (except with respect to a change of location of books and records) shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee not later than thirty (30) days after the effectiveness of such change (i) such financing statements (Forms UCC1 and UCC3) which the Indenture Trustee (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) may reasonably request to reflect such name change, or change in type or jurisdiction of organization, (ii) if the Indenture Trustee shall so request, an opinion of outside counsel to the Depositor, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, as to the perfection and priority of the Issuer’s security interest in the Aggregate Receivables in such event, (iii) such other documents and instruments that the Indenture Trustee (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) on behalf of the Noteholders may reasonably request in connection therewith and shall take all other steps to ensure that the Issuer continues to have a first priority, perfected security interest in the Aggregate Receivables and the related Transferred Assets.
(i) Location of Jurisdiction of Organization and Records. In the case of a change in the jurisdiction of organization of the Depositor, or in the case of a change in the “location” of the Depositor for purposes of Section 9-307 of the UCC, the Depositor must take all actions necessary or reasonably requested by the Issuer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee to amend its existing financing statements and continuation statements, and file additional financing statements and to take any other steps reasonably requested by the Issuer, the Administrative Agent or the Indenture Trustee to further perfect or evidence the rights, claims or security interests of any of the Issuer or any assignee or beneficiary of the Issuer’s rights under this Agreement, including the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders under any of the Transaction Documents.
Section 8. Grant Clause.
14
It is the intention of the parties hereto that each transfer and assignment contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute an absolute sale or contribution, as applicable, of the related Receivables from the Depositor to the Issuer and that the Aggregate Receivables shall not be part of Depositor’s estate or otherwise be considered property of the Depositor in the event of the bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, liquidation, conservatorship or similar proceeding relating to the Depositor or any of its Property. However, if such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that the rights and obligations of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Accordingly, the Depositor hereby grants to the Issuer a first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, the Aggregate Receivables and the other Transferred Assets to secure payment of a debt equal to the purchase price for such Aggregate Receivables and other Transferred Assets. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. The Depositor will, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Aggregate Receivables and the other Transferred Assets to secure payment or performance of an obligation, such security interest would be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Depositor has made all such initial filings.
The Depositor hereby authorizes the Issuer and its assignees, successors and designees to file one or more UCC financing statements, financing statement amendments and continuation statements to perfect the security interest described herein.
Section 9. Grant by Issuer.
The Issuer shall have the right, upon notice to but without the consent of the Depositor, to Grant, in whole or in part, its interest under this Agreement with respect to the Receivables to the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee then shall succeed to all rights of the Issuer under this Agreement. All references to the Issuer in this Agreement shall be deemed to include its assignee or designee, specifically including the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee.
Section 10. Protection of Indenture Trustee’s Security Interest in Trust Estate.
(a) The Depositor shall maintain accounts and records as to each Receivable accurately and in sufficient detail to permit the reader thereof to know at any time following reasonable prior notice delivered to the Depositor, the status of such Receivable, including payments and recoveries made and payments owing. The Schedule of Receivables has been delivered to the Indenture Trustee and shall remain in its possession or control.
(b) The Depositor will maintain its computer records so that, from and after the Grant of the security interest under the Indenture, the Depositor’s master computer records (including any back-up archives) that refer to any Receivables indicate that the Receivables are owned by the Issuer and pledged to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders. Indication of the Indenture Trustee’s interest in a Receivable shall be deleted from or modified on the Depositor’s records when, and only when, the Receivable has been paid in full or released from the lien of the Indenture pursuant to the Indenture.
15
Section 11. Limited Recourse.
No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against (a) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (b) any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed. Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, the Notes, any other Transaction Documents or otherwise, the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes, the Indenture, this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate, and following realization of the Trust Estate and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, none of the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee or any of the other parties to the Transaction Documents shall be entitled to take any further steps to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of the Notes, the Indenture or this Agreement or for any action or inaction of the Issuer against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, stockholder or incorporator of the Issuer or any of their successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Notes or this Agreement. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Trust Estate for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Trust Estate or (ii) save as specifically provided therein, constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by the Indenture. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall not, subject to Section 12(l) hereof, limit the right of any Person, to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or this Agreement, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Person or entity.
Section 12. Miscellaneous.
(a) Amendment. Except as permitted expressly by the Indenture or as otherwise set forth herein, as applicable, this Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing, signed by the Depositor and the Issuer, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, supported by the delivery of an Issuer Tax Opinion. In addition, so long as the Notes are outstanding, this Agreement may not be amended without, collectively (x) (i) the consent of the Majority Noteholders of all Outstanding Notes that are not Variable Funding Notes and (ii) the consent of the Series Required Noteholders for each Series of Variable Funding Notes, or (y) (i) the amendment is for a purpose for which the Indenture could be amended without any Noteholder consent pursuant to Section 12.1 thereof and (ii) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee an officer’s certificate to the effect that the Depositor reasonably believes that such amendment could not have a material Adverse Effect on any Outstanding Notes and is not reasonably expected to have a material Adverse Effect at any time in the future. Any such amendment requested by the Depositor shall be at its own expense. Amendments shall require notice to Note Rating Agencies, if any, as described in Section 11(a) of the Receivables Sale Agreement.
16
(b) Binding Nature; Assignment. The covenants, agreements, rights and obligations contained in this Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Depositor and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Issuer, and all persons claiming by, through or under the Issuer.
(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions, express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to the subject matter hereof. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.
(d) RESERVED.
(e) Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited, unenforceable or not authorized in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition, unenforceability or non‑authorization without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, enforceability or legality of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
(f) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES HERETO, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).
(g) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN AN LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
(h) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts and all so executed shall constitute one agreement binding on all parties hereto, notwithstanding that all the parties have not signed the original or the same counterpart. Any counterpart hereof signed by a party against whom enforcement of this Agreement is sought shall be admissible into evidence as an original hereof to prove the contents thereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
(i) Indulgences; No Waivers. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or future exercise of the same or of any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver
17
of any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.
(j) Headings Not to Affect Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and they shall not be used in the interpretation hereof.
(k) Benefits of Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement and their successors hereunder, any benefit of any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under this Agreement.
