h.              Haircut.  With respect to each Transaction the subject of which are Wet Mortgage Loans, Seller shall ensure that there are sufficient funds on deposit in the Over/Under Account such that following the withdrawal of the Haircut related to such Wet Mortgage Loans by Buyer, the balance of the Over/Under Account is equal to or greater than the Minimum Required Balance.

i.                  Over/Under Account.

(1)         Minimum Balance.  Seller shall at all times maintain a margin balance in the Over/Under Account of not less than the Minimum Required Balance, which account shall be used to assist in settling the Transactions and any other obligations under this Agreement.  Buyer shall not be required to segregate and hold funds deposited by or on behalf of Seller in the Over/Under Account separate and apart from Buyer’s own funds or funds deposited by or held for others.  Interest shall accrue on amounts in the Over/Under Account at a rate equal to the Over/Under Account Interest Rate.

(2)         Deposits.

i.                  Seller shall deposit margin in the form of funds in the Over/Under Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3(h) and Section 3(i)(1).

ii.               Buyer shall credit to the Over/Under Account all amounts in excess of those amounts due to Buyer in accordance with the Program Agreements on the date Buyer receives or has received both (1) a payment by Seller or an Approved Investor pursuant to a Purchase Commitment and (2) a Purchase Advice relating to such payment without discrepancy; provided, however, that funds and Purchase Advices received by Buyer after the Transaction Request Deadline, shall be deemed to have

26

been received on the next Business Day. Buyer shall use reasonable efforts to notify Seller if there is a discrepancy between a wire transfer and the related Purchase Advice, and thereafter, Seller shall notify Buyer as to whether Buyer should accept such settlement payment despite the discrepancy between the amount received and the related Purchase Advice; provided, however, that if an Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer is not obligated to receive notification from Seller prior to accepting any amounts received and releasing the related Repurchase Assets.

iii.            Buyer shall deliver to Seller via facsimile or make available to Seller via the Internet within one (1) Business Day following settlement of a Transaction, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, a settlement statement, which includes an explanation of all amounts credited by Buyer to the Over/Under Account to settle the Transaction.

(3)         Withdrawals.

i.                  If the amount credited to the Over/Under Account creates a balance in excess of the Minimum Required Balance pursuant to Section 3(i)(1) above, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Seller may (A) to the extent Seller has submitted documentation to and approved by Buyer in its sole discretion, receive payment of such excess funds at the end of each Business Day or (B) submit a written request to Buyer for return or payment of such excess funds.  If any such request is received by Buyer prior to 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on a Business Day, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to wire such requested excess funds to Seller by the end of such Business Day and in no event no later than two (2) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of such request.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 3(i)(3)(i) to the contrary, Buyer reserves the right to reject any request for excess funds from the Over/Under Account if Buyer determines that such excess funds shall be used to satisfy Seller’s outstanding obligations under this Agreement or are subject to other rights as provided in this Agreement.

ii.               Buyer may, from time to time and without separate authorization by Seller or notice to Seller, withdraw funds from the Over/Under Account to settle

27

amounts owed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or to otherwise satisfy Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation:

A.                        with respect to any Transaction the subject of which is a Wet Mortgage Loan, to deliver the Haircut to the Closing Agent;

B.                        RESERVED;

C.                        to pay itself any Price Differential on a Purchase Price that is due and owing;

D.                        to Seller as provided in Section 3(i)(3)(i);

E.                         RESERVED;

F.                          to satisfy a Margin Deficit as provided for in Section 6;

G.                        in the exercise of Buyer’s or its Affiliates rights under Section 6(c) or Section 16(f).

(4)         Failure to Maintain Balance.  If, at any time, Seller fails to maintain in the Over/Under Account the Minimum Required Balance hereunder, in addition to any other rights and remedies that Buyer may have against Seller, Buyer shall have the right to immediately stop entering into Transactions with Seller until the time that funds are deposited into or held in the Over/Under Account to comply with such Minimum Required Balance hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that should the balance in the Over/Under Account become negative, Seller will continue to owe Buyer accrued interest as provided herein.

j.                 Return of Purchase Price.  If a Wet Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction is not closed on the same day on which the Purchase Price was funded, Seller shall immediately return, or cause to be immediately returned, the Purchase Price to Buyer by wire transfer in accordance with Buyer’s wire instructions set forth on Exhibit A.  Further, Seller shall pay Buyer all fees and any Price Differential thereon immediately upon notification from Buyer; provided, however, that Price Differential shall continue to accrue until the Purchase Price is returned to Buyer.

k.              Approved Payees.

(1)         Closing Agents.  In order for a Closing Agent to be designated an Approved Payee with respect to any Purchase Price for Wet Mortgage Loans, Seller shall submit or shall cause to be submitted to Buyer evidence that the Irrevocable Closing Instructions, in the applicable form and

28

signed by Underlying Repurchase Counterparty, Seller and Buyer, have been delivered to such Closing Agent and one of the following documents:

i.                  a valid blanket Closing Protection Letter, in a form acceptable to Buyer, issued to Underlying Repurchase Counterparty, Seller or Buyer by the title company, which is issuing the title insurance policy that covers the related Purchased Mortgage Loan and is an Acceptable Title Insurance Company, that covers closings conducted by the Closing Agent in the jurisdiction where this closing will take place and if applicable, an assignment to Buyer of such Closing Protection Letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto; or

ii.               a valid Closing Protection Letter, in a form acceptable to Buyer, issued to Underlying Repurchase Counterparty, Seller or Buyer by the title company, which is issuing the title insurance policy that covers the related Purchased Mortgage Loans and is an Acceptable Title Insurance Company, that covers the closing of this specific Purchased Mortgage Loan and if applicable, an assignment to Buyer of such Closing Protection Letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto; or

iii.            with respect to those jurisdictions outlined in the Handbook for which Closing Protection Letters are not available or are limited in their applicability, any other documents Buyer may require, including without limitation, a duly executed, valid and enforceable assignment to Buyer of Underlying Repurchase Counterparty’s or Seller’s rights, as applicable, under its Fidelity Insurance.

(2)         Warehouse Lenders.  In order for a warehouse lender to be designated an Approved Payee with respect to any Purchase Price, Seller shall submit to Buyer a written request, including the name and address of the warehouse lender, demonstrating a need for such designation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer reserves the right to refuse to designate any warehouse lender as an Approved Payee, or, alternatively, to require additional terms and conditions in order for Buyer to pay a Purchase Price to the warehouse lender.

(3)         Approval Process.  Buyer shall review the applicable documents and notify Seller within two (2) Business Days as to whether such Closing Agent or warehouse lender has been designated by Buyer to be an Approved Payee with respect to such Purchase Price.  Buyer may withdraw its approval of any Closing Agent or warehouse lender as an Approved Payee if Buyer becomes aware of any facts or circumstances at any time related to such

29

Closing Agent or warehouse lender which Buyer determines materially and adversely affects the Closing Agent or warehouse lender or otherwise makes the Closing Agent or warehouse lender unacceptable as an Approved Payee.

l.                  Temporary Increase.  Seller may request a temporary increase of the Aggregate Transaction Limit (a “Temporary Increase”) by submitting to Buyer an executed request for Temporary Increase in the form of Exhibit L hereto (a “Request for Temporary Increase”), setting forth the requested increased Aggregate Transaction Limit, the effective date and time of such Temporary Increase and the date and time on which such Temporary Increase shall terminate.  Buyer may from time to time, in its sole and absolute discretion, consent to such Temporary Increase, which consent shall be in writing as evidenced by Buyer’s delivery to Seller of a countersigned Request for Temporary Increase.  At any time that a Temporary Increase is in effect (and only for such time as such Temporary Increase is in effect), the Aggregate Transaction Limit shall be increased by the amount of the Temporary Increase for all purposes of this Agreement and all calculations and provisions relating to the Aggregate Transaction Limit shall refer to such increased amount.

4.                                      Repurchase

a.              Payment of Repurchase Price.  The Repurchase Price for each Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be payable in full and by wire transfer in accordance with Buyer’s wire instructions set forth on Exhibit A upon each related Repurchase Date.  Such obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan (but liquidation or foreclosure proceeds received by Buyer shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan on each Price Differential Payment Date except as otherwise provided herein).  While it is anticipated that Seller will repurchase each Purchased Mortgage Loan on its related Repurchase Date, Seller may repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Loan hereunder on demand without any pre-payment penalty or premium.

b.              Effect of Payment of Repurchase Price.  On the Repurchase Date (or such other date on which the Repurchase Price is paid by Seller), termination of the related Transaction will be effected by the repurchase by Seller or its designee of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer, or transfer of additional Mortgage Loan(s) and all of Buyer’s rights, title and interests therein shall then be conveyed to Seller or its designee. Seller is obligated to obtain the Mortgage File and other documents from Custodian at Seller’s expense on the Repurchase Date.

c.               Future Transactions.  To the extent that (i) the Repurchase Date shall have occurred, (ii) there exists no Default, (iii) Seller wishes to enter into a new Transaction with respect to the related Mortgage Loans, (iv) such Mortgage Loans have an Asset Value in excess of zero and (v) the Purchase Price shall not cause the aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions to exceed the Aggregate

30

Transaction Limit or Committed Amount nor cause a Margin Deficit, then Seller may request a new Transaction in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 hereof and Buyer shall enter the same.

d.              Payments Pursuant to Sale to Approved Investors.  Seller shall direct each Approved Investor purchasing a Purchased Mortgage Loan to pay directly to Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the full purchase price, without set-off, as set forth in the applicable Purchase Commitment.  In addition, Seller shall provide Buyer with a Purchase Advice relating to such payment.  Seller shall not direct the Approved Investor to pay to Buyer an amount less than the full purchase price set forth in the applicable Purchase Commitment or modify or otherwise change the wire instructions for payment of the purchase price provided to Approved Investor by Buyer.  Buyer shall apply all amounts received for the account of Seller in accordance with Section 7(b) and credit all amounts due Seller to the Over/Under Account in accordance with Section 3(i)(2)(i).  Buyer may reject any amount received from an Approved Investor and not release the related Purchased Mortgage Loan if (a) Buyer does not receive a Purchase Advice in respect of any wire transfer, (b) Buyer does not receive the full purchase price, without set-off, as set forth in the applicable Purchase Commitment or (c) the amount received is not sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price.  Alternatively, in lieu of rejecting an amount received by Buyer from an Approved Investor, at Buyer’s option, if the amount received from the Approved Investor does not equal or exceed the Repurchase Price, Buyer may accept the amount received from the Approved Investor and deduct the remaining amounts owed by Seller from the Over/Under Account or demand payment of such remaining amount from Seller.  If Seller receives any funds intended for Buyer, Seller shall segregate and hold such funds in trust for Buyer and immediately pay to Buyer all such amounts by wire transfer of immediately available funds together with providing Buyer with a settlement statement for the transaction.

e.               Repurchase Acceleration Events.  The occurrence of any of the following events shall be a Repurchase Acceleration Event with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan:

(1)         Buyer has determined that the Purchased Mortgage Loan is a Defective Mortgage Loan;

(2)         thirty (30) calendar days elapse from the date the Mortgage Loan Documents relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loan were delivered to an Approved Investor pursuant to a Bailee Letter and such Approved Investor has not returned the Mortgage Loan Documents or purchased the Purchased Mortgage Loan, unless an extension is granted by Buyer;

(3)         ten (10) Business Days elapse from the date a Mortgage Loan Document relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loan was delivered to Seller for correction or completion or for servicing purposes, without being returned to Buyer or its designee;

31

(4)         Seller fails to deliver to Buyer the related Mortgage Loan Documents within the Wet Mortgage Loan Maximum Dwell Time or any Mortgage Loan Document delivered to Buyer, upon examination by Buyer, is found not to be in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement or the related Purchase Commitment and is not corrected within the Wet Mortgage Loan Maximum Dwell Time;

(5)         Regardless of whether a Purchased Mortgage Loan is a Defective Mortgage Loan, a foreclosure or similar type of proceeding is initiated with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loan; or

(6)         the further sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loan by Seller.

f.                Reduction of Asset Value as Alternative Remedy.  In lieu of requiring full repayment of the Repurchase Price upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Acceleration Event, Buyer may elect to reduce the Asset Value of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan (to as low as zero) and accordingly require a full or partial repayment of such Repurchase Price or the delivery of other funds or collateral, which additional assets shall be “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as such terms are defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5) and (8), respectively.

g.               Designation as Noncompliant Mortgage Loan as Alternative Remedy.  In lieu of requiring full repayment of the Repurchase Price upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Acceleration Event, Buyer may elect to deem the related Purchased Mortgage Loan a Noncompliant Mortgage Loan, provided that (a) after such Purchased Mortgage Loan is deemed to be a Noncompliant Mortgage Loan, the aggregate original Asset Value of all Noncompliant Mortgage Loans does not exceed the Type Sublimit for Noncompliant Mortgage Loans; (b) the Asset Value of the Noncompliant Mortgage Loan is greater than the Repurchase Price or Seller provides additional Purchased Assets or repays part of the Repurchase Price as provided in Section 6 in each case as a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5); and (c) Seller delivers to Buyer all documentation relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loan reasonably requested by Buyer.

5.                                      Price Differential.

a.              On each Business Day that a Transaction is outstanding, the Pricing Rate shall be reset and, unless otherwise agreed, the accrued and unpaid Price Differential shall be settled in cash on each related Price Differential Payment Date.  Two Business Days prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Buyer shall give Seller written or electronic notice of the amount of the Price Differential due on such Price Differential Payment Date.  On the Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer the Price Differential for such Price Differential Payment Date (along with any other amounts to be paid pursuant to Sections 7 and 35 hereof), by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

32

b.              If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential by 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the related Price Differential Payment Date, with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer (in addition to, and together with, the amount of such Price Differential) interest on the unpaid Repurchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Post Default Rate until the Price Differential is received in full by Buyer.

6.                                      Margin Maintenance

a.              If Buyer shall determine at any time that (x) the Asset Value of a Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction is less than the related Repurchase Price or (y) the aggregate Asset Value of all Purchased Mortgage Loans for all such Transactions is less than the aggregate Repurchase Price (in either case, a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may, at its sole option and by notice to Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Margin Call”), require Seller to either:

(1)         transfer to Buyer or its designee cash or, at Buyer’s sole option, Eligible Mortgage Loans approved by Buyer (“Additional Purchased Assets”) so that the individual Asset Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loan or the aggregate Asset Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, including any such cash or Additional Purchased Assets, will thereupon equal or exceed the individual Repurchase Price for the Transaction or the aggregate Repurchase Price for all Transactions; or

(2)         pay one or more Repurchase Prices in an amount sufficient to reduce the outstanding Repurchase Prices in an amount equal to or below the Asset Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loan(s).

b.              If Buyer delivers a Margin Call to Seller on or prior to 9:30 a.m. (Pacific time) on any Business Day, then Seller shall transfer cash or Additional Purchased Assets to Buyer no later than 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time) that same day.  If Buyer delivers a Margin Call to Seller after 9:30 a.m. (Pacific time) on any Business Day, Seller shall be required to transfer cash or Additional Purchased Assets no later than 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the next subsequent Business Day.  Notice of a Margin Call may be provided by Buyer to Seller electronically or in writing, such as via electronic mail or posting such notice on Buyer’s customer website(s).

c.               The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. Seller and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

d.              In the event that a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Buyer may retain any funds received by it to which Seller would

33

otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) shall be held by Buyer against the related Margin Deficit and (ii) may be applied by Buyer against any Purchased Mortgage Loan for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied.  In addition, Buyer may withdraw from the Over/Under Account amounts equal to any Margin Deficit which is not otherwise satisfied by Seller within the time frames provided for in this Section 6.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.

e.               Buyer shall have the right to determine the Asset Value of each Purchased Mortgage Loan on a daily basis.

7.                                      Income Payments

a.              The Collection Account shall be established by Seller and Servicer at Bank of America, N.A. Buyer shall have sole dominion and control over the Collection Account.  If Income is paid in respect of any Purchased Mortgage Loan during the term of a Transaction, such Income shall be the property of Buyer and shall be deposited in the Collection Account on a daily basis.  Seller shall and shall cause Servicer and Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to deposit all Income received to the Collection Account in accordance with Section 12(c) hereof.

b.              Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be held therein until the next Price Differential Payment Date.  Seller shall withdraw any funds on deposit in the Collection Account and distribute such funds as follows:

(1)         first, to Buyer in payment of any accrued and unpaid Price Differential, to the extent not paid by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 5;

(2)         second, without limiting the rights of Buyer under Section 6 of this Agreement, to Buyer, in the amount of any unpaid Margin Deficit;

(3)         third, to Buyer in reduction of the Repurchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, an amount equal to the full or partial prepayments of principal received on or with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans;

(4)         fourth, to the payment of all other costs and fees payable to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; and

(5)         fifth, to Seller, any remaining amounts.

c.               In the event that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, notwithstanding any provision set forth herein, Seller shall and shall cause the Servicer to remit all Income received with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan into the Collection Account or such other account and on such other date or dates as Buyer notifies Seller in writing.

34

d.              Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 7, within two (2) Business Days of receipt by Seller or Underlying Repurchase Counterparty of any prepayment of principal in full, with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall remit or cause to be remitted such amount to Buyer and Buyer shall immediately apply any such amount received by Buyer to reduce the amount of the Repurchase Price due upon termination of the related Transaction.

e.               Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments hereunder must be received by Buyer on the date when due and shall be made in United States dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with Buyer’s wire instructions set forth on Exhibit A.  All payments made by or on behalf of Seller with respect to any Transaction shall be applied to Seller’s account in accordance with Section 3(i)(2)(ii) and Section 7(b) and shall be made in such amounts as may be necessary in order that all such payments after withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, levies, imports, duties or other similar charges of whatsoever nature imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority hereof, other than any taxes on or measured by the net income of Buyer pursuant to the state, federal and local tax laws of the jurisdiction where Buyer’s principal office or offices or lending office or offices are located, compensate Buyer for any additional cost or reduced amount receivable of making or maintaining Transactions as a result of such taxes, imports, duties or other charges. All payments to be made by or on behalf of Seller with respect to any Transaction shall be made without set-off, counterclaim or other defense.

f.                Notification of Payment.  Seller shall provide Buyer not fewer than one (1) Business Day prior written notice if Seller or an Approved Investor intends to remit a payment to Buyer equal to or greater than ten million ($10,000,000) dollars.

g.               Authorization to Debit.  In addition to any other authorizations to and rights of Buyer hereunder, Seller hereby expressly authorizes Buyer to debit any account maintained by Seller with any depository institution into which any funds related to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or related Repurchase Assets have been deposited (other than escrow accounts maintained for the benefit of the related Mortgagors), including without limitation, any operating, settlement or custodial account, for any and all amounts due Buyer hereunder.

h.              Book Account.  Buyer and Seller shall maintain an account on their respective books of all Transactions entered into between Buyer and Seller and for which the Repurchase Price has not yet been paid.  As a courtesy to Seller, Buyer shall provide such information to Seller via the Internet or by telephone or facsimile, if Seller is unable to access the information via the Internet.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be responsible for maintaining its own book account and records of Transactions entered into with Buyer, amounts due to Buyer in connection with such Transactions and for paying such amounts when due.  Failure of Buyer to provide Seller with information regarding any Transaction

35

shall not excuse Seller’s timely performance of all obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, payment obligations under this Agreement.

Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 8.

d.              Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase Assets (including without limitation its security interest in the Purchased Mortgage Loans and any other collateral purchased by Seller in an Underlying Repurchase Transaction and in which a security interest is granted to Buyer pursuant to this Section 8) are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer under this Agreement. Seller agrees that it will provide notice of any action it takes with respect to the Repurchase Assets at any time any such Repurchase Assets are owned by or pledged to Buyer under this Agreement.

9.                                      Payment and Transfer

Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, all transfers of funds to be made by Seller hereunder shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Buyer at the account as Buyer shall specify to Seller in writing.  Seller acknowledges that it has no rights of withdrawal from the foregoing account.  All Purchased Mortgage Loans transferred by one party hereto to the other party shall be in the case of a purchase by Buyer in suitable form for transfer or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank and such other documentation as Buyer may reasonably request.  All Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be evidenced by a Trust Receipt.  Any Repurchase Price received by Buyer after 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day.

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

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

62

notice to Seller and Guarantor of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

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

The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Buyer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

d.              Buyer shall have the right to direct all servicers and subservicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to remit all collections thereon to Buyer, and if any such payments are received by Seller, Seller shall not commingle the amounts received with other funds of Seller and shall promptly pay them over to Buyer.  Buyer shall also have the right to terminate any one or all of the servicers and subservicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans with or without cause.  In addition, Buyer shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Mortgage Loans and liquidate all Repurchase Assets.  Such disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans may be, at Buyer’s option, on either a servicing-released or a servicing-retained basis.  Buyer shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Mortgage Loans with respect to any such disposition thereof.  Buyer may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans.  The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and liquidation of the Repurchase Assets shall not be

63

considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof.  Seller agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Buyer to dispose of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets.  Buyer shall be entitled to place the Purchased Mortgage Loans in a pool for issuance of mortgage-backed securities at the then-prevailing price for such securities and to sell such securities for such prevailing price in the open market.  Buyer shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Mortgage Loans individually for the prevailing price. Buyer shall also be entitled, in its sole discretion to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder.

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

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

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

i.                  Buyer may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent

21.                               Entire Agreement; Severability

This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions.  Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

22.                               Non assignability

a.              The Program Agreements are not assignable by Seller or Guarantor.  Buyer may from time to time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements; provided, however that Buyer shall maintain as agent of Seller, for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned.  Upon such assignment, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Agreement to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Buyer hereunder, and (b) Buyer shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by it to either (i) an Affiliate of Buyer which assumes the obligations of Buyer or (ii) to another Person approved by Seller (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) which assumes the obligations of Buyer, be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Agreements.  Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Buyer in writing.  Buyer may

71

distribute to any prospective assignee any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller.

b.              Buyer may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Transaction, its right to purchase Mortgage Loans, or any other interest of Buyer hereunder and under the other Program Agreements. In the event of any such sale by Buyer of participating interests to a Participant, Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement to Seller shall remain unchanged, Buyer shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, Buyer shall remain the owner of the Purchased Mortgage Loans for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements, and Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements. Seller agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Buyer under this Agreement; provided, that such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of set-off if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its participating interest to share with Buyer the proceeds thereof.  Buyer also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 22 with respect to its participation; provided, that Buyer and all Participants shall be entitled to receive no greater amount in the aggregate pursuant to such Sections than Buyer would have been entitled to receive had no such transfer occurred.

c.               Buyer may furnish any information concerning Seller or Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries in the possession of Buyer from time to time to assignees and Participants (including prospective assignees and Participants) after securing signed confidentiality statements and only for the sole purpose of evaluating participations and for no other purpose.

d.              Seller and Guarantor agree to cooperate with Buyer in connection with any such assignment and/or participation, to execute and deliver such replacement notes, and to enter into such restatements of, and amendments, supplements and other modifications to, this Agreement and the other Program Agreements in order to give effect to such assignment and/or participation.  Seller and Guarantor further agree to furnish to any Participant identified by Buyer to Seller and Guarantor copies of all reports and certificates to be delivered by Seller and Guarantor to Buyer hereunder, as and when delivered to Buyer.

23.                               Set-off

In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller or Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller and Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and apply

72

against any Obligation from Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return excess margin), credits, cash, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof.  Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller or Guarantor after any such set off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

24.                               Binding Effect; Governing Law; Jurisdiction

a.              This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Seller acknowledges that the obligations of Buyer hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Buyer.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

b.              EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY.  EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING.  EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY SUBMITS TO, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS.

25.                               No Waivers, Etc.

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

73

26.                               Intent

a.              The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code.

b.              It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

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

d.              It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

e.               This Agreement is intended to be a “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555 and Section 559 under the Bankruptcy Code.

f.                For U.S. federal tax purposes, the Seller, the Guarantor, the Buyer, and each Buyer assignee by acquiring an interest in any Transaction agree to treat and report each Transaction as indebtedness issued by Guarantor or Seller as the case may be, which indebtedness, in the case of each obligor, shall have but a single maturity for purposes of Code section 7701(i)(2)(A)(ii) and U.S. Treasury Regulation section 301.7701(i)-1(e).

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

74

27.                               Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

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

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

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

28.                               Power of Attorney

Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets without Seller’s signature thereon as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate.  Seller hereby appoints Buyer as Seller’s agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statement or statements in Seller’s name and to perform all other acts which Buyer deems appropriate to perfect and continue its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, and sign assignments on behalf of Seller as its agent and attorney-in-fact and exercise all rights and remedies of Seller thereunder and to act as attorney-in-fact for Underlying Repurchase Counterparty.  This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Buyer’s consent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 28.  In addition the foregoing, Seller agrees to execute a power of attorney in the form of Exhibit E hereto (the “Power of Attorney”), to be delivered on the date hereof.

29.                               Buyer May Act Through Affiliates

Buyer may, from time to time, designate one or more affiliates for the purpose of performing any action hereunder.

30.                               Indemnification; Obligations

a.              Seller and Guarantor agree to hold Buyer and each of its respective Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify each Indemnified Party (and

75

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

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

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

31.                               Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

76

This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Buyer or Seller and Guarantor, as applicable, and shall be held by each party hereto, as applicable, in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Buyer, Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, except for (i) disclosure to Buyer’s, Seller’s or Guarantor’s direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, or (ii)  disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreement, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that Seller may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Buyer or any pricing terms (including, without limitation, the Pricing Rate, Commitment 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 federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of Buyer.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without limitation, all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”).  Seller understands that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Act (the “Act”), and Seller agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws.  Seller shall implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information” of the “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the Act) of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer which Buyer holds (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information. Seller represents and warrants that it has implemented appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the Act and of the applicable standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect.  Upon request, Seller will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow Buyer to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this Section.  Without limitation, this may include Buyer’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of Seller.  Seller shall notify the other party immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer provided directly to Seller by Buyer or such Affiliate.  Seller shall provide such notice to Buyer by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of

receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.

33.                               Recording of Communications

Buyer, Seller and Guarantor shall have the right (but not the obligation) from time to time to make or cause to be made tape recordings of communications between its employees and those of the other party with respect to Transactions.  Buyer, Seller and Guarantor consent to the admissibility of such tape recordings in any court, arbitration, or other proceedings.  The parties agree that a duly authenticated transcript of such a tape recording shall be deemed to be a writing conclusively evidencing the parties’ agreement.

Seller acknowledges that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to Seller, Underlying Repurchase Counterparty and the Mortgage Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no

78

notice is required, to Seller, Seller agrees to permit or shall cause Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to permit Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Files and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession or under the control of Seller, Underlying Repurchase Counterparty and/or Custodian.  Seller also shall make available or cause Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Mortgage Loans.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may purchase Mortgage Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Asset Data Record and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Mortgage Loans purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering Broker’s price opinions, new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate such Mortgage Loan.  Buyer may underwrite such Mortgage Loans itself or engage a third party underwriter, approved by Buyer in its sole discretion, to perform such underwriting.  Seller agrees to cooperate or cause Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller.  Seller further agrees that Seller shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Buyer’s activities pursuant to this Section 35 (“Due Diligence Costs”); provided, that such Due Diligence Costs shall not exceed the Due Diligence Cap per calendar year unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, in which event Buyer shall have the right to perform due diligence, at the sole expense of Seller without regard to the dollar limitation set forth herein.

POWER OF ATTORNEY

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that [                                ] (“Seller”) hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Bank of America, N.A. (“Buyer”) and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Seller and in the name of Seller or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion:

(a)           in the name of Seller, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any assets purchased by Buyer under the Master Repurchase Agreement (as amended, restated or modified) dated as of July 9, 2014 (the “Assets”) and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any other assets whenever payable;

(ii)           to pay or discharge taxes and liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Assets;

(iii)          (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Assets to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct; (B) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Assets; (C) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Assets; (D) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Assets or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Assets; (E) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Seller with respect to any Assets; (F) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; and (G) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Assets as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Seller’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Assets and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Seller might do;

(iv)          for the purpose of carrying out the transfer of servicing with respect to the Assets from Seller to a successor servicer appointed by Buyer in its sole discretion and to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish such transfer of servicing, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Seller, without assent by Seller, to, in the name of Seller or its own name, or otherwise, prepare and send or cause to be sent “good-bye” letters to all mortgagors under the Assets, transferring the servicing of the Assets to a successor servicer appointed by Buyer in its sole discretion;

(v)           for the purpose of directing any institution with accounts in Seller’s name to remit funds to Buyer;

Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

Seller also authorizes Buyer, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Assets.

The powers conferred on Buyer hereunder are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Assets and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Seller for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Special Language Required to Comply with New York Law:

CAUTION TO THE PRINCIPAL:

Your Power of Attorney is an important document. As the “principal,” you give the person whom you choose (your “agent”) authority to spend your money and sell or dispose of your property during your lifetime without telling you. You do not lose your authority to act even though you have given your agent similar authority.

When your agent exercises this authority, he or she must act according to any instructions you have provided or, where there are no specific instructions, in your best interest. “Important Information for the Agent” at the end of this document describes your agent’s responsibilities.

Your agent can act on your behalf only after signing the Power of Attorney before a notary public.

You can request information from your agent at any time. If you are revoking a prior Power of Attorney by executing this Power of Attorney, you should provide written notice of the revocation to your prior agent(s) and to the financial institutions where your accounts are located.

You can revoke or terminate your Power of Attorney at any time for any reason as long as you are of sound mind. If you are no longer of sound mind, a court can remove an agent for acting improperly.

Your agent cannot make health care decisions for you. You may execute a “Health Care Proxy” to do this.

The law governing Powers of Attorney is contained in the New York General Obligations Law, Article 5, Title 15. This law is available at a law library, or online through the New York State Senate or Assembly websites, ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇ or ▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇.

E-2

If there is anything about this document that you do not understand, you should ask a lawyer of your own choosing to explain it to you.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE AGENT:

When you accept the authority granted under this Power of Attorney, a special legal relationship is created between you and the principal. This relationship imposes on you legal responsibilities that continue until you resign or the Power of Attorney is terminated or revoked. You must:

(1) act according to any instructions from the principal, or, where there are no instructions, in the principal’s best interest;

(2) avoid conflicts that would impair your ability to act in the principal’s best interest;

(3) keep the principal’s property separate and distinct from any assets you own or control, unless otherwise permitted by law;

(4) keep a record or all receipts, payments, and transactions conducted for the principal; and

(5) disclose your identity as an agent whenever you act for the principal by writing or printing the principal’s name and signing your own name as “agent” in either of the following manner: (Principal’s Name) by (Your Signature) as Agent, or (your signature) as Agent for (Principal’s Name).

You may not use the principal’s assets to benefit yourself or give major gifts to yourself or anyone else unless the principal has specifically granted you that authority in this Power of Attorney or in a Statutory Major Gifts Rider attached to this Power of Attorney. If you have that authority, you must act according to any instructions of the principal or, where there are no such instructions, in the principal’s best interest. You may resign by giving written notice to the principal and to any co-agent, successor agent, monitor if one has been named in this document, or the principal’s guardian if one has been appointed. If there is anything about this document or your responsibilities that you do not understand, you should seek legal advice.

Liability of agent:

The meaning of the authority given to you is defined in New York’s General Obligations Law, Article 5, Title 15. If it is found that you have violated the law or acted outside the authority granted to you in the Power of Attorney, you may be liable under the law for your violation.

IRREVOCABLE CLOSING INSTRUCTIONS

[DATE]

(“Closing Agent”)

Dear

Re:          Irrevocable Closing Instructions

Closing Protection Letter Issued By, if applicable:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is being sent in accordance with that Master Repurchase Agreement dated as of July 9, 2014 (the “Agreement”) among PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (“Seller”), PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust and Bank of America, N.A. (“Buyer”), the terms of each of which do not affect Closing Agent except as set forth herein.

Pursuant to the Agreement, you have been identified as either:

·                                          the title insurer to close and provide title insurance on certain mortgage loans made by PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”); or

·                                          the closing agent to close and fund certain mortgage loans made by PMC and covered by the above referenced closing protection letter (the “Mortgage Loans”).

From time to time, Buyer will wire to you, on behalf of Seller and for the account of PMC, funds requested by Seller under the Agreement, and as requested by PMC under the terms of an agreement between PMC and Seller to be used by you for the purpose of funding such Mortgage Loan(s) and for no other purpose.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, you are not to distribute any of such funds to either Seller or PMC.  You must immediately return the funds to Buyer at the following account if one of the following conditions occurs:

·                                          You do not close any Mortgage Loan within forty-eight (48) hours of the time you receive the applicable funds; or

·                                          You receive funds for a Mortgage Loan for which you have not been instructed by PMC to (a) obtain title insurance from the title insurance company specified in the above referenced closing protection letter or (b) underwrite the title insurance.

K-1

If the Mortgage Loan Documents (as described below) have not been delivered to PMC prior to the funding of the Transaction, within forty eight (48) hours of closing any Mortgage Loan, unless otherwise instructed by Buyer, you must deliver to PMC, the following Mortgage Loan Documents:

(a)                                 the original mortgage note evidencing the Mortgage Loan, endorsed by PMC in blank, with a complete chain from the originator to PMC;

(b)                                 if in your possession, an original assignment in blank executed by PMC for the mortgage or deed of trust securing the mortgage note, in recordable form but unrecorded, with a complete chain of intervening assignments from the originator to PMC;

(c)                                  a certified copy of the executed mortgage or deed of trust securing the mortgage note; and

(d)                                 an original or copy of the title insurance policy insuring the first lien or second lien position of the mortgage or deed of trust, as applicable, in at least the original principal amount of the related mortgage note and containing only those exceptions permitted by the purchase commitment, as set forth in the final closing instructions referred to below, or an unconditional commitment to issue such a title insurance policy, or a preliminary report and instructions received from PMC relating to the issuance of such a title insurance policy.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan for which you act as Closing Agent, PMC will deliver to you final closing instructions specific to such Mortgage Loan.  In the event that the terms of the final closing instructions contradict the terms of these irrevocable closing instructions, the terms of these irrevocable closing instructions shall govern.  Permission to change the scheduled closing date for any Mortgage Loan beyond the time permitted herein or permission to otherwise deviate from these irrevocable closing instructions must be furnished to you in a writing signed by Buyer and PMC.

By your participation in the closing and funding of a Mortgage Loan as Closing Agent, you agree to act as Buyer’s bailee with respect to such Mortgage Loan and the Mortgage Loan Documents referenced above and you thereby acknowledge your responsibility to Buyer as holder of an interest in such Mortgage Loan and to care for and protect Buyer’s interest in such Mortgage Loan.  Facsimile signatures on these instructions shall be deemed valid and binding to the same extent as the original.
