Section 2.01 Transactions.

During the Commitment Period, Seller may utilize the Commitment by requesting Transactions, Seller may pay the Repurchase Price in whole or in part at any time during such period, and additional Transactions may be entered into in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Buyer’s obligation to enter into Transactions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall terminate on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have no commitment or obligation to enter into Transactions in connection with Servicing Rights Assets to the extent the Purchase Price of such Transaction exceeds the lesser of i) the Maximum Servicing Rights Purchase Price and ii) the Servicing Rights Asset Base. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have no commitment or obligation to enter into any Transactions in connection with Receivables to the extent such Purchase Price exceeds the lesser of (i) the Maximum Servicer Advance Purchase Price and (ii) the Receivables Asset Base.

Section 2.02 Procedure for Entering into Transactions. (a) Seller may enter into Transactions with Buyer under the Facility during the Commitment Period on any Purchase Date; provided, that Seller shall have given Buyer irrevocable notice (each, a “Transaction Notice”), which notice (i) shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C, (ii) shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of Seller and be received by Buyer prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days prior to the related Purchase Date, and (iii) shall specify (A) the dollar amount of the requested Purchase Price, (B) the aggregate amount of Receivables subject to the Transaction, if applicable, (C) the value of the Portfolio Excess Spread on Seller’s books and records, if applicable, (D) the value of the Servicing Rights on Seller’s books and records, if applicable; provided that such value shall break out that portion attributable to the related Portfolio Excess Spread, (E) the requested Purchase Date, (F) the information required to be included in the Asset Schedule with respect to each such Asset in mutually acceptable electronic form and (G) the request for approval of the related Servicing Contract (to the extent not previously approved hereunder). Each Transaction Notice on any Purchase Date shall be in an amount equal to at least $25,000.

(b) If Seller shall deliver to Buyer a Transaction Notice that satisfies the requirements of Section 2.02(a), Buyer will notify Seller of its intent to remit the requested Purchase Price one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Purchase Date. If all applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article V have been satisfied on or prior to the Purchase Date, then subject to the foregoing, on the Purchase Date, Buyer shall remit the amount of the requested Purchase Price in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds (i) with respect to that portion of the Purchase Price attributable to a Delinquency Advance, to the trustee’s account under the related Securitization Transaction and (ii) with respect to that portion of the Purchase Price attributable to a Servicing Right or a Protective Advance, to the account specified by Seller.

(c) In the event that on the Purchase Date excess funds remain in the Dedicated Accounts (after application of payments in accordance with Section 2.07 but not including any amounts to be disbursed to Seller), Buyer may apply such excess funds to the amount of the requested Purchase Price.

(d) Upon entering into each Transaction hereunder, the Asset Schedule shall be automatically updated to include each of the Assets listed on the Asset Schedule attached to the Transaction Notice.

Section 2.03 Repurchase; Payment of Repurchase Price. (a) Seller hereby promises to repurchase the Purchased Assets and pay all outstanding Obligations on the Termination Date.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, on each Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall sweep all amounts received with respect to (i) Servicing Rights to the applicable Servicing Rights Dedicated Account and (ii) Receivables to the Receivables Dedicated Account in accordance with Section 6.14 hereof to be applied in accordance with Section 2.07 hereof (provided that Seller shall remit to each of the applicable Dedicated Accounts, in accordance with Section 2.14 hereof, all proceeds received with respect to Assets not otherwise required to be deposited in a clearing, custodial or escrow account pursuant to the related Servicing Contract).

(c) By notifying Buyer in writing at least one (1) Business Day in advance, Seller shall be permitted, at its option, to prepay, subject to Section 2.12, the Purchase Price in whole or in part at any time, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the amount so prepaid.

Section 2.04 Price Differential. On each Price Differential Payment Date, Seller hereby promises to pay to Buyer all accrued and unpaid Price Differential on the Transactions, as invoiced by Buyer three (3) Business Days prior to the related Price Differential Payment Date (the “Price Differential Statement Date”); provided that if Buyer fails to deliver such statement on the Price Differential Statement Date, on such Price Differential Payment Date Seller shall pay the amount which Seller calculates as the Price Differential due and upon delivery of the statement, Seller shall remit to Buyer any shortfall, or Buyer shall refund to Seller any excess, in the Price Differential paid. Price Differential shall accrue each day on the Purchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate. The Price Differential shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in each Price Differential Period and a 360-day year.

Section 2.05 Margin Maintenance. (a) If at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of the Purchase Price in connection with Receivables exceeds the Receivables Asset Base in effect at such time, as determined by Buyer (such excess, a “Receivables Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount at least equal to the Receivables Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Receivables Margin Call”).

(b) If at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of the Purchase Price in connection with Servicing Rights exceeds the Servicing Rights Asset Base in effect at such time, as determined by Buyer (such excess, a “Servicing Rights Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount at least equal to the Servicing Rights Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Servicing Rights Margin Call” and together with a Receivables Margin Call, a “Margin Call”).

(c) Notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.05(a) or Section 2.05(b) may be given by any written or electronic means. With respect to a Margin Call in the amount of less than 5% of the outstanding principal amount of the Purchase Price (a “Low Percentage Margin Call”), any notice given before 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day; notice given after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day following the date of such notice.

The foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”. The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. 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, Buyer may retain any funds received by it to which Seller would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) may be held by Buyer against the related Margin Deficit or (ii) may be applied by Buyer against the Purchase Price.

(i) shall subject Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions (excluding income taxes, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes or similar taxes imposed on Buyer as a result of any present or former connection between Buyer and the United States, other than any such connection arising solely from Buyer having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement) or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof;

Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Repurchase Assets so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Seller further agrees, at Buyer’s request, to assemble the Repurchase Assets and make it available to Buyer at places which Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at Seller’s premises or elsewhere. Buyer shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable (under the circumstances) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Repurchase Assets or in any way relating to the Repurchase Assets or the rights of Buyer hereunder, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Buyer may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by Buyer of any other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including without limitation Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Buyer account for the surplus, if any, to Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Buyer arising out of the exercise by Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Repurchase Assets shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as contemplated herein) if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Repurchase Assets are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements in amounts reasonable under the circumstances, of any attorneys employed by Buyer to collect such deficiency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Program Agreements, the remedies set forth in this Section 4.11 shall be subject to the Servicing Contracts and Acknowledgement Agreements entered into with Xxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, as applicable.

Section 4.13 Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Repurchase Assets. Buyer’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Repurchase Assets in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Buyer deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Buyer nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Repurchase Assets or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Repurchase Assets upon the request of Seller or otherwise.

Section 4.14 Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Repurchase Assets are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

Section 4.15 Release of Security Interest. Upon the latest to occur of (a) the repayment to Buyer of all Obligations and the performance of all obligations under the Program Agreements, and (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, Buyer shall release its security interest in any remaining Repurchase Assets hereunder and shall promptly execute and deliver to Seller such documents or instruments as Seller shall reasonably request to evidence such release; provided, that such release shall not be required until such time as the Acknowledgment Agreement is terminated.

Section 4.16 Reinstatement. All security interests created by this Article IV shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation of Seller or Guarantor is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or Guarantor or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as if such release had not been made.

Section 4.17 Subordination.

(a) It is anticipated that in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Program Agreements, that (x) the Underlying Spread Counterparty is pledging the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread to the Seller subject to the Lien of the Buyer and (y) Seller hereby reaffirms such Lien. Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase Assets under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to (i) the rights of Buyer under this Agreement and (ii) the rights of the Buyer under the Security Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, Seller agrees to subordinate all of the rights under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement to the rights of the Buyer hereunder and under the other Program Agreements. In furtherance of the foregoing, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to Seller under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement and Underlying Spread Documents, applicable law or otherwise, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, exercise any remedies available to it under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement and Underlying Spread Documents or at law or equity for ninety-one (91) days following the date that all Obligations are paid in full under the Program Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, in no instance shall the Buyer succeed to any liabilities or obligations of Seller under the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement or the Underlying Spread Documents.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller agrees to not assert any objection to, and shall be deemed to have otherwise consented to, a disposition of any assets subject to the Master Spread Acquisition Agreement, Underlying Spread Documents or the Program Agreements during an Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller, free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar bankruptcy law) if Buyer has consented to such disposition.

(c) If an Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller occurs, the Seller agrees not to contest (or support any other Person contesting) any request by Buyer for adequate protection, or any objection by Buyer to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on Buyer claiming a lack of adequate protection.

(d) Until the obligations under the Program Agreements are paid in full, the Seller shall not oppose any request by Buyer for relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller.

(e) Seller shall not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by Buyer for allowance and payment in any Act of Insolvency of Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller, of obligations under the Program Agreements consisting of post-petition interest, fees, costs or other charges to the extent of the value of Buyer’s lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims on the assets that are the subject of this Agreement, the Security Agreement or the Underlying Spread Documents, without regard to the existence of a lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims of Underlying Spread Counterparty applicable to the obligations of the other parties to the Program Agreements.

(f) Seller shall not seek in any Act of Insolvency of the Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller, to be treated as part of the same class of creditors as Buyer and shall not oppose any pleading or motion by Buyer advocating that Buyer and Underlying Spread Counterparty and Seller should be treated as separate classes of creditors. Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase Assets are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer under this Agreement.

Section 10.06 Severability. 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. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 10.07 Section Headings. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 10.09 Periodic Due Diligence Review. Seller and Guarantor acknowledge that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to Seller and Guarantor and the Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller and Guarantor agree that upon reasonable (but no less than five (5) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller or Guarantor, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the ordinary conduct of Seller’s or Guarantor’s business, to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Assets in the possession or under the control of Seller or Guarantor. Seller and Guarantor also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller and Guarantor acknowledge that Buyer may enter into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Asset Schedule 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 Assets related to a Transaction. Seller and Guarantor agree 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 Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of Seller or Guarantor.

Subject to the relevant Acknowledgment Agreement with any Agency, Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets.

Section 10.11 Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment. (a) This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Buyer and Agent 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 Agreements, 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, Purchase Price Percentage, Purchase Price and Commitment Fee) 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.

(b) 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 Repurchase Assets 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 Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx 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 Seller 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 Buyer 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.

Section 10.12 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 appropriate and apply 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 funds to Seller), credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from 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.

Section 10.13 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 Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 7.03 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.

Section 10.14 Amendment and Restatement. The terms and provisions of the Existing Agreement shall be amended and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller, Guarantor and Buyer have caused this Master Repurchase Agreement to be executed and delivered by their duly authorized officers or trustees as of the date first above written.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING THE ASSETS

The Seller makes the following representations and warranties to the Buyer, with respect to Servicing Contracts subject to each Transaction, as of the date of this Agreement, the date of any Transaction, and while the Program Agreements are in full force and effect. The representations and warranties shall be limited to Servicing Contracts that are acquired on or after the date of this Agreement. For purposes of this Schedule 1 and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to the Servicing Contracts if and when the Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Servicing Contracts.

(a) Asset Schedule. The Asset Schedule most recently submitted to Buyer is a true and complete list of the Assets pledged hereunder as of the date of submission.

(b) Servicing Contracts. All of the Servicing Contracts with respect to such Assets are in full force and effect and have not been modified and Seller as servicer has not been terminated thereunder.

(c) Assignment. Pursuant to this Agreement, Seller grants to the Buyer a valid security interest in all the right, title and interest of such Seller in and to the Repurchase Assets and the other Related Security, which security interest is perfected and of first priority, enforceable against, and creating an interest prior in right to, all creditors of and purchasers from Seller.

(d) No Liens. Each Purchased Asset conveyed and pledged on such Purchase Date is owned by the related Seller free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein, and is not subject to any dispute or other Adverse Claim, except as provided herein. The Buyer’s security interest in such Purchased Assets, the Related Security and the Collections with respect thereto, is free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein. The Seller has not and will not prior to the time of the pledge of any such interest to the Buyer have sold, pledged, assigned, transferred or subjected and will not thereafter sell, pledge, assign, transfer or subject to a Lien any of such Purchased Assets, the Related Security or the Collections other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Filings. On or prior to each Purchase Date, all financing statements and other documents required to be recorded or filed in order to perfect the Buyer’s security interest in, and protect the Assets and the other related Assets against all creditors of, and purchasers from, Seller and all other Persons whatsoever have been duly filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose, and all filing fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings have been paid in full.

Schedule 1-A-1

(g) Bona Fide Asset. Each Purchased Asset being sold and/or pledged on an Purchase Date is an obligation arising out of the making of a Servicer Advance by the related Seller or a predecessor servicer, in its capacity as a servicer or subservicer of a portfolio of mortgage loans, pursuant to a Servicing Contract. The Seller has no knowledge of any fact that should have led it to expect at the time of the creation of each Purchased Asset that such Purchased Asset would not be paid in full when due. As of the Purchase Date, the Seller has not received any Collections or other payments in respect of the Purchased Assets, and each Purchased Asset is an Eligible Asset.

(h) Servicer Advances Reimbursable. The terms of the Servicing Contracts provide that each Servicer Advance is reimbursable to the Seller from collections on the related mortgage loan, or collections on other mortgage loans serviced or subserviced by the Seller pursuant to the related Servicing Contract.

(i) Compliance with Servicing Contract. Each Servicer Advance has been made in accordance with the terms of the related Servicing Contract.

(j) Adverse Selection. Seller has not selected the Purchased Assets in a manner that will adversely affect Buyer’s interests.

(k) No Subservicing. Except as otherwise disclosed to Buyer, all of the Purchased Assets constituting Servicing Rights hereunder constitute direct servicing rights (and not subservicing rights.)

(l) Good Title. Seller has good title to all of the Repurchase Assets other than the Portfolio Excess Spread, free and clear of all mortgages, security interests, restrictions, Liens and encumbrances of any kind other than the Liens created by the Program Agreements. The Underlying Spread Counterparty has good title to the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread, subject to the Lien created hereby and further perfected pursuant to the Security Agreement, but otherwise, free and clear of all mortgages, security interests, restrictions, Liens and encumbrances of any kind.

(m) No Defenses. Each item of the Repurchase Assets was acquired by Seller in the ordinary course of its business, in good faith, for value and without notice of any defense against or claim to it on the part of any Person and there are no agreements or understandings between Seller and any other party which would modify, release, terminate or delay the attachment of the security interests granted to Buyer under this Agreement and no obligor has any defense, set off, claim or counterclaim against Seller that can be asserted against Buyer, whether in any proceeding to enforce the Buyer’s rights in the related Mortgage Loan or otherwise.

(n) Amount Outstanding. The amount represented by Seller to Buyer as owing by an obligor under each Mortgage Loan being serviced under a Servicing Contract is the correct amount actually owing by that obligor.

(o) Servicing Compliance with Applicable Laws. Seller has complied with the terms of the Servicing Contract and applicable laws in all material respects.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE:
UNDERLYING SPREAD TRANSACTIONS

The Seller makes the following representations and warranties to the Buyer, with respect to Underlying Spread Transactions, as of the date of this Agreement, the date of the Underlying Spread Transactions, and as of each date the Program Agreements are in full force and effect. For purposes of this Schedule 1-C and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to the Underlying Spread Transactions if and when the Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Underlying Spread Transaction.

(a) Validity of Underlying Spread Documents. The Underlying Spread Documents and any other agreement executed and delivered by Underlying Spread Counterparty or guarantor thereto, as applicable, in connection with an Underlying Spread Transaction are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws or by general principles of equity. Underlying Spread Counterparty and Seller had legal capacity to enter into the Underlying Spread Transaction and Underlying Spread Counterparty had the legal capacity to execute and deliver the Underlying Spread Documents and any such agreement, and the Underlying Spread Documents and any such other related agreement to which Underlying Spread Counterparty or Seller are parties have been duly and properly executed by Underlying Spread Counterparty and Seller, as applicable. The Underlying Spread Documents to which Underlying Spread Counterparty is a party constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Underlying Spread Counterparty. The Underlying Spread Transaction and the Underlying Spread Documents are in full force and effect, and the enforceability of the Underlying Spread Documents has not been contested by Underlying Spread Counterparty.

(c) No Defenses. The Underlying Spread Transaction is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of any Underlying Spread Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render any Underlying Spread Document unenforceable in whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto.

(d) No Bankruptcy. Underlying Spread Counterparty is not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. Underlying Spread Counterparty has not threatened and is not contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Underlying Spread Counterparty’s assets or any of the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread.

Schedule 1-C-1

(e) Compliance with Applicable Laws; Consents. Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity and disclosure laws and unfair and deceptive practices laws applicable to the Underlying Spread Transaction have been complied with, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations. All consents of and all filings with any federal or state Governmental Authority necessary in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of the Underlying Spread Transaction have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

(f) No Waiver. Except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, Seller has not waived the performance by Underlying Spread Counterparty of any action under the Underlying Spread Documents, if Underlying Spread Counterparty’s failure to perform such action would cause the Underlying Spread Transaction to be in default in any material respect nor, except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, has Seller waived any such default resulting from any action or inaction by Underlying Spread Counterparty.

(g) No Defaults. There is no material default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration existing under the Underlying Spread Documents and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration, and neither Seller nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective predecessors, have waived any default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration; and all maintenance charges and assessments (including assessments payable in the future installments, which previously became due and owing) have been paid.

(j) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Underlying Spread Documents by Underlying Spread Counterparty do not conflict with or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien (other than pursuant to the Underlying Spread Documents) under, any material servicing agreement, participation agreement, agreement, partnership agreement, or other agreement or instrument to which Underlying Spread Counterparty is a party or to which any of its property is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Underlying Spread Counterparty, and any qualification of or with any governmental authority required for the execution, delivery, and performance by Underlying Spread Counterparty of the Underlying Spread Documents has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

(l) Underlying Spread Documents Not Assigned. No Underlying Spread Document is assigned to any third party other than the Buyer. The Underlying Spread Documents permit Seller to assign, pledge, transfer or rehypothecate the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread and all other collateral pledged to Seller pursuant to the Underlying Spread Documents. The Underlying Spread Documents expressly provide that the Underlying Spread Counterparty’s rights to redemption are solely with respect to Seller, but to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a right of redemption exists with respect to the Buyer hereunder, such redemption may only be for the full amount of the Purchase Price then outstanding hereunder.

Underlying Spread Counterparty is not insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section 101(32) and the transfer and pledge of the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread pursuant to the Underlying Spread Documents (i) will not cause Underlying Spread Counterparty to become insolvent, (ii) will not result in any property remaining with Underlying Spread Counterparty to be unreasonably small capital, and (iii) will not result in debts that would be beyond Underlying Spread Counterparty’s ability to pay as same mature. Underlying Spread Counterparty receives reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer and pledge of the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread in accordance with the Underlying Spread Documents.

(n) Ownership. Seller has the right to pledge the Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread. The Repledge Portfolio Excess Spread has not been assigned or pledged by Seller other than pursuant to this Agreement and the Security Agreement.
