ARTICLE 3

THE TRANSACTIONS

Section 3.01 Procedures.

(a) Upon the Closing Date, from time to time but not more frequently than once per week a Seller may request Buyer to enter into a proposed Transaction by sending Buyer a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit J (“Transaction Request”) (i) describing the Transaction and each proposed Asset and any related Underlying Mortgaged Property and other security therefor in reasonable detail, (ii) transmitting an Underwriting Package for each proposed Asset acceptable to Buyer, and (iii) specifying which (if any) of the representations and warranties of the applicable Seller set forth in this Agreement (including those contained in Schedules 1-A, 1-B and 1-C applicable to the related Purchased Asset) the applicable Seller will be unable to make with respect to such Asset. The applicable Seller shall promptly deliver to Buyer any supplemental materials requested at any time by Buyer. Buyer shall conduct such review of the Underwriting Package and each such Asset as Buyer deems appropriate in its determination of whether or not to purchase any or all of the proposed Assets. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that Buyer is entering into the Transactions on the basis of all such representations and warranties and on the completeness and accuracy of the information contained in the applicable Underwriting Package, and any incompleteness or inaccuracies in the related Underwriting Package will only be acceptable to Buyer if disclosed in writing to Buyer by the applicable Seller in advance of the related Purchase Date, and then only if Buyer opts to purchase the related Purchased Asset from the applicable Seller notwithstanding such incompleteness and inaccuracies. In the event of a Representation Breach in respect of a Purchased Mortgage Loan or an Underlying Asset, Buyer shall have such remedies as provided for in Section 3.04.

(b) Buyer shall give Sellers notice within two (2) Business Days of the date when Buyer has received a preliminary Underwriting Package and supplemental materials from Seller and acceptable to Buyer. Such notice shall contain a preliminary non-binding determination of whether or not Buyer is willing to purchase any or all of such Assets, and if so, on what terms and conditions (including without limitation the indicative pricing for such Assets). Sellers shall promptly provide Buyer with a completed Underwriting Package and supplemental materials. Within three (3) Business Days after Buyer has received the completed Underwriting Package and supplemental materials, and if its preliminary determination is favorable, Buyer shall communicate to Sellers a final non-binding indication of its determination. If Buyer has not communicated in writing, its final non-binding indication to Sellers by such date, Buyer shall automatically and without further action be deemed to have determined not to purchase any such Asset.

(c) If Buyer communicates to Sellers a final non-binding determination in writing that it is willing to purchase any or all of such Purchased Assets on a Purchase Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer an executed preliminary Confirmation for such Transaction, describing each such Purchased Asset and related Underlying Asset, if any, and its proposed Purchase Date, Market Value, Applicable Percentage, Purchase Price and such other terms and conditions as Buyer may require. If Buyer requires changes to the preliminary Confirmation,

Sellers shall make such changes and re-execute the preliminary Confirmation. If Buyer determines to enter into the Transaction on the terms described in the preliminary Confirmation, Buyer shall promptly execute and return the same to Sellers, which shall thereupon become effective as the Confirmation of the Transaction. Buyer’s approval of the purchase of a Purchased Asset (and the related Underlying Assets) on such terms and conditions as Buyer may require shall be evidenced only by its execution and delivery of the related Confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not (i) be bound by any preliminary or final non-binding determination referred to above, (ii) be deemed to have approved the purchase of a Purchased Asset by virtue of the approval or entering into by Buyer of a rate lock agreement, total return swap or any other agreement with respect to such Asset, or (iii) be obligated to purchase a Purchased Asset notwithstanding a Confirmation executed by the Parties unless and until all applicable conditions precedent in Article 6 have been satisfied or waived by Buyer.

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

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

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

(g) (i) With respect to the Purchased REMIC Certificates, the related Underlying Mortgage Loans may be removed from supporting such REMIC Certificate from time to time at the option of PMC in accordance with the related REMIC Declaration Agreement. Provided that any such Removed Mortgage Loan is and continues to be an Eligible Mortgage Loan, from and after the related Conversion Date, such Removed Mortgage Loan shall automatically be subject to a Transaction with respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans. In such case, the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price of the Transaction for the related Purchased REMIC Certificate shall be reduced by the Purchase Price of each such Removed Mortgage Loan and the Purchase Price of the Transaction consisting of such Mortgage Loans shall be increased by the Purchase Price of each such Removed Mortgage Loan and the Buyer and Sellers shall reflect the same on their records. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the

contrary, each Conversion Date hereunder shall occur prior to the date on which the related Removed Mortgage Loans become REO Properties.

(ii) With respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, such Mortgage Loans from time to time at the option of PMC may be foreclosed upon and the subsequent related REO Property deeded in the name of PMC or PC REO as the case may be. Provided that any such Foreclosed Mortgage Loan is Eligible REO Property and is contributed to PC REO pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, from and after the related Conversion Date, such Foreclosed Mortgage Loan shall automatically underlie the Purchased REO Entity Interests. In such case, the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be reduced by the Purchase Price of such Foreclosed Mortgage Loan and the Purchase Price of the Transaction consisting of such Purchased REO Entity Interests (now supported by the addition of the Foreclosed Mortgage Loan) shall be increased by the Purchase Price of such Foreclosed Mortgage Loan and the Buyer and Sellers shall reflect the same on their records. Upon transfer of REO Entity Interests to Buyer as set forth herein and until termination of any related Transactions as set forth herein, ownership of the REO Entity Interests held by PMC shall be vested in the Buyer. At any time an Eligible Mortgage Loan owned by PMC is transferred to and/or the related Underlying Mortgaged Property is foreclosed in the name of PC REO, the record title in such REO Property shall be vested in and retained by PC REO. It is a condition precedent to Buyer entering into a Transaction with respect to such REO Property that the related REO Deed shall have been delivered to the appropriate recording office for recordation in the name of PC REO.

(h) For the purposes of each Transaction and any Purchased Assets sold to Buyer on a Purchase Date, Seller shall mean: (i) PMC with respect to any Purchased Assets which are Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation any Removed Mortgage Loans) and any REO Entity Interests, and (ii) PMIT, with respect to any Purchased Assets which are REMIC Certificates.

Section 3.02 Transfer of Purchased Assets; Servicing Rights.

On the Purchase Date for each Purchased Asset, and subject to the satisfaction of all applicable conditions precedent in Article 6, (i) ownership of and title to such Purchased Asset shall be transferred to and vest in Buyer or its designee against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase Price to Sellers’ (identified in the related Confirmation) account specified in Schedule 2 (or if not specified therein, in the related Confirmation or as directed by Sellers), and (ii) Sellers hereby sell, transfer, convey and assign, or with respect to Underlying Mortgage Loans, pledge as and to the extent provided in Section 11.01(b), to Buyer on a servicing-released basis all of Sellers’ right, title and interest (but no Retained Interests) in and to the related Purchased Assets or Underlying Mortgage Loans, as applicable, together with all related Servicing Rights (in the case of any Underlying Mortgage Loans as and to the extent provided in Section 11.01(b)). Subject to this Agreement, upon the Closing Date, Sellers may sell to Buyer, repurchase from Buyer and re-sell Eligible Assets to Buyer, but may not substitute other Eligible Assets for Purchased Assets. Buyer has the right to designate the servicer and any sub-servicer of the Purchased Assets and Underlying REO Property, and following the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or other Event of Default, the servicer and any sub-servicer of the Underlying Mortgage Loans; provided that Buyer shall not terminate the Servicer with respect to

the Underlying Mortgage Loans in the absence of an Event of Default without first obtaining the Class A Participant and Sellers’ consent to such termination, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall be presumed to be given if Sellers do not respond to Buyer’s request for such consent within three (3) Business Days of such request; provided, however, that any replacement Servicer shall be selected in accordance with Section 17.01(f) The Servicing Rights and other servicing provisions under this Agreement are not severable from or to be separated from the Purchased Assets or Underlying Assets under this Agreement and, such Servicing Rights and other servicing provisions of this Agreement constitute (x) “related terms” under this Agreement within the meaning of Section 101(47)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code and/or (y) a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Repurchase Documents. Solely for the purpose of facilitating servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article 17, Buyer may delay transfer of record title in one or more Purchased Mortgage Loans, subject to receipt from Sellers of fully executed transfer documentation in blank.

Section 3.03 Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price. The Aggregate Purchase Price for all Purchased Assets as of any date shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price. If the Aggregate Purchase Price exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price, Sellers shall immediately pay to Buyer an amount necessary to reduce the Aggregate Purchase Price to an amount equal to or less than the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price.

Section 3.04 Early Repurchase Date; Mandatory Repurchases; Ineligibility Cures. Sellers may terminate any Transaction with respect to any or all Purchased Assets subject to a Sale and Disposition or an Early Repurchase and repurchase such Purchased Assets on any date prior to the Repurchase Date (an “Early Repurchase Date”); provided, that (a) Sellers irrevocably notify Buyer prior to the Early Repurchase Date in accordance with the timeframes set forth in the Early Repurchase Schedule, identifying the Purchased Asset(s) to be repurchased and the Repurchase Price thereof, (b) each Seller delivers a certificate from a Responsible Officer of such Seller in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer certifying that no Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default exists or would exist as a result of such repurchase and there are no other Liens on the Purchased Assets other than Buyer’s Lien, and (c) Sellers thereafter comply with Section 3.05. Such early terminations and repurchases shall be in accordance with the Early Repurchase Schedule.

To the extent (i) any Purchased Mortgage Loan no longer qualifies as an Eligible Mortgage Loan or any Underlying Mortgage Loan was not an Eligible Mortgage Loan as of the date the REMIC Certificates were issued, in either case as determined by Buyer, Sellers shall cure any such defect or repurchase any such Mortgage Loan within five (5) Business Days after the earlier of receipt of notice thereof from Buyer or the discovery of such defect by Seller, (ii) any Underlying REO Property was not an Eligible REO Property as of the date of contribution to PC REO, as determined by Buyer, PMC shall remove such REO Property from PC REO pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement Sellers within ten (10) Business Days after the earlier of receipt of notice thereof from Buyer or the discovery of such defect by Seller, (iii) any Underlying Mortgage Loan is not an Eligible Mortgage Loan at any time after the date the REMIC Certificates were issued, as determined by Buyer, Buyer may assign a Market Value of zero to such Underlying Mortgage Loan, or (iv) any Underlying REO Property is not an Eligible REO Property at any time after such REO Property was contributed to PC REO as a result of a

Representation Breach with respect to any of those representations and warranties set forth in Schedule 1-B that are separately listed on Schedule 3 hereto, PMC, as Administrator of PC REO, shall cause the PC REO to sell such Underlying REO Property within thirty (30) days of the earlier of (x) discovery by any Seller or (y) written notice from Buyer (collectively, the “Ineligibility Remedies”).

Section 3.05 Repurchase; Removal; Sale. On the Repurchase Date for each Purchased Asset, Sellers shall transfer to Buyer the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Asset as of the Repurchase Date, and Buyer shall transfer to the applicable Seller such Purchased Asset whereupon the Transaction with respect to such Purchased Asset shall terminate. On the Repurchase Date for any Underlying Mortgage Loan or Underlying REO Property pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of the Ineligibility Remedies or on the sale date for any Underlying REO Property pursuant to clause (iv) of the Ineligibility Remedies, Sellers shall transfer to Buyer (or the Participation Account with respect to any Underlying Mortgage Loans related to a REMIC Certificate) the Repurchase Price for such Underlying Asset as of such date and such Underlying Asset shall be released from the related Purchased Asset, whereupon the outstanding Purchase Price for the related Purchased REMIC Certificates or Purchased REO Entity Interests shall be reduced by the Purchase Price of such Underlying Asset. Buyer shall be deemed to have simultaneously released its interests in such Purchased Asset or Underlying Mortgage Loan, shall authorize Custodian to release to the applicable Seller the Asset Documents for such Purchased Asset or Underlying Asset and, to the extent any UCC financing statement filed against Sellers specifically identifies such Purchased Asset or Underlying Mortgage Loan, upon a Seller’s request Buyer shall deliver an amendment thereto or termination thereof evidencing the release of such Purchased Asset or Underlying Mortgage Loan from Buyer’s security interest therein. Any such transfer or release shall be without recourse to Buyer and without representation or warranty by Buyer, except that Buyer shall represent to Sellers, to the extent that good title was transferred and assigned by Sellers to Buyer hereunder on the related Purchase Date, that Buyer is the sole owner of such Purchased Asset or pledgee of such Underlying Mortgage Loan, free and clear of any other interests or Liens caused by Buyer’s actions or inactions. Any Income with respect to such Purchased Asset or Underlying Asset received by Buyer or Account Bank after payment of the Repurchase Price therefor shall be remitted to Sellers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or before the Maturity Date, Sellers shall repurchase all Purchased Assets by paying to Buyer the outstanding Repurchase Price therefor and paying all other outstanding Repurchase Obligations as set forth herein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in any Repurchase Document, at any time during the existence of an uncured Default or Event of Default, Sellers cannot repurchase a Purchased Asset in connection with a full payoff of such Asset by the Underlying Obligor, unless one-hundred percent (100%) of the net proceeds due in connection with the relevant payoff shall be paid directly to Buyer; together with payment of the excess of the then current Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Asset (if any) over such net proceeds (if any). The portion of all such net proceeds in excess of the then-current Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Asset (if any) shall be applied by Buyer to reduce any other amounts due and payable to Buyer under this Agreement.

Section 3.06 Payment of Price Differential and Fees.

(a) Notwithstanding that Buyer and Sellers intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Assets for all but U.S. federal income tax purposes and GAAP, Sellers shall pay to Buyer the accrued value of the Price Differential for each Purchased Asset on each Remittance Date. Buyer shall give Sellers notice of the Price Differential and any fees and other amounts due under the Repurchase Documents on or prior to the related Pricing Period End Date; provided, that Buyer’s failure to deliver such notice shall not affect a Seller’s obligation to pay such amounts. If the Price Differential includes any estimated Price Differential, Buyer shall recalculate such Price Differential after the Remittance Date and, if necessary, make adjustments to the Price Differential amount due on the following Remittance Date.

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

(c) Sellers shall pay to Buyer all fees and other amounts as and when due as set forth in this Agreement and the Fee Letter including, without limitation: the Facility Fee, which shall be due and earned in full by Buyer on the Closing Date and payable monthly (without reduction, set-off or refund in the event of any early termination of this Agreement) by Sellers and Guarantor in twelve (12) equal monthly installments with the first such installment due on the Closing Date.

Section 3.07 Payment, Transfer and Custody.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts required to be paid or deposited by Sellers hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due, in immediately available Dollars and without deduction, setoff or counterclaim, and if not received before such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of such payment. Amounts payable to Buyer and not otherwise required to be deposited into an Account shall be deposited into an account of Buyer. Sellers shall have no rights in, rights of withdrawal from, or rights to give notices or instructions regarding Buyer’s account or the Waterfall Account. Amounts in the Waterfall Account may be invested at the direction of Buyer in cash equivalents before they are distributed in accordance with Article 5.

(b) Any Asset Documents not delivered to Buyer or Custodian, as may be required herein, are and shall be held in trust by Sellers or their agent for the benefit of Buyer as the owner thereof. Sellers or their agent shall maintain a copy of the Asset Documents and the originals of the Asset Documents not delivered to Buyer or Custodian.

The Repurchase Obligations with respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans and Purchased REMIC Certificates shall be full recourse to Sellers, but there shall be no recourse with respect to the Purchased REO Entity Interests as provided in Section 5.05 hereof.

ARTICLE 4

MARGIN MAINTENANCE

Section 4.01 Margin Deficit.

(a) If on any date the Market Value of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and Purchased REMIC Certificates (taking into account the Market Value of the Underlying Mortgage Loans) is less than the product of (A) Buyer’s Margin Percentage times (B) the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for such Purchased Assets as of such date, a margin deficit shall exist (a “Mortgage Loan/REMIC Margin Deficit”). If on any date the Market Value of all Purchased REO Entity Interests (taking into account the Market Value of the related REO Properties)is less than the product of (A) Buyer’s Margin Percentage times (B) the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for such Purchased Assets as of such date, a margin

deficit shall exist (an “REO Margin Deficit”). If on any date that a Mortgage Loan/REMIC Margin Deficit exists and a Margin Call Trigger Event shall have occurred, Buyer may provide a Margin Call Notice to Sellers notifying Sellers of such Margin Deficit (a “Margin Call”) and such Margin Call Notice shall require Sellers, upon Buyer’s direction or, in the case of a Margin Deficit arising solely because one or more of such Purchased Assets have ceased to be an Eligible Asset, at Seller’s option, to either (i) transfer cash to Buyer, (ii) transfer to Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) for no additional consideration additional Eligible Assets (“Additional Purchased Assets”), or (iii) choose any combination of the foregoing, so that, after giving effect to such transfers and payments, the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for all Purchased Mortgage Loans and Purchased REMIC Certificates does not exceed the product of (A) the aggregate Market Value thereof times (B) the Applicable Purchase Price Percentage. If on any date that an REO Margin Deficit exists and a Margin Call Trigger Event shall have occurred, Buyer may provide a Margin Call Notice to Sellers notifying Sellers of such Margin Deficit (a “Margin Call”) and Sellers may, but shall have no obligation to, (i) transfer cash to Buyer, (ii) transfer to Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) for no additional consideration additional Eligible Assets (“Additional Purchased Assets”), or (iii) choose any combination of the foregoing, so that, after giving effect to such transfers, repurchases and payments, the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price for all Purchased REO Entity Interests does not exceed the product of (A) the aggregate Market Value thereof times (B) the Applicable Purchase Price Percentage. Buyer shall apply the funds received in satisfaction of a Margin Deficit to the Repurchase Obligations in such manner as Buyer determines; provided that any funds received from Sellers to satisfy an REO Margin Deficit shall be applied to satisfy such REO Margin Deficit and any funds received from Sellers to satisfy a Mortgage Loan/REMIC Margin Deficit shall be applied to satisfy such Mortgage Loan/REMIC Margin Deficit. For the avoidance of doubt a Margin Call may be made with respect to a single Purchased Asset or multiple Purchased Assets.

(b) Margin Call Notices delivered pursuant to a Margin Call in Section 4.01(a) may be given by any written means. Any Margin Call Notice with respect to a Mortgage Loan/REMIC Margin Deficit given before 11:00 a.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 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day following such notice delivery (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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Buyer have recourse against any Seller for failing to cure a Margin Deficit with respect to the REO Entity Interests, and any recourse to the Guarantor for any such Margin Deficit shall be subject to the Recourse Limit.

(c) Buyer’s election not to deliver a Margin Call at any time there is a Margin Deficit shall not waive the Margin Deficit or in any way limit or impair Buyer’s right to deliver a Margin Call at any time when the same or any other Margin Deficit exists. Buyer’s rights under this Section 4.01 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other rights of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents or Requirements of Law.

(d) All cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Section 4.01 with respect to a Purchased Asset shall be deposited into the Waterfall Account or REO Collection Account, as applicable, except as directed by Buyer, and notwithstanding any provision in Section 5.02 to the contrary, shall be applied to reduce the Purchase Price of such Purchased Asset.

ARTICLE 7

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS

Each Seller (unless otherwise specified herein) represents and warrants, on and as of the date of this Agreement, each Purchase Date, and at all times when any Repurchase Document or Transaction is in full force and effect, as follows:

PC REO has no Guarantee Obligations.

Section 7.02 Repurchase Documents. Each Repurchase Document to which Seller is a party has been duly executed and delivered by Seller and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Insolvency Laws and general principles of equity. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of each Repurchase Document to which it is a party do not and will not (a) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, any (i) Governing Document, Indebtedness,

Guarantee Obligation or Contractual Obligation applicable to Seller or any of its properties or assets, (ii) Requirements of Law, or (iii) approval, consent, judgment, decree, order or demand of any Governmental Authority, or (b) result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of the properties or assets of Seller.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Repurchase Documents do not require compliance by Seller with any “bulk sales” or similar law. There is no material litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller threatened, against Seller or any Affiliate thereof before any Governmental Authority (a) asserting the invalidity of any Repurchase Document, (b) seeking to prevent the consummation of any Transaction, or (c) seeking any determination or ruling that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

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

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

Section 7.05 Financial Condition. The audited balance sheet of each of Seller and Servicer as of the fiscal year most recently ended for which such audited balance sheet is available, and the related audited statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the fiscal year then ended, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year, reported on without a “going concern” or like qualification arising out of the audit conducted by each of Seller’s and Servicer’s respective independent certified public accountants, copies of which have been delivered to Buyer, are complete and correct and present fairly the financial condition of Seller and Servicer (as the case may be) as of such date and the results of its operations and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended. All such financial statements, including related schedules and notes, were prepared in accordance with GAAP except as disclosed therein. Neither Seller nor Servicer has any material contingent liability or liability for taxes or any long term lease or unusual forward or long term commitment, including any Derivative Contract, which is not reflected in the foregoing statements or notes. Since the date of the financial statements and other information delivered to Buyer prior to the Closing Date, neither Seller nor Servicer has sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any material part of its property or assets (except pursuant to the Repurchase Documents) or acquired any property or assets (including Equity Interests of any other Person) that are material in relation to the financial condition of Seller.

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

Section 7.07 Compliance with Laws. Seller has complied in all material respects with all Requirements of Laws, and no Purchased Asset contravenes any Requirements of Laws. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller (a) is an “enemy” or an “ally of the enemy” as defined in the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917, (b) is in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Laws, (c) is a blocked person described in Section 1 of Executive Order 13224 or to its knowledge engages in any dealings or transactions or is otherwise associated with any such blocked person, (d) is in violation of any country or list based economic and trade sanction administered and enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, (e) is a Sanctioned Entity, (f) has more than 10% of its assets located in Sanctioned Entities, or (g) derives more than 10% of its operating income from investments in or transactions with Sanctioned Entities. The proceeds of any Transaction have not been and will not be used to fund any operations in, finance any investments or activities in or make any payments to a Sanctioned Entity. Seller is a “qualified purchaser” as defined in the Investment Company Act. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller (a) is or is controlled by an “investment company” as defined in such Act or is exempt from the provisions of the Investment Company Act, (b) is a “broker” or “dealer” as defined in, or could be subject to a liquidation proceeding under, the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970, or (c) is subject to regulation

by any Governmental Authority limiting its ability to incur the Repurchase Obligations. No properties presently or previously owned or leased by Seller, any Affiliate of Seller or their respective predecessors contain or previously contained any Materials of Environmental Concern that constitute or constituted a violation of Environmental Laws or reasonably could be expected to give rise to liability of Seller thereunder. Seller has no Knowledge of any violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability of Seller under any Environmental Law. Materials of Environmental Concern have not been released, transported, generated, treated, stored or disposed of in violation of Environmental Laws or in a manner that reasonably could be expected to give rise to liability of Seller. Seller and all Affiliates of Seller are in compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 and any foreign counterpart thereto. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller has made, offered, promised or authorized a payment of money or anything else of value (a) in order to assist in obtaining or retaining business for or with, or directing business to, any foreign official, foreign political party, party official or candidate for foreign political office, (b) to any foreign official, foreign political party, party official or candidate for foreign political office, or (c) with the intent to induce the recipient to misuse his or her official position to direct business wrongfully to Seller, any Affiliate of Seller or any other Person, in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Section 7.08 Compliance with ERISA. With respect to Seller, Servicer or any ERISA Affiliate thereof, during the immediately preceding five (5) year period, (a) neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” nor “an unpaid minimum required contribution” as defined in the Code or ERISA has occurred, (b) each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Code and ERISA, (c) no termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred resulting in any liability that has remained underfunded, and (d) no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Single Employer Plan (based on the assumptions used for the purposes of Financial Accounting Statement Bulletin 87) relating to Seller, Servicer or any ERISA Affiliate thereof did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date hereof, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accumulated benefit obligations. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller is currently subject to any liability for a complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan. Seller does not provide any medical or health benefits to former employees other than as required by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, as amended, or similar state or local law (collectively, “COBRA.”) at no cost to the employer. None of the assets of Seller are deemed to be plan assets within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. 2510.3-101 as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA.

Section 7.09 No Default or Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default exists. No default or event of default (however defined) exists under any Indebtedness, Guarantee Obligations or Contractual Obligations of Seller. Seller believes that it is and will be able to pay and perform each agreement, duty, obligation and covenant contained in the Repurchase Documents and Asset Documents to which it is a party, and that it is not subject to any agreement, obligation, restriction or Requirements of Law which would unduly burden its ability to do so or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Seller has no Knowledge of any actual or prospective development, event or other fact that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Internal Control Event has occurred. Seller has delivered to Buyer all underlying servicing agreements (or provided the Buyer with access to a service, internet website or other system where the Buyer can successfully access such

agreements) with respect to the Purchased Assets and Underlying Assets, and to Seller’s Knowledge no material default or event of default (however defined) exists thereunder. No default or event of default (however defined) on the part of Seller exists under any credit facilities, repurchase facilities or substantially similar facilities of Seller that are presently in effect.

Section 7.10 Purchased Assets. Each Purchased Asset is an Eligible Asset. Each representation and warranty of the Seller set forth in the Repurchase Documents (including those contained in Schedules 1-A, 1-B and 1-C applicable to related Purchased Asset) and the Asset Documents with respect to each Purchased Asset is true and correct. The review and inquiries made on behalf of Seller in connection with the next preceding sentence have been made by Persons having the requisite expertise, knowledge and background to verify such representations and warranties. Seller has complied with all requirements of the Custodial Agreement with respect to each Purchased Asset, including delivery to Custodian of all required Asset Documents. Seller has no Knowledge of any fact that could reasonably lead it to expect that any Purchased Asset will not be paid in full or the Market Value thereon not be obtained or realized. No Purchased Asset is or has been the subject of any compromise, adjustment, extension, satisfaction, subordination, rescission, setoff, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, deduction, reduction, termination or modification, whether arising out of transactions concerning such Purchased Asset or otherwise, by Seller or any Affiliate thereof, Transferor, Underlying Obligor or other Person, except as set forth in the Asset Documents delivered to Buyer. Each proposed Purchased Asset was acquired in accordance with and satisfies applicable standards established by Seller or any Affiliate thereof. None of the Asset Documents has any marks or notations indicating that it has been sold, assigned, pledged, encumbered or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than Buyer. If any Asset Document requires the holder or transferee of the related Purchased Asset to be a qualified transferee, qualified institutional lender or qualified lender (however defined), Seller meets such requirement. Assuming that Buyer also meets such requirement, the assignment and pledge of such Purchased Asset to Buyer pursuant to the Repurchase Documents do not violate such Asset Document. Seller and all Affiliates of Seller (a) have sold and transferred all Servicing Rights with respect to the Purchased Assets to Buyer, and (b) have no Retained Rights except as may be provided in the Repurchase Documents. At Buyer’s election (and, prior to an Event of Default, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense), Buyer may complete and record any or all of the Blank Assignment Documents as further evidence of Buyer’s ownership interest in the related Purchased Assets.

Section 7.11 Purchased Assets Acquired from Transferors. With respect to each Purchased Asset purchased by Seller or an Affiliate of Seller from a Transferor, (a) such Purchased Asset was acquired and transferred on a true sale basis pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, (b) such Transferor received reasonably equivalent value in consideration for the transfer of such Purchased Asset, (c) no such transfer was made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by such Transferor to Seller or an Affiliate of Seller, (d) no such transfer is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code, and (e) the representations and warranties made by such Transferor to Seller or such Affiliate in such Purchase Agreement are hereby incorporated herein mutatis mutandis and are hereby remade by Seller to Buyer on each date as of which they speak in such Purchase Agreement.

Section 7.12 Transfer and Security Interest. The Repurchase Documents constitute a valid and effective transfer to Buyer of all right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under all Purchased Assets (together with all related Servicing Rights with respect to such Purchased Assets), free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens). With respect to the protective security interest granted by Seller in Section 11.01, upon the delivery of the Confirmations and the Asset Documents to Custodian, and the filing of the UCC financing statements as provided herein, such security interest shall be a valid first priority perfected security interest to the extent such security interest can be perfected by possession, filing or control under the UCC, subject only to Permitted Liens. Upon receipt by Custodian of each Asset Document required to be endorsed in blank by Seller and payment by Buyer of the Purchase Price for the related Purchased Asset, Buyer shall either own such Purchased Asset and the related Asset Documents or have a valid first priority perfected security interest in such Asset Document. The Purchased Assets constitute the following, as defined in the UCC: a general intangible, instrument, investment property, security, deposit account, financial asset, uncertificated security, certificated security, securities account, or security entitlement. Seller has not sold, assigned, pledged, encumbered or otherwise conveyed any of the Purchased Assets or Underlying Assets to any Person other than pursuant to the Repurchase Documents. Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any UCC financing statements filed against Seller as debtor that include the Purchased Assets or Underlying Assets, other than any financing statement that has been terminated or filed pursuant to this Agreement or any other Repurchase Document.

Section 7.13 No Broker. Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller has dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other Person, except for Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, who may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with any Transaction.

Section 7.14 Separateness. Seller is in compliance with the requirements of Article 9.

Section 7.15 Other Indebtedness. All Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness as evidenced by this Agreement or Indebtedness to Seller’s or Servicer’s sole stockholder or member included in the calculation of Adjusted Tangible Net Worth) of the Seller or Servicer existing on the date hereof are listed on Schedule 4 hereto.

Section 7.16 Location of Books and Records. The location where Seller keeps its books and records, including all computer tapes and records relating to the Purchased Assets and Underlying Assets is its chief executive office.

Section 7.17 Chief Executive Office; Jurisdiction of Organization. On the Closing Date, chief executive office of (i) PMC is and has been located at 00000 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, (ii) PMIT is and has been located at 00000 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 and (iii) PC REO is and has been located at 00000 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000. On the Closing Date, the jurisdiction of organization of (x) PMC is Delaware, (y) PMIT is Delaware and (z) PC REO is Delaware. Seller shall provide Buyer with thirty (30) days advance notice of any change in Seller’s principal office or place of business or jurisdiction. Except as set forth on Schedule 7.17, Seller has no trade name. Seller was previously known as TRS I, Inc. and, since the date of its incorporation, has not been known by or done business under any other name, corporate or fictitious, and has not filed or had filed against it any bankruptcy receivership or similar petitions nor has it made any assignments for the benefit of creditors.

Section 7.18 Investment Company Act. None of Seller or any Affiliate thereof is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.

Section 7.19 REMIC Declaration Agreement. All of the representations and warranties of PMC in any REMIC Declaration Agreement related to a Purchased REMIC Certificate are true and correct in all material respects and are incorporated herein by reference mutatis mutandis. PMC is not in default under any related REMIC Declaration Agreement related to any Purchased REMIC Certificate.

Section 7.20 REO Entity Interests.

The shares of REO Entity Interests issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date constitute all the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the Capital Stock of PC REO.

(a) All of the shares of REO Entity Interests have been duly and validly issued in compliance with applicable law and related organizational documents and are fully paid and nonassessable.

(b) PMC is the record and beneficial owner of, and has title to, the REO Entity Interests representing substantially all of the economic interests in PC REO, free of any and all liens or options in favor, of, or claims of, any other Person, except the interests created by the Repurchase Documents or by or through Buyer.

(c) REO Entity Interests are unencumbered, other than Liens created in favor of Buyer pursuant to the Repurchase Documents created by or through Buyer.

(d) It is the intent of the parties hereto that the REO Entity Interests constitute “securities” as that term is defined in Section 8-102 of the Uniform Commercial Code and that the REO Entity Interests be governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 7.21 Adverse Selection. No procedures believed by Seller to be adverse to Buyer were utilized by Seller, Servicer or Investment Advisor in identifying or selecting the proposed Purchased Assets for sale to Buyer.

From the date hereof until the Repurchase Obligations are paid in full and the Repurchase Documents are terminated, each Seller (unless otherwise specified herein) shall perform and observe the following covenants, which shall (a) be given independent effect (so that if a particular action or condition is prohibited by any covenant, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to or be otherwise within the limitations of another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists), and (b) shall also apply to all Subsidiaries of each Seller:

Seller shall enter into each Transaction as principal, unless Buyer agrees before a Transaction that Seller may enter into such Transaction as agent for a principal and under terms and conditions disclosed to Buyer.

Section 8.02 Compliance with Laws, Contractual Obligations and Repurchase Documents. Seller shall comply in all material respects with all Requirements of Laws, including those relating to any Purchased Asset and to the reporting and payment of taxes. No part of the proceeds of any Transaction shall be used for any purpose that violates Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Seller shall conduct the requisite due diligence in connection with the origination or acquisition of each Asset for purposes of complying with the Anti-Terrorism Laws, including with respect to the legitimacy of the applicable Underlying Obligor and the origin of the assets used by such Person to purchase the Underlying Mortgaged Property, and will maintain sufficient information to identify such Person for purposes of the Anti-Terrorism Laws.

Seller shall ensure that all Equity Interests of Seller shall continue to be owned by the owner or owners thereof as of the date hereof. Seller shall ensure that neither the Equity Interests of Seller nor any property or assets of Seller shall be pledged to any Person other than Buyer. Seller shall not enter into any transaction with an Affiliate of Seller unless such transaction is on market and arm’s-length terms and conditions.

Section 8.04 Protection of Buyer’s Interest in Purchased Assets. With respect to each Purchased Asset and the Underlying Mortgage Loans (except to the extent any of PMC’s rights,

title and interest in such Underlying Mortgage Loans have been legally and validly sold, transferred and assigned by PMC to the Class A Participant in accordance with the related REMIC Declaration Agreement), Seller shall take all action necessary or required by the Repurchase Documents, Asset Documents or Requirements of Law, or requested by Buyer, to perfect, protect and more fully evidence the security interest granted in the Repurchase Documents and Buyer’s ownership of and first priority perfected security interest in such Purchased Asset and related Asset Documents, including executing or causing to be executed (a) such other instruments or notices as may be necessary or appropriate and filing and maintaining effective UCC financing statements, continuation statements and assignments and amendments thereto, and (b) all documents necessary to both collaterally and absolutely and unconditionally assign all rights (but none of the obligations) of Seller under each Purchase Agreement, in each case as additional collateral security for the payment and performance of each of the Repurchase Obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller grants a Lien on any Purchased Asset in violation of this Section 8.04 or any other Repurchase Document, Seller shall be deemed to have simultaneously granted an equal and ratable Lien on such Purchased Asset in favor of Buyer to the extent such Lien has not already been granted to Buyer; provided, that such equal and ratable Lien shall not cure any resulting Event of Default. Seller shall not materially amend, modify, waive or terminate any provision of any Purchase Agreement or Servicing Agreement. Seller shall not, or permit Servicer to, extend, amend, waive, terminate, rescind, cancel, release or otherwise modify the material terms of or any collateral, guaranty or indemnity for, or exercise any material right or remedy of a holder (including all lending, corporate and voting rights, remedies, consents, approvals and waivers) of, any Purchased Asset or Asset Document except in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Servicing Standard. Seller shall xxxx its computer records and tapes to evidence the interests granted to Buyer hereunder. Seller shall not take any action to cause any Purchased Asset that is not evidenced by an instrument or chattel paper (as defined in the UCC) to be so evidenced. If a Purchased Asset becomes evidenced by an instrument or chattel paper, the same shall be immediately delivered to Custodian on behalf of Buyer, together with endorsements required by Buyer.

If an Event of Default exists, at the option of Buyer, exercised by notice to Sellers (which option shall be deemed to be exercised, even if no notice is given, automatically and immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 10.01(f), (g) or (j)), the Repurchase Date for all Purchased Assets shall be deemed automatically and immediately to occur (the date on which such option is exercised or deemed to be exercised, the “Accelerated Repurchase Date”). If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the foregoing option:

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

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

(c) Buyer may complete any assignments, allonges, endorsements, powers or other documents or instruments executed in blank and otherwise obtain physical possession of all Records and all other instruments, certificates and documents then held by Custodian under the Custodial Agreement. Buyer may obtain physical possession of all Servicing Files,

Servicing Records, Servicing Agreement and other files and records of Sellers or Servicer. Sellers shall deliver to Buyer such assignments and other documents with respect thereto as Buyer shall request.

(d) Buyer may immediately, at any time and from time to time, exercise either of the following remedies with respect to any or all of the Purchased Assets: (i) sell such Purchased Assets on a servicing-released basis in a recognized market and by means of a public or private sale at such price or prices as Buyer accepts, and apply the net proceeds thereof in accordance with Article 5, or (ii) retain such Purchased Assets and give Sellers credit against the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets (or if the amount of such credit exceeds the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets, to other Repurchase Obligations due and any other amounts then owing to Buyer by any other Person pursuant to any Repurchase Document, in such order and in such amounts as determined by Buyer), in an amount equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Assets. Until such time as Buyer exercises either such remedy with respect to a Purchased Asset, Buyer may hold such Purchased Asset for its own account and retain all Income with respect thereto.

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

(f) Buyer shall have the right to direct Servicer to remit all collections on the Purchased Assets to Buyer, and if any such payments are received by the Sellers, Guarantor or Servicer, Sellers shall not and shall not permit Guarantor or Servicer to commingle the amounts received with other funds of the Sellers, Guarantor or Servicer and shall promptly pay them over to Buyer. Buyer shall also have the right to terminate Servicer with or without cause. In addition, Buyer shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Assets and liquidate all Purchased Assets. Such disposition of Purchased Assets may be, at Buyer’s option, on a servicing-released basis. Buyer shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Assets with respect to any such disposition thereof. Buyer may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Assets. The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Assets and liquidation of the Purchased Assets shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof. Sellers agree that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Buyer to dispose of the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased 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 Assets in a pool for issuance of mortgage-backed securities at the then-prevailing price for such securities and to sell such securities for such prevailing price in the open market. Buyer shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Assets individually for the prevailing price. Buyer shall also be entitled, to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Assets, to give the

Sellers credit for such Purchased Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Assets against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by the Sellers hereunder.

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

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

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

(j) Each Seller hereby appoints Buyer as attorney-in-fact of such Seller for purposes of carrying out the Repurchase Documents and Buyer’s rights under this Section 10.02, including executing, endorsing and recording any instruments or documents and taking any other actions that Buyer deems necessary or advisable to accomplish such purposes (the “Repurchase Document Purposes”), which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default Buyer shall be entitled to use appointment to carry out the Repurchase Document Purposes.

(k) Buyer may, without prior notice to Sellers, exercise any or all of its set-off rights including those set forth in Section 18.17. This Section 10.02(k) shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which any Party is at any time otherwise entitled.

(l) All rights and remedies of Buyer under the Repurchase Documents, including those set forth in Section 18.17, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that Buyer may have and may be exercised at any time when an Event of Default exists. Such rights and remedies may be enforced without prior judicial process or hearing. Each Seller agrees that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s-length. Each Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses such Seller might have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process or otherwise arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Assets, or any other election of remedies.

ARTICLE 11

SECURITY INTEREST; REO DEED

Section 11.01 Grant.

(a) Buyer and Sellers intend that all Transactions shall be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Assets and not loans from Buyer to Sellers secured by the Purchased Assets. However, to preserve and protect Buyer’s rights with respect to the Purchased Assets and under the Repurchase Documents in the event that any Governmental Authority recharacterizes the Transactions as other than sales, and as security for Sellers’ performance of the Repurchase Obligations, each Seller hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a fully perfected first priority security interest in all of its rights, title and interest in, to and under the Purchased Assets (which for this purpose shall be deemed to include the items described in the proviso in the definition thereof) and the transfers of the Purchased Assets to Buyer shall be deemed to constitute and confirm such grant, to secure the payment and performance of the Repurchase Obligations (including the obligation of Sellers to pay the Repurchase Price, or if the Transactions are recharacterized as loans, to repay such loans for the Repurchase Price).

(b) Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Purchased Assets (including without limitation, any security interest Sellers may have in the Purchased Assets and any other collateral granted by Sellers to Buyer pursuant to any other agreement) are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer hereunder. Each Seller further acknowledges that it has no rights to the Servicing Rights related to the Purchased Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a Seller is deemed to retain any residual Servicing Rights related to the Purchased Assets, such Seller grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Servicing Rights as indicated hereinabove. In addition, (x) Sellers shall and shall cause, Servicer to grant, assign and pledge to Buyer a first priority security interest in and to all Servicing Records and rights to receive Servicing Records or other documents which constitute a part of the Asset Document or Servicing File with respect to each of the Purchased Assets, and all Income related to the Purchased Assets received by Sellers or Servicer and all rights to receive such Income, and all products, proceeds and distributions relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing and (y) PMC grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Underlying Mortgage Loans supporting each Purchased REMIC Certificate, together with the related Servicing Rights, the related Records, amounts and property from time to time on deposit in the Participation Account and the Participation Account itself and all Income related to such Underlying Mortgage Loans received by PMC or Servicer and all rights to receive such Income, and all products, proceeds and distributions relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing, in each case except to the extent any of PMC’s rights, title and interest therein have been legally and validly sold, transferred and assigned by PMC to the Class A Participant as part of the issuance of REMIC Certificates in accordance with the related REMIC Declaration Agreement (collectively, and together with the pledge of Servicing Rights in the immediately preceding sentence, the “Related Credit Enhancement”). The Related Credit Enhancement is hereby pledged as further security for Sellers’ Repurchase Obligations to Buyer hereunder.

Section 11.02 Effect of Grant. If any circumstance described in Section 11.01 occurs, (a) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement as defined in the UCC, (b) Buyer shall have all of the rights and remedies provided to a secured party by Requirements of Law (including the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and the right to set off any mutual debt and claim) and under any other agreement between Buyer and Sellers, (c) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Assets against all of the Repurchase Obligations, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency, (d) the possession by Buyer or any of its agents, including Custodian, of the Asset Documents, the Purchased Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents, securities or chattel paper shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party for purposes of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law, and (e) notifications to Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the secured party for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law. The security interest of Buyer granted herein shall be, and each Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that it is, a first priority perfected security interest. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) each Purchased Asset secures the Repurchase Obligations of Sellers with respect to all other Transactions and all other Purchased Assets, including any Purchased Assets that are junior in priority to the Purchased Asset in question, and (B) if an Event of Default exists, no Purchased Asset relating to a Purchased Asset will be released from Buyer’s Lien or transferred to Sellers until the Repurchase Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repurchase Obligations (other than with respect to the Purchased REO Entity Interests) shall be full recourse to Sellers.

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

Section 11.04 Provisions of REO Deed.

(a) If any Seller shall acquire, or contemplate the acquisition of, any REO Property or desires to extinguish any Mortgage Note in connection with the foreclosure of the related Eligible Mortgage Loan, a transfer of the real property underlying the Mortgage Note in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer of such real property, such Seller shall cause such real property to be owned in fee simple by REO Deed in the name of PC REO. Each such REO Deed shall be duly executed, be in recordable form in accordance with applicable law and, shall have been recorded in or delivered for recordation to the recordation office of the jurisdiction in which the REO Property is located.

(b) PMC shall cause PC REO, with respect to any REO Property owned by it or transferred to it, to deliver a correct and complete REO Property File to Buyer or its designee

as a condition precedent to any Transaction involving such REO Property. A certified copy of the file-stamped REO Deed shall be delivered to Buyer promptly upon receipt thereof by any Seller. Each copy of an REO Deed delivered to the Buyer or its designee as part of an REO Property File (including intervening deeds) shall be a true, correct and complete copy of the original REO Deed, and if recorded in the name of PC REO (as indicated on the related REO Property Schedule), the original REO Deed shall be in recordable form, acceptable in all respects for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the REO Property is located and shall have been delivered for recordation to the appropriate recording office. Each title commitment, ‘date-down’ or trustee’s sale guarantee delivered to the Buyer or its designee as part of an REO Property File shall be a true, correct and complete copy of the original document.

(c) All costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and filing or recording of any REO Deed, and any filing, transfer or recording tax or other charges with respect thereto shall be borne by Sellers.

(d) Upon the acquisition of title to an REO Property by PC REO, PC REO will be deemed to make the representations and warranties hereto with respect to such REO Property as set forth in Section 7.18 and Schedule 1-B attached hereto. Sellers shall, at their sole cost and expense, take all such other steps as may be necessary in connection with the preservation of Buyer’s rights in and interests to the REO Entity Interests.

(e) If PMC shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate evidencing any option rights or any other equity interest in PC REO, whether in addition to, in substitution for, as a conversion of, or in exchange for the REO Entity Interests, or otherwise in respect thereof, PMC shall assign and deliver the same forthwith to Buyer in the exact form received, duly indorsed by PMC, together with an undated transfer power, if required, covering such certificate duly executed in blank. Any sums paid upon or in respect of REO Entity Interests upon the liquidation or dissolution of the REO Entity shall be paid over to Buyer and applied to the payment of the outstanding Repurchase Price.

(f) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, PMC shall be permitted to exercise all voting and member rights inuring to each of them with respect to the REO Entity Interests in accordance with the terms of the PC REO Trust Agreement; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or member right exercised or other action taken which would impair such REO Entity Interests or Buyer’s rights to such REO Entity Interests or which would be inconsistent with or result in a violation of any provision of this Agreement. Without the prior consent of Buyer, PMC shall not (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit PC REO to issue any equity interests of any nature or to issue any other equity interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any equity interests of PC REO, or (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, REO Entity Interests or (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, REO Entity Interests, or any interest therein, except for the Lien provided for by this Agreement, or (iv) enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement) or undertaking restricting the right or ability of PMC to sell, pledge, assign or transfer any REO Entity Interests.

Section 11.05 Waiver of Certain Laws. Each Seller agrees, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Purchased Assets may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Purchased Assets, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each Seller, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Purchased Assets marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that Buyer or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Purchased Assets as an entirety or in such parcels as Buyer or such court may determine.

ARTICLE 12

INCREASED COSTS; CAPITAL ADEQUACY

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

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

Section 12.03 Breakfunding. Sellers shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any loss, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) which Buyer may sustain or incur arising from (a) the failure by Sellers to terminate any Transaction after a Seller has given a notice of termination pursuant to Section 3.04, (b) any failure by a Seller to sell Eligible Assets to Buyer after a Seller has notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such Eligible Assets in accordance with this Agreement, or (c) any conversion of the Pricing Rate to the Alternative Rate because the LIBO Rate is not available for any reason on a day that is not the last day of the then current Pricing Period.

Section 12.04 Increased Costs. If the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer made after the date of this Agreement (a) shall subject Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Repurchase Documents, any Purchased Asset or any Transaction, or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof (except for income taxes and any changes in the rate of

tax on Buyer’s overall net income), (b) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer, or (c) shall impose on Buyer any other condition; and the result of any of the preceding clauses (a), (b) and (c) is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount that Buyer deems to be material, of entering into, continuing or maintaining Transactions, or to reduce any amount receivable under the Repurchase Documents in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Sellers shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as reasonably necessary to fully compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. Upon written notice to Sellers of any change or event pursuant to which additional amounts are due or to become due under this Section 12.04, Sellers shall (a) pay all additional amounts due under this Section 12.04 which are incurred or accrue beginning thirty (30) days following such written notice or (b) repurchase all of the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 3.05 prior to thirty (30) days following such written notice.

Section 12.05 Capital Adequacy. If Buyer determines that the adoption of or any change in any Requirements of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation Controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made after the date of this Agreement has or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material, then, in any such case, Sellers shall pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as reasonably necessary to fully compensate Buyer for such reduction. Upon written notice to Sellers of any change or event pursuant to which additional amounts are due or to become due under this Section 12.05, Sellers shall (a) pay all additional amounts due under this Section 12.05 which are incurred or accrue beginning thirty (30) days following such written notice or (b) repurchase all of the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 3.05 prior to thirty (30) days following such written notice.

Section 12.06 Withholding Taxes. (a) All payments made by Sellers to Buyer or any other Indemnified Person under the Repurchase Documents and by Underlying Obligors with respect to the Purchased Assets shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto imposed by any Governmental Authority therewith or thereon, excluding income taxes, branch profits taxes, franchise taxes or any other tax imposed on net income by the United States, a state or a foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which Buyer or such other Indemnified Person is organized or of its applicable lending office, or a state or foreign jurisdiction with respect to which Buyer or such other Indemnified Person has a present or former connection, or any political subdivision thereof (collectively, “Taxes”), all of which shall be paid by Sellers for their own account not later than the date when due. If any taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to Buyer and/or any other Indemnified Person, then Sellers shall (a) make such deduction or withholding, (b) pay the amount so deducted or withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority not later than the date when due; and (c) pay to Buyer or

other Indemnified Person such additional amounts (the “Additional Amount”) as may be necessary so that every net payment made under this Agreement after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including any Taxes on such increase and any penalties) is not less than the amount that would have been paid absent such deduction or withholding. The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts, however, will not apply with respect to (i) net income or franchise taxes imposed on Buyer and/or any other Indemnified Person, with respect to payments required to be made by Sellers under the Repurchase Documents, by a taxing jurisdiction in which Buyer and/or any other Indemnified Person is organized, conducts business or is paying taxes (as the case may be). Promptly after Sellers pay any taxes referred to in this Section 12.06, Sellers will send Buyer appropriate evidence of such payment, or (ii) any U.S. federal withholding tax imposed on “withholdable payments” made after December 31, 2012, if the Buyer is a “foreign financial institution” that fails to comply with the requirements of section 1471(b) of the Code or a “non-financial foreign entity” that fails to comply with section 1472(b) of the Code, each as in effect on the date hereof, or Treasury regulations or administrative guidance promulgated thereunder.

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

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

(d) If a Person acquires any of the rights and obligations of Buyer as an Eligible Assignee under this Agreement, and such Person is not organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (a “Non-U.S. Person”), such Non-U.S. Person shall deliver to Sellers on or before the date on which such Person becomes a party to this Agreement, two duly completed and executed copies of, as applicable, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor forms thereto designated as such by the IRS. If the Non-U.S. Person is eligible for and wishes to claim exemption from or reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax through benefit of a treaty, such Person shall deliver a Form W-8ECI. If the Non-U.S. Person is eligible for and wishes to claim exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” such Person shall deliver both the Form W-8BEN and a statement certifying that such Person is not a bank, a “10 percent shareholder” or a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3) of the Code. If any previously delivered form or statement becomes inaccurate with respect to the Non-U.S. Person that delivered it, the Non-U.S. Person shall promptly notify Sellers of this fact.

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

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

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

ARTICLE 13

parking areas, streets or ways, (vii) any failure by Sellers to perform or comply with any Repurchase Document, Asset Document or Purchased Asset, (viii) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of any Underlying Mortgaged Property or Purchased Asset, (ix) any claim by brokers, finders or similar Persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in connection with any lease or other transaction involving any Repurchase Document, Purchased Asset, Underlying Asset or Underlying Mortgaged Property, (x) any taxes attributable to the execution, delivery, filing or recording of any Repurchase Document, Asset Document or any memorandum of any of the foregoing, (xi) any Lien or claim arising on or against any Purchased Asset, Underlying Asset or related Underlying Mortgaged Property under any Requirements of Law or any liability asserted against Buyer or any Indemnified Person with respect thereto, (xii) (1) a past, present or future violation or alleged violation of any Environmental Laws in connection with any property or Underlying Mortgaged Property by any Person or other source, whether related or unrelated to Sellers or any Underlying Obligor, (2) any presence of any Materials of Environmental Concern in, on, within, above, under, near, affecting or emanating from any Underlying Mortgaged Property, (3) the failure to timely perform any Remedial Work, (4) any past, present or future activity by any Person or other source, whether related or unrelated to Sellers or any Underlying Obligor in connection with any actual, proposed or threatened use, treatment, storage, holding, existence, disposition or other release, generation, production, manufacturing, processing, refining, control, management, abatement, removal, handling, transfer or transportation to or from any Underlying Mortgaged Property of any Materials of Environmental Concern at any time located in, under, on, above or affecting any Underlying Mortgaged Property, (5) any past, present or future actual Release (whether intentional or unintentional, direct or indirect, foreseeable or unforeseeable) to, from, on, within, in, under, near or affecting any Underlying Mortgaged Property by any Person or other source, whether related or unrelated to Sellers or any Underlying Obligor, (6) the imposition, recording or filing or the threatened imposition, recording or filing of any Lien on any Underlying Mortgaged Property with regard to, or as a result of, any Materials of Environmental Concern or pursuant to any Environmental Law, or (7) any misrepresentation or failure to perform any obligations pursuant to any Repurchase Document or Asset Document relating to environmental matters in any way, or (xiii) a Seller’s conduct, activities, actions and/or inactions in connection with, relating to or arising out of any of the foregoing clauses of this Section 13.01, that, in each case, results from anything whatsoever other than any Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non-appealable judgment. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Person in connection with any Purchased Asset for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Purchased Asset, Sellers shall defend, indemnify and hold such Indemnified Person harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the account debtor or Underlying Obligor arising out of a breach by a Seller of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such account debtor or Underlying Obligor from Sellers. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 13.01 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by a Seller, an Indemnified Person or any other Person or any Indemnified Person is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any Transaction is entered into.

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

(c) An Indemnified Person may at any time send Sellers a notice showing the calculation of Indemnified Amounts, and Sellers shall pay such Indemnified Amounts to such Indemnified Person within ten (10) Business Days after Sellers receive such notices. The obligations of Sellers under this Section 13.01 shall apply to Eligible Assignees and Participants and survive the termination of this Agreement.

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

ARTICLE 14

INTENT

Section 14.01 Intent.

(a) The Parties intend (i) for each Transaction to qualify for the safe harbor treatment provided by the Bankruptcy Code and for Buyer to be entitled to all of the rights, benefits and protections afforded to Persons under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a “repurchase agreement” as defined in Section 101(47) of the Bankruptcy Code (except with respect to Purchased REO Entity Interests), a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code and that payments under this Agreement are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments,” as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) for the grant of a security interest set forth in Article 11 to also be a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “repurchase agreement” as defined in Section 101(47)(A)(v) of the Bankruptcy Code (except with respect to Purchased REO Entity Interests), and a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code and (iii) that Buyer (for so long as Buyer is a “financial institution,” “financial participant” or other entity listed in Section 555, 559, 362(b)(6), 362(b)(7) or 362(b)(27) of the Bankruptcy Code) shall be entitled to the “safe harbor” benefits and protections afforded under

the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a “repurchase agreement” (except with respect to Purchased REO Entity Interests) a “securities contract,” and a “master netting agreement” including (x) the rights, set forth in Article 10 and in Section 555, 559 (except with respect to Purchased REO Entity Interests) and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code, to liquidate the Purchased Assets and terminate this Agreement, and/or Transactions hereunder (y) the right to offset or net out as set forth in Article 10 and Section 18.17 and in Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(7) or 362(b)(27) of the Bankruptcy Code and (z) the non-avoidability of transfers made in connection with this Agreement as set forth in Section 546(e), 546(f) and 546(j) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that Buyer’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Articles 10 and 11 and as otherwise provided in the Repurchase Documents is a contractual right to liquidate such Transactions as described in Section 555, 559 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

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

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

ARTICLE 15

DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS

The Parties acknowledge that they have been advised and understand that:

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

(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the Parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 will not provide protection to the other Party with respect to any Transaction;

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

(a) It is not relying (for purposes of making any investment decision or otherwise) on any advice, counsel or representations (whether written or oral) of the other Party, other than the representations expressly set forth in the Repurchase Documents;

(b) It has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging and trading decisions (including decisions regarding the suitability of any Transaction) based on its own judgment and on any advice from such advisors as it has deemed necessary and not on any view expressed by the other Party;

Section 18.11 No Implied Waivers. No failure on the part of Buyer to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right or remedy under the Repurchase Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy thereunder preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies in the Repurchase Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Repurchase Documents, no amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Repurchase Documents shall be effective without the signed agreement of Sellers and Buyer.

HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED BY SELLERS AND EACH AFFILIATE OF EACH SELLER.

Buyer or any Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Sellers or Affiliate of each Seller after any such set-off and application made by Buyer or such Indemnified Person; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. If an amount or obligation is unascertained, Buyer may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant Party accounting to the other Party when the amount or obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this Section 18.17 shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Section 18.17 shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which any Party is at any time otherwise entitled.

Section 18.18 Power of Attorney. Sellers hereby authorize Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Purchased Assets without any Seller’s signature thereon as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate. Each Seller hereby appoints Buyer as such Seller’s agent and attorney in fact to execute any such financing statement or statements in such 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 Purchased Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing (including, but not limited, to sending “good-bye letters” on behalf of Sellers and Servicer to any Mortgagor in the form of Exhibit N with respect to Purchased Assets which are Mortgage Loans), and sign assignments on behalf of each Seller as its agent and attorney in fact. This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Buyer’s consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default hereunder. The Sellers shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 18.18. In addition, Sellers shall execute and deliver to Buyer and power of attorney in the form set forth in Exhibit K attached hereto (“Seller’s Power of Attorney”).

Section 18.19 Sellers’ Waiver of Setoff. Each Seller hereby waives any right of setoff it may have or to which it may be or become entitled under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise against Buyer, any Affiliate of Buyer, any Indemnified Person or their respective assets or properties.

Section 18.20 Periodic Due Diligence Review. Buyer may perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Assets, Sellers and Affiliates of any Seller, including ordering new third party reports, for purposes of, among other things, verifying compliance with the representations, warranties, ordering BPOs at any time during the term of this Agreement, covenants, agreements, duties, obligations and specifications made under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise. Upon reasonable prior notice to Sellers, unless a Default or Event of Default exists, in which case no notice is required, Buyer or its representatives may during normal business hours inspect any properties and examine, inspect and make copies of the books and records of Sellers and Affiliates of any Seller, the Asset Documents and the Servicing Files. Sellers shall make available to Buyer one or more knowledgeable financial or accounting officers and representatives of the independent certified public accountants of Sellers for the

100

purpose of answering questions of Buyer concerning any of the foregoing. Sellers shall cause Servicer to cooperate with Buyer by permitting Buyer to conduct due diligence reviews of the related Servicing Files and Servicing Records. Buyer may purchase Purchased Assets from Sellers based solely on the information provided by Sellers to Buyer in the Underwriting Materials and the representations, warranties, duties, obligations and covenants contained herein, and Buyer may at any time conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Assets, including ordering new credit reports and new appraisals on the Underlying Mortgaged Properties and otherwise regenerating the information used to originate and underwrite such Purchased Assets. Buyer may underwrite such Purchased Assets itself or engage a mutually acceptable third-party underwriter to do so. Sellers shall be responsible for all of the due diligence costs and expenses incurred by Buyer.

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

Section 18.23 Joint and Several Repurchase Obligations.

(a) Subject to Section 18.23(c), at all times when there is more than one Seller under this Agreement, each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) each Seller shall be jointly and severally liable to Buyer to the maximum extent permitted by Requirements of Law for each Transaction and all Repurchase Obligations, (ii) the liability of each Seller (A) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect (or be reinstated) until all Repurchase Obligations shall have been paid in full and the expiration of any applicable preference or similar period pursuant to any Insolvency Law, or at law or in equity, without any claim having been made before the expiration of such period asserting an interest in all or any part of any payment(s) received by Buyer, and (B) until such payment has been made, shall not be discharged, affected, modified or impaired on the occurrence from time to time of any event, including any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of each Seller, (1) the waiver, compromise, settlement, release, termination or amendment (including any extension or postponement of the time for payment or performance or renewal or refinancing) of any of the Repurchase Obligations, (2) the failure to give notice to each Seller of the occurrence of an Event of Default, (3) the release, substitution or exchange by Buyer of any Purchased Asset (whether with or without consideration) or the acceptance by Buyer of any additional collateral or the availability or claimed availability of any other collateral or source of repayment or any nonperfection or other impairment of collateral, (4) the release of any Person primarily or secondarily liable for all or any part of the Repurchase Obligations, whether by Buyer or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding affecting any Seller or any other Person who, or any of whose property, shall at the time in question be obligated in respect of the Repurchase Obligations or any part thereof, or (5) to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any other event, occurrence, action or circumstance that would, in the absence of this Section 18.22, result in the release or discharge of any or all of Sellers from the performance or observance of any Repurchase Obligation, (iii) Buyer shall not be required first to initiate any suit or to exhaust its remedies against any Seller or any other Person to become liable, or against any of the Purchased Assets, in order to enforce the Repurchase Documents and each Seller expressly agrees that, notwithstanding the occurrence of any of the foregoing, each Seller shall be and remain directly and primarily liable for all

101

sums due under any of the Repurchase Documents, (iv) when making any demand hereunder against any Seller, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on any other Seller, and any failure by Buyer to make any such demand or to collect any payments from any other Seller, or any release of any such other Seller shall not relieve any Seller in a respect of which a demand or collection is not made or Sellers not so released of their obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of Buyer against Sellers, and (v) on disposition by Buyer of any property encumbered by any Purchased Assets, each Seller shall be and shall remain jointly and severally liable for any deficiency.

(b) To the extent that any Seller (the “paying Seller”) pays more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, the paying Seller shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Seller that has not paid its proportionate share; provided, that the provisions of this Section 18.22 shall not limit the duties, covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of any Seller to Buyer, and, notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the paying Seller hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of the paying Seller by Buyer, the paying Seller shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Buyer against any other Seller or any collateral security or guarantee or right of setoff held by Buyer, nor shall the paying Seller seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any other Seller in respect of payments made by the paying Seller hereunder, until all Repurchase Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to the paying Seller on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all such amounts shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the paying Seller in trust for Buyer, segregated from other funds of the paying Seller, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the paying Seller, be turned over to Buyer in the exact form received by the paying Seller (duly indorsed by the paying Seller to Buyer, if required), to be applied against the Repurchase Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as Buyer may determine.

(c) The Repurchase Obligations with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Purchased REMIC Certificates are full recourse obligations to each Seller, and each Seller hereby forever waives, demises, acquits and discharges any and all defenses, and shall at no time assert or allege any defense to the contrary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer shall have no recourse to any Seller for any Repurchase Obligations with respect to the Purchased REO Entity Interests.

Section 18.24 Patriot Act Notice. Buyer hereby notifies Sellers that Buyer is required by the Patriot Act to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Sellers.

Section 18.25 Acknowledgement Of Anti-Predatory Lending Policies. Sellers and Buyer each have in place internal policies and procedures that expressly prohibit their purchase of any High Cost Mortgage Loan.

Section 18.26 Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Subject to the foregoing, the Repurchase Documents and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in the Repurchase Documents, express or implied, shall give to any Person other than the Parties any benefit or any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under the Repurchase Documents.
