If the Investor is the successful bidder at foreclosure sale or accepts a deed in lieu of foreclosure, Subservicer will have title to the Mortgaged Premises conveyed into any name designated by Investor, except that Subservicer will not itself accept or acquire title to REO. Subservicer has no responsibilities concerning REO unless the Investor requests that Subservicer pay the accruing real estate taxes on the REO until the Investor’s ultimate disposition of the REO. If requested by Lender, Subservicer shall also manage the marketing and maintenance of REO, using Subservicer’s standard practices and vendors for such services, in which case Subservicer shall: (i) provide for the eviction of any unauthorized persons or personal property from the REO pursuant to Applicable

Subservicer shall be entitled to recoup all of its actual expenses incurred under this Section 2.6 including court costs and attorney’s fees. Subservicer’s compensation for managing REO as provided for in this Section 2.6(c) is as provided in Section I.D of Schedule II. 2.7 Audits, Books and Records (a) Lender and its duly authorized employees, agents, accountants and financiers shall have the right, on reasonable prior written notice and during normal business hours of Subservicer, to review Subservicer’s books, records and accounts pertaining to the Mortgage Loans and subservicing thereof.

Any requests for Mortgage Loan audit or confirmation to be performed by Subservicer’s audit firm at Lender’s request on Lender’s Mortgage Loans shall be at Lender’s sole expense. (b) Subservicer will keep records satisfactory to Lender and Investor(s) pertaining to each Mortgage Loan, and subject to Applicable Requirements: (i) such records shall be the property of Lender; and (ii) upon any transfer of the related subservicing or upon expiration of this SA, such records shall be delivered to Lender or Lender’s designee at Lender’s expense. Subservicer shall deliver such records in the form and manner as are customarily used by Subservicer upon the transfer of servicing. 2.8 Insurance Subservicer will maintain in effect at all times and at its cost, a blanket fidelity bond acceptable to the Agencies. If so requested by Lender, Subservicer shall cause evidence of the existence of such coverage to be delivered to Lender. 2.9 Optional Services (see Schedule I) Lender shall have the right to elect the following optional services now offered by Subservicer: 2.9.1 Private Label Servicing (“PLS” Option) (a) If the related box appearing immediately after the signature blocks of the Parties to this SA contains an “X” at the time of execution of this SA by Lender, then Lender has elected to utilize PLS as offered by Subservicer. If Lender elects PLS, Subservicer will provide coupon books (or monthly statements if Lender elects the MBSO option) to the affected Mortgagors customized with the Lender’s logo and other camera-ready customized graphic designs provided by Lender, at its expense, in the format specified by Subservicer for such purposes. Lender hereby grants to Subservicer the non-exclusive license to use Lender’s name and logo, in any reasonable manner consistent with the purposes

of this SA; provided, however, that Subservicer shall not engage in any form of advertising utilizing either the name or logo of Lender without Lender’s prior written consent and authorization. (b) If Lender has elected to utilize PLS, the additional cost of same is specified in Section I.G of Schedule II. (c) Lender may not elect PLS unless Subservicer will subservice not less than one thousand (1,000) Mortgage Loans hereunder at the time of the First Transfer Date. 2.9.2 Monthly Borrower Statement Option (“MBSO”) (a) If the Parties hereafter so agree, or if the related box appearing immediately after the signature blocks of the Parties to this SA contains an “X” at the time of execution of this SA by Lender, then Lender has elected to utilize MBSO offered by Subservicer.

In the event that preparation and recording of any mortgage assignments or other documentation is required to perfect the eligibility of any Mortgage Loan to be a MERS Mortgage Loan, these functions remain the responsibility of Lender. Lender shall be either the owner of the servicing rights to, or the beneficial owner of each MERS Mortgage Loan. Subservicer shall be identified as the subservicer for each MERS Mortgage Loan. Prior to the registration of any MERS Mortgage Loan, each Party shall provide to the other its MERS “ORG ID” number, which shall be used by the other Party solely for the activities permitted pursuant to this SA. For each MERS Mortgage Loan, Lender will provide Subservicer with the Mortgage Identification Number (“MIN”) and designate whether or not it is a MERS as Original Mortgagee (“MOM”) loan. Such information shall be provided in a format reasonably specified by Subservicer. Following receipt of such information, Subservicer shall promptly populate the MIN, registration date, MOM and registration flag, and Lender’s and Subservicer’s ORG ID fields on the Fidelity System master file of the MERS Mortgage Loan. (2) The foreclosure of any MERS Mortgage Loan shall identify MERS as the mortgagee of record and party to whom title should be conveyed upon completion of foreclosure, unless

Lender otherwise designates in writing at the time Lender approved the MERS Mortgage Loan for foreclosure. If Lender requires that the foreclosure occur in a name other than MERS, Subservicer may elect to automatically, on an individual case basis, complete the deregistration of the MERS Mortgage Loan and, if reinstatement occurs, any re-registration of the MERS mortgage loan. (3) Lender shall be responsible for verifying all MERS information related to the MERS Mortgage Loans (including without limitation the validity of the MIN) and shall notify Subservicer in writing of any changes; provided, however, that Subservicer shall update MERS in connection with (1) any Mortgagor name change processed by Subservicer on the Fidelity system in connection with the transfer of any interest in the Mortgaged Premises or assumption of the MERS Mortgage Loan; (2) any foreclosure first legal action, reinstatement or liquidation of the Mortgaged Premises to the extent that such matters are directly handled by Subservicer under the terms of this SA; and (3) any release and satisfaction of a paid-in-full MERS Mortgage Loan. Lender shall be responsible for all Quality Assurance reviews of MERS Mortgage Loans, as such reviews are required from time to time by MERS. (4) For any MERS Mortgage Loan identified by Lender to Subservicer for servicing transfer and for which Lender provides sufficient information, Subservicer shall prepare a Transfer of Servicing (TOS) report from the Fidelity System service release workstation and transmit the TOS report to MERS. Subservicer may also, at its election, provide such transfer information to MERS manually or by other means of interface with MERS. Lender and the party to whom the MERS Mortgage Loan is to be transferred shall be responsible for review and verification of transfer information, confirmation or correction of the terms of transfer, and all documentation required by MERS in connection with the transfer. Subservicer may elect to perform this function on behalf of Lender provided all necessary information is provided in a timely manner. (5) At all times during the Term of this SA, Lender shall maintain such authorizations with MERS as are necessary to permit Subservicer to perform its obligations. Lender acknowledges that Subservicer shall be entitled to execute on behalf of Lender, or authorize MERS to execute on behalf of Lender or in MERS own name, documents to the same extent as Subservicer or its designated employees, as officers of Lender, are authorized to execute documents in Lender’s name pursuant to the terms of this SA. Upon request of the Subservicer, Lender shall adopt such resolutions or ratify the scope of authority of such resolutions with respect to MERS Mortgage Loans. (6) Lender shall be responsible for maintaining any investor, warehouse financing, permanent financing or securitization information on MERS for the MERS Mortgage Loans for obtaining any consents required by MERS of any parties holding any ownership or collateral security interest in connection with the registration, deregistration, release or transfer of any interest in a MERS Mortgage Loan. (7) All MERS costs and expenses associated with MERS Mortgage Loans, whether incurred by third parties or billed by MERS, shall be billed to and paid by Lender, excepting only that Subservicer shall bear the cost of maintaining its MERS membership. (b) The Parties acknowledge that the subservicing of MERS Mortgage Loans is being made at Lender’s request and direction and for Lender’s convenience and, as a result thereof, Subservicer

shall, except to the extent that Subservicer fails to fulfill its express undertakings with respect to MERS Mortgage Loans pursuant to this SA, be entitled to full indemnification by Lender pursuant to Section 8.3. Each Party shall promptly notify the other of any claim or demand filed by MERS or any other party with respect to a MERS Mortgage Loan. (c) The additional cost to Lender for MERS Mortgage Loans is specified in Section I.L of Schedule II. ARTICLE III – AGREEMENTS OF LENDER 3.1 Documentation Lender shall provide (or cause any transferor servicer or subservicer of any Mortgage Loans to provide) to Subservicer, at no cost to Subservicer: (a) Before commencement of subservicing hereunder, copies of all files, documents and record which are deemed necessary or appropriate by Subservicer to receive in order to conduct the subservicing of the Mortgage Loans currently in Lender’s portfolio as of Transfer Date. It is understood that Subservicer shall not receive and is not responsible for safeguarding Lender’s original documents unless Subservicer has requested and received same; (b) applicable documentation for each Mortgage Loan to be subserviced hereunder, to enable Subservicer to convert or audit all required database fields and to continue subservicing the Mortgage Loan on Subservicer’s Fidelity System, without necessity of special enhancements, optional subsystems or special programming. All such documentation must be delivered to Subservicer promptly, either before or just after the related Transfer Date, and, in all events, within a reasonable amount of time before any Investor reporting is due from Subservicer; (c) if applicable and as soon as possible, a complete and accurate listing of any Mortgage Loans where the Mortgage Loan payment is inclusive of personal or group insurance, in any such detail as Subservicer may reasonably require, including without limitation the name of the insurance company, type of premium coverage, premium amount, and the name and telephone number of the individual at Lender’s firm or affiliate knowledgeable of such coverage. (d) written evidence (or appropriate electronic data confirming) that a hazard insurance policy is in force for each Mortgage Loan delivered to Subservicer for subservicing. Prior to the transfer date for Original Subservicing Mortgage Loans and with sufficient time prior to policy expiration, Lender will notify all carriers of hazard insurance policies to send all future notifications to or at the direction of Subservicer. Lender will indemnify and hold Subservicer harmless from any loss or damage resulting from lapse or insufficient coverage of hazard insurance coverage or insufficient evidence of coverage delivered to Subservicer on or before the related Transfer Date; and (e) for each Mortgage Loan to be subserviced hereunder, all at Lender’s cost, the transfer of any existing real estate tax service contracts and transferable life of loan flood zone determination to Subservicer; see the provisions of Section 1.E of Schedule II concerning real estate tax service contracts or transferable life of loan flood zone determinations not then in existence.

3.2 Further Notification Lender shall: (a) advise Subservicer upon delivery of each Mortgage Loan submitted for subservicing as to whether the Mortgage Loan is in a warehouse (unsold) status or, if sold, specific information regarding the intended permanent Investor. If a Mortgage Loan which has been delivered to Subservicer of the sale in a warehouse (unsold) status is sold, Lender will immediately notify Subservicer of the sale and will deliver a written copy of the permanent Investor’s purchase advice or funding detail report immediately thereafter. If the Investor charges a penalty for late reporting, remittances, etc., which were caused by Lender’s delay in notifying Subservicer of the Investor’s purchase of the Mortgage Loan(s), Lender agrees to promptly pay the penalty and Subservicer shall have no liability on account thereof; and (b) discharge Subservicer from all funding liability for all Advances related to any Mortgage Loan included in any pool created through Mortgage-Backed Securities or Certificates, including Advances due to negative amortization to the extent that Subservicer makes remittances to Investors. Subservicer will reimburse Lender as recoveries are made from Mortgagors. 3.3 Default If: (i) Lender fails to pay to Subservicer any sums as and when due and payable to Subservicer under this SA, whether as compensation, reimbursement or otherwise; or (ii) any secured party holding a security interest granted by Lender as debtor shall demand that Subservicer pay over to that secured party any sums otherwise payable to Lender under this SA; or (iii) Lender shall be in default hereunder in any other material respect, then Subservicer shall: (A) be entitled to set off, against its damages, all sums due from Subservicer to Lender hereunder; and (B) have and may exercise all other remedies permitted by law for breach of contract. 3.4 Compliance During the Term of this SA, including any extensions hereof, Lender agrees to comply with those Applicable Requirements relating to the Mortgage Loans that are the responsibility of Lender. 3.5 Advances (a) Lender has agreed: (i) to bear the risk of credit losses inherent in the Mortgage Loan servicing and subservicing portfolios hereunder, except for those losses caused by Subservicer’s failure to comply with Applicable Requirements (including failure to comply with the provisions of this SA) and except as explicitly agreed to be borne by FHA, VA, any Investor or any PMI company; and (ii) to fund to Subservicer or reimburse Subservicer the amount of all advances required to be made by Subservicer (collectively, the “Advances”) to third parties: (A) under the terms of this SA; (B) under any applicable Servicing Agreements by which Lender or Subservicer is or may be bound; or (C) otherwise under Applicable Requirements. (1) Subservicer will notify Lender not later than one (1) Business Day before any Investor P&I remittance is due if P&I funds must be immediately deposited into the appropriate P&I account for remittance to such Investor;

(2) Lender will reimburse Subservicer for T&I and other non-P&I advances once each month, through a process of netting the amount due Subservicer against the sums due Lender. If Subservicer believes that there is a reasonable likelihood that the net monthly remittance next due Lender from Subservicer will be a negative amount, then Lender will provide funding or reimburse Subservicer therefore within two (2) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of Subservicer’s written request therefore. Without limiting the generality of the term “Advances”, Advances may be triggered by the need to pay any of the following: principal and/or interest to an Investor; interest to Mortgagors on their Escrow account balances; FHA mortgage insurance premiums or PMI, ground rents, taxes, special assessments or hazard insurance premiums over and above the amounts held in the related Escrow Accounts for such purposes; costs, expenses and fees of foreclosure or of acquiring title to the Mortgaged Premises by deed in lieu of foreclosure; costs, expenses and fees related to the management, maintenance and disposition of REO; and costs, expenses and fees of conveyance of any Mortgaged Premises to FHA, VA or a PMI company or to inspect or protect or repair the Mortgaged Premises; and recording charges and trustees’ fees incident to release, reconveyance or satisfaction of any paid in full Mortgage Loan. (b) Subservicer shall diligently endeavor to collect and recover from the Mortgagor(s), in accordance with Applicable Requirements, all Advances made by Subservicer which are not timely paid by, but which are the ultimate obligations of, the Mortgagors. If and when Subservicer is required to pay interest to any Investor through the end of a month, even though interest on an underlying Mortgage Loan ceased to accrue as of the date of payoff, the interest not collected as a consequence of the payoff before the end of such month shall be treated as an Advance to be paid or reimbursed by Lender, except to the extent the loss is attributable to Subservicer’s failure to apply timely payments actually received. (c) Upon any collection of Advances by Servicer from time to time, such collections shall be promptly applied in full, to the extent thereof, in the following order of priority: (i) to reimburse Subservicer for any unrecouped Advances disbursed by Subservicer from Subservicer’s corporate resources if Subservicer has elected in any instance to fund Advances from its own corporate resources; and (ii) any excess shall be refunded to Lender. (d) Subservicer shall utilize funds of Lender under this Section 3.5 solely to fund Advances required to be made by Subservicer under this SA or otherwise under Applicable Requirements. As a part of the monthly report set due Lender, Subservicer will, at Lender’s written request, provide complete supporting documentation to Lender detailing Subservicer’s uses of Lender’s funds. 3.6 Document Custodians; Expenses Lender will utilize Subservicer’s document custodians (to the extent permitted by Applicable Regulations) and bear the entire cost of establishing and maintaining each document custodian regime or any other Investor with respect to any of the Mortgage Loans. To the maximum extent permissible under Applicable Requirements, Lender will instruct each custodian to cooperate with reasonable requests of Subservicer, especially in connection with requests for documents or information to enable Subservicer to process releases of paid-in-full Mortgage Loans.

ARTICLE IV – COMPENSATION 4.1 Compensation to Subservicer For providing the services outlined in this SA, the Parties agree that: (a) Subservicer shall be paid the fees and funded for Advances and certain expenses as provided in Schedule II and elsewhere in this SA (i) during the Term, and (ii) after termination or expiration of this SA and until completion of the transfer of subservicing to Lender or its designee if Subservicer is continuing to provide the services required of it hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans. (b) Subservicer reserves the right to charge Lender: (i) for any additional out-of-pocket costs which Subservicer incurs for the setup and subservicing of any Mortgage Loan which is not then compatible with, and therefore cannot be subserviced on Subservicer’s Fidelity System without special enhancements, optional subsystems or special programming. (c) Any miscellaneous costs incurred by Subservicer from extraordinary requests by Lender or any Investor shall be billed to Lender at cost and promptly paid by Lender upon receipt of billing therefore. 4.2 Solicitation (a) Lender and Subservicer, including any of their respective affiliates, reserve the right to solicit individual Mortgagors for Optional Insurance. At Subservicer’s request, Lender agrees to enter into written joint marketing agreements with the insurance companies customarily used by Subservicer to market Optional Insurance, which agreements shall contain confidentiality provisions consistent with the provisions in this SA. Subservicer agrees that all such contracts for Optional Insurance solicitations shall, if nonpublic personal information shall be used in connection therewith, bind all such parties that (i) any nonpublic personal information concerning Mortgagors provided to them shall only be used for purposes of performing the services for which they have been engaged (ii) they may not disclose any such nonpublic personal information to others without Lender’s prior written consent; and (iii) they shall maintain adequate security policies and procedures designed to protect such nonpublic personal information from any inappropriate use or disclosure. Any resulting income from Optional Insurance will be allocated in accordance with Section I.C of Schedule II. (b) Except upon the prior written request or consent of Lender, neither Subservicer nor any affiliate of Subservicer (and not of Lender) shall solicit a refinancing of any Mortgage Loan nor sell, rent or otherwise provide to anyone a list of any of the Mortgage Loan Mortgagors.

The institution and maintenance of an action for provisional remedies or pursuit of provisional or ancillary remedies or the exercise of self help remedies shall not constitute a waiver of the right of any Party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration.

Lender and Subservicer each hereby knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waive the right each may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation based hereon, or arising out of, under or in connection with this or any actions of either Party.

(h) To the maximum extent practicable, an arbitration proceeding between the Parties shall be concluded within one hundred eighty (180) days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. Except where prevented from doing so by the acts of the other Party, each Party agrees to continue performing its respective obligations under this SA while the dispute is being resolved unless and until such obligations are terminated by the termination of this SA. (i) The provisions of this arbitration clause shall survive any termination, amendment, or expiration of this SA.

I. Subservicing Fees, Setup Fees/Account Maintenance Fee Schedules; Fees for Optional Services A. Setup Fees due Subservicer are as follows: (1) A $0.00 per Investor setup fee is due Subservicer from Lender for each Investor established on Subservicer’s Fidelity System on behalf of Lender. (2) A per Mortgage Loan setup fee shall be due Subservicer on the date of commencement of the related subservicing, in the following amounts: (a) Lender’s reimbursement of Subservicer’s actual out-of-pocket setup costs and expenses, including reasonable travel expenses as applicable, in the case of the Original Subservicing; provided, however, that such reimbursement may be waived by Subservicer; and (b) $0.00 per Mortgage Loan for automated setup (i.e., in which substantially all required data concerning the Mortgage Loan, including master file data, escrow and, if applicable, ARM information is delivered to Subserviced by electronic interface, the cost of which shall be paid by Lender; and (c) $0.00 per Mortgage Loan for manual setup; and (d) $1.25 for any Original Subservicing Mortgage Loan that, as of its Transfer Date, has been paid in full or transferred service released and is being transferred to Subservicer solely for the purpose of IRS reporting at the end of the calendar year in which the Transfer Date occurs. B. (1) The monthly per Mortgage Loan subservice fee due Subservicer hereunder: (a) is $6.06 for a fixed-rate Mortgage Loan (including a “balloon” or “balloon reset” Mortgage Loan or a converted ARM) or an ARM Mortgage Loan which does not necessitate special or accelerated collection (delinquency, loss mitigation, or home ownership and/or debt management counseling) activities beyond those normally required to service standard conventional ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac loan or loans insured by FHA or guaranteed by the VA or USDA/RHS;

(b) is $7.25 for a fixed-rate Mortgage Loan (including a “balloon” or “balloon reset” Mortgage Loan or a converted ARM) or ARM Mortgage Loan which does not satisfy the condition specified hereabove; (c) is $0.25 for any Original Subservicing Mortgage Loan that, as of its Transfer Date, has been paid in full and is being transferred to Subservicer solely for the purpose of IRS reporting at the end of the calendar year in which the Transfer Date occurs. Such Mortgage Loan(s) shall be purged from the Fidelity system following IRS reporting for the year in which the Transfer Date occurs and, thereafter, no additional charges shall accrue. In addition, any Mortgage Loan which pays in full during the last ninety (90) days of any calendar year shall not be purged from the Fidelity System at year-end but shall remain on the Fidelity System until the end of the following calendar year and shall be billed at the rate provided for in this subsection starting with the calendar month following the month in which the payoff occurs; (d) shall be computed as of the close of business on the last Business Day of the month in which the payoff occurs; (2) If, at any time after the First Transfer Date occurs hereunder, the number of Mortgage Loans subserviced hereunder is less than 0 (determined as of the last day of the month in question), then a monthly Account Maintenance Fee of $1,000 shall be payable to Subservicer for each such month. (3) The monthly per Mortgage Loan subservice fee due Subservicer shall be adjusted (each, a “Fee Adjustment”) effective as of the annual renewal date of this SA, but, in any event, only if based upon the mutual agreement of Lender and Subservicer. C. During each month during the Term hereof or any extension thereof, Lender agrees that Ancillary Income shall be deemed as 100% earned by Subservicer and claim no portion thereof. D. Subservicer shall collect from Lender an additional $20.00 per month for each Mortgage Loan (i) thirty (30) or more days delinquent, (ii) which has been referred to counsel for commencement of foreclosure proceedings, (iii) whose Mortgagor is a debtor in a pending bankruptcy proceeding, or (iv) which is REO managed by Subservicer, each to defray the increased costs necessarily incurred by Subservicer. Subservicer may, at its sole option, waive this charge for newly closed originations which have either a pending or recently completed service release sale statues and which delinquency is caused by the Mortgagor’s expressed confusion regarding the transfer. E. (1) All Mortgage Loans will be covered by lifetime freely transferable verified Transamerica Real Estate Tax Service (“TRETS”) or First American Real Estate Tax Service (“FARETS”) contracts, paid for by Lender. All tax service charges are the responsibility of Lender, including costs incurred by Subservicer for charges assessed by

tax authorities or FARETS (for FARETS contracts or for TRETS contracts that FARETS has succeeded to by merger) in connection with their providing duplicate tax bills to Subservicer. If a FARETS real estate tax service contract is not in existence at time subservicing commences, Subservicer will order same from FARETS and charge Lender the amount per Mortgage Loan actually invoiced to Subservicer by FARETS plus a $2.00 per Mortgage Loan service charge. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain Mortgage Loans may be transferred to Subservicer without a real estate tax contract in effect on the following terms and conditions, which are hereby specifically acknowledged and agreed to by Lender: (a) Subservicer shall have no obligation to order a tax service contract for any Mortgage Loan provided that Lender has identified, prior to the transfer of servicing to Subservicer, such loan as one for which Lender does not want a tax contract obtained. If Lender fails to provide such identification and Subservicer orders a tax service contract on such a loan, the cost shall be billed to Lender. If it is subsequently discovered by either Party that such contract was ordered in error, Subservicer shall cancel such contract and a refund, if any is forthcoming from the tax service company, shall be credited to Lender. (b) Subservicer’s obligations under Section 2.3(f) of this SA shall not apply to any Mortgage Loans for which Lender has elected not to have a tax service contract obtained nor shall Subservicer’s obligations under Section 2.3(h) apply to such Mortgage Loans with respect to the payment of items the non-payment of which would have been disclosed by a tax service contract. (c) Lender shall bear the sole risk, including any failure to comply with Applicable Requirements, resulting from the failure to obtain tax contracts on such Mortgage Loans, the failure to monitor the status of taxes and assessments, or the failure to pay outstanding taxes and assessments. The Parties acknowledge that these agreements concerning real estate tax service contracts are being made at the direction of Lender and, as a result thereof, Subservicer shall be entitled fully to indemnification by Lender pursuant to Section 8.3 of the SA. (2) If a transferable life of loan flood zone determination is not in effect on the related Mortgage Loan Transfer Date, naming Subservicer as the Party to be notified in case of any flood zone redetermination of the related Mortgaged Premises, then Lender will reimburse Subservicer for any charges billed to Subservicer by Subservicer’s flood zone tracking service vendor as a consequence of flood zone remapping of the Mortgaged Premises. F. Lender receives the benefit of all Escrow Accounts and P&I float. Escrow Account deposits shall be deposited at the direction of Lender, subject to all Applicable Requirements. G. If Lender elects the PLS Option in accordance with Section 2.9.1: (i) a one-time design and setup fee of $0.00 shall be due Subservicer on the date of

commencement of the related subservicing; and (ii) the additional fee per Mortgage Loan per month (determined as of the first day of each month) is $0.25, with a per month aggregate minimum of . H. Subservicer shall earn and be paid a flat fee of $100 per Mortgage Loan for each Mortgage Loan assigned to FHA under Title I of the National Housing Act. I. Subservicer shall earn and be paid a monthly fee of $0.00 for each separate Investor remittance method. J. If Lender elects the MBSO in accordance with Section 2.9.2, then; (i) a one-time design and setup fee of $0.00 shall be due Subservicer on the date of commencement of the related subservicing; and (ii) an additional fee per Mortgage Loan per month (determined as of the first day of each month) of $0.75 will be charged. The additional fees under clause (ii) include, and are based upon, applicable third-party production charges and U.S. Postal Service per letter postage as of the date of this SA and are subject to increase as production and postage charges are increased. K. Subservicer is entitled to retain all (100%) of all Loss Mitigation fees and expenses paid or allowed from time to time by the Agencies, HUD, FHA, VA and PMI Companies and any other Investor, in consideration of Subservicer’s loss mitigation activities with respect to any Mortgage Loans. If Subservicer performs loss mitigation activities at Lender’s request and there is no other source of compensation to Subservicer therefore, then Lender will compensate Subservicer at the same level as the standard compensation ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ would have allowed, at the time in question, for the same services for a Mortgage Loan owned or securitized by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae. At the date hereof, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ standard schedule of allowances for Loss Mitigation Fees includes the following sums for the following activities: $1,000 for a pre-foreclosure sale transaction; $500 for a mortgage modification transaction; and $500 and reimbursement for title expenses for a deed in lieu of foreclosure transaction. Subservicer will endeavor to collect its expenses and charges for title, recording, escrow and related independent services from the Mortgagors or other responsible third parties first before requiring reimbursement from Lender. L. The per Mortgage Loan setup fee due Subservicer pursuant to Section I.A.(2) above shall be increased by $1.00 in the case of manual setup of MERS information on the Fidelity System and by $0.50 in the case of automated setup of MERS information on the Fidelity System. M. If, during any calendar month, one percent (1.0%) or more of the Mortgage Loans are paid in full, Subservicer shall be entitled to an additional fee of $115.00 per paid in full Mortgage Loan in excess of the number equaling one percent (1.0%) in order to defray the incremental costs of processing satisfactions. The percentage shall be determined by dividing the number of paid in full Mortgage Loans during such calendar month by the number of Mortgage Loans on the Fidelity System as of the last day of the preceding calendar month.

II. Mortgage Loan Exit Fee A. An Exit Fee equal to Subservicer’s internal costs and expenses (including, without limitation, labor, reasonable supplies, telephone, mailing, telecopy and photocopy expenses) attributable to the servicing transfer is payable to Subservicer; provided, however, that the Exit Fee shall not exceed $13.00 per Mortgage Loan. In addition, Lender shall pay all shipping charges, Investor transfer fees, document preparation charges for Mortgage Loan assignments, and recording charges incurred by Subservicr from third parties in connection with the servicing transfer of any Mortgage Loan (collectively, “Exit Related Charges”). Except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph II.A, the Exit Fee and Exit Related Charges shall apply during the entire Term of this SA and after its expiration or termination. The Exit Fee and Exit Related Charges shall be payable with respect to each Mortgage Loan no longer serviced or subserviced hereunder at the time of cessation of servicing or subservicing, whether by passage of time or as a consequence of a material breach by Lender hereunder or otherwise; provided, however, that: (1) the Exit Fee and Exit Related Charges shall not be payable for any Mortgage Loan if that Mortgage Loan was paid at its maturity or prepaid; or (2) the Exit Fee shall not be payable for any Mortgage Loan if : (a) Subservicer is in material breach of this SA and such breach has not been cured as provided in Section 5.5 of this SA; or (b) Subservicer terminates this SA before expiration of the Term of this SA for any reason except for material breach by Lender. B. Notwithstanding the preceding Paragraph II.A, the per Mortgage Loan Exit Fee during any calendar quarter during the Term shall be limited to Lender’s reimbursement of the third party out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Subservicer if all of the following conditions are satisfied for that calendar quarter: (1) the total number of Mortgage Loans subservice released in that calendar quarter is 0 or less; (2) any Mortgage Loan in question was identified by Lender to Subservicer, on or before its Transfer Date, as being one for which service release is expected to occur. At such time as Lender so identifies the Mortgage Loan(s), Lender may also direct Subservicer not to perform any or all of its services hereunder in connection with such Mortgage Loan. There shall be no abatement of Subservicer’s fees as a result of such direction. Lender shall bear the sole risk, including any failure to comply with Applicable Requirements, resulting from such direction and Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that Subservicer shall be entitled fully to indemnification by Lender; and

(3) the Mortgage Loan in question was not subserviced by Subservicer for more than 120 days; and (4) at the close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar year in question, the total number of Mortgage Loans remaining unreleased is not less than 0 . C. In addition, Subservicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Lender for any setup costs and expenses paid by Subservicer pursuant to Paragraph I.A(2) if there is a servicing transfer of any of the Original Mortgage Loans prior to the third anniversary of the first Transfer Date. III. Exceptional Expenses; Power to Terminate Subservicing of Certain Mortgage Loans A. The compensation due Subservicer under this SA was negotiated upon the assumptions that: (i) prior to Subservicer’s commencement of subservicing activities hereunder, the Mortgage Loans were continuously serviced and/or subserviced in accordance with Applicable Requirements; (ii) each entity transferring the servicing or subservicing of the Mortgage Loans to Subservicer hereunder has fully and timely complied with Subservicer’s reasonable transfer instructions; and (iii) complete and accurate Mortgage Loan Servicing information for all data fields reasonably required by Subservicer has been provided to Subservicer, to properly convert all information and fields into Subservicer’s Fidelity System in conformity with Fidelity’s requirements. B. Without limiting the generality of Section 8.3(a) of this SA: (1) Lender shall reimburse Subservicer for all reasonable exceptional expenses (such as expenses for employee overtime, temporary help and telephone and overnight courier expenses) necessarily incurred by Subservicer to correct any inaccuracies in the assumptions set forth in Section III.A above. Subservicer shall keep Lender advised of the expenses for which Subservicer shall expect reimbursement; provided, however, that such undertaking to advise Lender shall not be deemed an obligation on Subservicer’s part to obtain Lender’s consent prior to incurring such expense. (2) Subservicer agrees to notify Lender of any breach in Lender’s representations and warranties promptly after actual knowledge thereof by the management (department manager or senior) of Subservicer. If such notice to Lender occurs prior to the servicing transfer of the Mortgage Loan(s) affected by such breach, Lender shall be afforded the opportunity to cure such breach, to Subservicer’s satisfaction, before transfer to Subservicer, but such cure shall not release Lender of its indemnification obligations hereunder. If such notice to Lender occurs after the Transfer Date of the Mortgage Loan(s) affected by such breach, Subservicer shall have all rights and remedies contained in and provided by this SA..

(3) With respect to any Mortgage Loans which have not been, prior to their respective Transfer Dates, continuously serviced or subserviced in accordance with Applicable Requirements in all material respects, Subservicer shall have a continuing option, subject to Subservicer’s compliance with Applicable Requirements, especially those mandating the giving of notice of a subservicing transfer, to determine (and to notify the Mortgagors and Lender of that determination) that, as of a future date certain, Lender or Lender’s designee will thereafter be servicing or subservicing such Mortgage Loans. C. In addition, Lender shall reimburse Subservicer for any additional Fidelity charges incurred by Subservicer as a result of Subservicer’s compliance with any ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ requirement that Subservicer report under additional lender numbers or branch numbers.
