EARLY PURCHASE PROGRAM ADDENDUM TO LOAN PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.3

EARLY PURCHASE PROGRAM

This Early Purchase Program Addendum to Loan Purchase Agreement (this “Addendum”) is made and entered into as of July 31, 2009 by and between Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) and Pulte Mortgage LLC (“Seller”). This Addendum supplements that certain Loan Purchase Agreement dated July 16, 1999 by and between Bank of America and Seller (including any and all Commitments, Amendments, Addenda, and Assignments related thereto, collectively, the “Loan Purchase Agreement”). All capitalized terms used in this Addendum and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Loan Purchase Agreement and/or the Bank of America Correspondent Lending Seller’s Guide (the “Guide”), as applicable.

RECITALS

Pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement, Bank of America may, from time to time, purchase mortgage loans from Seller subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.

Pursuant to that certain Master Repurchase Agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”) dated July 31, 2009 by and between Bank of America and Seller, Bank of America may, from time to time, purchase mortgage loans from Seller subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein (such loans, the “Repurchase Loans”).

Bank of America and Seller now desire to supplement the Loan Purchase Agreement to allow for the early purchase and sale of certain EPP Loans (as defined below), including certain of the Repurchase Loans, prior to delivery of certain mortgage loan documents. The early purchase and sale of such EPP Loans hereunder shall be referred to herein as the “Early Purchase Program.”

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank of America and Seller hereby agree as follows:

Eligible Loans. Seller may submit to Bank of America for purchase under the Early Purchase Program all mortgage loan products and/or mortgage loan types as set forth in, and subject to any additional requirements of, Exhibit A (such mortgage loan products and mortgage loan types, “EPP Loans”). Further, for purposes of this Addendum, certain of the Repurchase Loans, as approved by Bank of America, shall be deemed EPP Loans subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

Procedures for Purchase of EPP Loans. With respect to each EPP Loan that Seller desires to sell to Bank of America under the Early Purchase Program, Seller shall initiate a sale and purchase hereunder by (i) delivering to Bank of America an electronic collateral data record in a format acceptable to Bank of America that includes all information required by Bank of America with respect to the EPP Loan (each, a “Collateral Data Record”), (ii) delivering to Bank of America or its designee the applicable collateral documents (as set forth in Exhibit D, the “Collateral Documents”) and (iii) commit the loan to Bank of America as evidenced by a Bank of America commitment number applicable to the respective EPP Loan. It shall be the responsibility of Seller to notify Bank of America of any loan, including any Repurchase Loan that Seller intends to offer to sell to Bank of America under the Early Purchase Program, including providing Bank of America with a schedule of any such loans, if necessary. Seller shall deliver the Collateral Data Record and the Collateral Documents to Bank of America no later than 5:00 p.m. PST on the date prior to the Purchase Date (as defined below), and shall submit any revisions to such Collateral Data Record no later than 12:00 p.m. PST on the Purchase Date. In the event that Bank of America determines that an EPP Loan is eligible for purchase and otherwise meets the requirements of this Addendum, the

Loan Purchase Agreement and the Guide (collectively, the "Program Agreements"), which such determination shall be made by Bank of America in its sole and reasonable discretion, Bank of America shall purchase such EPP Loan on a date to be agreed upon by Bank of America and Seller or, if the EPP Loan has not yet closed, on the closing date of such EPP Loan (either, the "Purchase Date"). Seller expressly understands and agrees that the information required in the Collateral Data Record and the method for delivery of the Collateral Data Record to Bank of America may be changed from time to time by Bank of America in its sole discretion.

3.	Calculation of the Purchase Price and Fees.

(a)

Initial Purchase Price. As consideration for each EPP Loan to be purchased hereunder, Bank of America shall pay to Seller, on or before the Purchase Date, a portion of the estimated Final Purchase Price (as defined below) (such portion of the estimated Final Purchase Price, the “Initial Purchase Price”). The Initial Purchase Price shall be equal to the lesser of (A) the product of the unpaid principal balance of the EPP Loan multiplied by the lesser of (i) the Initial Purchase Price Percentage (as defined below), (ii) par, or (iii) the estimated Final Purchase Price Percentage (as defined below) or (B) the product of the unpaid principal balance of the EPP Loan multiplied by ninety eight percent (98%) of the estimated Final Purchase Price Percentage of the EPP Loan. Bank of America shall pay the Initial Purchase Price to Seller in accordance with the instructions set forth in Exhibit C. It is understood and agreed that the Initial Purchase Price, being a portion of the estimated Final Purchase Price, includes a holdback amount to account for Bank of America’s post purchase review and confirmation that the EPP Loan fully complies with Bank of America’s requirements and may include as a holdback certain other normal and customary adjustments, fees and/or discounts made by or owed to Bank of America with respect to the EPP Loan under the Program Agreements.

(b)

Initial Purchase Price Percentage. The Initial Purchase Price Percentage shall be that percentage as set forth on Exhibit A or as may be adjusted by Bank of America hereafter in accordance with this Addendum. In addition to any other remedies afforded Bank of America, Bank of America may reduce the Initial Purchase Price Percentage in the event of Seller’s breach of its obligations under the Program Agreements. Further, Bank of America may, from time to time, reduce the Initial Purchase Price Percentage to account for any changes in Seller’s financial condition and/or changes in general market conditions, which, in either case, Bank of America determines are material changes.

(c)

Recalculation of Initial Purchase Price During Review Period. If, at any time during the Review Period (as defined below), (i) Bank of America reasonably determines that the loan characteristics of an EPP Loan are different than those originally represented by Seller and Bank of America reduces the Final Purchase Price Percentage for such EPP Loan, (ii) the Final Purchase Price Percentage for any EPP Loan contained in any Assignment of Trade or Commitment applicable to such EPP Loan is reduced as permitted therein or (iii) any Assignment of Trade or Commitment applicable to any EPP Loan is cancelled as permitted therein and a new Assignment of Trade or Commitment is entered into by Bank of America and Seller with respect to such EPP Loan and the Final Purchase Price Percentage for such EPP Loan is reduced in the new Assignment of Trade or Commitment, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Bank of America shall have the right to recalculate the Initial Purchase Price paid for the related EPP Loan pursuant to subsection (a) above to account for any such reductions. Further, if an Assignment of Trade or Commitment is cancelled during the Review Period and a new Assignment of Trade or Commitment is not entered into by Bank of America and Seller with respect to any EPP Loan, Bank of America shall have the right to determine the Final Purchase Price Percentage of the EPP Loan and recalculate the Initial Purchase Price pursuant to subsection (a) above based on its determination of the Final Purchase Price Percentage of the EPP Loan. In determining the Final Purchase Price Percentage of any EPP Loan as permitted in the foregoing sentence, Bank of America shall base its determination of the Final Purchase Price Percentage on the current market value of the EPP Loan and use reasonable industry standards to determine the current market value of the EPP Loan and shall provide Seller with at least one (1) Business Day prior notice of any such determination of the Final Purchase Price Percentage.

If any recalculated Initial Purchase Price for any EPP Loan as permitted herein is less than the original Initial Purchase Price paid by Bank of America to Seller for such EPP Loan, Seller shall, at Bank of America’s sole option, immediately refund to Bank of America the difference between the original Initial Purchase Price and the recalculated Initial Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank of America shall be entitled to deduct from the Over/Under Account any such amounts required to be refunded by Seller to Bank of America hereunder. Further, at the request of Seller, and to the extent such documentation exists, Bank of America shall provide Seller with all documentation reasonably related to and supporting such determination of the Final Purchase Price Percentage.

(d)

Final Purchase Price. Upon Bank of America’s review of the EPP Loan and the completion of the related Review Period (as defined below), Bank of America shall determine the Final Purchase Price Percentage and Final Purchase Price of the related EPP Loan. The Final Purchase Price shall be an SRP Enhancement (as defined below). The SRP Enhancement shall be equal to the product of (A) the difference between (i) the annual note rate of the EPP Loan and (ii) the SRP Enhancement Percent set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto plus the one month LIBOR rate multiplied by (B) the unpaid principal balance of the EPP Loan (the “SRP Enhancement”). The EPP SRP Enhancement shall not be applicable for Specialty ARM’s (non-conforming PayOption ARM’s) unless as otherwise provided in the Addendum. The SRP Enhancement shall be calculated for the period commencing on the Purchase Date and ending on the completion of the Review Period. The difference between the Initial Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price, if any, shall be debited or credited, as applicable, by Bank of America to the Over/Under Account in accordance with Section 4 hereof.

(e)

Final Purchase Price Percentage. The Final Purchase Price Percentage shall be the estimated Final Purchase Price Percentage at the time the EPP Loan was sold to Bank of America, less any adjustments made thereto by Bank of America as permitted by the Program Agreements. In addition to any other remedies afforded Bank of America, Bank of America may require Seller to repurchase such EPP Loan or Seller and Bank of America may negotiate a revised price based on current market conditions in the event of Seller’s breach of its obligations under the Program Agreements. Further, Bank of America may require Seller to repurchase an EPP Loan or Seller and Bank of America may negotiate a revised price based on current market conditions for any changes in Seller’s financial condition and/or changes in general market conditions, which, in either case, Bank of America determines are material changes.

(f)

Fees. Bank of America shall charge, and Seller shall be obligated to pay, in addition to any other fees applicable under the Program Agreements, a File Fee and a Disbursement Fee in connection with each EPP Loan purchased pursuant to this Addendum. The current amounts of these fees, as well as the current amounts of any other fees which are applicable under the Early Purchase Program, are set forth in Exhibit J. All fees under the Early Purchase Program, as set forth on Exhibit J, may be deducted by Bank of America from the Over/Under Account.

4.	Over/Under Account.

(a)

Over/Under Account; Minimum Balance; Failure to Maintain Minimum Balance. For purposes of this Addendum, Seller shall at all times maintain a balance in an account to be established and managed by Bank of America (the “Over/Under Account”). The minimum balance in the Over/Under Account shall, at all times, be at least equal to the amount set forth in Exhibit J (the “Minimum Balance”). To the extent Seller is required to maintain a similar balance under the terms of the Repurchase Agreement, any such balance maintained by Seller under the terms of the Repurchase Agreement shall be credited against the amount required to be maintained by Seller hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed to by Bank of America, and except as otherwise provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the Minimum Balance requirements of Seller with respect to the Over/Under Account as required under this Addendum shall not affect in any way the obligations of Seller to maintain a similar account and balance under any other agreement with Bank of America, its parent, subsidiaries and/or affiliates, including, without limitation, the minimum amount of the Over/Under Account required to be maintained by Seller with Bank of America. Bank of America shall not be required to segregate and hold funds deposited by or on behalf of Seller in the Over/Under Account separate and apart from Bank of America’s own funds or funds deposited by or held for others. In the event Seller fails to maintain the Minimum Balance in the Over/Under Account at any time, in addition to any other rights and remedies of Bank of America, Seller shall be obligated to pay Bank of America interest on any shortfall amount at the rate specified in Exhibit J for as long as the Minimum Balance fails to be maintained.

(b)

Offsets. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein or hereafter, Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that Bank of America is entitled to withdraw or debit from the Over/Under Account, or offset against any amounts owed by Bank of America to Seller, any amounts owed by Seller to Bank of America under this Addendum.

(c)

Withdrawals.

(i)

Seller. If, at any time, the Over/Under Account balance exceeds the Minimum Balance, and the outstanding balance of EPP Loans for which the Review Period has not completed does not exceed any of the loan limits set forth in Section 7(f), Seller shall be entitled to the return of all amounts in excess of the Minimum Balance. Bank of America shall wire transfer all such requested excess amounts to Seller from the Over/Under Account not later than one (1) business day after receipt of written notice (facsimile and e-mail notices are acceptable for this purpose) thereof by Bank of America. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank of America shall not be required to return such portion of such excess amounts that Bank of America has determined, in its sole and reasonable discretion, is required to be retained in the Over/Under Account in furtherance of this Addendum and/or the Program Agreements.

(ii)

Bank of America. Bank of America may withdraw funds from the Over/Under Account as contemplated by this Addendum and the Program Agreements including, without limitation, for purposes of making disbursements to Approved Payees (as defined in the Repurchase Agreement) and properly allocating costs and expenses incurred hereunder in accordance with this Addendum.

(d)

Return of Over/Under Account Balance Upon Termination. Upon termination of this Addendum, Bank of America shall return the Over/Under Account balance to Seller in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement.

Defective Collateral Documents; Delivery of Acceptable Collateral Documents. Each delivery of Collateral Documents must be accompanied with a description of the Collateral Documents in a form acceptable to Bank of America. In the event Bank of America determines that one or more of the Collateral Documents related to any EPP Loan is incorrect, deficient or otherwise unacceptable (any such Collateral Document, a “Defective Collateral Document”), Seller shall correct such Defective Collateral Document in a manner acceptable to Bank of America and deliver the same to Bank of America. If, after the Purchase Date related to any EPP Loan, Bank of America determines, in its sole and good faith discretion, that there exists one or more Defective Collateral Documents related

to such EPP Loan, (a) Seller shall pay Bank of America a Late Document Fee as set forth in Exhibit J for each day thereafter until such documents are corrected by Seller and delivered to Bank of America and determined by Bank of America, in its sole and good faith discretion, to be acceptable, which such determination shall be made by Bank of America in its sole and reasonable discretion, (b) Bank of America shall reduce the Initial Purchase Price for such EPP Loan by the Late Documentation Reduction Percentage as set forth in Exhibit J (such reduction amount, the “Late Documentation Holdback”). The Late Documentation Holdback shall be debited by Bank of America from the Over/Under Account and retained by Bank of America until such time as either (i) Seller delivers to Bank of America acceptable Collateral Documents, in which case, the Late Documentation Holdback shall be credited to the Over/Under Account or (ii) Seller repurchases the EPP Loan, in which case, such Late Documentation Holdback will be credited against the related repurchase price. Further, in the event Seller fails to deliver acceptable Collateral Documents to Bank of America within fourteen (14) calendar days after the Purchase Date, upon request of Bank of America, Seller shall immediately repurchase the related EPP Loan.

Delivery of Credit File and Additional Documents and Information. In addition to the Collateral Documents to be provided by Seller in accordance with Section 2 and Section 5 hereof, Seller shall deliver to Bank of America (a) the credit file/funding package (as more particularly defined as “Purchase Documentation” in the Guide) and (b) any and all other documents and information related to the EPP Loan which is required to be provided or delivered to Bank of America under the Program Agreements. With respect to the delivery of credit file/funding package related to any EPP Loan, notwithstanding anything contained in the Program Agreements to the contrary, such credit file/funding package shall be delivered by Seller to Bank of America within fifteen (15) Business Days after the related Purchase Date. If Seller fails to deliver the credit file/funding package within such time frame, in addition to any other rights and remedies of Bank of America, Bank of America shall be entitled to reduce the Initial Purchase Price for such EPP Loan by the Late Credit File Holdback as set forth in Exhibit J (such reduction amount, the “Late Credit File Holdback”). The Late Credit File Holdback shall be debited by Bank of America from the Over/Under Account and retained by Bank of America until such time as either (i) Seller delivers to Bank of America the credit file/funding package, in which case, the Late Credit File Holdback shall be credited to the Over/Under Account or (ii) Seller repurchases the EPP Loan, in which case, such Late Credit File Holdback will be credited against the related repurchase price. Further, in the event Seller fails to deliver the credit file/funding package to Bank of America within thirty (30) calendar days after the related Purchase Date, upon request of Bank of America, Seller shall immediately repurchase the related EPP Loan. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that the delivery obligations of this Section 6 shall apply to any EPP Loan, whether sold to Bank of America on a “wet” or “dry” basis.

7.	Review of EPP Loans.

(a)

Review Period. Seller acknowledges that prior to Bank of America’s purchase of EPP Loans under the Early Purchase Program, Bank of America will not have an opportunity to complete a full review of the mortgage files, information and documents relating to such EPP Loans. Accordingly, Seller agrees that Bank of America shall have a period in calendar days, commencing on the date the EPP Loan closes (as set forth in Exhibit A, the "Review Period") in which to review the mortgage file, information and documents related to each EPP Loan to determine whether the related EPP Loan complies with the terms and conditions of the Program Agreements. Bank of America will use commercially reasonable efforts to complete its review of each EPP Loan as soon as practicable. The Review Period will be deemed complete with respect to any EPP Loan upon Bank of America’s determination that the EPP Loan complies with all terms and conditions of the Program Agreements notwithstanding that additional time may be left in the applicable Review Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the fact that Bank of America has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete examination of the mortgage file, information and/or documents related to an EPP Loan shall not affect Bank of America’s right to demand repurchase or to avail itself of any other remedy available hereunder.

(b)

Compliance with Program Agreements; Repurchase. During the Review Period, Bank of America may, in its sole and reasonable discretion, determine that an EPP Loan purchased from Seller is not eligible for purchase and/or does not otherwise comply with one or more of the requirements of the Program Agreements. In such event, Bank of America may provide written notice to Seller identifying the non-compliant EPP Loan and request that Seller repurchase such non-compliant EPP Loan within three (3) business days after the date of such notice. Repurchase of the EPP Loan, including calculation of the applicable repurchase price, shall be conducted pursuant to the Loan Purchase Agreement. Seller expressly understands and agrees that this remedy is not exclusive and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Bank of America under the Program Agreements, including, but not limited to, Seller’s Repurchase Obligations under the Loan Purchase Agreement. Nothing in this Section or this Addendum is intended to waive any right Bank of America may have to require Seller to repurchase an EPP Loan, during or after the Review Period, as otherwise set forth in the Program Agreements; provided, however, that any repurchase required after the payment of the Final Purchase Price with respect to such EPP Loan shall be effected in accordance with Seller’s Repurchase Obligations under the Loan Purchase Agreement.

(c)

Transfer of Servicing. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Bank of America, starting on a date mutually agreed upon by Seller and Bank of America, the purchase of all EPP Loans will include the related servicing rights. With respect to the transfer of such servicing rights, Seller shall transfer servicing upon the completion of the Review Period. Bank of America’s servicing of any EPP Loan will be subject to the following conditions: (i) Bank of America has received a complete and accurate Collateral Data Record and Collateral Transmittal (if applicable) and Bank of America has approved the Collateral Documents, (ii) Seller has complied with, or will be capable of complying with, Bank of America’s servicing transfer instructions, including, without limitation, providing Bank of America with any documents, including those additional required documents illustrated within Exhibit E, or additional information deemed necessary by Bank of America to service the EPP Loan, and (iii) Bank of America determines that the servicing transfer will otherwise comply with applicable law, including, without limitation, RESPA. Provided that the foregoing conditions have been satisfied at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to due date for the first payment of the EPP Loan, servicing of the EPP Loan will be transferred at the completion of the Review Period or on the related Purchase Date, as applicable, or such other date as mutually agreed to by Bank of America and Seller. If such conditions are not satisfied within this time frame, Seller acknowledges that Bank of America may be unable to transfer the EPP Loan onto its servicing system in a timely manner. In such an event, Seller will be obligated to service the affected EPP Loan on behalf of Bank of America at Seller’s sole cost and expense during any such period of delay.

(d)

Pool Cut-Off Dates and Target Funding Dates. The date on which the Review Period is deemed complete shall be the date used by Seller and Bank of America for the purposes of determining compliance with any time periods or deadlines that may be associated with any Pool Cut-Off Dates or Target Funding Dates arising out of the Program Agreements.

(e)

Inability to Complete Review. In the event Bank of America is unable to complete its review of any EPP Loan during the related Review Period as a result of any required mortgage file, information and/or documents not being timely delivered or provided to Bank of America as required hereunder, Bank of America may, at Bank of America’s sole option and in lieu of requiring Seller to repurchase the affected EPP Loan, either:

(i)

extend the Review Period for an additional period of time to be determined by Bank of America in its sole and good faith discretion, in which case, (A) as a holdback amount to compensate Bank of America for the risk that such EPP Loan may not comply with the Agreements, the Initial Purchase Price for the EPP Loan shall be reduced by Bank of America in accordance with the reduction schedule set forth in Exhibit J, and (B) Bank of America shall charge, and Seller shall be obligated to pay, in addition to any other fees applicable under the Loan Purchase Agreement, a Review Period Extension Fee. Such holdback amount and Review Period Extension Fee may be deducted by Bank of America from the Over/Under Account; or

(ii)

mutually agree with Seller upon the Final Purchase Price of the related EPP Loan, in which case, the difference, if any, between the Initial Purchase Price and the agreed upon Final Purchase Price for such loan shall then be debited or credited, as applicable, by Bank of America to the Over/Under Account.

(f)

Outstanding Loan Limit. The maximum outstanding aggregate unpaid loan balance of all EPP Loans that are submitted to Bank of America by Seller for purchase hereunder, and for which the Review Period has not completed, shall not exceed the Outstanding Loan Limit set forth on Exhibit J. Further, with respect to certain loan types, the maximum outstanding aggregate unpaid loan balances of such loans for which the Review Period has not been completed shall not exceed the amounts set forth on Exhibit A.

Title to Loans. Bank of America and Seller acknowledge and agree that each transaction under the Early Purchase Program is intended to be a purchase and sale and not a financing transaction. As such, title to each EPP Loan that Bank of America purchases under the Early Purchase Program shall pass from Seller to Bank of America upon receipt by Seller or its agent of the Initial Purchase Price as described more fully in Section 3 herein. If, for any reason, any transaction hereunder is deemed to be a financing transaction, Seller shall be deemed to have pledged to Bank of America as security for Seller’s performance under each such financing transaction a first lien and priority security interest in and upon the related EPP Loan. Seller shall pay all fees and expenses associated with perfecting such security interest, including without limitation, the cost of filing UCC financing statements and recording assignments of mortgage, as and when required by Bank of America in its sole discretion. Neither Seller nor Bank of America makes any covenants, representations and warranties, whether express or implied, that the anticipated transactions hereunder will be a purchase and sale and not a financing and it shall be the sole responsibility of Seller and Bank of America to determine for their respective purposes whether the transactions hereunder will be treated as purchase and sale transactions and not financing transactions. Further, in no event shall Seller or Bank of America be liable to the other or any third party as a result of any transaction hereunder being deemed a financing transaction.

9.	Additional Representations and Warranties. As of the related Purchase Date, Seller represents and warrants to Bank of America, with respect to each EPP Loan, as follows:

It is understood and agreed by Seller that if an event of default has occurred and has not been cured by Seller within the applicable cure period, if any, under the Repurchase Agreement, such event of default will be an Event of Default hereunder and Bank of America shall have the right to terminate this Addendum as provided under this subsection (b).

(c)

Additional Remedies. In addition to any other rights and remedies that Bank of America may have under the Program Agreements, including, without limitation, the rights and remedies of Bank of America under this Addendum, in the event that Seller fails to repurchase any EPP Loan within the applicable time period required under the Program Agreements, Bank of America may, at its sole option, require that such EPP Loan be repurchased by initiating a transaction with Bank of America under the Repurchase Agreement. Seller hereby consents to the repurchase of any EPP Loan by initiating a transaction with Bank of America under the Repurchase Agreement upon receipt of notice from Bank of America that Bank of America has elected to require Seller to repurchase such EPP Loan under this Section 15(c) and no further action will be necessary by Seller to effectuate Seller’s consent to repurchase such EPP Loan in such manner.

Payment of Purchase Proceeds

I. Disbursement of Funds

(a)

By Wire Transfer, Check or Draft. Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that Bank of America will pay, by wire transfer, check or draft, the Initial Purchase Price for EPP Loans purchased hereunder only to a closing agent or warehouse lender that is an Approved Payee (as hereafter defined); provided, however, that Bank of America shall not make any such payment where such payment would cause the balance in the Over/Under Account to fall below the Minimum Balance set forth in the Addendum. The payment of the Initial Purchase Price by Bank of America to any closing agent or warehouse lender that is not an Approved Payee shall not make such closing agent or warehouse lender an Approved Payee, nor shall it constitute a waiver of any of Bank of America’s rights hereunder. All payments by Bank of America to Seller or its Approved Payee by wire transfer shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations and the then-current policy of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on Reduction of Payments System Risk. Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that Bank of America shall not be responsible or liable in any manner for any delay caused by such applicable laws, regulations and/or the policy.

(b)

Return of Funds. If, for any reason, any EPP Loan that has not yet been originated is not closed within three (3) business days of the date Bank of America remits payment to Seller or its agent, Seller shall, or shall cause its agent to, return the payment to Bank of America, and Seller shall also pay Bank of America (a) interest from the date such funds were paid by Bank of America, excluding the date such funds are returned, at an annual rate equal to the rate of the note underlying such EPP Loan; plus (b) a Breakage Fee. Seller shall pay all such amounts due Bank of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the following account:

II. Approved Payees.

(a)	Closing Agents. In order for a closing agent to be designated as an “Approved Payee” in connection with any EPP Loan, Seller must submit to Bank of America the following documents, in a form acceptable to Bank of America:

(i)

a blanket closing protection letter, issued to Bank of America by the title company that issues the title policy covering the applicable Loan (the “Title Company”), that covers closings conducted by this closing agent in the jurisdiction where this closing will take place (a “Blanket Closing Protection Letter”);

(ii)

in the absence of a Blanket Closing Protection Letter issued by the Title Company to Bank of America, a Blanket Closing Protection Letter issued by the Title Company to Seller (with a valid, enforceable assignment of Seller’s rights thereunder, in a form acceptable to Bank of America);

(iii)

in the absence of a Blanket Closing Protection Letter, a specific closing protection letter, issued by the Title Company to Bank of America or to Seller (with a valid, enforceable assignment of Seller’s rights thereunder, in a form acceptable to Bank of America), that covers closings conducted by this closing agent in the jurisdiction where this closing will take place (a “Specific Closing Protection Letter”);

(iv)

if neither Specific nor Blanket Closing Protection Letters are available or are limited in their applicability in the jurisdiction where the closing takes place, any other document(s) Bank of America may reasonably require, including without limitation a valid, enforceable assignment to Bank of America of Seller’s rights under any fidelity bond and/or insurance policies; and

(v)

written evidence that closing instructions, in form and content approved by Bank of America and signed by Seller and Bank of America, have been delivered to such closing agent.

(b)

Warehouse Lender. In order for a warehouse lender to be designated an Approved Payee, Seller must submit to Bank of America a written request, including the name and address of the applicable warehouse lender, demonstrating a need for such designation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank of America reserves the right to refuse to designate any warehouse lender as an Approved Payee.

(c)

Approval Process. Bank of America shall review the applicable documents and notify Seller within two (2) business days as to whether a closing agent or warehouse lender has been designated by Bank of America, in its sole and good faith discretion, to be an Approved Payee. Bank of America may withdraw its approval of any closing agent or warehouse lender as an Approved Payee at any time, in its sole and good faith discretion, with or without notice.

Automatic Conversion of Loans from Master Repurchase Agreement to Early Purchase Program

Bank of America Warehouse Lending offers an automated function for its customers to sell loans sold by Seller to Bank of America Warehouse Lending under the master repurchase agreement to Bank of America Correspondent Lending under Bank of America’s Early Purchase Program (“EPP Program”).

Once the collateral is received by Bank of America Warehouse Lending and a Bank of America Correspondent Lending loan number is assigned such loan, Bank of America Warehouse Lending can automatically sell such loans on behalf of Seller to Bank of America Correspondent Lending under the EPP Program. A Bank of America Correspondent Lending loan number can be created by the following methods:

1.	Registration or locking of a loan with Bank of America Correspondent Lending.

2.	A funding package is received by Bank of America Correspondent Lending.

3.	The collateral data record provided to Bank of America Warehouse Lending indicates the takeout investor as Bank of America Correspondent Lending.

4.	Shipping instructions are provided to Bank of America Warehouse Lending indicating to ship the collateral to Bank of America Correspondent Lending.

I hereby authorize the sale of eligible loans currently sold by Seller to Bank of America Warehouse Lending under the master repurchase agreement to be sold by Bank of America Warehouse Lending on behalf of Seller to Bank of America Correspondent Lending pursuant to the EPP program.
