(b) Unless otherwise agreed, Seller shall request that Buyer enter into a Transaction with Seller by delivering (i) to Buyer and Custodian a Transaction Notice, (ii) to Buyer and Custodian an estimate of the Purchase Price for Eligible Loans to be purchased on the Purchase Date (which estimate may be included in a Transaction Notice), and (iii) to Custodian, the Mortgage Files for each such Eligible Loan proposed to be included in a Transaction by the times set forth in the Custodial Agreement, each in accordance with the times specified in the Custodial Agreement.

Each Transaction Notice shall specify the proposed Purchase Date, Purchase Price (which shall in all events be at least equal to $1,000,000 on each day that there is a Transaction), Pricing Rate and Repurchase Date. In addition, each Transaction Notice shall set forth the related Purchase Price allocable to each individual Loan. Each Transaction Notice shall include a Loan Schedule in respect of the Loans that Seller proposes to include in the related Transaction.

Buyer shall notify Seller of its agreement to enter into a Transaction and confirm the terms of such Transaction by delivering to Seller a Purchase Notice specifying the Loans Buyer agrees to purchase on the related Purchase Date, and any other terms of the related Transaction. In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in the Transaction Notice delivered by Seller to Buyer and Custodian and the terms set forth in the related Purchase Notice delivered by Buyer to Seller, the terms of the related Purchase Notice shall control. In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Agreement and the terms set forth in any Purchase Notice, the terms of such Purchase Notice shall control to the extent that the Purchase Notice notes such conflict and specifies that the Purchase Notice shall control.

By entering into a Transaction with Buyer, Seller consents to the terms set forth in the related Purchase Notice. The Purchase Notice, together with this Agreement, shall constitute conclusive evidence of the terms agreed to between Buyer and Seller with respect to the Transaction to which the Purchase Notice relates.

(c) Pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, Custodian will be required to review any Loan Documents delivered with respect to the Loans prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day on the same day. In accordance with the times specified in the Custodial Agreement, Custodian will be required to deliver to Buyer, via Electronic Transmission acceptable to Buyer, Custodian Loan Transmission and an Exception Report showing the status of all Loans then held by Custodian, including but not limited to the Loans that are subject to Exceptions, and the time the related Loan Documents have been released pursuant to Sections 5(a) or 5(b) of the Custodial Agreement. In accordance with the times specified in the Custodial Agreement, Custodian will be required to deliver to Buyer, on each Purchase Date, one or more Trust Receipts (as defined in the Custodial Agreement). The original copies of such Trust Receipts shall be delivered to 000/000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention:

Xxxxxx Xxxxxx for the account of Citibank, N.A., telephone number (000) 000-0000, as agent for Buyer by overnight delivery using a nationally recognized insured overnight delivery service.

(d) Upon Seller’s request to enter into a Transaction pursuant to Section 3(a), Buyer shall, assuming all conditions precedent set forth in this Section 3 and in Sections 9(a) and (b) have been met, and provided no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, purchase the Eligible Loans included in the related Purchase Notice by transferring to the Seller or the Seller’s designee, via wire transfer in accordance with the written wire transfer instructions provided by Seller, the Purchase Price in immediately available funds on the related Purchase Date and not later than the related time set forth in the Custodial Agreement. Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchase Price paid in connection with any Purchased Loan that is purchased in any Transaction includes a mutually negotiated premium allocated to the portion of such Purchased Loans that constitutes the related Servicing Rights in connection with any Loan.

(e) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBO Base Rate:

(i) Buyer determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO Base Rate” in Section 2 are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for Transactions as provided herein;

(ii) Buyer determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that the Applicable Margin plus the relevant rate of interest referred to in the definition of “LIBO Base Rate” in Section 2 upon the basis of which the rate of interest for Transactions is to be determined is not likely to adequately cover the cost to Buyer of purchasing and holding the Loans hereunder; or

(iii) it becomes unlawful for Buyer to enter into Transactions with a Pricing Rate based on the LIBO Base Rate;

then Buyer shall give Seller prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, Buyer shall be under no obligation to purchase Loans hereunder, and Seller shall, at its option, either repurchase the Purchased Loans then subject to a Transaction or pay a Pricing Rate at a rate per annum as determined by Buyer taking into account the increased cost to Buyer of purchasing and holding the Loans.

(f) Seller shall repurchase the related Purchased Loans from Buyer on each related Repurchase Date. Each obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Loan. Seller is obligated to obtain the related Purchased Loans from Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) at Seller’s expense on (or after) the related Repurchase Date.

(g) Provided that the applicable conditions in Sections 9(a) and (b) have been satisfied and provided further no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, unless Buyer is notified to the contrary not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time at least two (2) Business Days prior to any such Repurchase Date, on each related Repurchase Date each Purchased Loan shall automatically become subject to a new Transaction. In such event, the related Repurchase Date on which such Transaction becomes subject to a new Transaction shall become the “Purchase Date” for such Transaction. Seller shall deliver an updated Transaction Notice with respect to such Purchased Loans. For each new Transaction, unless otherwise agreed, (y) the accrued and unpaid Price Differential shall be settled in cash on each related Repurchase Date, and (z) the Pricing Rate shall be as set forth in the Pricing Side Letter.

(h) If Seller intends to repurchase any Loans on any day which is not a Repurchase Date, Seller shall give prior written notice thereof to Buyer by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to the date of repurchase. If such notice is given, the Repurchase Price specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with the Price Differential to such date on the amount prepaid.

(i) If any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other organizational or governing documents) or any change in the interpretation or application thereof 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 made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject Buyer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loans purchased pursuant to it (excluding net income taxes) or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof;

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory advance or similar requirement against assets held by deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of Transactions or extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by any office of Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBO Base Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on Buyer any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount which Buyer deems to be material, of effecting or maintaining purchases hereunder, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable thereafter incurred.

If Buyer shall have determined that either (i) the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other organizational or governing documents) 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 or Official Body made subsequent to the date hereof; or (ii) compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with: (x) any directive or request from any Governing Authority or Official Body imposed after the date hereof or (y) the requirements of, whether such compliance is commenced prior to or after the date hereof, any of (a) Basel III or (b) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act, or any existing rules, regulations, guidance, interpretations or directives from the United States bank regulatory agencies relating to Basel III or the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act; shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material and to the extent Buyer determines such reduced rate of return to be attributable to the existence of the obligations or agreements of Buyer hereunder, then from time to time, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will thereafter compensate Buyer for such reduction.

(j) If the Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall promptly notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to

any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by the Buyer to Seller shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

4. PAYMENTs; COMPUTATION; COMMITMENT FEE

(a) Payments. All payments to be made by Seller under this Agreement shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Buyer, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, at the following account maintained by Buyer at Citibank, New York, Account Number 00000000, For the A/C of Citibank, N.A., ABA# 000000000, Reference: PennyMac, not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Seller acknowledges that it has no rights of withdrawal from the foregoing account.

(b) Computations. The Price Differential shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable. With respect to each Repurchase Date, Buyer shall give Seller notice of the amount of accrued Price Differential payable on such Repurchase Date at least one (1) Business Day prior to such Repurchase Date.

5. TAXES; TAX TREATMENT

(a) All payments made by Seller to Buyer under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any current or future Taxes. If Seller is required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable to a Buyer hereunder, it shall: (i) make such deduction or withholding; (ii) pay the amount so deducted or withheld to the appropriate Governmental Authority not later than the date when due; (iii) deliver to Buyer, as promptly as possible, copies of any receipts of such Taxes paid or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer of the payment when due of the full amount of such Taxes; and (iv) pay to Buyer such additional amounts (an “Additional Amount”) as may be necessary so that such Buyer receives a net amount equal to the amount it would have received under this Agreement if no deduction or withholding of Taxes had been made.

(b) In addition, Seller agrees 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 by Seller hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (“Other Taxes”).

(c) Seller agrees 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 5, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, provided that Buyer shall have provided Seller with written evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Seller, of its payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be.

(d) (i) Any Buyer that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia (a “Foreign Buyer”) shall provide Seller, on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Buyer becomes a party to this Agreement and any other Program Document, with two duly completed and executed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying, as the case may be, that such Foreign Buyer is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest to zero, or that the income receivable by such Foreign Buyer under this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business carried on in the United States by the Foreign Buyer. Each Foreign Buyer will provide Seller with a new duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI no later than the earliest of (A) the end of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which the most recent applicable IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI was properly submitted to the Seller and (B) the expiration of thirty (30) days after there is a “change in circumstances” with respect to such Foreign Buyer as defined in United States Treas. Reg. § 1.1441(e)(4)(ii)(D).

(ii) A Foreign Buyer shall not be entitled to receive (A) any Additional Amounts or “gross-up” of Taxes under this Agreement, or (B) any indemnification under Section 5(c) with respect to any Taxes imposed by the United States or with respect to any other liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising from or in respect of any Taxes withheld or deducted from, or imposed by the United States on, any payments under this Agreement, for any period with respect to which such Foreign Buyer fails to provide the Seller with the appropriate IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or other relevant documentation required to be provided pursuant to this Section 5(d) (unless the failure to provide such applicable IRS Form is due solely to a change in any Requirement of Law of the United States prohibiting provision of the Form which occurs subsequent to the date on which a duly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI was provided by Foreign Buyer to Seller in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5(d)). If a Foreign Buyer becomes subject to, or bears the burden of imposition of, Taxes which such Foreign Buyer would not have become subject to or borne had it provided timely and valid IRS Forms to Seller in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5(d), Seller shall take such steps, subject to clause (B) below, as the Foreign Buyer may, in good faith, reasonably request be taken to assist such Foreign Buyer in recovering such Taxes, provided that, (A) any costs, expenses or other liabilities incurred or imposed on any party as a result of any such steps or actions taken by Seller at the request of the Foreign Buyer shall be entirely for the account of, and promptly paid in full by, such Foreign Buyer, and (B) in no event shall Seller be obligated hereunder to take any steps or actions requested by a Foreign Buyer to recover Taxes if, in Seller’s sole discretion, such steps or actions would or might have an adverse effect on Seller’s financial condition, business, legal positions, or relationships with any Governmental Authority.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival or any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 5 shall require Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(f) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it intends, and agrees, for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, to treat and report each Transaction as indebtedness issued by the Seller secured by the Purchased Loans and, consistent therewith, to treat and report the Purchased Loans as loans owned by Seller, in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller that is not cured. All parties to this Agreement hereby agree to take no action inconsistent with the tax treatment and tax reporting of the Transactions and the Purchased Loans, as described above, unless and only to the extent required by applicable United States federal, state or local income or franchise tax law.

6. MARGIN MAINTENANCE

(a) If at any time either (i) the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Loans subject to all Transactions is less than the aggregate MV Margin Amount for all such Transactions, or (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Purchased Loans subject to all Transactions is less than the aggregate Par Margin Amount for all such Transactions, (either such event, a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may, by notice to Seller, require Seller in such Transactions to transfer to Buyer cash within the time period specified in clause (b) below, so that both (x) the cash and aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Loans will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate MV Margin Amount and (y) the cash and unpaid principal balance of such Purchased Loans, will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate Par Margin Amount (either such requirement, a “Margin Call”). Buyer shall deposit such cash into a non-interest bearing account until the next succeeding Repurchase Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may elect in its sole discretion to permit Seller to transfer to Buyer additional Eligible Loans (“Additional Purchased Loans”) for no additional consideration or a combination of cash and Additional Purchased Loans, to cure a Margin Deficit, in either case within the time period set forth in clause (b) below.

(b) Notice required pursuant to Section 6(a) may be given by any means provided in Section 21 hereof. Any notice given shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, within twenty-four (24) hours. The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights under this Section 6, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. Seller and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

7. INCOME PAYMENTS

Where a particular term of a Transaction extends over the date on which Income is paid in respect of any Purchased Loan subject to that Transaction, such Income shall be the property of Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no Default has occurred and is continuing, Buyer agrees that Seller shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to all Income received in respect of the Purchased Loans, whether by Buyer, Custodian or any servicer or any other Person, which is not otherwise received by Seller, to the full extent it would be so entitled if the Purchased Loans had not been sold to Buyer; provided that any Income received by Seller while the related Transaction is outstanding shall be deemed to be held by Seller solely in trust for Buyer pending the repurchase on the related Repurchase Date. Upon and after the occurrence of a Default, the Seller shall cause all Income to be deposited into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt by the Servicer or Seller, as applicable. Upon the occurrence of a Default, Seller shall either (i) hold all such Income in the Collection Account or (ii) at the sole option of Buyer, cause all such Income to be remitted directly to the account designated by Buyer.

8. SECURITY INTEREST; BUYER’S APPOINTMENT AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT

(a) Seller and Buyer intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Loans (including, without limitation, the related Servicing Rights) and not loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Loans. However, in order to preserve Buyer’s rights under this Agreement in the event that a court or other forum recharacterizes the Transactions hereunder as other than sales, and as security for Seller’s performance of all of its Obligations, Seller hereby grants Buyer a perfected first priority security interest in all of Seller’s rights, title and interest in and to the following property, whether now existing or hereafter acquired: (i) all Purchased Loans identified on a Purchase Notice delivered by Buyer to Seller and Custodian from time to time, (ii) all related Loan Documents, including without

limitation all promissory notes, (iii) any other collateral pledged or otherwise relating to such Purchased Loans, together with all files, material documents, instruments, surveys (if available), certificates, correspondence, appraisals, computer records, computer storage media, Loan accounting records and other books and records relating thereto, (iv) the Servicing Records, and the related Servicing Rights, (v) all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any Records including without limitation any Servicing Records or other documents which constitute a part of the Mortgage File or Servicing File, (vi) the Collection Account and all Income relating to such Purchased Loans, (vii) all Loan Guaranty Certificates, other mortgage guaranties and insurance (issued by governmental agencies or otherwise) and any Mortgage Insurance Certificate or other document evidencing such mortgage guaranties or insurance relating to any Purchased Loans and all claims and payments thereunder and all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any of the foregoing, (viii) all interests in real property collateralizing any Purchased Loans, (ix) all other insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Purchased Loans or the related Mortgaged Property and all Insurance Proceeds and all rights of Seller to receive from any third party or to take delivery of any of the foregoing, (x) any purchase agreements or other agreements, contracts or any related takeout commitments, including without limitation any Takeout Commitments and Trade Assignments to the extent related to Purchased Loans subject to a Transaction (including the rights to receive the related takeout price and Buyer’s pro rata interest in the Security related to Purchased Loans subject to a Transaction as evidenced by such Takeout Commitments) to the extent relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing and all rights to receive documentation relating thereto, (xi) all “accounts”, “chattel paper”, “commercial tort claims”, “deposit accounts”, “documents,” “equipment”, “general intangibles”, “goods”, “instruments”, “inventory”, “investment property”, “letter of credit rights”, and “securities’ accounts” as each of those terms is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code and all cash and Cash Equivalents and all products and proceeds relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing, and (xii) any and all replacements, substitutions, distributions on or proceeds of any or all of the foregoing (collectively the “Purchased Items”).

Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Purchased Items (including without limitation, any security interest Seller may have in the Purchased Loans and any other collateral granted by Seller 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. Seller further acknowledges that it has no rights to the Servicing Rights related to the Purchased Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Seller is deemed to retain any residual Servicing Rights, 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, Seller further grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in and to all Servicing Records and rights to receive Servicing Records or other documents that constitute a part of the Mortgage File or Servicing File with respect to any Purchased Loan, and all Income related to the Purchased Loans received by Seller as Servicer, and all rights to receive such Income, and all products, proceeds and distributions relating to or constituting any or all of the foregoing (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 Seller’s Obligations to Buyer hereunder.

(b) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Buyer, and at Seller’s expense, Seller will promptly and duly execute and deliver, or will promptly cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments and documents and take such further action as Buyer may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the Purchased Items and the liens created hereby. Seller also hereby authorizes Buyer to file any such financing or continuation

statement without the signature of Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement for filing in any jurisdiction. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

(c) Seller shall not (i) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 12(m) hereof, (ii) change its name, identity or corporate structure (or the equivalent) or change the location where it maintains its records with respect to the Purchased Items, or (iii) reincorporate or reorganize under the laws of another jurisdiction unless it shall have given Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to Buyer all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as Buyer shall request and taken all other actions deemed reasonably necessary by Buyer to continue its perfected status in the Purchased Items with the same or better priority.

(d) Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Buyer and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Seller and in the name of Seller or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation, protecting, preserving and realizing upon the Purchased Items, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation, to protect, preserve and realize upon the Purchased Items, to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Purchased Items without Seller’s signature thereon as Buyer at its option may deem appropriate, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Seller, without assent by, but with notice to, Seller, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

(i) in the name of Seller, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any Purchased Items and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any Purchased Items whenever payable;

(ii) to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Purchased Items; and

(iii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Purchased Items to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct, including, without limitation, to send “goodbye” letters and Section 404 Notices on behalf of Seller and any applicable Servicer; (B) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Purchased Items; (C) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Purchased Items; (D) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Purchased Items or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Purchased Items; (E) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Seller with respect to any Purchased Items; (F) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (E) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; and (G) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge

and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Purchased Items as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Seller’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Purchased Items and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Seller might do.

Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable and shall survive termination of the Agreement. This power of attorney shall not revoke any prior powers of attorney granted by Seller.

Seller also authorizes Buyer, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 19 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Purchased Items.

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

(f) If Seller fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Program Documents and Buyer performs or complies, or otherwise causes performance or compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Buyer incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate, shall be payable by Seller to Buyer on demand and shall constitute Obligations.

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

(h) All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Purchased Items are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

(i) At Buyer's sole option, exercisable prospectively or retrospectively with respect to the Purchased Loans in whole or in part, and without notice to Seller or any other person, (i) the sale of the Purchased Loans to Buyer on each Purchase Date may be deemed a sale of a 100% participation interest, constituting 100% beneficial ownership, of the related Purchased Loans, in lieu of a sale to Buyer of the Purchased Loans themselves, and (ii) to such extent Seller is deemed to retain legal title to the Purchased Loans solely to service or supervise the servicing thereof, this Agreement will be deemed the related participation agreement in such event.

Seller’s tax identification number is 00-0000000. Seller’s fiscal year is the calendar year. No Seller Party has changed its name within the past twelve (12) months.

Each Seller Party has also heretofore furnished to Buyer the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for such Seller Party and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the one year period ending December 31, 2015. All such financial statements are complete and correct in all material respects and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of such Seller Party and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations for the fiscal year ended on said date, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. Since December 31, 2015, there has been no development or event nor any prospective development or event which has had or should reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Seller Party has any material contingent liability or liability for taxes or any long term lease or unusual forward or long term commitment, 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 date of this Agreement, no Seller Party has sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any material part of its property or assets (except pursuant to the Program Documents)

or acquired any property or assets (including Equity Interests of any other Person) that are material in relation to the financial condition of such Seller Party.

(c) Litigation. There are no actions, suits, arbitrations, investigations or proceedings pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against such Seller Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or affecting any of the property thereof before any Governmental Authority, (i) as to which individually or in the aggregate there is a reasonable likelihood of an adverse decision which would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) which questions the validity or enforceability of any of the Program Documents or any action to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, or (iii) which seeks to prevent the consummation of any Transaction.

(d) No Breach. Neither (a) the execution and delivery of the Program Documents, nor (b) the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated in compliance with the terms and provisions thereof will conflict with or result in a breach of the charter or by-laws of such Seller Party, or any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority, or other material agreement or instrument to which such Seller Party is a party or by which any Seller Party or any Seller Party’s property is bound or to which any of them or their property is subject, or constitute a default under any such material agreement or instrument, or (except for the Liens created pursuant to this Agreement) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of any Seller Party, pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.

(e) Action.

Any taxes, fees and other governmental charges payable by such Seller Party in connection with a Transaction and the execution and delivery of the Program Documents have been paid.

(h) Investment Company Act. No Seller Party is an “investment company” or a company controlled by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Investment Company Act other than those set forth in Sections 3(c)(1) and 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.

(i) No Legal Bar.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Schedule 1 with respect to the Purchased Loans shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of Buyer. The fact that Buyer has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete due diligence investigation in connection with its purchase of any Purchased Loan shall not affect Buyer’s right to demand repurchase of such Purchased Loan as provided under this Agreement. Seller shall, upon the earlier of Seller’s discovery or Seller receiving notice with respect to any Purchased Loan of (i) any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Schedule 1, or (ii) any failure to deliver any of the items required to be delivered as part of the Mortgage File within the time period required for delivery pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, promptly cure such breach or delivery failure in all material respects. If on the Business Day after the earlier of Seller’s discovery of such breach or delivery failure or Seller receiving notice thereof that such breach or delivery failure has not been remedied by Seller and such breach or delivery failure would cause Buyer to require the repurchase of such Purchased Loan, Seller shall promptly upon receipt of written instructions from Buyer repurchase such Purchased Loan at the Repurchase Price with respect to such Purchased Loan by wire transfer to the account designated by Buyer. Income with respect to such Purchased Loans received by Buyer after payment of the Repurchase Price shall be remitted to Seller in accordance with Section 7. In the event that it is discovered that the circumstances with respect to any Purchased Loan are not accurately reflected in any of the applicable representations and warranties made by Seller set forth in Schedule 1 to this Agreement, notwithstanding the actual knowledge or lack of knowledge of Seller, and notwithstanding that such representation and warranty is made “to the best of Seller’s knowledge,” then such representation and warranty shall be deemed to be breached.

19. REMEDIES

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Buyer, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 18(g), (h), (i) or (j) hereof), shall have the right to exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(a)(i) The Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (provided that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). Seller’s obligations hereunder to repurchase all Purchased Loans at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date in such Transactions shall thereupon become immediately due and payable; all Income then on deposit in the Collection Account and all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be remitted to and retained by Buyer and applied to the aggregate Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder; Seller shall immediately deliver to Buyer or its designee any and all original papers, Records and files relating to the Purchased Loans subject to such Transaction then in Seller’s possession and/or control; and all right, title and interest in and entitlement to such Purchased Loans (including the Servicing Rights thereon) shall be deemed transferred to Buyer or its designee.

(ii) Buyer shall have the right to (A) sell, on or following the Business Day following the date on which the Repurchase Price became due and payable pursuant to Section 19(a)(i) without notice or demand of any kind, at a public or private sale and at such price or prices as Buyer may deem commercially reasonable any or all Purchased Loans and/or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Loans, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Loans in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder, provided, however, with respect to Purchased Loans with a Market Value of zero, Buyer shall in its sole discretion either sell such Purchased Loans in accordance with clause (A) of this Section 19(a)(ii) or release such Purchased Loans to Seller. Seller shall remain liable to Buyer for any amounts that remain owing to Buyer following a sale and/or credit under the preceding sentence. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Loans shall be applied first to the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default; second, costs of cover and/or related hedging transactions; third to the aggregate Repurchase Prices; and fourth to all other Obligations.

(iii) Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and declare all obligations of Seller to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in accordance with Section 21 hereof provided no such notice shall be required for an Event of Default pursuant to Section 18(g), (h), (i) or (j).

(iv) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Loans on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Loans may not be liquid. In view of the nature of the Purchased Loans, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or the underlying Purchased Loans does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Buyer may elect the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Loans and nothing contained herein shall obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Loans on the occurrence of an Event of Default or to liquidate all Purchased Loans in the same manner or on the same Business Day or constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties to this Agreement agree that the Transactions have been entered into in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual obligation and that each Transaction has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions.

(v) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller waives all claims, damages and demands Seller may acquire against Buyer arising out of the exercise by Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Purchased Items shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 2 days before such sale or other disposition.

(b) Seller hereby acknowledges, admits and agrees that Seller’s obligations under this Agreement are recourse obligations of Seller to which Seller pledges its full faith and credit. In addition to its rights hereunder, Buyer shall have the right to proceed against any of Seller’s assets which may be in the possession of Buyer, any of Buyer’s Affiliates or their respective designees (including Custodian), including the right to liquidate such assets and to set‑off the proceeds against monies owed by (x) Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and (y) any Credit Party to Buyer pursuant to the related Citi Credit Facility. Buyer may set off cash, the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Loans, any other Purchased Items and their proceeds and all other sums or obligations owed by Buyer, or any of Buyer’s Affiliates, to Seller against all of (i) Seller’s obligations to Buyer, whether under this Agreement, under a Transaction, or under any other agreement among the parties, and (ii) the obligations of each Credit Party to Buyer under the related Citi Credit Facility, or under any other agreement among the parties, in each case whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency.

(c) Buyer shall have the right to obtain physical possession of the Servicing Records and all other files of Seller relating to the Purchased Loans and all documents relating to the Purchased Loans which are then or may thereafter come into the possession of Seller or any third party acting for Seller and Seller shall deliver to Buyer such assignments as Buyer shall request.

(d) Buyer shall have the right to direct all Persons servicing the Purchased Loans to take such action with respect to the Purchased Loans as Buyer determines appropriate.

(e) Buyer shall, without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Obligations, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver by any court having jurisdiction, without notice, to take possession of and protect, collect, manage, liquidate, and sell the Purchased Loans and any other Purchased Items or any portion thereof, collect the payments due with respect to the Purchased Loans and any other Purchased Items or any portion thereof, and do anything that Buyer is authorized hereunder or by law to do. Seller shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the appointment and activities of such receiver.

(f) Buyer may, at its option, enter into one or more interest rate protection agreements covering all or a portion of the Purchased Loans, and Seller shall be responsible for all damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Buyer relating to or arising out of such interest rate protection agreements for a period of thirty (30) days following the occurrence of an Event of Default; including without limitation any losses resulting from such interest rate protection agreements.

(g) In addition to all the rights and remedies specifically provided herein, Buyer shall have all other rights and remedies provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws, whether existing at law, in equity or by statute, including, without limitation, all rights and remedies available to a purchaser or a secured party, as applicable, under the Uniform Commercial Code.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to exercise any of its rights and/or remedies without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind other than as expressly set forth herein, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Seller.

Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, any right Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense Seller might otherwise have to the Obligations, arising from use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Purchased Loans and any other Purchased Items or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes 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.

Seller shall cause all sums received by it with respect to the Purchased Loans to be deposited to the Collection Account. Seller shall be liable to Buyer for the amount of all expenses (plus interest thereon at a rate equal to the Post-Default Rate).

20. DELAY NOT WAIVER; REMEDIES ARE CUMULATIVE

No failure on the part of Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Buyer of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All rights and remedies of Buyer provided for herein are cumulative and in addition to any and all other rights and remedies provided by law, the Program Documents and the other instruments and agreements contemplated hereby and thereby, and are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by Buyer to exercise any of its rights under any other related document. Buyer may exercise at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default one or more remedies, as they so desire, and may thereafter at any time and from time to time exercise any other remedy or remedies.

21. NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS

Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, all notices, requests and other communications provided for herein and under the Custodial Agreement (including, without limitation, any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including, without limitation, by telex or telecopy or Electronic Transmission) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages hereof); or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except for notices given by Seller under Section 3(b) (which shall be effective only on receipt), all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted (i) by Electronic Transmission and followed by written notice via overnight courier or (ii) by telex or telecopier or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

22. USE OF EMPLOYEE PLAN ASSETS

23. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXPENSES

(a) Seller agrees to hold Buyer, its Affiliates and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify any Indemnified Party against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party (collectively, the “Costs”) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, that, in each case, results from anything other than any Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Party in connection with any Loan for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Loan, Seller will save, indemnify and hold such Indemnified Party harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of the account debtor or obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by 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 obligor or its successors from Seller. Seller also agrees to reimburse any Indemnified Party as and when billed by such Indemnified Party for all such Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or the preservation of such Indemnified Party’s rights under this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel.

THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

(c) If Seller fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of Seller by Buyer, in its sole discretion and Seller shall remain liable for any such payments by Buyer. No such payment by Buyer shall be deemed a waiver of any of Buyer’s rights under the Program Documents.

40. SINGLE AGREEMENT

Seller and Buyer acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of each other. Accordingly, Seller, Servicer and Buyer each agree (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, and (ii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by any of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transaction hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

Seller and Buyer intend that this Agreement and each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement,” as that term is defined in section 101(47)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, a “securities contract,” as that term is defined in section 741(7)(A)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement,” as that term is defined in section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code; and that the pledge of the Related Credit Enhancement in Section 8(a) hereof is intended to constitute “a security agreement or arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” this Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Seller and Buyer further intend that Buyer be entitled to, without limitation, the liquidation, termination, acceleration, setoff and non-avoidability rights afforded to parties such as Buyer to “repurchase agreements,” pursuant to sections 559, 362(b)(7) and 546(f) of the Bankruptcy Code; “securities contracts,” pursuant to sections 555, 362(b)(6) and 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code; and “master netting agreements,” pursuant to sections 561, 362(b)(27) and 546(j) of the Bankruptcy Code.

42. CONFIDENTIALITY

The Program Documents and their respective terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and transactions and notices thereunder, are proprietary to Buyer and shall be held by Seller in strict confidence

and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the consent of Buyer except for (i) disclosure to Seller’s Affiliates, directors, attorneys, agents or accountants, provided that such attorneys or accountants likewise agree to be bound by this covenant of confidentiality, or are otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions or (ii) upon prior written notice to Buyer, disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body or (iii) when circumstances reasonably permit, any disclosures or filing required under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or state securities’ laws; provided that in the case of disclosure by any party pursuant to the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), Seller shall take reasonable actions to provide Buyer with prior written notice; provided further that in the case of (iii), Seller shall not file any of the Program Documents other than the Agreement and the Guaranty with the SEC or state securities office unless Seller shall have provided at least thirty (30) days (or such lesser time as may be demanded by the SEC or state securities office) prior written notice of such filing to Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For this purpose, tax treatment and tax structure shall not include (i) the identity of any existing or future party (or any Affiliate of such party) to this Agreement or (ii) any specific pricing information or other commercial terms, including the amount of any fees, expenses, rates or payments arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

43. SERVICING

(a) Seller and Servicer covenant to maintain or cause the servicing of the Purchased Loans to be maintained in conformity with Accepted Servicing Practices and pursuant to the related underlying Servicing Agreement. In the event that the preceding language is interpreted as constituting one or more servicing contracts, each such servicing contract shall terminate automatically upon the earliest of (i) the termination thereof by Buyer pursuant to subsection (d) below, (ii) thirty (30) days after the last Purchase Date of such Purchased Loan, (iii) a Default or an Event of Default, (iv) the date on which all the Obligations have been paid in full, or (v) the transfer of servicing to any entity approved by Buyer and the assumption thereof by such entity. Upon any such termination, Seller and Servicer, as applicable, shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 13(hh) as to the delivery of the Servicing Records and the physical servicing of each Purchased Loan.

(b) During any period Seller or Servicer is servicing any Purchased Loans, (i) Seller and Servicer agree that Buyer is the owner of the Servicing Rights and all servicing records, including but not limited to any and all servicing agreements, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of such Loans (the “Servicing Records”), and (ii) Seller as Servicer grants Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees and rights relating to the Purchased Loans and all Servicing Records to secure the obligation of Seller, Servicer or any Subservicer to service in conformity with this Section 43 and any other obligation of Seller and/or Servicer to Buyer. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Servicer covenants to hold such Servicing Records in trust for Buyer and to safeguard, or cause each Subservicer to safeguard, such Servicing Records and to deliver them, or cause any such Subservicer to deliver them to the extent permitted under the related Servicing Agreement promptly to Buyer or its designee (including Custodian) at Buyer’s request or otherwise as required by operation of Section 13(hh) hereof. It is understood and agreed by the parties that prior to an Event of Default, Servicer may retain the servicing fees with respect to the Purchased Loans.

(c) If any Loan that is proposed to be sold on a Purchase Date is serviced by a servicer other than Seller or Servicer (including any interim servicer) (a “Subservicer”), or if the servicing of any

Purchased Loan is to be transferred to a Subservicer, Seller shall provide a copy of the related servicing agreement and an Instruction Letter executed by such Subservicer (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) to Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to such Purchase Date or transfer date, as applicable, which Servicing Agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to Buyer. In addition, Seller shall have obtained the prior written consent of Buyer for such Subservicer to subservice the Loans.

(d) In addition to the rights provided in Section 43(a), Buyer shall have the right, exercisable at any time in its sole discretion, upon written notice, to terminate Seller, Servicer or any Subservicers as servicer or subservicer, respectively, and any related Servicing Agreement. With respect to any Servicing Rights, any such termination shall be effective as of the date that occurs thirty (30) days after the last Purchase Date. Upon the effectiveness of any such termination, Servicer shall transfer or shall cause Subservicer to transfer such servicing with respect to such Purchased Loans to Buyer or its designee, at no cost or expense to Buyer. Seller and Servicer, as applicable, agree to cooperate with Buyer in connection with the transfer of servicing.

(e) Buyer shall have the right in its sole discretion to appoint a third party to perform due diligence with respect to Servicer’s servicing facilities at any time. Servicer shall cooperate with Buyer and/or its designees to provide access to Servicer’s servicing facilities including without limitation its books and records with respect to Servicer’s servicing portfolio and the Purchased Loans. In addition to the foregoing, Servicer shall permit Buyer to inspect upon reasonable prior written notice at a mutually convenient time, Servicer’s servicing facilities, as the case may be, for the purpose of satisfying Buyer that Servicer has the ability to service the Loans as provided in this Agreement and in any Servicing Agreement. In addition, with respect to any Subservicer which is not an Affiliate of Servicer, Servicer shall use its best efforts to enable Buyer to inspect the servicing facilities of such Subservicer and to cause such Subservicer to cooperate with Buyer and/or its designees in connection with any due diligence performed by Buyer and/or such designees in accordance with this Section 43(e). Seller and Buyer further agree that all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with any due diligence or inspection performed pursuant to this Section 43(e) shall be paid by Buyer.

44. PERIODIC DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW

Seller and Servicer acknowledge that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties, covenants and specifications made hereunder or under any other Program Document, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice to Seller or Servicer (provided that upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, no such prior notice shall be required), Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, make copies of, and make extracts of, the Mortgage Files, the Servicing Records and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller, Servicer and/or Custodian. Seller and Servicer also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer shall purchase Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right, at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Loans, including, without limitation, ordering new credit reports, new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate the related Loan. Buyer may underwrite such Loans itself or engage a third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in

connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller. In addition, Buyer has the right to perform continuing Due Diligence Reviews (including, without limitation, operational, legal, corporate and background due diligence) of Seller, Servicer and its Affiliates, directors, and their respective Subsidiaries and the officers, employees and significant shareholders thereof. Seller and Buyer further agree that all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Buyer’s activities pursuant to this Section 44 shall be paid by Seller.

45. SET-OFF

In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer provided by this Agreement and by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all Property and deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller or any other Credit Party. Buyer may set-off cash, the proceeds of the liquidation of any Purchased Items and all other sums or obligations owed by Buyer or its Affiliates to Seller against all of Seller’s or any Credit Party’s obligations to Buyer or its Affiliates, whether under this Agreement with respect to Seller or any Citi Credit Facility with respect to any Credit Party or under any other agreement between the parties or between Seller or any Credit Party and any Affiliate of Buyer, or otherwise, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s right to recover any deficiency. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller and each Credit Party after any such set-off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

46. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement and the other Program Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto and thereto and supersede any and all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings relating to the matters provided for herein and therein. No alteration, waiver, amendments, or change or supplement hereto shall be binding or effective unless the same is set forth in writing by a duly authorized representative of each party hereto.

47. AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT

Buyer and Seller entered into the Original Agreement. Buyer and Seller desire to enter into this Agreement in order to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety. Effective as of the date hereof, the terms and provisions of that certain Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2012, by and between Buyer and Seller (the “Original Agreement”) shall be and hereby are amended, superseded and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

ANNEX I

BUYER ACTING AS AGENT

This Annex I forms a part of the Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement dated as of March 3, 2017, (the “Agreement”) by and between PennyMac Loan Services, LLC and Citibank, N.A. This Annex I sets forth the terms and conditions governing all transactions in which Buyer selling assets or buying assets, as the case may be (“Agent”), in a Transaction is acting as agent for one or more third parties (each, a “Principal”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Annex I shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

1. Additional Representations. Agent hereby makes the following representations, which shall continue during the term of any Transaction: Principal has duly authorized Agent to execute and deliver the Agreement and the other Program Documents on its behalf, has the power to so authorize Agent and to enter into the Transactions contemplated by the Agreement and the other Program Documents and to perform the obligations of Buyer under such Transactions, and has taken all necessary action to authorize such execution and delivery by Agent and such performance by it.

2. Identification of Principals. Agent agrees (a) to provide the other party, prior to the date on which the parties agree to enter into any Transaction under the Agreement, with a written list of Principals for which it intends to act as Agent (which list may be amended in writing from time to time with the consent of the other party) and (b) to provide the other party, before the close of business on the next business day after orally agreeing to enter into a Transaction, with notice of the specific Principal or Principals for whom it is acting in connection with such Transaction. If (i) Agent fails to identify such Principal or Principals prior to the close of business on such next business day or (ii) the other party shall determine in its sole discretion any Principal or Principals identified by Agent are not acceptable to it, the other party may reject and rescind any Transaction with such Principal or Principals, return to Agent any Purchased Loans or portion of the Purchase Price, as the case may be, previously transferred to the other party and refuse any further performance under such Transaction, and Agent shall immediately return to the other party any portion of the Purchase Price or Purchased Loans, as the case may be, previously transferred to Agent in connection with such Transaction; provided, however, that (A) the other party shall promptly (and in any event within one business day) notify Agent of its determination to reject and rescind such Transaction and (B) to the extent that any performance was rendered by any party under any Transaction rejected by the other party, and such party shall remain entitled to any Price Differential or other amounts that would have been payable to it with respect to such performance if such Transaction had not been rejected. The other party acknowledges that Agent shall not have any obligation to provide it with confidential information regarding the financial status of its Principals; Agent agrees, however, that it will assist the other party in obtaining from Agent’s Principals such Information regarding the financial status of such Principals as the other party may reasonably request.

3. Limitation of Agent’s Liability. The parties expressly acknowledge that if the representations of Agent under the Agreement, including this Annex I, are true and correct in all material respects during the term of any Transaction and Agent otherwise complies with the provisions of this Annex I, then (a) Agent’s obligations under the Agreement shall not include a guarantee of performance by its Principal or Principals; provided that Agent shall remain liable for performance pursuant to Section 10 of the Agreement, and (b) the other party’s remedies shall not include a right of setoff

Annex 1-1

in respect of rights or obligations, if any, of Agent arising in other transactions in which Agent is acting as principal.

4. Multiple Principals.

(a) In the event that Agent proposes to act for more than one Principal hereunder, Agent and the other party shall elect whether (i) to treat Transactions under the Agreement as transactions entered into on behalf of separate Principals or (ii) to aggregate such Transactions as if they were transactions by a single Principal. Failure to make such an election in writing shall be deemed an election to treat Transactions under the Agreement as transactions on behalf of a single Principal.

(b) In the event that Agent and the other party elect (or are deemed to elect) to treat Transactions under the Agreement as transactions on behalf of separate Principals, the parties agree that (i) Agent will provide the other party, together with the notice described in Section 2(b) of this Annex I, notice specifying the portion of each Transaction allocable to the account of each of the Principals for which it is acting (to the extent that any such Transaction is allocable to the account of more than one Principal); (ii) the portion of any individual Transaction allocable to each Principal shall be deemed a separate Transaction under the Agreement; (iii) the margin maintenance obligations of Seller under Section 6(a) of the Agreement shall be determined on a Transaction‑by‑Transaction basis (unless the parties agree to determine such obligations on a Principal‑by‑Principal basis); and (iv) Buyer’s remedies under the Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be determined as if Agent had entered into a separate Agreement with the other party on behalf of each of its Principals.

(c) In the event that Agent and the other party elect to treat Transactions under the Agreement as if they were transactions by a single Principal, the parties agree that (i) Agent’s notice under Section 2(b) of this Annex I need only identify the names of its Principals but not the portion of each Transaction allocable to each Principal’s account; (ii) the margin maintenance obligations of Seller under Section 6(a) of the Agreement shall, subject to any greater requirement imposed by applicable law, be determined on an aggregate basis for all Transactions entered into by Agent on behalf of any Principal; and (iii) Buyer’s remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be determined as if all Principals were a single Buyer.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement (including, without limitation, this Annex I), the parties agree that any Transactions by Agent on behalf of an employee benefit plan under ERISA shall be treated as Transactions on behalf of separate Principals in accordance with Section 4(b) of this Annex I (and all margin maintenance obligations of the parties shall be determined on a Transaction‑by‑Transaction basis).

5. Interpretation of Terms. All references to “Buyer” in the Agreement shall, subject to the provisions of this Annex I (including, among other provisions, the limitations on Agent’s liability in Section 3 of this Annex I), be construed to reflect that (i) each Principal shall have, in connection with any Transaction or Transactions entered into by Agent on its behalf, the rights, responsibilities, privileges and obligations of a “Buyer”, directly entering into such Transaction or Transactions with the other party under the Agreement, and (ii) Agent’s Principal or Principals have designated Agent as their sole agent for performance of Buyer’s obligations to Seller and for receipt of performance by Seller of its obligations to Buyer in connection with any Transaction or

Annex 1-2

Transactions under the Agreement (including, among other things, as Agent for each Principal in connection with transfers of Loans, securities, cash or other property and as agent for giving and receiving all notices under the Agreement). Both Agent and its Principal or Principals shall be deemed “parties” to the Agreement and all references to a “party” or “either party” in the Agreement shall be deemed revised accordingly.

Annex 1-3

Schedule 1

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE: LOANS

Eligible Loans

As to each Loan that is subject to a Transaction hereunder (and the related Mortgage, Note, Assignment of Mortgage and Mortgaged Property), Seller shall be deemed to make the following representations and warranties to Buyer as of the Purchase Date and as of each date such Loan is subject to a Transaction:

(a) Loans as Described. The information set forth in the Loan Schedule with respect to the Loan is complete, true and correct in all material respects.

(b) Payments Current. The first Monthly Payment shall have been made prior to the second scheduled Monthly Payment becoming due.

(c) No Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults in complying with the terms of the Mortgage securing the Loan, and all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid, or will be paid prior to any economic loss or forfeiture of the related Mortgaged Property or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. Except as disclosed to Buyer, Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of the Note or date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Loan, whichever is more recent, to the day which precedes by one month the Due Date of the first installment of principal and interest thereunder.

(d) Original Terms Unmodified. Any waiver, alteration or modification of the Note and/or Mortgage has been made pursuant to a written instrument. Any waiver, alteration or modification of the Note and/or Mortgage that has the effect of increasing the balance of the Loan is flagged on the Loan Schedule. The original principal balance and current outstanding balance (including any capitalized amounts) of each Loan are listed on the Loan Schedule.

(e) Licensing. No Loan is secured by a Mortgaged Property located in any state in which Seller is not licensed to own mortgage loans or otherwise not required to be so licensed.

(f) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the date of origination; except by a written instrument which has been recorded or sent out for recording (or promptly will be recorded, in the case of any of the foregoing that occurs after the related Purchase Date), if necessary to protect the interests of Buyer, and which has been delivered to Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Loan Schedule. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by the title insurance policy, and its terms are reflected on the Loan Schedule. No Mortgagor in respect of the Loan has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File delivered to Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Loan Schedule.

Schedule 1-1

(g) FHA Approval. All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage, whether as mortgagee or assignee, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) an FHA Approved Mortgagee.

(h) FHA Insurance; VA Loan Guaranty. With respect to the FHA Loans, the FHA Insurance Contract is in full force and effect and there exists no impairment to full recovery without indemnity to the Department of Housing and Urban Development or the FHA under FHA Mortgage Insurance. With respect to the VA Loans, the VA Loan Guaranty Agreement is in full force and effect to the maximum extent stated therein. All necessary steps have been taken to keep such guaranty or insurance valid, binding and enforceable and each of such is the binding, valid and enforceable obligation of the FHA and the VA, respectively, to the full extent thereof, without surcharge, set-off or defense. Each FHA Loan and VA Loan was originated in accordance with the criteria of an Agency for purchase of such Loans.

(i) No Defenses. The Loan is not subject to any right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor in respect of the Loan was a debtor in any state or Federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Loan was originated.

(j) Hazard Insurance. All buildings or other improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a Qualified Insurer acceptable to Xxxxxxx Mac and Xxxxxx Xxx against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) 100% of the replacement cost (as calculated by the Qualified Insurer) of all improvements to the Mortgaged Property, and (2) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan with respect to each Loan; provided, however, in no event shall the amount of insurance be less than (x) the minimum amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis, and (y) the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property. All such insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available) a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Flood Insurance Administration is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, which policy conforms to the requirements of Xxxxxx Mae and Xxxxxxx Mac and in an amount not less than the greater of (1) lesser of (a) 100% of the replacement cost of all improvements to the Mortgaged Property and (b) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan with respect to each First Lien Mortgage Loan and (2) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended; provided, however, in no event shall the amount of insurance be less than the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property. Each Mortgage Loan is covered by a “life of loan” Flood Zone Service Contract which is assignable to the Buyer or its designee at no cost to the Buyer or its designee or, for each Mortgage Loan not covered by such Flood Zone Service Contract, the Seller agrees to pay the related fee.

Schedule 1-2

The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission except (i) in connection with an assumption agreement which has been approved by the FHA, to the extent required by the applicable FHA Insurance Contract, (ii) in the case of a release of a portion of the land comprising a Mortgaged Property or (iii) a release of a blanket Mortgage which release will not cause the Loan to fail to satisfy the Underwriting Guidelines.

The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

(1) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

(2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Loan and (a) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal; and

(3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Loan, on the property described therein and Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same to Buyer.

Schedule 1-3

(o) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Note and the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor or guarantor, if applicable, in connection with a Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms.

All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Note or Mortgage.

(q) Ownership. Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Loan. The Loan is not assigned or pledged, and Seller has good, indefeasible and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer, pledge and assign the Loan to Buyer free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to assign, transfer and pledge each Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the pledge of each Loan, Buyer will hold such Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest except any such security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Schedule 1-4

Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to the FHA, VA, Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of paragraph (j) of this Part I of Schedule 1, with respect to each Loan, and in the case of Adjustable Rate Loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment to the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception with a specific survey reading. Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder or servicer of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(v) No Mechanics’ Liens. There are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with the lien of the Mortgage.

(w) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, all improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.

Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property.

(hh) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the origination of the Loan have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term.

The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Loan.
