Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) Buyer is not providing a commitment to enter into any Transactions hereunder, (ii) Buyer shall not be obligated to consummate any Transaction hereunder unless the applicable Sellers has received the full amount of the Purchase Price for such Transaction directly from the Purchasers and (iii) Buyer shall not be obligated to fund any amount of the Purchase Price for any Transaction hereunder if any Purchaser fails to fund such amount.

(b) In the event that one or more of the Sellers desire to enter into a Transaction hereunder, such Sellers shall deliver to Buyer prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Purchase Date, a signed Confirmation. The Confirmation, together with this Agreement and the Letter Agreement, shall constitute conclusive evidence of the terms agreed to between Buyer and the applicable Sellers with respect to the Transaction to which the Confirmation relates. In the event of any conflict between the terms of such Confirmation and this Agreement or between the terms of such Confirmation and the Letter Agreement, the terms of this Agreement or, if applicable, of the Letter Agreement, shall prevail. Not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the applicable Purchase Date, the Agent shall have received the Trust Receipt from the Custodian in accordance with Paragraph 9(b)(i) of the Letter Agreement. The Purchase Price with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the applicable Sellers to the account specified pursuant to Paragraph 17(a) not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Purchase Date subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth herein and in the Letter Agreement.

(c) The termination of each Transaction will be effected on the Repurchase Date set forth in the related Confirmation. Termination of each Transaction will be effected by transfer to the applicable Sellers or their agents of the Purchased Mortgage Loans against the transfer of the applicable Repurchase Price to the Group Agents in accordance with the Letter Agreement.

(d) Each Confirmation shall include a calculation of the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and a Daily Market Value Report, in each case, after giving effect to such Confirmation. On the Initial Purchase Date, the applicable Sellers shall include with their Confirmation the Initial Loan Schedule. On each subsequent Purchase Date, the applicable Sellers shall include with each Confirmation a Supplemental Loan Schedule with respect to all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans after giving effect to the subject Transaction. Each Seller shall determine, in accordance with its standard policies and procedures, the Market Value of each Purchased Mortgage Loan transferred by it and included (or to be included) in such calculations and the related Loan Schedule, which Market Values shall be determined as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such Confirmation is delivered and will provide promptly upon request the data and assumptions for each such Purchased Mortgage Loan based on which such Market Value was determined. Within three (3) Business Days after the date on which Buyer receives a Confirmation or Daily Market Value Report, Buyer may dispute a Seller’s or Servicer’s determination of Market Value by notifying such Seller or Servicer of the discrepancy in writing. Each Seller or Servicer and Buyer will make a good faith effort to resolve the discrepancy in the calculation of Market Value. If the discrepancy is not resolved within five (5) days in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, such Seller or Servicer, as applicable, will be required to re-calculate the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans using the market values proposed by a mutually reasonably agreeable third party, or if such third party cannot be determined within in such five (5) day period, using the market values proposed by Buyer. Such recalculated Market Value shall be used in any reports delivered to the Buyer, the Purchasers or the Custodian until the calculation of Market Value dispute is resolved to the satisfaction of Buyer in a good faith, commercially reasonable manner. Following the resolution of the dispute, such Seller or Servicer, as applicable, will incorporate adjustments, if any, agreed to with Buyer in future calculations of the Market Value.

(e) The Sellers are jointly and severally obligated to pay the applicable Repurchase Price and repurchase the related Purchased Mortgage Loans from Buyer on the applicable Repurchase Date. The Sellers shall satisfy the Repurchase Conditions with respect to each repurchase hereunder on or prior to the Repurchase Date; provided that the failure to so satisfy any Repurchase Condition shall not relieve the Sellers of their joint and several obligations to pay the Repurchase Price on the applicable Repurchase Date with respect to any Transaction hereunder. Each obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan. The applicable Sellers may accelerate the Repurchase Date with respect to any Transaction by written notice to the Agent and the Group Agents, provided that the Repurchase Conditions have been satisfied as of such accelerated Repurchase Date. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of the Repurchase Conditions with respect to any repurchase, each Seller agrees that (i) if the portion of any Repurchase Price received by any Group for such repurchase is less than $500,000, the applicable Group Agent may elect to hold all or a portion of such amount until it elects, in a commercially reasonable manner, to apply such amounts to the repayment of the Promissory Notes or other funds raised to fund the applicable Tranche (provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount so held under this clause (i) is greater than or equal to $500,000, such Group Agent shall be required to immediately apply such amount) and (ii) the Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable to pay the amounts required to be paid pursuant to Paragraph 7 of the Letter Agreement with respect to any such amounts so held pursuant to clause (i).

(f) With respect to any Transaction, Buyer may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to any Seller in acting upon, any request or other communication that Buyer reasonably believes to have been given or made by any Authorized Representative.

4.	Margin Maintenance

(a) If on any Business Day the Net Collateral Value is less than the aggregate Purchase Price for all outstanding Transactions at such time (a “Margin Deficit”), then Sellers shall jointly and severally be required, to transfer to Buyer no later than 2:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day, cash or additional Mortgage Loans (such additional Mortgage Loans being referred to as “Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans”) so that the cash and Net Collateral Value, including any such Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans, will thereupon equal or exceed the aggregate Purchase Price for all outstanding Transactions at such time (after re-calculating the Required Reserve Amount on such additional Mortgage Loans or remaining Mortgage Loans). Any cash received on such day shall be applied to reduce the Purchase Price in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on the next Business Day.

(b) If on any Business Day the Net Collateral Value exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price for all outstanding Transactions at such time (a “Margin Excess”), then Sellers may by notice to Buyer request that Buyer transfer cash or Purchased Mortgage Loans to Sellers, so that the Net Collateral Value, after deduction of any such cash or any Purchased Mortgage Loans so transferred, will thereupon not exceed such aggregate Purchase Price. Any such request for Buyer to transfer cash must be made in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Buyer’s obligation to transfer cash in connection with any such request shall be subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 9(b) of the Letter Agreement, and Buyer’s obligation to transfer Purchased

Mortgage Loans to Sellers in connection with any such request shall be subject to satisfaction of the Repurchase Conditions. If Purchased Mortgage Loans are to be transferred to one or more of the Sellers in connection with a Margin Excess, then such Sellers may direct the Custodian to release such Purchased Mortgage Loans in an amount not to exceed the applicable Margin Excess; provided, that, all terms and conditions (including the Repurchase Conditions) set forth herein and in the Letter Agreement with respect to such Transaction have been complied with.

(c) To the extent there are funds on deposit in the Buyer’s Account on any day after the application to and payment of all amounts then due and payable to the Agent, the Group Agents and the Purchasers, then the Sellers may (or if Buyer has exercised exclusive control of the Buyer’s Account, at the request of the Sellers, Buyer shall) direct the Custodian to release such funds to the Sellers; provided, that no funds shall be released unless after giving effect to such release, all of the conditions set forth in clauses (ii) through (x) of Paragraph 9(b) of the Letter Agreement shall be satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that amounts received into the Buyer’s Account cannot be applied to or transferred for the payment of any amounts then due and payable to the Agent, any Group Agent or any Purchaser because of the failure to satisfy the Repurchase Conditions or for any other reason, then no funds on deposit in the Buyer’s Account shall be released to any Seller until after such amounts can be applied to or transferred for the payment of such amounts then due and payable; provided that such funds shall be applied to or transferred for the payment of such amounts on the earlier of: (i) the date on which the Repurchase Conditions are satisfied, in the case of a repurchase of Purchased Mortgage Loans and (ii) two (2) Business Days after such funds are received in the Buyer’s Account.

(d) Any cash transferred pursuant to this Paragraph 4 shall be allocated pro rata among the Purchase Prices for all of the outstanding Transactions.

(e) Each Seller agrees to calculate (or cause Servicer to calculate) the Market Value of each Mortgage Loan to be transferred by it on the requested Purchase Date and on each Business Day thereafter.

5.	Collections

The Sellers shall cause the Collections to be managed and administered in accordance with the provisions of the Letter Agreement. The Buyer may deliver a “Notice of Exclusive Control” under, and as such term is defined in, the Account Control Agreement at any time in its sole discretion.

6.	Security Interest

Although the parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases and not loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans, each Seller shall be deemed to have pledged, and hereby does pledge, to Buyer as security for the performance by all Sellers of their obligations under each such Transaction, and all of their payment and performance obligations under the Transaction Documents and shall be deemed to have granted, and hereby does grant, to Buyer a security interest in, all of such Seller’s now existing or hereafter acquired or arising right, title and interest in, to and under (i) all of the Purchased

Mortgage Loans with respect to all Transactions to which such Seller is a party hereunder, (ii) all Mortgage Notes, Mortgages and Related Security related to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, and (iii) all proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”). Each Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statements relating to such Seller’s rights in the Purchased Assets as Buyer may deem appropriate, and appoints Buyer as such Seller’s attorney-in-fact in accordance with Paragraph 16 to (i) authenticate any such financing statement or statements in such Seller’s name and (ii) take such other actions as Buyer deems necessary or appropriate to perfect and continue the lien and security interest granted hereby and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Purchased Assets. Sellers shall pay all fees and expenses associated with perfecting such security interest including, without limitation, the cost of filing financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code and recording assignments of mortgage as and when required by Buyer in its sole discretion. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, and Buyer shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law and each of Sellers and Buyer represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of amounts by a Seller to Buyer or a Purchaser under this Agreement or the Letter Agreement will have been (x) in payment of a debt incurred by such Seller in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of such Seller and the Purchasers and (y) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of such Seller and the Purchasers.

7.	Payment and Transfer

Unless otherwise mutually agreed, all transfers of funds hereunder shall be in immediately available funds.

8.	Segregation of Documents Relating to Purchased Mortgage Loans

All documents relating to Purchased Mortgage Loans in the possession of a Seller shall be segregated from other documents and securities in its possession and shall be identified as being subject to this Agreement. Segregation may be accomplished by appropriate identification on the books and records of the holder, including a financial or securities intermediary or a clearing corporation. Each Seller shall xxxx its master data processing records to indicate which of the Mortgage Loans constitute Purchased Mortgage Loans. The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents will be held by the Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, and that certain other documents relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans will be held by the Servicer in accordance with Sellers’ practices and procedures, and that none of such documents shall be deemed “in the possession of Seller” for purposes of this Paragraph 8. All of the applicable Seller’s interest in the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans shall pass to Buyer on the related Purchase Date and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise selling, transferring, pledging or hypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans, but no such transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer the Purchased Mortgage Loans to the applicable Seller pursuant to Paragraph 3 or 4 hereof.

9.	Substitution

Each Seller may substitute other Mortgage Loans for Purchased Mortgage Loans transferred by it hereunder. Each such substitution shall be deemed a Repurchase of the

Purchased Mortgage Loans to be transferred to such Seller in connection with such substitution and subject to satisfaction of the Repurchase Conditions. Each such substitution shall be made by transfer to Buyer of such other Mortgage Loans and transfer to such Seller of such Purchased Mortgage Loans. After substitution, the substituted Mortgage Loans shall be deemed to be Purchased Mortgage Loans.

10.

Representations and Warranties

On the date hereof, each Seller makes each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Letter Agreement and on the Purchase Date for any Transaction, each Seller shall be deemed to repeat all of the representations and warranties made by it in the Letter Agreement.

11.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing then, Buyer may, at its option by written notice to the Sellers, (i) declare the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder, if it has not already occurred, to be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled), (ii) replace the Servicer in accordance with the Letter Agreement and (iii) direct or cause the Servicer or Sellers to direct, all Mortgagors to remit all Collections to an account specified by Buyer.

(c) If Buyer exercises the option referred to in subparagraph (b)(i) of this Paragraph 11, (i) the Sellers’ joint and several obligations hereunder to repurchase all Purchased Mortgage Loans in such Transactions at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subparagraph (b)(i) of this Paragraph, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Collections paid or collected after such exercise shall be payable to and retained by Buyer and shall be applied to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price, Price Differential and any other amounts owing by Sellers hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, (iii) Sellers shall, if directed by Buyer in writing, immediately deliver or cause the Custodian or the Servicer to deliver to Buyer any documents then in any Seller’s, Servicer’s or the Custodian’s possession relating to Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions, including all Loan Documents and Mortgage Notes (if and to the extent not repurchased pursuant to (i) above) and (iv) Buyer may, by notice to Sellers, declare the Termination Date to have occurred.

(d) If Buyer exercises the option referred to in subparagraph (b)(i) of this Paragraph 11, then, Buyer may, without prior notice to Sellers, (i) immediately sell on a servicing released or servicing retained basis as Buyer deems desirable, in a recognized market at such price or prices as Buyer may in its sole commercially reasonable discretion deem satisfactory, any or all Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions and apply the

proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices, Price Differential and any other amounts owing by Sellers hereunder or under any other Transaction Document or (ii) in its sole commercially reasonable discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, to give Sellers credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing bid quotation from such a source, against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Sellers hereunder. The proceeds of any such disposition 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 to all Breakage Costs, costs of cover and/or related hedging transactions; third, to the aggregate and accrued Price Differential owed hereunder, fourth to the remaining aggregate Repurchase Prices owed hereunder and fifth, to any other accrued and unpaid obligations of Sellers hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, and any remaining funds shall be promptly returned to Sellers.

(e) The parties acknowledge and agree that (1) the Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to any Transaction hereunder are instruments traded in a recognized market, (2) in the absence of a generally recognized source for prices or bid or offer quotations for any Purchased Mortgage Loans, Buyer may establish the source therefor in its sole commercially reasonable discretion and (3) all prices, bids and offers shall be determined together with accrued interest (except to the extent contrary to market practice with respect to the relevant Purchased Mortgage Loans). The parties further recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loans may not be liquid at such time. In view of the nature of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or the underlying Purchased Mortgage Loans does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely as a result of there not being a public sale. Accordingly, Buyer may elect the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Mortgage Loan and nothing contained herein shall obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Mortgage Loan on the occurrence of an Event of Default or to liquidate all Purchased Mortgage Loans in the same manner or on the same Business Day and no such exercise of any right or remedy shall constitute a waiver of any other right or remedy of Buyer.

(f) In addition to the foregoing, the Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable to Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions determined in good faith) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction.

(g) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable to Buyer for interest on any amounts owing by the Sellers hereunder, from the date any Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by or on behalf of such Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Buyer’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by the Sellers to Buyer under this Paragraph 11 shall be at a rate equal to the greater of the Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction and the Default Rate.

(h) If an Event of Default occurs, Buyer shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement entered into in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement or applicable law.

(i) The exercise by Buyer of remedies and the application of all of the provisions of this Paragraph 11 after the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be conducted in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

12.

Servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans

(a) The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that, notwithstanding the purchase and sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby, Sellers shall cause the Purchased Mortgage Loans to be serviced by the Servicer in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices for the benefit of each Seller and its assigns; provided, however, that the obligation of each Seller to cause the servicing of any Purchased Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Buyer as aforesaid shall cease upon the payment to Buyer of the Repurchase Price therefor.

(b) Sellers shall cause the Purchased Mortgage Loans to be serviced and administered and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to cause the Servicer to do any and all things in connection with such servicing which Sellers may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement and Paragraph 13 of the Letter Agreement, and may, subject to the other terms hereof, retain all principal prepayments and other Collections received by Sellers with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms hereof. Sellers, in performing the aforementioned duties, shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and shall cause the Servicer to exercise the same care it customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering construction mortgage loans for its own account, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

(c) Buyer may, in its sole discretion if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) direct the Custodian to deliver all Loan Documents to Buyer or Buyer’s designee and (ii) terminate the Servicer as servicer with respect to any Purchased Assets, in each case at the cost and expense of Sellers.

13.

Single Agreement

Buyer and each Seller 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, Buyer and each Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations by any Seller shall constitute a default in respect of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of Buyer (together with the Purchasers), on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall be entitled to set off claims and apply property held by them in respect of any Transaction against obligations owing to them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder (including, with respect to Buyer’s such right, to set off or net claims against the property of any Seller regardless of which Seller’s obligations are outstanding) and (iii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by Buyer or any Purchaser, on the one hand, and any Seller, on the other hand, 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 Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted (including, with respect to Buyer’s such right, to set off or net claims against the property of any Seller regardless of which Seller’s obligations are outstanding).

14.

24.

Intent

(a) The parties hereto intend and acknowledge that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code (except insofar as the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) The parties hereto understand that their right to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or to liquidate Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof, is a contractual right to accelerate, terminate or liquidate this Agreement or such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of the Bankruptcy Code.

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

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

(e) It is understood and agreed that this Agreement constitutes a “master netting agreement “ as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, and that any party’s right to cause the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of, or to offset net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with, this Agreement or any Transaction is a contractual right to cause the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of, or to offset net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with, this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any Transaction as described in Section 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(f) It is understood and agreed that any cash, securities or other property held by, pledged to, under the control of, or due from Buyer to any Seller pursuant to this Agreement or the Letter Agreement (including, without limitation, proceeds from the liquidation of Purchased Mortgage Loans in connection with the exercise of Buyer’s remedies hereunder upon an Event of Default) and any other transfers of cash or other property to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in each case when so transferred, applied, setoff or paid, shall constitute “settlement payments” (as defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(8)) or “margin payments” (as defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 101(38)).

25.

Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties hereto acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

26.

Contribution with Respect to Seller Obligations.

(a) To the extent that any Seller shall make a payment under this Agreement, the Letter Agreement or any other Transaction Document (a “Seller Payment”) which, taking into account all other Seller Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Seller, exceeds the amount which otherwise would have been paid by or attributable to such Seller if each Seller had paid the aggregate obligations of the Sellers hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents (collectively, the “Seller Obligations”) satisfied by such Seller Payment in the same proportion as such Seller’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Seller Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of

the Sellers as determined immediately prior to the making of such Seller Payment, then, following payment in full in cash of the Seller Payment and the Seller Obligations, and the termination or expiration of all Commitments under the Letter Agreement, such Seller shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Seller for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Seller Payment.

(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Seller shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Seller under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(c) This Paragraph 26 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Sellers, and nothing set forth in this Paragraph 26 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Sellers, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Seller or Sellers to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. The rights of the indemnifying Sellers against other Sellers under this Paragraph 26 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Seller Obligations in cash and the termination or expiry of the Commitments under the Letter Agreement.

(“ABN AMRO”). The parties acknowledge that ABN AMRO is entering into the Agreement as Buyer solely in its capacity as Agent for the Purchasers, who will be acting as principals thereunder, and this Annex I therefore sets forth certain terms and conditions governing all Transactions. 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 represents, which representation shall continue during the term of any Transaction that each Purchaser has duly authorized Agent to execute and deliver the Agreement and enter into Transactions on its behalf.

2.	Identification of Purchasers.

The Purchasers for whom Agent is acting as Buyer under the Agreement may change from time to time as set forth in the Letter Agreement. Each Seller acknowledges that Agent shall not have any obligation to provide it with confidential information regarding the financial status of the Purchasers.

3.	Multiple Principals.

In the event that Agent at any time is acting for more than one Purchaser in respect of Transactions under the Agreement, Agent and each Seller hereby agrees to aggregate such Transactions as if they were transactions by a single Purchaser, except to the extent that the Letter Agreement expressly requires otherwise. The parties agree that (i) the margin maintenance obligations of each Seller under Paragraph 4(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 Buyer; and (ii) Buyer’s remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be determined as if all Purchasers were a single Buyer.

4.	Interpretation of Terms.

All references to “Buyer” in the Agreement shall, subject to the provisions of this Annex I, be construed to reflect that (i) each Purchaser 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) the Purchasers have designated Agent as their sole agent for performance of Buyer’s obligations to Sellers, and for receipt of performance by each Seller of its obligations to Buyer, in connection with any Transaction or Transactions under the Agreement (including, among other things, as Agent for each Purchaser in connection with transfers of securities, cash or other property and (except as otherwise provided in the Letter

Agreement) as agent for giving and receiving all notices under the Agreement). Both Agent and the Purchasers shall be deemed “parties” to the Agreement and all references to a “party” or “either party” in the Agreement shall be deemed revised accordingly.
