The sale of each Loan shall be reflected on E-LOAN's balance sheet and other financial statements as a sale of assets by E-LOAN, and E-LOAN shall not take any action or omit to take any action which would cause the transfer of the Loans to Correspondent to be treated as anything other than a sale to Correspondent of all of E-LOAN's right, title and interest in and to each Loan.

5.9Insurance. Each vehicle securing a Loan is insured against loss under a policy issued by an insurer reasonably acceptable to Correspondent and qualified to do business in the state where the vehicle is located, in a form such that it may be endorsed to Correspondent as loss payee.

6.2Indemnification Procedures. After either party obtains knowledge of any claim, action, suit or proceeding (collectively a "Claim") for which it believes is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, it shall promptly notify the other party of such Claim in writing within ten (10) days after such knowledge. Each party shall cooperate with the other in every reasonable manner (at the Indemnitor's sole expense) to facilitate the defense of any Claim subject to indemnification hereunder. Indemnitee's failure to promptly notify Indemnitor of a Claim shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability under this Section to the extent that Indemnitor is not materially adversely affected by such delay. With respect to each such notice, the Indemnitor shall, at the Indemnitee's option, immediately take all action necessary to minimize any risk or loss to the Indemnitee, including retaining counsel satisfactory to the Indemnitee and take such other actions as are necessary to defend the Indemnitee or to discharge the indemnity obligations under this Section. If the Indemnitor does not timely and adequately conduct such defense, the Indemnitee may, at its option and at Indemnitor's expense, conduct such defense, contest, litigate or settle the Claim using counsel of its own choice without prejudice to its right of indemnification under this Section. The Indemnitor shall pay on demand any liability incurred by the Indemnitee under this Section.

Exhibit B:Purchase Criteria

[*]

Part B-2: Purchase Criteria Provisions and Exception Tolerance Levels

[*].

Part B-3: Express Purchase Criteria ("Fast Lane" Program)

[*]

Part B-4: Fraud Detection and Investigation

The following steps must be taken on "Express" Loans, to mitigate the risk of fraud:

1. Credit Bureau Warnings / Indicators: Additional verification must occur for all applications in which there is either a credit bureau warning or alerts regarding fraud (Safescan, Hawk Alert, Trans Alert, FACS+, etc.). These services will highlight several items that may include:

• Deceased Social Security number. (Date of Birth and Date of Death are frequently noted in with this entry in the bureau)
• Address is a mail receiving service.
• Address is a prison
• Address is a hotel/motel.
• Address is a business.
• High-risk address (this address has been known to have been used in fraudulent activity previously).
• The year the Social Security number was issued.
• Social Security number is an invalid number, non-issued number, or an out-of-range number.

2. Application Data: Compare the information given on the credit application with that on the credit bureau (s) for all approved or conditioned applications. Look for variances in the two sets of information. Some examples of what to look for might be (but not limited to):

• Name
• Current Address
• Social Security number
• Date of Birth
• Employment Data

3. Credit Bureau Tools: Be aware of several social security number tools that the credit bureaus provide that help you identify fraudulent applicants. These tools might include D-TEC by Equifax and TRACE by TransUnion. Whenever you see multiple names in a credit bureau or multiple social security numbers in a credit bureau, using these products will help you identify the frauds by detailing out the information associated with the names and social security numbers. Any applicant that has multiple names and/or multiple social security numbers showing in the credit bureau (s) that cannot be reasonably justified, his/her social security number must be run through one of these products to confirm identity.

4. Duplicate Applications: Watch for duplicate applications in your credit buying system. If you receive a second application from the same customer, compare the data from the original application and credit bureau to the new application and credit bureau, noting the differences for investigation.

5. Duplicate E-Mail Addresses: Watch for duplicate email addresses that may be used to communicate back with the customer. Approved or conditioned credit applications that have the same email address must be fully investigated to ensure that fraud is not being attempted.

6. Consumer Statements: Watch for consumer statements in the credit bureaus indicating the consumers have been a victim of fraud.

• Verify that the applicant is the legitimate consumer and not the perpetrator of fraud.
• Some consumers will place a statement at the end of their credit bureau requesting that any potential creditor call them and verify that they have in fact applied for credit. This must be done in every instance.

7. Dealer Endorsement: At time of funding, always verify the dealer's endorsement on the back of the draft. Ensure that the endorsement matches the selling dealer.

8. Investigation of the above should include:

• Call Directory Assistance and verify the residence number and address or the place of employment and address. (Never use telephone numbers provided on application as source of verification.)
• Call the employer and verify employment. Pay attention to how the telephone is answered, i.e., does it sound like a business or did someone answer "Hello"?
• If applicant is renting, verify residence with the landlord if possible. The landlord can be determined by reviewing the inquiries in the bureau and noting the "---RA----" member codes and then decoding them through the bureau service or by submitting customers address on internet sites that will map the address and reveal nearby businesses including the apartment complex where the applicant indicated he/she lives.
• If insurance information is available, contact the insurance agent and verify coverage. While on the telephone with the agent, attempt to verify applicants home address, employer, social security number, etc.
• If unable to get confirmation of the residence address and/or employment information, condition the deal for that information (i.e., copy of rental agreement, copy of utility xxxx, copy of recent paystub, etc.)

9. Documentation: All fraud investigation and verification must be documented, with a copy of E-Loan records provided to Bank upon request.

[*]

Exhibit E:Purchase Price

Purchase Price Calculation

Purchase Price of the Loans shall equal the Principal Balance less any payments due at the time of sale plus any Compensation owed by Correspondent to E-LOAN. Calculation and payment of Compensation shall be according to this Exhibit E as shown below.

Compensation

(a)As compensation for its performance of the Services on behalf of Correspondent, E-LOAN will receive a fee ("Origination Fee") for each Loan booked by Correspondent as a result of E-LOAN's Services hereunder. Said Origination Fee shall be an amount equal to the excess of the Loan Rate over the Buy Rate and shall be divided into a portion for the account of E-LOAN, subject to the Correspondent's right of offset set forth in the Strategic Alliance Agreement and a portion for the Correspondent, which Correspondent may use as it deems fit in its sole discretion. For the purposes of this Section, the "Buy Rate" for any Loan shall be [*]. E-LOAN's portion of the Origination Fee for any Loan will be calculated and paid to E-LOAN by Correspondent by the fifteenth (15th) day of the month following the month in which such Loan is booked; subject, however, to Correspondent's right to net out chargebacks which have not been cured, as set forth in paragraph (e) below. E-LOAN shall be required to reimburse Correspondent for E-LOAN's portion of any Origination Fee in the event that the Loan either prepays or is in default during the first three (3) months following the closing of the Loan.

(b)The Origination Fee shall be shared between the Correspondent and E-LOAN with [*]% to E-LOAN and [*]% to the Correspondent.

(c)E-LOAN will reimburse Correspondent for E-LOAN's portion of the Origination Fee paid on a Loan if the Loan is paid in full or is in default prior to the borrower making the first three (3) payments on the Loan.

(d)E-LOAN compensation for originating loans for Correspondent will be paid monthly. The amount paid will be the net of: (1) Origination Fees earned for the previous month, (2) less rebates for payoffs / defaults by the 3rd payment, (3) less other amounts due Correspondent under the terms of this Agreement.

(e)E-LOAN acknowledges and agrees that Correspondent may, at its option, net out the amount of any Loss, as defined in Article VIII of the Strategic Alliance Agreement, or any Repurchases according to section 5.3 of this Agreement from any Origination Fee that Correspondent may owe to E-LOAN.
