In furtherance of the foregoing, PHH shall, at its sole cost and expense, make available, or cause to be made available, during normal business hours and reasonable advance notice, to MLCC or any person designated by MLCC, resources, including, but not limited to, access to employees, sufficient to respond adequately to any issue or concern raised by such federal or state authorities.

Such account shall be a custodial account held by PHH for the benefit of MLCC. PHH shall not request MLCC to fund a Mortgage Loan or construction draw for a Construction Loan more than one (1) Business Day prior to the date PHH expects to disburse the proceeds of such Funding Amount.

Section 16. Mortgage Loan Representations, Warranties and Covenants of PHH. Except as otherwise provided in Section 15(b), PHH represents, warrants and covenants to MLCC, with respect to each Mortgage Loan processed or closed by PHH under the terms of this Origination Agreement, as of the date of the Mortgage Loan’s closing, that: (a) Each Mortgage Loan underwritten and approved by PHH for closing meets MLCC Underwriting Guidelines and Mortgage Loan Pricing applicable to that Mortgage Loan Type in all material respects. (b) The procedures used by PHH to receive and process applications and apply the MLCC Underwriting Guidelines, as applicable, to such applications and close and fund Mortgage Loans comply in all material respects with all Applicable Requirements, including but not limited to the Mortgage Lending Laws, and the applicable rules and regulations under all such laws. Section 17. Representations. Warranties and Covenants of PHH for Mortgage Loans. PHH hereby represents and warrants to MLCC, as to each Mortgage Loan processed by PHH under this Agreement (including those loans for which no closing occurs, to the extent applicable), and as of each respective closing date or such other date as may be specified below, that: (a) With respect to those Mortgage Loans for which there is a requirement to deposit funds into an escrow account for payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums and similar items as they become due, there are no delinquent taxes, ground rents, water charges, sewer rents, assessments or other outstanding charges which constitute a lien on the related Mortgaged Property. No escrow deposits or escrow payments or other charges or payments due have been capitalized under the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note; (b) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments contained in the Mortgage File, approved, if necessary, by any insurer under any primary insurance policy and recorded in all places necessary to maintain the first priority of the lien; (c) All buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are required to be insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such

other hazards as are customarily included in extended coverage in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, pursuant to standard hazard insurance policies in an amount which is equal to the lesser of (A) the replacement cost of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (B) the principal balance owing on such Mortgage Loan. To the best knowledge of PHH, all such standard hazard policies are in effect. On the date of origination, such standard hazard policies contained a standard mortgagee clause naming MLCC or the originator of the Mortgage Loan and their respective successors in interest as mortgagee and, to the best knowledge of PHH, such clause is still in effect and, to the best of PHH’s knowledge, all premiums due thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1994, as amended, such Mortgaged Property is covered by flood insurance in the amount required under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1994. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor; (d) At the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan and thereafter, all Applicable Requirements have been complied with in all material respects, including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws required to be complied with by the originator of the Mortgage Loan and applicable to the Mortgage Loan; (e) Ownership of the Mortgaged Property is held in fee simple or a leasehold estate. With respect to Mortgage Loans that are secured by a leasehold estate, (i) the lease is valid, in full force and effect, and conforms to all of FNMA’s requirements for leasehold estates; (ii) all rents and other payments due under the lease have been paid; (iii) the lessee is not in default under any provision of the lease; (iv) the term of the lease exceeds the maturity date of the related Mortgage Loan by at least five (5) years; and (v) the terms of the lease provide a Mortgagee with an opportunity to cure any defaults. Except as permitted by the fourth sentence of this paragraph, the Mortgage is a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems affixed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing securing the Mortgage Note’s original principal balance. The Mortgage and the Mortgage Note do not contain any evidence on their face of any security interest or other interest or right thereto. Such lien is free and clear of all adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having priority over the first lien of the Mortgage 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 which are acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally, or which are specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and either (A) which are referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan, or (B) which do not in the aggregate adversely affect the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property as set forth in such appraisal, and (3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not in the aggregate

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 Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the property described therein. With respect to each Cooperative Loan, the security instruments create a valid, enforceable and subsisting first priority security interest in the Cooperative Apartment securing the related Mortgage Note subject to only to (a) the lien of the related cooperative for unpaid assessments representing the Mortgagor’s pro rata share of payments for a blanket mortgage, if any, current and future real property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to which like collateral is commonly subject. and (b) other matters to which the collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided; provided, however, that the related proprietary lease for the Cooperative Apartment may be subordinated or otherwise subject to the lien of a Mortgage on the cooperative building; (f) The Mortgage Note is not subject to a third-party’s security interest or other rights or interest therein; (g) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors. All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties. An obligor of the debt evidenced by the Mortgage Note is a natural person; (h) Each Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy on other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, issued by a title insurer acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring MLCC, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan; (i) To the best of PHH’s knowledge, there are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and, to the best of PHH’s knowledge, no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such lien) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage; (j) To the best of PHH’s knowledge, all improvements subject to the Mortgage, lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly within the project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those which are insured against by the title insurance policy referred to above and all improvements on the property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision laws and ordinances and building laws and ordinances;

(k) Each Mortgage Loan was originated by PHH on behalf of MLCC. Each Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with the MLCC Underwriting Guidelines as in effect at the time of origination. The Mortgage contains the usual and customary provision of PHH at the time of origination for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan if the related Mortgaged Property is sold or encumbered without the prior consent of the mortgagee thereunder; (l) The Mortgaged Property at origination was and, to the best of PHH’s knowledge, currently is free of material damage and waste and at origination there was, and to the best of PHH’s knowledge there currently is, no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation thereof; (m) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (1) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale or judicial foreclosure, and (2) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. PHH has no knowledge of any homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage; (n) If the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified if required under applicable law to act as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale or attempted sale after default by the Mortgagor; (o) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, there is an appraisal on a FNMA-approved form (or a narrative residential appraisal) of the related Mortgaged Property that conforms to the applicable requirements of the Financial Institutions Reform Recovery and Enforcement Act and that was signed prior to the approval of such Mortgage Loan application by a qualified appraiser, appointed by PHH as the originator of such Mortgage Loan, and the appraiser has no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of such Mortgage Loan; (p) The Mortgaged Property is a single-family (one- to four-unit) dwelling residence erected thereon, or an individual condominium unit in a condominium, or a Co-operative Apartment or an individual unit in a planned unit development or in a de minimis planned unit development as defined by FNMA. No such property is commercial property, is a mobile home or a manufactured dwelling which is not permanently attached to the land; (q) Except as set forth on the Loan Purchase Schedule no Mortgage loan provides for negative amortization; (r) No Mortgage Loan had an original term in excess of thirty (30) years;

(s) PHH has in full force and effect an errors and omissions policy or policies and a blanket bond satisfactory to FNMA and FHLMC. MLCC shall have the right to obtain a copy of such policies or blanket bond at any time and be named as an additional insured if MLCC deems appropriate and necessary; and (t) If a Mortgage Loan originated pursuant to this Agreement is subsequently purchased by PHH, PHH shall not be deemed to have made any of the representations contained in this Section 17 with respect to such Mortgage Loan. The representations and warranties set forth above shall survive the transfer of the Mortgage Loans and the delivery of the Mortgage Files as to between MLCC and PHH, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment or the examination of any Mortgage File. Upon discovery by either PHH or MLCC of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the interests of MLCC in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other. PHH shall have a period of ninety (90) days from its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such breach within which to correct or cure such breach. If any such breach cannot be corrected or cured within such ninety-day period, PHH shall, at MLCC’s option, promptly purchase any such Mortgage Loan from MLCC for an amount equal to the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan on the date of purchase, plus any accrued and unpaid interest and applicable fees which shall have been collected by PHH from a Customer as of the date of repurchase. Section 18. Mortgage Loan Representations and Warranties of MLCC. MLCC, on behalf of itself and MLCC Affiliates, represents and warrants to PHH, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, that: (a) To the best of MLCC’s knowledge, information and belief, all information provided by MLCC to PHH pursuant to this Agreement is true and accurate, in all material respects.

Section 20A. Mutual Representations. Each Party hereby represents and warrants to the other Party as follows: (a) Kickbacks. No employee, agent or representative of the other Party has been offered, shall be offered, has received, or shall receive, directly or indirectly, from such Party, any gratuities, merchandise, cash, services benefit, fee, commission, dividend, gift, or other inducements or consideration of any kind in connection with this Agreement.

Upon reasonable request therefor, the Mortgage Loan documents will be readily available at all times after the Effective Date for use and examination by MLCC or its authorized agents (including outside accountants) or any regulatory authority for any reason whatsoever, including, with limitation, use and examination in connection with complying with any federal, state or local law or regulation or in the performance of internal auditing. PHH may perform its obligations under this subsection (b) through an agent selected by PHH; the use of an agent in this manner, however, shall not relieve PHH from responsibility for any of said obligations. (c) PHH shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain all records and Mortgage Loan documents in accordance with all Applicable Requirements, and such reasonable additional requirements as MLCC may provide to PHH.

[ * * *]

For the avoidance of doubt, if either a PHH Performance Failure or an MLCC Performance Failure shall have occurred, there shall be no extension of this Agreement, unless, at least six months prior to the Initial Termination Date, either MLCC or PHH shall have sent a written notice to the other party stating that notwithstanding the PHH Performance Failure or the MLCC Performance Failure, as the case may be, such party is willing to extend this Agreement for the Extension Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (A) a Party shall materially breach any of its representations, warranties or covenants or shall materially default in the performance of any of its duties or obligations hereunder, and such breach or default shall not be substantially cured within sixty (60) days after written notice specifying the breach or default has been given by the non-breaching or non-defaulting Party, such non-breaching or non-defaulting Party may, by giving written notice thereof to the breaching or defaulting Party, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; (B) an insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have been commenced, or a decree or order of an appropriate court, agency or supervisory authority for the appointment of a conservator, receiver or liquidator shall have been entered against the other Party (the “Bankrupt Party”), then the other Party may, by giving written notice thereof to the Bankrupt Party, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; (C) PHH’s good standing with HUD or both Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx Mac shall have been revoked for cause (it being understood that PHH may choose to cease doing business with one but not both of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac) and PHH fails to have such good standing reinstated within thirty (30) days, then MLCC may, by giving notice thereof to PHH, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; or (D) a PHH Competitor Change of Control shall have occurred, then at any time after MLCC shall have received notice of such PHH Competitor Change of Control, MLCC may, by giving written notice thereof to PHH, terminate this Agreement as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; or (E) a PHH Change of Control (other than a PHH Competitor Change of Control) shall have occurred, then at any time within 30 days after the two year anniversary of such PHH Change of Control, MLCC may, by giving written notice thereof to PHH, terminate this Agreement as of a future date specified in such notice of termination; or (F) PHH shall have materially breached any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in the Trademark Use Agreement and such breach shall not have been cured within the time frame prescribed therein, then MLCC may, by giving written notice thereof to PHH, terminate this Agreement for cause as of a future date specified in such notice of termination. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Parties made herein and the respective obligations of each Party hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless the other Party shall survive the termination of the Origination Agreement. Termination of the Origination Agreement in accordance with these provisions shall have no effect on Mortgage Loan applications in process at the time of such termination, which applications shall be processed to closing or denial. Section 22A. Termination Assistance. (a) Termination Assistance Services. Upon expiration or termination of all or part of the MLCC Services for any reason, PHH shall for a period of one (1) year (the “Termination Assistance Period”), upon MLCC’s request and at MLCC’s expense, continue to provide the MLCC Services that were provided prior thereto (“Termination Assistance Services”). In providing Termination Assistance Services, PHH shall provide such reasonable cooperation and technical assistance to MLCC, or to a third-party service

provider designated by MLCC, as required to facilitate the transfer of the affected MLCC Services to MLCC or such third-party service provider. The rights of MLCC under this Section shall be without prejudice to the Parties’ rights to pursue legal remedies for breach of this Agreement, either for breaches prior to termination or during the period this Agreement is continued in force post-termination. Termination Assistance Services shall be provided for the same fees as prior to termination, and PHH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the MLCC Services at the same service levels as prior to termination. MLCC hereby agrees to continue to provide the services or meet its obligations contemplated to be provided by it under the Agreement during the Termination Assistance Period in order to assist PHH in complying with this Section 22A(a). (b) Development of Transition Plan. If and to the extent requested by MLCC, whether prior to, upon, or following any termination of this Agreement, PHH shall reasonably assist MLCC in developing a plan which shall specify the tasks to be performed by the Parties in connection with the Termination Assistance Services and the schedule for the performance of such tasks. The transition plan shall include descriptions of the MLCC Services, service levels, fees, documentation and access requirements that will promote an orderly transition of the MLCC Services.

The Parties hereto shall not perform, or be expected to perform, any act hereunder that is, or reasonably believed to be, in violation of any applicable state or federal rule or regulation.

(a) Each party understands that certain information which it has been furnished and will be furnished in connection with this Agreement, including, but not limited to information concerning business procedures or prices, policies or plans of the other party or any of its Affiliates, is confidential and proprietary, and each party agrees that it will maintain the confidentiality of such information and will not disclose it to others or use it except in connection with the proposed transactions contemplated by this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the party furnishing such information. Information which is generally known in the industry concerning a party or among such party’s creditors generally or which has been disclosed to the other party by third parties who have a right to do so shall not be deemed confidential or proprietary information for these purposes. If PHH, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or agent of any of the foregoing is at any time requested or required to disclose any information supplied to it by or on behalf of MLCC in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, PHH agrees to provide MLCC with prompt notice of such request(s) so that MLCC may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive PHH’s compliance with the terms of this Section. If MLCC, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or agent of any of the foregoing is at any time requested or required to disclose any information supplied to it by or on behalf of MLCC in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, MLCC agrees to provide PHH with prompt notice of such request(s) so that PHH may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive MLCC’s compliance with the terms of this Section. Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, if, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, PHH or MLCC is nonetheless, in the opinion of its counsel, compelled to disclose information concerning the other party to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or penalty, PHH or MLCC may disclose such information to such tribunal without liability hereunder. Upon termination of this Agreement, each party agrees to promptly return to the other all confidential materials, and all copies thereof, which have been furnished to it in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. (b) Data, Privacy and Security. (1) The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that: (A) MLCC is the exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the MLCC Data; (B) MLCC Data is and shall remain confidential and proprietary information of MLCC; (C) PHH is the exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the PHH Data; and (D) PHH Data is and shall remain confidential and proprietary information of PHH, subject to the Privacy Requirements. With respect to any MLCC Data provided by MLCC to PHH hereunder, except to the extent expressly permitted hereunder, subject to this Section 29, or by prior written permission of MLCC, PHH shall not prepare any derivative work of the MLCC Data or any portion thereof, or sublicense, transfer, assign, rent, lease or otherwise convey the MLCC Data or any portion thereof, or any right with respect thereto, to any third party. All right, title and interest in all MLCC Data made by or on behalf of PHH, together with all intellectual property rights therein, shall be owned exclusively by MLCC. PHH hereby assigns to MLCC all right, title, and interest in such MLCC Data and the intellectual property rights therein. PHH shall, at request of MLCC,

perform any acts that MLCC may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to evidence or confirm MLCC’s ownership interest in such MLCC Data and the intellectual property rights therein, including but not limited to making further written assignments in a form determined by MLCC. (2) In connection with the performance of the Origination Services hereunder, PHH shall comply with the Privacy Requirements, subject to (i) the mandatory compliance date of such Privacy Requirements and (ii) the applicability of such Privacy Requirements to PHH as the result of PHH’s provision of the Origination Services under this Agreement. The foregoing obligation to comply with the Privacy Requirements may include the following: (A) PHH shall not disclose any Borrower Information to any person or entity, other than to the extent necessary to carry out PHH’s express obligations under the Agreement, and for no other purpose. PHH shall ensure that each person or entity to whom or to which PHH intends to disclose Borrower Information shall, prior to any such disclosure of information, agree to: (i) keep confidential any such Borrower Information and (ii) use or disclose such Borrower Information only to the extent necessary to carry out PHH’s express obligations under this Agreement; (B) PHH shall not use Borrower Information for any purpose, including but not limited to the marketing of products or services to, or the solicitation of business from the Borrowers.

PHH may also use the Borrower Information as expressly permitted by MLCC in writing, to the extent that such express permission is in accordance with the Privacy Requirements; (C) PHH shall assess, manage, and control risks relating to the security and confidentiality of Borrower Information, shall implement the standards relating to such risks in the manner set forth in the FFIEC Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Borrower Information set forth in 12 CFR Parts 30, 208, et al, and shall maintain at all times an Information Security Program; (D) without limiting the scope of the above, PHH shall use at least the same physical and other security measures to protect all Borrower Information in PHH’s possession or control, as PHH uses for its own confidential and proprietary information; (E) If MLCC provides an Account Number to PHH to enable the parties to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, PHH shall use such Account Number only for such specific purpose and for no other purpose. To the extent that the obligations under (A) through (E), inclusive, in the immediately preceding sentence are not required by the Privacy Requirements, PHH shall perform same upon MLCC’s request at MLCC’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MLCC acknowledges that PHH shall acquire the “customer” relationship with the Borrower and be entitled to use the Borrower Information when it acquires for its own account the servicing rights pertaining to any Mortgage Loan as to which PHH provides origination services hereunder; provided, however, that PHH shall include in its Privacy Statement that it furnishes to Borrowers a disclosure that it intends to continue to disclose Borrower Information to MLCC and its Affiliates. (b) Without MLCC’s prior written consent, which may be withheld by MLCC in its sole discretion, neither PHH nor any Affiliate shall solicit any Mortgagor, or cause any Mortgagor to be solicited, for subordinate financing of any Mortgage Loan (other than subordinate financing arranged under the Equity Access program and settlement services connected with the Mortgage Loan) or any product or service whatsoever, including, without limitation, any investment or financial services or products, insurance products or services and brokerage account services. PHH (but not any of its Affiliates) may solicit Mortgagors for prepayment of the related Mortgage Loans, but only if (i) PHH has obtained MLCC’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such solicitation is made in compliance with the Applicable Requirements and (iii) upon obtaining any positive responses to

such solicitation, PHH processes and closes the related Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Origination Agreement. Neither MLCC nor any of its Affiliates shall be prohibited from soliciting any Mortgagor or causing any Mortgagor to be solicited for any product or service now offered (or hereafter offered) by MLCC or any Affiliate of MLCC other than for prepayment of any Mortgage Loan. PHH shall not prepare or disseminate, for compensation or otherwise, any mailing lists relating to the Mortgagors, the Mortgage Loans, the Servicing Rights (as such term is defined in the applicable Servicing Agreement): or otherwise, including any lists of Mortgagors, without MLCC’s prior written consent, which may be withheld by MLCC in its sole discretion. The parties hereto nevertheless agree that (i) either PHH, MLCC or their respective Affiliates may from time to time undertake promotions that are directed to either their own general customer base or to the general public at large and that do not target Mortgagors directly, including, without limitation, newspaper, radio and television advertisements and mass mailing or telephone solicitations and that (ii) offers by PHH, MLCC or their respective Affiliates to refinance Mortgage Loans in response to, or as a result of, contact initiated by the related Mortgagors or their representatives shall not constitute solicitation. Section 30. Further Assurances. The Parties agree that each will, from time to time, execute, acknowledge, and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged, and delivered, such amendments and supplements hereto and such further instruments as may be reasonably required or appropriate to further express the intention of the Parties, or to facilitate the performance of this Origination Agreement. Section 31. Contingency Plan. PHH represents and warrants that it has in place a contingency plan that will enable it to (i) perform its loan closing obligations with one (1) Business Day, and (ii) perform all its other obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement in all material respects, at another location within [* * *], in the event its primary location is rendered inoperative as a result of a natural or other disaster or emergency, and once PHH relocates to its backup site, it shall make arrangements to connect MLCC to PHH’s backup EDP and provide continued service as stated in this Agreement, provided that PHH has granted MLCC access to its primary EDP. PHH covenants and agrees to (i) test such contingency plan at least once annually and provide the results of such test to MLCC, and (ii) provide MLCC with copies of its operating procedures in the event that such contingency plan is put into effect. If MLCC determines in its reasonable discretion, that such contingency plan is inadequate, MLCC shall have the right to make reasonable recommendations consistent with those required by its regulators, and PHH shall take commercially reasonable efforts to implement such recommendations. Section 32. Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided by the terms of this Agreement, each Party hereto (each, an “Indemnitor”) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, members and shareholders of each of the foregoing (collectively called the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding) (“Losses”) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitees, whether brought under common law or in equity, or in contract, tort or otherwise, caused by, arising from or connected with (i) any misrepresentation or the breach in any material respect by the Indemnitor of any term, condition, representation,

obligation or warranty of the Indemnitor set forth in this Agreement or in any schedule, exhibit, or certificate furnished by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) the negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitor.

This Origination Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and, except as otherwise limited herein, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Section 40. Benefit of Parties Only. This Origination Agreement is made for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and of their respective successors and permitted assigns.
