-15-

exceeds the related Committed Amount for Buyer or (ii) if the Transaction is requested on or after the Amortization Date. During the term of this Agreement, Sellers may request Transactions, Sellers may pay the Repurchase Price in whole or in part at any time during such period without penalty, and additional Transactions may be entered into in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Buyer’s obligation to enter into Transactions pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall terminate on the Termination Date. All Transactions shall be effected by Buyers simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Buyer shall be responsible for any default by any other Buyer in such other Buyer’s obligation to enter into a Transaction nor shall any Pro Rata Share of any Buyer be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Buyer in such other Buyer’s obligation to enter into a Transaction hereunder, except to the extent agreed to by the non-Defaulting Buyer pursuant to Section 2.02(e).

Section 2.02 Procedure for Entering into Transactions.

(a) Each Seller may enter into Transactions with Buyers under this Agreement on any Purchase Date; provided, that the applicable Seller shall have given Administrative Agent and Buyers irrevocable notice (each, a “Transaction Notice”), which notice (i) shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A, (ii) shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of Seller and be received by Administrative Agent and Buyers prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) one (1) Business Day prior to the related Purchase Date on a Purchase Date that shall not occur more than once per calendar week without consent of Administrative Agent, and (iii) shall specify: (A) the Maximum VFN Principal Balance of the Note, (B) with respect to the first Purchase Date, the Initial Note Balance of the Note, and, with respect to any other Purchase Date, the Additional Balance (if any), (C) after taking into account the Additional Balance (if any), the outstanding VFN Principal Balance of the Note (D) the Dollar amount of the requested Purchase Price; (E) the requested Purchase Date; (F) the Repurchase Date; (G) the Pricing Rate or Repurchase Price applicable to the Transaction; and (H) any additional terms or conditions of the Transaction not inconsistent with this Agreement. Each Transaction Notice on any Purchase Date shall be in an amount equal to at least $500,000.

(b) If a Seller shall deliver a Transaction Notice to the Buyers that satisfies the requirements of Section 2.02(a) and all applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article V have been satisfied or waived by each Buyer on or prior to the Purchase Date, then subject to the foregoing, on the Purchase Date, each Buyer shall remit its Pro Rata Share of the requested Purchase Price in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds to Administrative Agent at the account specified in Schedule 3 (or such other account designated in writing by Administrative Agent) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date specified in the Transaction Notice as the Purchase Date, and upon satisfaction or waiver of all applicable conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall deposit such proceeds into the account of the applicable Parent specified in Schedule 5 of the Base Indenture (or such other account designated by Sellers in the Transaction Notice) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Purchase Date.

(c) The failure of any Buyer to advance the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Transaction required to be advanced hereunder shall not relieve any other Buyer of its obligation to advance the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any such Transaction required to be advanced hereunder.

-16-

(d) If a Buyer does not intend to fund its Pro Rata Share of the requested Purchase Price, such Buyer shall, within one (1) Business Day of the related Purchase Date, notify Administrative Agent, the other Buyers and Sellers of its intent not to fund together with a description of the reason for not remitting its Pro Rata Share of the requested Purchase Price.

(e) The liabilities and obligations of each Buyer hereunder shall be several and not joint, and neither Administrative Agent nor any Buyer shall be responsible for the performance by any other Buyer of its obligations hereunder. Each Buyer shall be liable to Sellers only for the amount of its respective Committed Amount. If a Buyer does not perform its obligations hereunder with respect to its Committed Amount (such Buyer a “Defaulting Buyer”), all or any part of such Defaulting Buyer’s participation in any Transaction (“Defaulting Buyer Deficiency”) shall be reallocated among the non Defaulting Buyers in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, but only to the extent that (x) such non Defaulting Buyer has consented to such reallocation, (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Committed Amount held by any non Defaulting Buyer to exceed such non Defaulting Buyer’s Committed Amount and (z) to the extent required in writing by Administrative Agent, Sellers shall confirm that the conditions set forth in this Section 2.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation.

(f) To the extent that the Defaulting Buyer thereafter funds such Defaulting Buyer Deficiency with Price Differential thereon, if applicable, then upon the agreement between Sellers and the Administrative Agent, such Buyer shall no longer be a Defaulting Buyer. If Sellers and Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Buyer is no longer a Defaulting Buyer, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Buyer will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Purchase Price of the other Buyers or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Purchase Prices to be held on a pro rata basis by the Buyers in accordance with their Committed Amount, whereupon such Buyer will cease to be a Defaulting Buyer; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Sellers while that Buyer was a Defaulting Buyer; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Buyer to Buyer will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Buyer’s having been a Defaulting Buyer.

(g) Upon entering into each Transaction hereunder, the Asset Schedule shall be automatically updated and replaced with the Asset Schedule attached to the related Transaction Notice.

(d) To the extent an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, the Sellers shall ensure that the aggregate amount of payments of the Purchase Price by the Sellers over the term of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Margin Calls, that are paid from Collections on the Participation Certificates shall not exceed 10% of the Purchase Price as of the date of any such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Base Indenture, no Event of Default shall arise in connection with any breach by a Seller of the foregoing sentence unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided written notice of such breach to each Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing stated in this Section 2.03(d), (i) limits the Sellers’ obligations to pay Repurchase Price, any Margin Calls or other obligations as set forth in this Agreement from funds other than Collections on the Participation Certificates or (ii)(a) obligates the Administrative Agent to monitor Sellers’ adherence to the above limitation, (b) limits the obligation of the Sellers to deposit all collections, payments and proceeds in respect of the Note into the Administrative Agent Account as required by Section 2.06 or (c) restricts or limits the right of the Administrative Agent to apply funds in the Administrative Agent Account in accordance with Section 2.07, to the extents amounts due and payable are not otherwise paid directly by the Sellers with funds that do not constitute Collections.

Section 2.04 Price Differential. On each Price Differential Payment Date, each of the Sellers hereby promises to pay to Administrative Agent (on behalf of Buyers) all accrued and unpaid Price Differential on the Transactions, as invoiced by Administrative Agent to Sellers three (3) Business Days prior to the related Price Differential Payment Date (the “Price Differential Statement Date”); provided, that on each Price Differential Payment Date prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, the estimated Price Differential owed hereunder shall be subject to a true-up of the amount determined by Administrative Agent and agreed by Sellers one (1) Business Day prior to the related Price Differential Payment Date. If Administrative Agent fails to deliver such invoice on the Price Differential Statement Date, on such Price Differential Payment Date Sellers shall pay the amount which Sellers calculate as the Price Differential due and upon delivery of the invoice, Sellers shall remit to Administrative Agent any shortfall, or Administrative Agent shall refund to Sellers any excess, in the Price Differential paid. The Price Differential shall accrue each day on the Purchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate. The Price Differential shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in each Price Differential Period and a 360-day year.

Section 2.05 Margin Maintenance.

(a) If at any time the aggregate outstanding amount of the Purchase Price of the Note is greater than the Margin Market Value or the Maximum Purchase Price for the related Transaction (such excess, a “Margin Deficit”), then Administrative Agent shall, unless waived by all Buyers, by notice to Sellers require Sellers to transfer to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Buyers, cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Margin Call”).

-18-

(b) Notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.05(a) may be given by any written or electronic means.

The failure of Administrative Agent, on any one or more occasions, to exercise the rights of Buyers hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Administrative Agent to do so at a later date. Seller Parties, Administrative Agent and each of the Buyers each agree that a failure or delay by Administrative Agent to exercise the rights of Buyers hereunder shall not limit or waive Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for the Sellers.

(c) In the event that a Margin Deficit exists, Administrative Agent may retain any funds received by it to which the Sellers would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) may be held by Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Buyers, against the related Margin Deficit or (ii) may be applied by Administrative Agent against the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent retains the right, in its sole discretion (unless otherwise subject to a right of waiver by all Buyers under this Section 2.05), to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05.

Section 2.06 Payment Procedure. The Sellers absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably, shall make, or cause to be made, all payments required to be made by Sellers hereunder.

(b) In addition, the Sellers hereby agree to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added taxes, or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Program Agreement (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

The indemnity by the Sellers provided for in this Section 2.11 shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by any Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.11(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which Administrative Agent or such Buyer makes written demand therefor.

Without limiting, and in addition to, the provisions of Section 11.02, each of the Sellers, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Buyer and to hold Administrative Agent and each Buyer harmless from any loss or expense that Administrative Agent or Buyers may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) a default by any Seller in payment when due of the Repurchase Price or Price Differential or (ii) a default by any Seller in making any prepayment of Repurchase Price after such Seller has given a notice thereof in accordance with Section 2.03.

Section 2.13 Additional Balance and Additional Funding. In the event that any Seller wishes an increase in the VFN Principal Balance, such Seller shall deliver to Administrative Agent and Buyers a copy of the VFN Note Balance Adjustment Request that is delivered under the Indenture. If all the Funding Conditions required pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof and in the Indenture have been satisfied, then upon approval in writing by Administrative Agent of such increase in the VFN Principal Balance (such increase, upon such approval, an “Additional Balance”), (i) the outstanding VFN Principal Balance set forth in the Asset Schedule hereof shall be automatically updated as set forth in the related Transaction Notice in accordance with Section 2.02 and (ii) if requested by Sellers, each Buyer shall thereupon deliver to Administrative Agent in cash its Pro Rata Share of the amount equal to the product of such Additional Balance and the Purchase Price Percentage (the “Additional Funding”).

Section 4.04 Changes in Locations, Name, etc. Each Seller shall not (a) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 3.17 or (b) change its name or corporate structure (or the equivalent) or jurisdiction of organization from the jurisdiction referred to in Section 3.17, unless it shall have given Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to Administrative Agent all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as Administrative Agent shall request and taken all other actions deemed necessary by Administrative Agent to continue its perfected status in the Repurchase Assets with the same or better priority.

Section 4.06 Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (a) all proceeds of Repurchase Assets received by any Seller consisting of cash, checks and other liquid assets readily convertible to cash items shall be held by such Seller in trust for Administrative Agent segregated from other funds of such Seller, and shall forthwith upon receipt by such Seller be turned over to Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Seller (duly endorsed by such Seller to Administrative Agent, if required) and (b) any and all such proceeds received by Administrative Agent (whether from Sellers or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of Administrative Agent, be held by Administrative Agent as collateral security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by Administrative Agent against, the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), such application to be in such order as Administrative Agent shall elect. Any balance of such proceeds remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated shall be paid over to the applicable Seller or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

Section 4.07 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Administrative Agent may exercise (and at the direction of the Required Buyers shall exercise), in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (including Administrative Agent’s rights to a strict foreclosure under Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may seek (and at the direction of the Required Buyers shall seek) the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee, or similar official in respect of the Sellers or any of the Sellers’ property. Administrative Agent without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required under this Agreement or by law referred to below) to or upon the Sellers or any other Person (each and all of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may (and at the direction of the Required Buyers shall) in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Repurchase Assets or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as an entirety at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Administrative Agent or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Administrative Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Repurchase Assets so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in the Sellers, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Each Seller further agrees, at Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Repurchase Assets and make them available to Administrative Agent at places which Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at either of the Seller’s premises or elsewhere. Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable (under the

-35-

circumstances) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Repurchase Assets or in any way relating to the Repurchase Assets or the rights of Administrative Agent hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements of Administrative Agent or Buyers, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Administrative Agent may elect (or shall elect at the direction of the Required Buyers), and only after such application and after the payment by Administrative Agent of any other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to the related Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Administrative Agent arising out of the exercise by Administrative Agent of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Repurchase Assets shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition. Each Seller, jointly and severally, shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as contemplated herein) if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Repurchase Assets are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements in amounts reasonable under the circumstances, of any attorneys employed by Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Program Agreements, the remedies set forth in this Section 4.07 concerning any actions with respect to the MSRs arising under or related to any Servicing Contract shall be subject to the Acknowledgment Agreement entered into with Fannie Mae.

Section 4.08 Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Repurchase Assets. Administrative Agent’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Repurchase Assets 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 Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Administrative Agent 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 Repurchase Assets or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Repurchase Assets upon the request of any Seller or otherwise.

Section 4.09 Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Repurchase Assets are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

Section 4.10 Release of Security Interest. Upon the latest to occur of (a) the repayment to Administrative Agent and Buyers of all Obligations hereunder, and (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, Administrative Agent shall release its security interest in any remaining Repurchase Assets hereunder and shall promptly execute and deliver to the related Seller such documents or instruments as such Seller shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

-36-

Section 4.11 Reinstatement. All security interests created by this Article IV shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation of the Sellers is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Administrative Agent or Buyers upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Sellers or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Sellers or any substantial part of their property, or otherwise, all as if such release had not been made.

Section 4.12 Subordination. Neither of the Sellers shall seek in any Act of Insolvency of the Issuer and Co-Issuer to be treated as part of the same class of creditors as Administrative Agent and Buyers and shall not oppose any pleading or motion by Administrative Agent and Buyers advocating that Administrative Agent and Buyers and such Seller should be treated as separate classes of creditors. Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase Assets are and shall continue to be at all times while the obligations are outstanding junior and subordinate to the rights of Administrative Agent and Buyers under this Agreement.

In the event of any such sale by such Buyer of participating interests to a Participant, such Buyer shall remain a party to the Transaction for all purposes under this Agreement and the Program Agreements and Seller Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Buyer in connection with such Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements.

Any assignment or transfer by a Buyer of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.03 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Buyer of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.02.

(b) The Sellers or an agent of the Sellers shall maintain a register (the “Transaction Register”) on which it will record the Transactions entered into hereunder, and each assignment and acceptance and participation. The Transaction Register shall include the names and addresses of Buyers (including all assignees, successors and Participants), and the Purchase

-62-

Price of the Transactions entered into by each Buyer. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect any Seller Party’s obligations in respect of such Transactions.

The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Buyer. Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Buyer and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Buyer” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Seller Parties or any of their Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from Seller Parties for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Buyers.

Section 10.05 Buyer’s Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.

(a) Each Buyer represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Seller Parties in connection with the Transactions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Seller Parties. Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Buyers or to provide any Buyer with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Transactions or at any time or times thereafter, and Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to any Buyer.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed to by Buyers and Seller Parties, each Buyer, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and entering into Transactions with Seller hereunder shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Program Agreement and each other document required to be approved by Administrative Agent or Buyers, as applicable on the Closing Date or such other funding date. Each Buyer acknowledges that by agreeing to remit its Pro Rata Share of the Purchase Price on any Purchase Date, such Buyer agrees that all conditions precedent to entering into such Transaction have been met on such Purchase Date.

Section 10.06 Right to Indemnity.

(a) Each Buyer, in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, severally, but not jointly, shall, and hereby agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent, any Affiliate of Administrative Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (each, an “Indemnitee Agent Party”), and hold such Indemnitee Agent Party harmless to the extent that such Indemnitee Agent Party shall not have been reimbursed by any Seller Party, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses incurred by any of them (except to the extent that it has resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee Agent Party) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee Agent Party in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Program Agreements or otherwise in its capacity as an Indemnitee Agent Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Program Agreements, including amounts

-65-

paid in settlement, court costs and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection with any of the foregoing. If any indemnity furnished to any Indemnitee Agent Party for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Indemnitee Agent Party, be insufficient or become impaired, such Indemnitee Agent Party may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished.

(b) Promptly after receipt by the Indemnitee Agent Party of notice of the commencement of any action regarding which a claim in respect thereof is to be made against Buyers, the Indemnitee Agent Party shall notify Buyers in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify will not relieve Buyers from any liability which they may have under this Agreement or from any other liability which they may have, except to the extent that they have been prejudiced in any material respect by the failure by the Indemnitee Agent Party to provide prompt notice. Upon receipt of notice by Buyers, Buyers will be entitled to participate in the related action, and they may elect by written notice delivered to the Indemnitee Agent Party to assume the defense thereof. Upon receipt of notice by the Indemnitee Agent Party of Buyers’ election to assume the defense of such action, Buyers shall not be liable to the Indemnitee Agent Party for legal expenses incurred by such party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) Buyers shall not have employed counsel to represent the Indemnitee Agent Party within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of commencement of the action, (ii) Buyers have authorized in writing the employment of separate counsel for the Indemnitee Agent Party, or (iii) the Indemnitee Agent Party has previously engaged counsel and reasonable legal expenses are necessary (a) to transfer the file to Buyers’ designated counsel, or (b) to pursue immediate legal action necessary to preserve the legal rights or defenses of the Indemnitee Agent Party as against a third party claimant, and such legal action must occur prior to said transfer. Buyers shall not settle any suit or claim without the Indemnitee Agent Party’s written consent unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money by parties other than the Indemnitee Agent Party and includes unconditional release of the Indemnitee Agent Party from all liability on all matters that are the subject of such proceeding or claim.

Section 10.07 Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving sixty (60) days’ prior written notice thereof to Buyers.

(b) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor administrative agent, that successor administrative agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor administrative agent all sums and items of Repurchase Assets held under the Program Agreements, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor administrative agent under the Program Agreements, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor administrative agent such amendments

-66-

to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor administrative agent of the security interests created under the Program Agreements, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X and Section 11.02 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties as Administrative Agent hereunder to an Affiliate without written notice to, Buyers; provided, that Seller Parties and Buyers may deem and treat such assigning Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent for all purposes hereof, unless and until such assigning Administrative Agent provides written notice to each Seller and Buyers of such assignment. Upon such assignment such Affiliate shall succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Program Agreements.

Section 10.08 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Program Agreement by or through (i) any one or more of its Affiliates or (ii) any one or more sub agents appointed by Administrative Agent with the prior consent of the Required Buyers. Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees and agents. The exculpatory provisions of this Article X shall apply to any such Affiliate or sub agent and to such other parties as are listed above provided that notwithstanding this Section 10.08, no such delegation relieves Administrative Agent of its duties or obligations under this Agreement.

Section 10.09 Right to Realize on Repurchase Assets. Anything contained in any of the Program Agreements to the contrary notwithstanding, Seller Parties, Administrative Agent and each Buyer hereby agree that (i) no Buyer shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Repurchase Assets, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Buyers in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Program Agreements may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by Administrative Agent on any of the Repurchase Assets pursuant to a public or private sale, Administrative Agent or any Buyer may be the purchaser of any or all of such Repurchase Assets at any such sale and Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of Buyers (but not any Buyer or Buyers in its or their respective individual capacities unless Buyers shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by Administrative Agent at such sale.

-67-

Section 10.10 Erroneous Payments.

(a) Each Buyer hereby agrees that if Administrative Agent notifies such Buyer or any Person who has received funds on behalf of such Buyer (any such Buyer or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Buyer or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, and such Buyer shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the overnight federal funds rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If a Payment Recipient receives any payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise and does not receive a corresponding payment notice or payment advice, such payment, prepayment or repayment shall be presumed to be in error absent written confirmation from Administrative Agent to the contrary.

(b) Each Buyer hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Buyer under any Transaction Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by Administrative Agent to such Buyer from any source, against any amount due to Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Each Buyer and each Seller Party hereby agree or so long as an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) has not been returned by any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”) to Administrative Agent after demand therefor in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), (i) Administrative Agent may elect, in its sole discretion on written notice to such Buyer, that all rights and claims of such Buyer with respect to the Repurchase Price or other Obligations owed to such Person up to the amount of the corresponding Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency in respect of such Erroneous Payment (the “Corresponding Repurchase Price”) shall immediately vest in Administrative Agent upon such election; after such election, Administrative Agent (x) may reflect its ownership interest in the related Repurchase Price in a principal amount equal to the Corresponding Repurchase Price on the Asset Schedule, and (y) upon five business days’ written notice to such Buyer, may sell such Repurchase Price (or portion thereof) in respect of the Corresponding Repurchase Price, and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by such Buyer shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Repurchase Price (or portion thereof), and Administrative Agent shall retain all

-68-

other rights, remedies and claims against such Buyer (and/or against any Payment Recipient that receives funds on its behalf), and (ii) each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that Administrative Agent has sold such Repurchase Price, and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Buyer with respect to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency. For the avoidance of doubt, no vesting or sale pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) will reduce the Committed Amount of any Buyer and such Committed Amount shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Seller Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by Administrative Agent from a Seller Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(e) No Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(f) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 10.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, Administrative Agent, the termination of the obligations set forth in Section 2.01 with respect to the Committed Amount and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Transaction Document.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.01 Survival. This Agreement and the other Program Agreements and all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties herein and therein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto and thereto, shall survive the entering into of the Transaction and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations are outstanding and unpaid.

Section 11.02 Indemnification. Seller Parties shall, jointly and severally, and hereby agree to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Administrative Agent, each Buyer, any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or any Buyer and their respective directors, officers, agents, employees and counsel from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses incurred by any of them (except to the extent that it is finally judicially determined to have resulted from their own gross negligence or willful misconduct) as a consequence of, or arising out of or by reason of any litigation, investigations, claims or proceedings which arise out of or are in any way related to, (i) this Agreement or any other Program Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the PMC FMSR Parent’s servicing practices or procedures; (iii) any actual or proposed use by any Seller Party of

-69-

the proceeds of the Purchase Price, and (iv) any Default, Event of Default or any other breach by any Seller Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement, including amounts paid in settlement, court costs and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection with any of the foregoing. If and to the extent that any Obligations are unenforceable for any reason, each Seller Party hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such Obligations which is permissible under applicable Law. Seller Parties’ obligations set forth in this Section 11.02 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and each other Program Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any other of its obligations set forth in this Agreement or otherwise. In addition, Seller Parties shall, upon demand, pay to Buyers or Administrative Agent, as applicable, all costs and Expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) paid or incurred by Buyers or Administrative Agent in (i) enforcing or defending its rights under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement, (ii) collecting the Purchase Price outstanding, (iii) foreclosing or otherwise collecting upon any Repurchase Assets and (iv) obtaining any legal, accounting or other advice in connection with any of the foregoing.

Section 11.03 Nonliability of Buyers. The parties hereto agree that, notwithstanding any affiliation that may exist between any Seller Party and Buyers, the relationship between and among Administrative Agent, Seller Parties and Buyers shall be solely that of arms-length participants. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Buyer shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Seller Party. Each Seller Party (i) agrees that neither Administrative Agent nor any Buyer shall have any liability to any Seller Party (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Seller Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by this agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined by a judgment of a court that is binding on Administrative Agent and Buyers (which judgment shall be final and not subject to review on appeal), that such losses were the result of acts or omissions on the part of Administrative Agent or Buyers constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim against Administrative Agent or any Buyer (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise), except a claim based upon gross negligence or willful misconduct. Whether or not such damages are related to a claim that is subject to such waiver and whether or not such waiver is effective, neither any Buyer nor Administrative Agent shall have any liability with respect to, and each Seller Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by any Seller Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated or the relationship established by this Agreement, the other loan documents or any other agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith or therewith, unless it is determined by a judgment of a court that is binding on Administrative Agent and Buyers (which judgment shall be final and not subject to review on appeal), that such damages were the result of acts or omissions on the part of Administrative Agent or Buyers, as applicable, constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence.

Section 11.06 Severability. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 11.07 Section Headings. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 11.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The parties agree that this Agreement, any addendum or amendment hereto or any other document necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be accepted, executed or agreed to through the use of an electronic signature in accordance with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, 15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq, Official Text of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as approved by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws at its Annual Conference on July 29, 1999 and any applicable state law.

Section 11.09 Periodic Due Diligence Review. Each Seller Party acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers have the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to Seller Parties and the MSRs and Purchased Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller Parties agree that upon reasonable (but no less than five (5) Business Days’) prior written notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller Parties, Administrative Agent or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the ordinary conduct of any Seller Party’s business, to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such MSR and Purchased Assets in the possession or under the control of any Seller Party. Each Seller Party also shall make available to Administrative Agent and Buyers a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the MSRs and Purchased Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Seller Party acknowledges that Buyers may enter into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from Sellers based solely upon the information provided by Sellers to Buyers in the Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Administrative Agent, 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 Assets related to a Transaction. Each Seller Party agrees to cooperate with Administrative Agent and Buyers and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Administrative Agent and Buyers and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such MSRs and Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of any Seller Party.

Section 11.10 Hypothecation or Pledge of Repurchase Assets. Buyers shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyers from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets; provided that prior to an Event of Default, such pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation is treated as a financing or hedging transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes or a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyers under this Agreement; provided, further that other than with respect to a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyers under this Agreement and prior to an Event of Default Buyers receive an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such repurchase transaction, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation will not result in the Issuer or Co-Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable as a corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Section 11.11 Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment.

(a) This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Administrative Agent, Buyers or Seller Parties, as applicable and shall be held by each party hereto, as applicable in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Administrative Agent, Buyers and PMC, except for (i) disclosure to Administrative Agent’s, Buyer’s or any Seller Party’s direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, or (ii) disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreements, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that Seller Parties may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Buyers or any pricing terms (including the Pricing Rate, Purchase Price Percentage, Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits) that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and Buyers.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Seller Party shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Repurchase Assets and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”). Seller Parties understand that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is

-75-

defined in Section 509(4) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLB Act”), and each Seller Party agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws. Each Seller Party shall implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information” of the “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the GLB Act) of Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers which any Seller Party holds, (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information. Each Seller Party represents and warrants that it has implemented appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the GLB Act and of the applicable standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect. Upon request, Seller Parties will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow Administrative Agent to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this Section 11.11. Without limitation, this may include Administrative Agent’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of Seller Parties. Seller Parties shall notify Administrative Agent and Buyers immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Administrative Agent or any Buyer or any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or any Buyer provided directly to any Seller Party by Administrative Agent or such Buyer or such Affiliate. Seller Parties shall provide such notice to Administrative Agent or such Buyer by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.

Section 11.12 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyers hereunder and by law, Administrative Agent and Buyers shall have the right, without prior notice to any Seller Party, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller Parties to the extent permitted by applicable Law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller Parties or any Affiliate thereof to Administrative Agent, Buyers or any of their respective Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return funds to Seller Parties), 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 or due from Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller Parties or any Affiliate thereof. Administrative Agent agrees promptly to notify Seller Parties after any such set off and application made by a Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section 11.13 Intent.

(a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code.

-76-

(b) It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 4.07, 7.03 or 11.12 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and Section 561 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

(c) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in 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) This Agreement is intended to be a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555 under the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement,” within the meaning of Section 561 under the Bankruptcy Code.

(f) It is the intention of the parties that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for accounting purposes, each Transaction constitute a financing, and that Sellers be (except to the extent that Administrative Agent shall have exercised its remedies following an Event of Default) the owner of the Purchased Assets for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable Law, Administrative Agent, Seller Parties and Buyers shall treat the Transactions as described in the preceding sentence (including on any and all filings with any U.S. federal, state, or local taxing authority and agree not to take any action inconsistent with such treatment).

Section 11.14 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Program Agreements provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for derivative contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regime”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Transaction Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent

-77-

as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Program Agreements that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Program Agreements were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Buyer shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
