Preliminary Statement

The Sellers and the Buyer have specifically agreed and hereby specifically declare that it is their intention that this Master Repurchase Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Agreement”) and the purchases of Eligible Mortgage Loans made pursuant to it are to be treated as repurchase transactions under the Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”), including all rights that accrue to Buyer by virtue of sections 559, 561 and 562 of the Bankruptcy Code. This Agreement also contains lien provisions with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans so that if, contrary to the intent of the parties, any court of competent jurisdiction characterizes any Transaction as a financing, rather than a purchase, under applicable law, including the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, the Buyer is deemed to have a first priority perfected security interest in and to the Purchased Mortgage Loans to secure the payment and performance of all of the Sellers’ Obligations under this Agreement.

The Buyer is authorized to debit the Operating Account or any other account of the Sellers other than an escrow account for payment of Non-Use Fees (provided, however, that this shall not limit the liability of the Sellers for payment of Non-Use Fees if amounts in such accounts shall not be sufficient to make such payment or if the Buyer may not, in its sole judgment, debit such account for any reason).

Section 10.4 Other Provisions Respecting Rights in Purchased Mortgage Loans. No action taken by the Buyer in respect of any Purchased Mortgage Loan shall affect or limit the Obligations of the Buyer, and, specifically, the Obligations consisting of the obligation of the Buyer to pay the Repurchase Price of any Purchased Mortgage Loan, except that the Buyer shall apply any amount irrevocably paid in cash to the Buyer in consideration of the purchase from the Buyer of any Purchased Mortgage Loan to the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan. In furtherance thereof, the Sellers agree as follows:

(a) The Buyer shall not incur any liability as a result of the sale or other disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale or disposition. The Sellers hereby waive (to the extent permitted by law) any claims they may have against the Buyer arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Purchased Mortgage Loans may have been sold at such private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Repurchase Price and the unpaid Price Differential thereon, even if the Buyer accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Purchased Mortgage Loans to more than one offeree. Any sale of Purchased Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms of an Investor Commitment, or any other disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans arranged by the Sellers, whether before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

(b) The Sellers specifically waive (to the extent permitted by law) any equity or right of redemption, all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which the Sellers have or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted, and any right to require the Buyer to (i) proceed against any Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or pursue its rights and remedies as against the Purchased Mortgage Loans in any particular order, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in its power. The Buyer shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights of the Sellers against holders of mortgages prior in lien to the Lien of any Purchased Mortgage Loans or to preserve rights against prior parties.

(c) The Buyer may, but shall not be obligated to, advance any sums or do any act or thing necessary to uphold and enforce the Lien and priority of, or the security intended to be afforded by, any Mortgage included in the Purchased Mortgage Loans, including, without limitation, payment of delinquent taxes or assessments and insurance premiums. All advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by the Buyer in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement hereof, together with interest thereon, at the highest Price Rate applicable under this Agreement, from the time of payment until repaid, shall become a part of the Obligations hereunder.

(d) The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided at law or in equity.

Section 10.5 Order of Application of Payments and Recoveries. The Buyer may apply any payments or recoveries, including without limitation proceeds of enforcement of rights in the Purchased Mortgage Loans, received after an Event of Default to the Obligations in such order as the Buyer shall elect in its sole discretion.

Section 10.6 Right of Setoff. After occurrence of an Event of Default, the Buyer shall have an express contractual right to set off against all deposit accounts and all deposit account balances, cash and any other property of the Sellers now or hereafter maintained with, or in the possession of, the Buyer and the right to refuse to allow withdrawals from any such account or of any such property (collectively, “Setoff”). The Buyer may Setoff against the Obligations whether or not the Obligations are then due or

have been accelerated. Buyer shall not be required to give advance notice of its exercise of the right of Setoff, but shall use best efforts to give notice thereof promptly following such exercise.

ARTICLE XI MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1 Waiver and Amendment. No failure on the part of the Buyer to exercise and no delay in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Related Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The remedies herein and in any other instrument, document or agreement delivered or to be delivered to the Buyer hereunder or in connection herewith are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. No notice to or demand on the Sellers not required hereunder shall in any event entitle the Sellers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the Buyer to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Sellers therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Buyer, and then such amendment, modifications, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 11.2 Expenses and Indemnities. Whether or not any Advance is made hereunder, the Sellers jointly and severally agree to (a) reimburse the Buyer upon demand for all reasonable expenses paid or incurred by the Buyer (including filing and recording costs and fees and expenses of legal counsel, who may be employees of the Buyer) in connection with the preparation, review, execution, delivery, amendment, modification, interpretation, collection and enforcement of the Related Documents (including without limitation those incurred in connection with any appeal of a lower court order or judgment); (b) pay, and save the Buyer harmless from all liability for, any stamp or other taxes which may be payable with respect to the execution or delivery of the Related Documents; and (c) indemnify, pay and hold harmless the Buyer and any of its officers, directors, employees or agents and any subsequent holder of the Buyer’s interests hereunder (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind whatsoever (the “Indemnified Liabilities”) which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or any other Related Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the extent the indemnified liabilities result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party. The agreement of the Sellers contained in this Section 11.2 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the other Obligations.

Section 11.12 Warehouse Finance Facilities.
