(d) Optional Repurchase. Subject to the conditions herein, and so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, Seller may cause the sale of Purchased Assets and effect an Optional Repurchase (as defined below) on any date in connection with such Optional Repurchase which is not made in connection with an ordinary course liquidation of a Mortgage Loan. When the Mortgage Loans are desired to be sold or otherwise transferred or liquidated by Seller to a Take-Out Investor (an “Optional Repurchase”), for net sale proceeds that are equal or greater to the Repurchase Price of such Mortgage Loans, Seller shall give Buyer at least [***] prior written notice thereof designating the applicable Mortgage Loans and specifying the net sale proceeds expected from such sale. If such notice is given, Seller shall, or shall cause the Take-Out Investor to, make payment directly to the Buyer or the Collection Account (at Buyer’s determination) in an amount not less than the Repurchase Price.

(e) Repurchase. On the Repurchase Date, termination of the Transaction will be effected by reassignment to the Seller or their designee of the Purchased Assets (and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Section 5 hereof) against the simultaneous transfer of the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer. Such obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Mortgage Loan (but Liquidation Proceeds received by Buyer shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for the Purchased Assets on each Remittance Date except as otherwise provided herein). Seller is obligated to obtain the Asset Files from Buyer or its designee at Seller’s expense on the Repurchase Date.

(f) Mandatory Repurchase.

(i) If at any time there has occurred a Purchased Asset Issue with respect to any Purchased Asset, then the Asset Value thereof shall automatically be reduced to zero and Buyer may, in its sole discretion, with notice to the Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Repurchase Notice”), require Seller to repurchase such asset. In the case of a repurchase, such Seller, shall, at Buyer’s direction, be required to repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan as soon as is practicable but, in any case, not more than [***] after Buyer has delivered such Repurchase Notice to Seller. Seller shall be required to notify Buyer as soon as is practicable after obtaining knowledge of any fact that could be the basis for any Purchased Asset Issue, but, in any case, not more than [***] after obtaining knowledge thereof. For the sake of clarity, Seller shall ensure that such Repurchase Price (including without limitation any related expenses of Buyer incurred in connection therewith) is remitted directly to Buyer and not pursuant to Section 5 hereof. Any cash remitted to Buyer pursuant to this Section 3(f) shall be credited and applied to the Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Asset and any other amounts then due and payable by Seller with respect to such Purchased Asset.

(ii) Buyer’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to send a Repurchase Notice at any time a Purchased Asset is no longer an Eligible Mortgage Loan shall not in any way limit or impair its right to send a Repurchase Notice at a later time.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Concentration Limit is exceeded with respect to any Purchased Asset, then the Asset Value thereof shall automatically be reduced to zero and Buyer may, in its sole discretion, (i) provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice in which case Section 3(f)(i) above shall apply, (ii) reduce the Purchase Price of such Purchased Asset to a lower percentage, which may be zero, in which case Section 4 hereof shall apply, or (iii) require Seller to contribute additional Eligible Mortgage Loans to ensure they are in compliance with the Concentration Limit.

(g) LIBOR Rate Breakage Costs. Without limiting, and in addition to, the provisions of Section 16 hereof, the Seller agrees that if any Repurchase Price is paid other than in connection with an ordinary course liquidation of a Mortgage Loan and such Repurchase Price is paid on a date other than on a Remittance Date, the Seller shall, upon demand by the Buyer, pay to the Buyer any such amounts as are reasonable to compensate the Buyer for any additional losses (not including lost profits), costs or expenses which the Buyer may incur as a result of such payments, including, without limitation, any hedge breakage costs.

(h) Alternative Rate. If prior to any Remittance Date, Buyer determines in its sole discretion that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate, the LIBOR Rate is no longer in existence, or the administrator of the LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Buyer has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be made available or used for determining the interest rate of loans, Buyer may give prompt notice thereof to Seller, whereupon the Pricing Rate for such period, and for all subsequent periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be an alternative benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark rate (if any) incorporated therein) (any such rate, a “Successor Rate”), together with any proposed Successor Rate Conforming Changes, as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion.

Section 4. Margin Amount Maintenance.

(a) At any time a Margin Deficit in excess of the Minimum Margin Threshold exists, then Buyer may, by notice to Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Margin Call”), require Seller to transfer to Buyer or its designee, cash or, in Buyer’s sole discretion, additional Eligible Mortgage Loans (the “Additional Purchased Assets”) in an amount (or Asset Value, in the case of Additional Purchased Assets) sufficient to eliminate the Margin Deficit (a “Margin Payment”).

(b) Notice delivered pursuant to Section 4(a) may be given by any written or electronic means. Any Margin Deficit notice given before [***] (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Payment received, no later than [***] (New York City time) on the following Business Day. If notice is made after [***] (New York City time) on a Business Day, the Margin Payment shall be received by Buyer at [***] (New York City time) on the [***].

(c) The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, including, without limitation, its failure to send a Margin Call notice at any time a Purchased Asset is no longer an Eligible Mortgage Loan, or at any time there exists a Margin Deficit, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date, or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

(d) Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(a) above shall be credited to the Repurchase Price of the related Transactions.

Section 5. Income Payments.

(a) Notwithstanding that Buyer and Seller intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Assets for all purposes except accounting and tax purposes, Seller shall pay to Buyer the accrued and unpaid Price Differential (less any amount of such Price Differential previously paid by Seller to Buyer) on the Payment Date. If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential then due by [***] (New York time) on any Payment Date, the Pricing Rate shall be equal to the Post-Default Rate until the Price Differential then due is received in full by Buyer.

(b) Seller shall, and shall cause Servicer to, hold for the benefit of, and in trust for, Buyer all Income, including, without limitation, all Income received by or on behalf of Seller with respect to the Purchased Assets. Seller shall cause the Servicer to deposit all such Income received on account of the Purchased Assets serviced or managed by Servicer in the related servicer account, in accordance with the applicable Servicer Notice. To the extent that Seller is holding any Income, Seller shall deposit such Income on receipt into the Collection Account. To the extent such deposits are insufficient to cover the full Price Differential due on the next Payment Date, Seller shall deposit funds into the Collection Account sufficient to cover such shortfall.

(c) Seller shall cause Servicer to remit to the Collection Account all Income held in the related servicer account (such instruction shall be set forth in the Servicer Notice and shall be irrevocable without the prior written consent of Buyer) no later than, [***] following receipt in the servicer account. All Income shall be held in trust for Buyer, shall constitute the property of Buyer except for tax purposes which shall be treated as income and property of Seller and when deposited into the servicer account and Collection Account, respectively, shall not be commingled with other property of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller.

(d) Funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall be applied (x) with respect to Principal Income only, each Weekly Payment Date, pursuant to clauses (D), (E) and (F) below and (y) with respect to all other Income, each Payment Date prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default as follows:

(A) first, to Custodian on account of any accrued and unpaid custodial fees and to Payment Agent and Calculation Agent on account of any accrued and unpaid fees, unless Seller is paying such fees directly;

(B) second, to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding as of the Payment Date;

(C) third, to Buyer on account of unpaid fees, expenses, LIBOR Rate breakage costs, indemnity amounts and any other amounts due to the Buyer from Seller under the Agreement;

(D) fourth, to Buyer, with respect to each Purchased Asset, the amount of such Income representing Principal Income deposited into the Collection Account during such Collection Period with respect to such Purchased Asset to reduce the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Asset to zero;

(E) fifth, to pay to Buyer an amount sufficient to eliminate any outstanding Margin Deficit (after taking into account the application of funds pursuant to clause (D) above, and without limiting Seller’s obligation to satisfy a Margin Deficit in a timely manner as required by Section 4);

(F) sixth, all remaining amounts (if any), to the Seller.

(e) Reserved.

(f) To the extent that Buyer receives any funds from a Take-out Investor with respect to the purchase by such Take-out Investor of a Mortgage Loan (“Disposition Proceeds”), the Buyer shall promptly apply such funds to the Repurchase Price of the Mortgage Loans purchased by such Take-out Investor, any Margin Deficit, and shall promptly remit any excess to Seller.

(g) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, if an Event of Default has occurred, all funds in the Collection Account shall be withdrawn and applied as determined by Buyer.

Section 6. Requirements of Law.

(a) If any Requirement of Law or any change in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject Buyer to any Tax or increased Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction or change the basis of taxation of payments to Buyer in respect thereof;

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on Buyer any other condition; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount which Buyer deems to be material, of entering, continuing or maintaining any Transaction or to reduce any amount due or owing hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay Buyer such additional amount or amounts as calculated by Buyer in good faith as will compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material, then from time to time, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyer for such reduction.

(c) If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by Buyer to Seller shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

For purposes of this Agreement the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes other than, in the case of Buyer, Taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Buyer is organized or of its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of Buyer having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes).

(b) In addition, Seller hereby agrees 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 Facility Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Facility Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

Amounts payable by Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 7(c) shall be paid within [***] from the date on which Buyer makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within [***] after the date of any payment of Taxes, Seller (or any Person making such payment on behalf of Seller) shall furnish to Buyer for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(v) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is treated as a partnership or other non-corporate entity, and (B) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 7 Certificate, and (y) without duplication, with respect to each of its beneficial owners and the beneficial owners of such beneficial owners looking through chains of owners to individuals or entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes (all such owners, “beneficial owners”), the documents that would be provided by each such beneficial owner pursuant to this Section if such beneficial owner were Buyer; provided, however, that no such documents will be required with respect to a beneficial owner to the extent the actual Buyer is determined to be in compliance with the requirements for certification on behalf of its beneficial owner as may be provided in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, or the requirements of this clause (v) are otherwise determined to be unnecessary, all such determinations under this clause (v) to be made in the sole discretion of Seller; provided, however, that Buyer shall be provided an opportunity to establish such compliance as reasonable; or

(vi) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the document that would be provided by its beneficial owner pursuant to this Section if such beneficial owner were Buyer; or

If Buyer has provided a form pursuant to clause (e)(i)(x) above and the form provided by Buyer either at the time Buyer first becomes a party to this Agreement or, with respect to a grant of a participation, at the effective date of such participation, indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be treated as Taxes other than “Non-Excluded Taxes” (“Excluded Taxes”) and shall not qualify as Non-Excluded Taxes unless and until Buyer provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered Excluded Taxes solely for the periods governed by such form. If, however, on the date (after the Effective Date) a Person becomes an assignee, successor or participant to this Agreement, Buyer transferor was entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under this Section 7, then Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts to the extent (and only to the extent), that Buyer transferor was entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts for Non- Excluded Taxes, and Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to additional indemnification or additional amounts for any other or additional Non-Excluded Taxes.

(f) For any period with respect to which Buyer has failed to provide Seller with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) of this Section 7 (other than (i) if such failure is due to a change in any applicable Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided by Buyer, or (ii) if it is legally inadvisable or otherwise commercially disadvantageous for Buyer to deliver such form, certificate or other document), Buyer shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 7 with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Buyer become subject to Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, Seller shall take such steps as Buyer shall reasonably request, to assist Buyer in recovering such Non-Excluded Taxes.

(g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 7 shall require Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(h) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, and relevant state and local income and franchise taxes, to treat the Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets and the Purchased Assets as owned by Seller for federal income tax purposes in the absence of a Default by Seller. All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by law.

Section 8. Security Interest; Buyer’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

(a) Security Interest. On the Purchase Date, Seller hereby sells, assigns and conveys to Buyer all right, title and interest in the Purchased Assets to the extent of its rights therein. Although the parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases (other than for accounting and tax purposes) and not loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans, and in any event, Seller, to the extent of its rights therein, hereby pledges on the date hereof to Buyer as security for the performance of the Obligations and hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a first priority security interest in Seller’s rights, title and interest in the Purchased Assets, the Records, all Servicing Rights related to the Purchased Assets (to the extent of Seller’s rights therein), all Take-out Commitments, the Facility Documents (to the extent such Facility Documents and Seller’s rights thereunder relate to the Purchased Assets), any Property relating to any Purchased Asset or the related Mortgaged Property, all insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Mortgage Loan or any related Mortgaged Property, including but not limited to any payments or proceeds under any related primary insurance or hazard insurance, any Income relating to any Purchased Asset, the aggregate Holdback Amount, the Collection Account, the Disbursement Account, the Servicing Agreements, and any other contract rights, accounts (including any interest of Seller in escrow accounts) and any other payments, rights to payment (including payments of interest or finance charges) and general intangibles to the extent that the foregoing relates to any Purchased Assets or any interest in the Purchased Assets and the Mortgage Loans, as are specified on a Confirmation and/or Trust Receipt and Asset Detail and Exception Report, and any proceeds and distributions and any other property, rights, title or interests with respect to any of the foregoing, in all instances, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created (collectively, the “Repurchase Assets”).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in the event that Seller is deemed to retain any residual Servicing Rights, and for the avoidance of doubt, Seller grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a security interest in the Servicing Rights and proceeds related thereto and in all instances, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created, on or prior to the related Repurchase Date. The foregoing provision is intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to this Agreement and Transactions hereunder as defined under Sections 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets as Buyer, at its option, may deem reasonable and appropriate. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 8.

The grants of security interest set forth in this Section are intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Agreement and Transactions hereunder as defined under Section 101(47)(v) and 741(7)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) Buyer’s Appointment as Attorney in Fact. Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Buyer and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Seller, and in the name of Seller or in its own name, from time to time in Buyer’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement and to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, in each case, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller hereby give Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Seller without assent by, but with notice to, Seller if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to do the following:

(i) in the name of Seller or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any other Repurchase Assets and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Buyer for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any other Repurchase Assets whenever payable;

(ii) to pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Repurchase Assets; and

(iii) (A) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Repurchase Assets to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Buyer or as Buyer shall direct, including, without limitation, any payment agent with respect to any Repurchase Asset; (B) to send “goodbye” letters on behalf of Seller and Servicer; (C) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Repurchase Assets; (D) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Repurchase Assets; (E) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Repurchase Assets or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Repurchase Assets; (F) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Seller with respect to any Repurchase Assets; (G) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (F) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Buyer may deem appropriate; and (H) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Repurchase Assets as fully and completely as though Buyer were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Buyer’s option and Seller’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Buyer deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Repurchase Assets and Buyer’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Seller might do.

Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. In addition the foregoing, Seller agrees to execute a Power of Attorney, the form of Exhibit J hereto, to be delivered on the date hereof. Seller and Buyer acknowledges that the Powers of Attorney shall terminate on the later of (a) the Termination Date and (b) the satisfaction in full of the Obligations.

Seller also authorizes Buyer, if an Event of Default shall have occurred, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 15 hereof, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Repurchase Assets.

The powers conferred on Buyer hereunder are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Repurchase Assets and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Buyer shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Seller for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 9. Payment, Transfer And Custody.

(a) Payments and Transfers of Funds. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, all transfers of funds to be made by Seller hereunder shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Buyer at the following account maintained by Buyer: [***], [***], Account No. [***], for the account of Nomura Corporate Funding Americas LLC, ABA No. [***], ref: Funds for FACO, not later than [***] New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall become due (and each such payment made after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Seller acknowledges that it has no rights of withdrawal from the foregoing account.

(b) Remittance of Purchase Price. On the Purchase Date for each Transaction, ownership of the Purchased Assets shall be transferred to Buyer or its designee (i) with respect to Purchased Assets which are not Wet-Ink Mortgage Loans, against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase Price to such account as agreed to by Buyer and Seller, simultaneously with the delivery to Buyer of the Purchased Assets relating to each Transaction, and (ii) with respect to Wet-Ink Mortgage Loans, upon the disbursement of funds by the Disbursement Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Disbursement Agent Agreement. Upon notice from the Settlement Agent to Seller and/or Buyer that any Wet-Ink Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction was not originated, the Wet-Ink Mortgage Loan shall be removed from the list of Eligible Mortgage Loans and the Settlement Agent shall immediately return the funds via wire transfer to the account of Buyer specified in Section 9(a) in accordance with the Escrow Instruction Letter. Seller shall immediately notify Buyer if a Wet-Ink Mortgage Loan was not originated and has been removed from the list of Eligible Mortgage Loans.

Section 10. Hypothecation or Pledge of Purchased Assets. Title to all Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets shall pass to Buyer and Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Assets. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating the Purchased Assets. In furtherance, and not by limitation of, the foregoing, it is acknowledged that each counterparty with which any Buyer may engage in a transaction as contemplated hereunder is a repledgee as contemplated by Sections 9-207 and 9- 623 of the UCC (and the relevant Official Comments thereunder). Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Assets delivered to Buyer by Seller; provided, however, that Buyer is obligated to return the specific Purchased Assets upon repurchase by Seller.

Section 11. Fees. Seller shall pay to Buyer in immediately available funds, all fees due and owing as and when set forth in the Pricing Side Letter. The fees are non-refundable, and such payment shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Buyer at such account designated by Buyer.

The transfer of the Purchased Assets subject hereto is not undertaken with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of Seller’s creditors. Seller is not insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section 101(32) and the transfer and sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant hereto (i) will not cause Seller to become insolvent, (ii) will not result in any property remaining with Seller to be unreasonably small capital, and (iii) will not result in debts that would be beyond Seller’s ability to pay as same mature. Seller received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer and sale of the Purchased Assets.

Seller has heretofore furnished to Buyer a copy of (a) the Financial Statements of B2R Finance L.P. for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 with the opinion thereon of Deloitte & Touche LLP and (b) consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets for Seller and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such monthly periods up until April 31, 2017 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for Seller and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such monthly periods.

Since April 31, 2017, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of Seller or its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Seller aware of any state of facts which (without notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change or could have a Material Adverse Effect. Seller has, on April 31, 2017, no liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Seller except as heretofore disclosed to Buyer in writing.

(i) Action. Seller has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Facility Documents, as applicable; the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of each of the Facility Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on its part; and each Facility Document has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Seller.

(a) If an Event of Default occurs, the following rights and remedies are available to Buyer; provided, that an Event of Default shall be deemed to be continuing unless expressly waived by Buyer in writing:

(i) At the option of Buyer, exercised by written notice to Seller (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised, even if no notice is given, immediately upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event of Seller), the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder, if it has not already occurred, shall be deemed immediately to occur (the date on which such option is exercised or deemed to have been exercised being referred to hereinafter as the “Accelerated Repurchase Date”).

(ii) If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subsection (a)(i) of this Section,

(A) Seller’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Assets, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subsection (a)(i) of this Section, (1) shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (2) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by Buyer and applied to the Aggregate Repurchase Price and any other amounts owed by Seller hereunder, and (3) Seller shall immediately deliver to Buyer any Purchased Assets subject to such Transactions then in Seller’s possession or control; and

(B) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Repurchase Price with respect to each such Transaction (determined as of the Accelerated Repurchase Date) shall be increased by the aggregate amount obtained by daily application of, on a 360 day per year basis for the actual number of days during the period from and including the date of the exercise or deemed exercise of such option to but excluding the date of payment of the Repurchase Price as so increased, (x) the Post-Default Rate in effect following an Event of Default to (y) the Repurchase Price for such Transaction as of the Repurchase Date as determined pursuant to subsection (a)(i) of this Section.

(iii) Upon the occurrence of one or more Events of Default, Buyer shall have the right to obtain physical possession of all files of Seller relating to the Purchased Assets and all documents relating to the Purchased Assets related thereto which are then or may thereafter come in to the possession of Seller or any third party acting for Seller and Seller shall deliver to Buyer such assignments as Buyer shall request. Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance of all agreements of Seller contained in Facility Documents.

(iv) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Buyer, or Buyer through its Affiliates or designees, may (A) immediately sell, at a public or private sale at such price or prices as Buyer may reasonably deem satisfactory any or all of the Purchased Assets or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Assets, to retain such Purchased Assets and give Seller credit for such Purchased Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of such Purchased Assets (as determined and adjusted by the Buyer in its sole discretion, giving such weight to the BPO Value or Appraised Value, as applicable, or outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Asset as Buyer deems appropriate) against the Aggregate Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets and any other amounts owing by Seller under the Facility Documents. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Assets effected pursuant to the foregoing shall be applied as determined by Buyer.

(v) Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (A) the amount of all actual expenses, including reasonable documented legal fees and expenses, actually incurred by Buyer in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default, (B) all actual costs incurred in connection with covering transactions or hedging transactions, and (C) any other actual loss, damage, cost or expense arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default.

(vi) Promptly upon Buyer’s request, Seller shall provide, at Seller’s cost, an updated BPO for each Purchased Asset.

(b) The Seller acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the absence of a generally recognized source for prices or bid or offer quotations for any Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets, the Buyer may establish the source therefor in its sole discretion and (B) all prices, bids and offers shall be determined together with accrued Income. The Seller recognizes that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets may not be liquid at such time. In view of the nature of the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets, the Seller agrees that liquidation of a Transaction or the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Buyer may elect, in its sole good faith discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets, and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets on the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or to liquidate all of the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Buyer. Buyer may exercise one or more of the remedies available hereunder immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter without notice to Seller. All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may have.

(c) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

(d) Without limiting the rights of Buyer hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Buyer for Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Buyer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

(e) Buyer shall have, in addition to its rights and remedies under the Facility Documents, all of the rights and remedies provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, without limitation, if the Transactions are recharacterized as secured financings, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of the State of New York, to the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), in equity, and under any other agreement between Buyer and Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets against all of Seller’s obligations to Buyer, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency.

Section 16. Indemnification and Expenses.

(a) Seller agrees to hold Buyer, and its Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify any Indemnified Party against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind (including reasonable fees of counsel, and Taxes relating to or arising in connection with the ownership of the Purchased Assets, but excluding any Taxes otherwise addressed in Section 7 of this Agreement) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party (collectively, “Costs”), relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any wire fraud or data or systems intrusions which causes Buyer to suffer any such liability, loss, damage, judgment, cost and/or expense, that, in each case, results from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. For the avoidance of doubt “Costs” shall include Taxes that represent losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses arising from any non-Tax claim. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller agrees to hold any Indemnified Party harmless from and indemnify such Indemnified Party against all Costs with respect to all Purchased Assets, that, in each case, results from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Party in connection with any Purchased Assets for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Purchased Assets, Seller will save, indemnify and hold such Indemnified Party harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever of the account debtor or obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by Seller of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such account debtor or obligor or its successors from Seller. Seller

also agrees to reimburse an Indemnified Party as and when billed by such Indemnified Party for all the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or the preservation of Buyer’s rights under this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel.

(b) Seller agrees to pay as and when billed by Buyer all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer (including legal fees) in connection with the development, preparation and execution of this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith. Seller agrees to pay as and when billed by Buyer all of the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including without limitation filing fees and all the fees, disbursements and expenses of counsel to Buyer which amount shall be deducted from the Purchase Price paid for the first Transaction hereunder. Seller agrees to pay as and when billed by Buyer all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer (including legal fees) in connection with the development, preparation and execution of any amendment, supplement or modification to this Agreement, any other Facility Document or any other document prepared in connection thereto. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 30 hereof, Seller agrees to pay Buyer all the due diligence, inspection, testing and review costs and expenses incurred by Buyer with respect to Mortgage Loans submitted by Seller for purchase under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, those out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer pursuant to Sections 16(b) and 19 hereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of the Payment Agent and Calculation Agent.

(c) The obligations of Seller from time to time to pay the Repurchase Price, the Price Differential, and all other amounts due under this Agreement shall be full recourse obligations of Seller.

Section 17. Servicing.

(a) Seller, on Buyer’s behalf, shall contract with one or more Servicers to service the Mortgage Loans consistent with the degree of skill and care that such Servicers customarily require with respect to similar Mortgage Loans owned or managed by such Servicers and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicer shall (i) comply with all applicable Federal, State and local laws and regulations, (ii) maintain all state and federal licenses necessary for it to perform its servicing responsibilities hereunder and (iii) not impair the rights of Buyer in any Mortgage Loans or any payment thereunder. Buyer may terminate the servicing of any Mortgage Loan with the then existing servicer in accordance with Section 17(e) hereof.

Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement and their successors hereunder, any benefit of any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under this Agreement. Buyer may, upon at least [***] notice to Seller, from time to time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Facility Documents to any Person pursuant to an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned.

Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Buyer in writing. Buyer may distribute to any prospective assignee any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller.

(b) Buyer, upon at least [***] notice to Seller, may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any Person; provided, however, that (i) Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents except as provided in Section 7; provided that no such restrictions shall apply with respect to any sale to any Affiliate of Buyer or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and provided further that Buyer shall act as agent for all purchasers, assignees and point of contact for Seller pursuant to agency provisions to be agreed upon by Buyer, its intended purchasers and/or assignees and Seller.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 31 hereof to the contrary, Buyer may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 20, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant (each, an “NDA Counterparty”), as the case may be, any information relating to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such NDA Counterparty agrees to hold such information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event Buyer assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith an amendment to this Agreement to add agency provisions similar to those included in repurchase agreements for similar syndicated repurchase facilities.

Section 21. Transfer and Maintenance of Register.

(a) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 21, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement. Any assignment or transfer by Buyer of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 21 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 21(b) hereof.

(b) Buyer, as agent for Seller, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record Buyer’s rights hereunder, and each Assignment and Acceptance and participation. The Register shall include the names and addresses of Buyer (including all assignees, successors and participants) and the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned or participated. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller’s obligations in respect of such rights. If Buyer sells a participation in its rights hereunder, it shall provide Seller, or maintain as agent of Seller, the information described in this paragraph and permit Seller to review such information as reasonably needed for Seller to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable Requirement of Law.

Section 22. Tax Treatment. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes, to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets and that the Purchased Assets are owned by Seller in the absence of a Default by Seller. All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by law.

Section 23. Set-Off.

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

(b) Buyer shall at any time have the right, in each case until such time as Buyer determines otherwise, to retain, to suspend payment or performance of, or to decline to remit, any amount or property that Buyer would otherwise be obligated to pay, remit or deliver to Seller hereunder if an Event of Default has occurred.

Section 24. Terminability. Each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made by entering into a Transaction, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived any Default that may arise because any such representation or warranty shall have proved to be false or misleading, notwithstanding that Buyer may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time the Transaction was made. The obligations of Seller under Section 16 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 25. Notices And Other Communications. Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, all notices, requests and other communications provided for herein (including without limitation any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including without limitation by telecopy) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages hereof or thereof); or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except for notices given under Section 3 (which shall be effective only on receipt), all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by telecopy or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid. In all cases, to the extent that the related individual set forth in the respective “Attention” line is no longer employed by the respective Person, such notice may be given to the attention of a Responsible Officer of the respective Person or to the attention of such individual or individuals as subsequently notified in writing by a Responsible Officer of the respective Person.

Section 26. Entire Agreement; Severability; Single Agreement.

(a) This Agreement, together with the Facility Documents, constitute the entire understanding between Buyer and Seller with respect to the subject matter they cover and shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions involving Purchased Assets. By acceptance of this Agreement, Buyer and Seller acknowledge that they have not made, and are not relying upon, any statements, representations, promises or undertakings not contained in this Agreement. 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.

(b) Buyer and Seller acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and that each has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions.

Section 29. No Waivers, etc. No failure on the part of Buyer to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Facility Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under any Facility Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Unless otherwise indicated in the related Asset Schedule and reflected in an agreement included in the Asset File, neither Seller nor any prior holder of the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note has: (i) modified the mortgage or the related Mortgage Note in any material respect; (ii) satisfied, canceled, or subordinated the mortgage in whole or in part; (iii) released the Mortgaged Property in whole or in part from the lien of the Mortgage; or (iv) executed any instrument of release, cancellation, modification, or satisfaction. If a Mortgage Loan has been modified, the modified terms are reflected on the Asset Schedule. The related Mortgage, Mortgage Note and each other related Mortgage Loan Document contain the entire agreement of the parties and all of the obligations of Seller under the related Mortgage Loan.

(g) Business Purpose Mortgage Loan. The related Mortgaged Property is solely for use as an investment property and Seller has provided Buyer or its designee with a statement from the Mortgagor certifying such purposes as well as other checks as agreed to between Seller and Buyer as determined through due diligence. Such Mortgage Loan was not originated primarily for a personal, family or household purpose, as defined in the Truth in Lending Act and its implementing Regulation Z, and such Mortgage Loans was originated for business purposes. The Mortgaged Property securing the related Mortgage is non-owner occupied. The related Mortgagor furnished to the Seller a certification that it and the related Sponsor(s) do not intend to, and will not, occupy the Mortgaged Property for more than [***] during any [***].

(h) Mortgage Recorded; Assignments of Mortgage. Except as provided in paragraph (i) below, each original Mortgage was recorded or submitted for recordation in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located and all subsequent assignments of the original Mortgage have been delivered in the appropriate form for recording in all jurisdictions in which such recordation is necessary to perfect the ownership of the Mortgage by the owner thereof. With respect to each Mortgage that constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in such Mortgage and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the mortgagee to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Assignment of Mortgage, upon the insertion of the name of the assignee and recording information, is in recordable form (other than the name of the assignee if in blank) and is

Sch. 1-2

acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located. With respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, (i) the related Mortgage and Assignment of Mortgage have been duly and properly recorded in the name of MERS or its designee or have been delivered for recording to the applicable recording office and (ii) a mortgage identification number has been assigned by MERS and such mortgage identification number is accurately provided on the Asset Schedule (or is otherwise provided to Buyer).

Each of the documents and instruments specified to be included in the Asset File is executed and in due and proper form. With respect to each such Mortgage Loan, upon the consummation of the related Transaction, Custodian shall have received the related Asset File and such Asset File shall not have been released from the possession of the Custodian for longer than the time periods permitted under the Custodial Agreement.

(k) Taxes, Assessments. All taxes, governmental assessments, water, sewer, and municipal charges which previously became due and owing have been paid, or, where applicable law allows, an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for such item that remains unpaid; except for any such charges for which Seller and/or Servicer have, after due consideration, made a determination not to pay for, in accordance with their current practice and have been disclosed in writing to Buyer.

(l) No Rescission. (A) No Mortgage Note or Mortgage is subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim, or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage Note or Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject it to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim, or defense, including the defense of usury; and (B) to the best of Seller’s knowledge, no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim, or defense has been asserted with respect thereto.

(m) No Consents. Other than consents and approvals obtained as of the related Purchase Date or those already granted in the documents governing such Mortgage Loan, no consent or approval by any Person is required in connection with Seller’s sale and/or Buyer’s acquisition of such Mortgage Loan, for Buyer’s exercise of any rights or remedies in respect of such Mortgage Loan or for Buyer’s sale, pledge or other disposition of such Mortgage Loan. No third party holds any “right of first refusal”, “right of first negotiation”, “right of first offer”, purchase option, or other similar rights of any kind, and no other impediment exists to any such transfer or exercise of rights or remedies with respect to such Mortgage Loan. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or filing with, or notice to, any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction or regulatory authority over Seller is required for any transfer or assignment by the holder of such Mortgage Loan.

Sch. 1-3

(n) Legal, Valid and Binding Obligation. The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine, and each constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(o) Environmental Matters. The Mortgaged Property is free from any and all toxic or hazardous substances and there exists no violation of any local, state or federal environmental law, rule or regulation. There is no pending action or proceeding directly involving the Mortgaged Property in which compliance with any environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue or is secured by a secured lender’s environmental insurance policy

(p) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is located in a State of the United States of America or the District of Columbia and consists of a one- to four-unit residential property, which may include, but is not limited to, a single-family dwelling, a Small Multi-Family Property, condominium unit, or mixed use property. No Mortgaged Property is a mobile home or a manufactured home. Other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Multi-Property Rental Loan, such Mortgage Loan is secured by a Mortgage on only one Mortgaged Property.

(q) Appraisal. Except as otherwise agreed to by Buyer in its sole discretion, Seller has furnished to Buyer an Appraisal that reflects an Appraised Value of at least [***] of the related Mortgaged Property.

(r) Mortgaged Property Undamaged. With respect to each RTL Loan, unless such required repairs were identified at the time of origination and appropriate set-asides have been made for such repairs to the best of Seller’s knowledge, the related Mortgaged Property is in good repair and undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, hurricane, tornado, mold or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended. With respect to each Rental Loan, each related Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, vandalism, fire, hurricane, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty adversely affecting the value of a Mortgaged Property or the use for which the premises were intended, and each such Mortgaged Property is in substantially the same condition it was at the time the most recent Property Value was obtained.

(s) No Condemnation. There is no proceeding pending or to the best of the Seller’s knowledge threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the related Mortgaged Property.

(t) Mortgagor. The related Mortgagor is not insolvent and is not a foreign national.

(u) Consolidation of Principal Advances. Any principal advances made have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate reflected on the Asset Schedule. The lien of the Mortgage securing the principal amount (as expressed on the related Mortgage Note which shall include, with respect to RTL Loans, the undisbursed Holdback Amount) is insured as having first lien priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to Buyer.

Sch. 1-4

(v) No Fraud. No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of the Seller, the Mortgagor, the appraiser, any servicer or any other party involved in the origination or servicing of the Mortgage Loan or in the application of any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan or in connection with the sale of such Mortgage Loan to the Buyer.

(w) Approval. Seller and each other originator is licensed or qualified, as required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, as a mortgage lender in each state in which any related Mortgaged Property is located.

(x) Documents Genuine. Such Mortgage Loan and all accompanying Mortgage Loan Documents (including without limitation the related Mortgage Loan Documents) are complete and authentic and all signatures thereon are genuine.

(y) Disbursements of Holdback Amounts. With respect to RTL Loans, to the extent the related Mortgagor requests disbursement of any Holdback Amounts, all such Holdback Amounts required to be disbursed have been disbursed by Holdback Servicer to the Mortgagor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Documents.

(z) Hazard Insurance. The related Mortgaged Property is insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued by an insurer acceptable to Buyer, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, it is included under the coverage afforded by a blanket policy for the project. If any portion of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by any federal Governmental Authority as having special flood hazards, and flood insurance is available, a flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines of the Federal Emergency Management Agency is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (2) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. All such insurance policies (collectively, the “hazard insurance policy”) contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller, its successors and assigns (including, without limitation, subsequent owners of the Mortgage Loan), as mortgagee, and, to the extent such agreement is commercially available from the related insurer, may not be reduced, terminated or canceled without [***] prior written notice to the mortgagee arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least [***] prior written notice to the mortgagee arising for any reason other than nonpayment of a premium. No such notice has been received by Seller. All currently due premiums on such insurance policy have been paid. The related Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy

Sch. 1-5

covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. To Seller’s knowledge, the hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect. No Seller has engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(aa) Disbursement of Proceeds. Any and all requirements as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or any other related Mortgage Loan Document. All escrow deposits and payments required to be escrowed with Seller pursuant to each Mortgage Loan are in the possession, or under the control, of Seller or its servicer, and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith.

(bb) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to Buyer and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to Buyer and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage, as applicable, in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception with a specific survey reading. Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder or servicer of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy, including without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

Sch. 1-6

(cc) No Defaults. As of the Purchase Date, (i) there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage, the Mortgage Note or any other related Mortgage Loan Document (including without limitation a failure by Seller to make an advance in accordance with the terms thereof to the related Mortgagor thereunder), and (ii) no event has occurred which would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration. No Seller has waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under the Mortgage Note or any other related Mortgage Loan Document.

(dd) No Mechanics’ Liens. There are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material affecting the Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the Mortgage.

(ee) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value or BPO Value, as applicable, of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of such Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon such Mortgaged Property. No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning and building law, ordinance or regulation.

(ff) Underwriting Standards. Each Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with the applicable Underwriting Guidelines, unless otherwise approved by Buyer.

(gg) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage Note has a stated maturity. The 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, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. There is no homestead or other exemption available to a Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage. There is only one originally executed Mortgage Note not stamped as a duplicate with respect to such Mortgage Loan.

(hh) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement and chattel mortgage referred to in clause (i) above or other collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents. There are, as of origination date and as of the Purchase Date, no subordinate mortgages or junior liens securing the payment of money encumbering the related Mortgaged Property, and equipment and other personal property financing). No mezzanine debt is secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor.

(ii) Due-On-Sale. The Mortgage contains a provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the mortgagee thereunder.

(jj) Proceeds of Mortgage Loan. The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have not been and shall not be used to satisfy, in whole or in part, any debt owed or owing by the Mortgagor to Seller or any Affiliate or correspondent of Seller, except in connection with a refinanced Mortgage Loan.

(kk) No Equity Participation. No document relating to the Mortgage Loan provides for any contingent or additional interest in the form of participation in the cash flow of the Mortgaged Property or a sharing in the appreciation of the value of the Mortgaged Property.

Sch. 1-7

The indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note is not convertible to an ownership interest in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor and no Seller has financed nor does it own directly or indirectly, any equity of any form in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor.

(ll) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan provide that such Mortgage Loan is either (x) full recourse against the related Mortgagor and/or natural person or (y) non-recourse to the related parties thereto except that (a) the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity shall be fully liable for actual losses, liabilities, costs and damages arising from certain acts of the related Mortgagor and/or its principals specified in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, which acts generally include the following: (i) acts of fraud or intentional material misrepresentation, (ii) misapplication or misappropriation of rents, insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, (iii) intentional material physical waste of any related Mortgaged Property, and (iv) any breach of the environmental covenants contained in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, and (b) the Mortgage Loan shall become full recourse to the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity, if the related Mortgagor files a voluntary petition under federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law.

(mm) Single-Purpose Entity. With respect to each Mortgagor that is a Person other than an individual, each related non-recourse Mortgage Loan requires such Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Mortgage Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any material assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any material indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person, and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(nn) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan Documents do not provide for the release of any related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (b) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation or a material casualty, or (c) in connection with a substitution of collateral within the parameters specified in the related Mortgage Loan Documents.

(oo) Payments Current. All payments required to be made up to the Purchase Date for the Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note have been made and credited.

(pp) Advance of Funds by Seller. After origination, no advance of funds has been made by Seller to the related Mortgagor other than in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Documents, and, to each Seller’s knowledge, no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan (other than as contemplated by the Mortgage Loan Documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a lender-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the related lease or Mortgage Loan Documents). Neither Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the date hereof.

Sch. 1-8

(rr) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

(ss)Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Lots.

(tt) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan Documents that it shall keep all material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations necessary for its operation of the related Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and all such material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations are in effect. Each Mortgage Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located. No Seller is aware of any Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor on the Mortgage Loan having received notice of any noncompliance with any use or occupancy law, ordinance, regulation, standard, license or certificate with respect to any Mortgaged Property.

(uu) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against each related Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non- judicial foreclosure.

Sch. 1-9

Each Seller has recorded or caused to be recorded (or, if not recorded, have been submitted in proper form for recording), UCC financing statements in the appropriate public recording offices necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan to perfect a valid security interest in any collateral for such Mortgage Loan to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording, as the case may be.

(ww) Mortgage Recorded. The related Mortgage (or equivalent document) or other related collateral document creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of personalty described above that may be perfected by recording. No representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the recording of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection. The Mortgage either has been or will promptly be submitted for recordation in the appropriate recording office of the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement and chattel mortgage referred to above or other collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan Documents.

(xx) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage interest rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge, or prepayment premiums) of each Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury. No Mortgage Loan is subject to forfeiture or any material penalties as a result of non-compliance with any applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(yy) Costs. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the related Mortgage, which if unpaid would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property or the value of the related Mortgage Loan, were paid as of the related Purchase Date.
