REVOLVING BRIDGE LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT between ARBOR REALTY SR, INC., as Borrower, and CAPITAL ONE, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Lender Dated as of July 22, 2011

1.6                                     Conditions to Extending the Initial Maturity Date

Upon satisfaction of each of the following conditions, Borrower may extend the Initial Maturity Date until the Extended Maturity Date (such period is referred to herein as the “Extension Term”):

1.6(a)                                                       No Default.  No Default or Event of Default exists.

1.6(b)                                                      Notice From Borrower.  Lender receives written notice of Borrower’s request to exercise its extension right at least sixty (60) days, but not more than ninety (90) days, before the Initial Maturity Date.  Such request for extension shall be accompanied by all other documents and information required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 1.6 to the extent then available.

1.6(c)                                                       Principal Payment.  On the Initial Maturity Date, Borrower delivers to Lender a principal payment on the Loan in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the outstanding principal amount of all Advances (the “Principal Paydown”), which shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.

1.6(d)                                                      Loan Fee.  On the Initial Maturity Date, Borrower pays Lender an extension fee in an amount equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the outstanding principal amount of all Advances after giving effect to the Principal Paydown paid by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.6(c) (the “Extension Fee”).

1.6(e)                                                       Additional Documents.  Borrower executes and delivers to Lender such agreements and documents as Lender may reasonably require incident to the extension.

1.6(f)                                                         Before End of Term.  Each of the foregoing conditions is satisfied not later than, and on, the Initial Maturity Date.

Within fifteen (15) days following receipt by Lender of Borrower’s written notice under Section 1.6(b) above requesting the extension, Lender shall notify Borrower in writing if all of the conditions precedent to extension, other than payment of the Principal Paydown and the Extension Fee and no Default or Event of Default on the Initial Maturity Date (which cannot be determined until the Initial Maturity Date), have been satisfied, or if further information or certificates are required.  If Lender determines that the conditions to extension have been satisfied, other than payment of the Principal Paydown and the Extension Fee and no Default or Event of Default on the Initial Maturity Date (which cannot be determined until the Initial Maturity Date), Lender shall so notify Borrower and upon Lender’s receipt of the Principal Paydown and the Extension Fee no later than the Initial Maturity Date, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists as of the Initial Maturity Date (unless waived by Lender in writing in its sole discretion), the Initial Maturity Date shall be extended until the Extended Maturity Date.

All of the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents shall continue to apply to the Extension Term of the Loan, except as follows: (i) no Advances shall be made during the Extension Term, and (ii) on the date that is six (6) months after the Initial Maturity Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a principal payment on the Loan in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the then outstanding principal amount of all Advances, which shall be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.  Failure to make such principal payment on the Loan in accordance with this paragraph shall constitute an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10.1(a).

2.                                      PROCEDURES FOR OBTAINING ADVANCES

2.1                                     Advances

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may request Advances from time to time by delivering to the Lender a complete and signed request therefor (an “Advance Request”), in the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto.  Provided that after giving effect to such Advance, the Line of Credit Limit shall not be exceeded, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 and Exhibit B and Exhibit C, an Advance so requested by Borrower shall be made by the transfer of the proceeds of such Advance, at the Borrower’s option (A) to a Person designated by the Borrower; (B) to the Lender to be applied toward any Obligation hereunder; or (C) as otherwise instructed by the Borrower.  Upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior Notice to Borrower, Lender may modify its form of Advance Request and any other Exhibit or document referred to in this Section to conform to current legal requirements or Lender’s practices and, as so modified, those Exhibits and documents will become part of this Agreement (provided that any such modification does not materially alter the obligations of the Borrower or the requirements of Lender).

3.                                      INTEREST, PRINCIPAL AND FEES

3.1                                     Interest

3.1(a)                                                Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan from time to time shall bear interest at one of the following rates as designated by Borrower in the applicable Advance Request:  (i) the Applicable Libor Rate or (ii) the Applicable Base Rate.  If the Borrower fails to elect whether any Advance shall bear interest at the Applicable Libor Rate or the Applicable Base Rate, such Advance shall bear interest at the Applicable Libor Rate.

3.1(b)                                               All interest shall be: (i) payable monthly, in arrears, in the amount of the Interest Payment for such calendar month, commencing on the first day of the calendar month immediately following the Closing Date, and on the first day of each month thereafter until the principal, together with all interest and other charges payable with respect to the Advances, shall be fully paid and on the Maturity Date; and (ii) calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.  Lender’s determination of such rates of interest as of any date of determination are conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.

3.1(c)                                                If, for any reason, (1) a Borrower repays an Advance on the same day that it was made, or (2) a Borrower instructs Lender not to make a previously requested Advance after Lender has reserved funds or made other arrangements necessary to enable Lender to fund that Advance, Borrower shall pay to Lender an administrative fee equal to one (1) day of interest on that Advance at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.50%) per annum. All administrative fees are due and payable within ten (10) days after notice from Lender.  In addition to the foregoing administrative fee, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any such Advance that is repaid on the same day that it was made shall bear interest for such day at the same rate as all other Advances, and otherwise shall be subject to all other provisions of this Agreement generally applicable to Advances, except to the extent that (i) such payment is received by the Lender by the time specified in Section 3.7(a)(x) or (y), as may be applicable, and (ii) such Advance was not used by Borrower for any purpose (for example, because the transaction to be funded by the Borrower utilizing the proceeds of such Advance did not close).

3.1(d)                                               After either (x) an Event of Default occurs and upon Notice to the Borrower by Lender, unless and until such Event of Default is waived or cured as provided in this Agreement, or (y) the Maturity Date, the unpaid amount of each Advance to the Borrower will bear interest at the Default Rate until paid in full.

3.2                                     Interest Limitation

If, at any time, the rate of interest, together with all amounts which constitute or are deemed under any applicable law to constitute interest and which are reserved, charged or taken by a Lender as compensation for fees, services or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating or collecting of Advances, shall be deemed by any competent court

6

of law, governmental agency or tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by a Lender to Borrower under applicable law, then, during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal. As used herein, the term “applicable law” shall mean the law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then this Agreement shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

3.3                                     Principal Payments

3.3(a)                                                On the Maturity Date, Borrower must pay Lender the outstanding principal balance of all Advances maturing on such Maturity Date, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any unpaid costs and expenses related thereto.

3.3(b)                                               Borrower may prepay any portion of the Loan without premium or penalty at any time, subject to payment of amounts specifically provided for herein resulting from such payment.

3.3(c)                                                Upon telephonic or written Notice to the Borrower by Lender, the Borrower must pay to Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to charge the Bridge Clearing Account for, the amount of any outstanding Advance against a specific Pledged Loan of Borrower upon the earliest occurrence of any of the following events:

(1)                                  On the date an Advance was made if the Pledged Loan to be funded by that Advance is not closed and funded.

(2)                                  At the option of the Lender, in its sole discretion, one (1) Business Day elapses from the date an Advance was made against a Pledged Loan, without receipt of the Collateral Documents relating to that Pledged Loan required to be delivered on that date.

(3)                                  At the option of Lender, in its sole discretion, ten (10) Business Days elapse without the return of one (1) or more Collateral Documents delivered by Lender to Borrower under a Trust Receipt for correction or completion.

(4)                                  On the date on which a Pledged Loan is determined to have been originated based on material untrue, incomplete or inaccurate information or otherwise to be subject to fraud, whether or not the Borrower had knowledge of the misrepresentation, incomplete or incorrect information or fraud.

(5)                                  On the date on which the Borrower knows or receives Notice from Lender, that (A) one or more of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 9 were inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect on any date when made or deemed made, or (B) the Borrower has failed to perform or comply with any covenant, term or condition applicable to it set forth in Article 9.

7

(6)                                  Upon the sale, other disposition or prepayment of any Pledged Loan.

(7)                                  With respect to any Pledged Loan, any of the Collateral Documents relating to such Pledged Loan, upon examination by Lender, are found not to be in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement.

3.3(d)                                               In addition to the payments required by Section 3.3(a) and 3.3(c), the Borrower must pay to Lender, without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender, upon Notice to the Borrower, to charge the Bridge Clearing Account for, the following amounts, which shall be applied to the Advance outstanding against the specific respective Pledged Loan:

(1)                                  If the principal amount of any Pledged Loan is paid in whole or in part while an Advance is outstanding against such Pledged Loan, the amount of such principal payment shall be paid within three (3) Business Days after receipt by Borrower of such payment.

(2)                                  The Advance outstanding against any Pledged Loan shall be paid on the final maturity date of such Pledged Loan (after giving effect to any right to extend the term of such Pledged Loan exercised by the borrower under such Pledged Loan).

(3)                                  If a Pledged Loan is in default and remains in default for a period of sixty (60) days or more, the Advance outstanding against such Pledged Loan shall be paid within three (3) Business Days following the expiration of such sixty (60) period.

(4)                                  If the Borrower writes-down, charges off or sets up a reserve against a Pledged Loan, the Advance outstanding against such Pledged Loan shall be paid within three (3) Business Days following such occurrence.

(5)                                  If, on the date of reporting in accordance with Section 7.3(b)(3), a Property fails to satisfy a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.00 to 1.00, the Advance outstanding against such Pledged Loan shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days following such occurrence, provided that no such payment shall be due as long as a cash interest reserve for such Pledged Loan (i) was funded in an amount acceptable to Lender (a) at the closing of such Pledged Loan, or (b) within three (3) Business Days from the date of notice that the Property fails to satisfy the minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.00 to 1.00, (ii) is held at the Lender, and (iii) is used to pay interest and principal due on the Pledged Loan to the extent net cash flow from the Property is insufficient.

(6)                                  If, on the date of reporting in accordance with Section 7.3(b)(4), a Property fails to satisfy a minimum Debt Yield of nine and one-half percent (9.5%), the Advance outstanding against such Pledged Loan shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days following such occurrence.

8

(7)                                  If the Initial Maturity Date is extended pursuant to Section 1.6, an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the then outstanding principal amount of all Advances shall be paid on the date that is six (6) months after the Initial Maturity Date in accordance with Section 1.6.

3.3(e)                                                The proceeds of the refinancing, sale, other disposition or repayment of Pledged Loans must be paid directly by the Person providing such proceeds to the Bridge Lender Only Account. If the proceeds of the refinancing, sale, other disposition or repayment of payment of any Pledged Loan are less than the outstanding Advance against such Pledged Loan, Borrower must pay to Lender, and Borrower authorizes Lender to charge the Bridge Clearing Account in, an amount equal to that deficiency. As long as no Default or Event of Default exists, Lender will promptly transfer from the Bridge Lender Only Account to the Bridge Clearing Account any excess proceeds of Pledged Loans.

3.4                                     Non-Usage Fees

At the end of each Calendar Quarter during the term of this Agreement, Lender will determine the average usage of the Commitment by calculating the arithmetic daily average of the Advances outstanding during such Calendar Quarter (“Used Portion”).  Lender will then subtract the Used Portion from the arithmetic daily average of the Line of Credit Limit during such Calendar Quarter, and the result, if positive, will be known as the “Unused Portion.” Borrower must pay to Lender a fee (“Non-Usage Fee”) in the amount of 0.50% per annum of the Unused Portion during such Calendar Quarter.  The Non-Usage Fee, to the extent required to be paid hereunder, is payable quarterly, in arrears on the tenth (10th) day of the month following the last day of each Calendar Quarter.  Lender computes the Non-Usage Fee on the basis of the actual number of days in each Calendar Quarter and a year of 360 days. If the date set forth in clause (i) of the definition of Maturity Date occurs on a day other than the last day of a Calendar Quarter, Borrower must pay the prorated portion of the Non-Usage Fee due from the beginning of the then current Calendar Quarter to and including that date. Borrower is not entitled to a reduction in the amount of the Non-Usage Fee under any circumstances.  If the Commitment terminates as a result of an Event of Default, Borrower must pay, on the date of termination, a Non-Usage Fee in the amount of 0.50% per annum of the Unused Portion in effect immediately prior to the date of termination, for the period from the date of termination to and including the date set forth in clause (i) of the definition of Maturity Date. Lender’s determination of the Non-Usage Fee for any period is conclusive and binding, absent manifest error.

3.5                                     Commitment Fee

On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay Lender a fee (“Commitment Fee”) in an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Line of Credit Limit. The Commitment Fee is fully earned as of the date hereof, and is non-refundable.  Borrower is not entitled to a reduction in the amount of the Commitment Fee if (i) the Line of Credit Limit is reduced or (ii) the Commitment is terminated at the request of Borrower or as a result of an Event of Default.

9

3.6                                     Miscellaneous Fees and Charges

Borrower must reimburse Lender for all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges, which such Miscellaneous Fees and Charges shall be in such amounts which are consistent with the amount of similar fees and charges which the Borrower has agreed to pay to the Lender in connection with other banking services which the Lender provides to the Borrower (e.g., fees associated with cash management agreements and the like). Borrower must pay all Miscellaneous Fees and Charges within ten (10) days after the date of Lender’s invoice or, if applicable, within ten (10) days after the date of Lender’s account analysis statement.

3.7                                     Method of Making Payments

3.7(a)                                                All payments of interest, principal and fees shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, without counterclaim or setoff and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments: (i) by direct charge to the Bridge Clearing Account, or (ii) by wire transfer to Lender from the Borrower, or (iii) by transfer from the Bridge Lender Only Account as provided herein.  Payments shall be credited on the Business Day on which immediately available funds are received prior to 2:00 P.M.; payments received after the times referred to in the preceding clause shall be credited to the Loan on the next Business Day.  Payments which are by check, which Lender may at its option accept or reject, or which are not in the form of immediately available funds shall not be credited to the Loan until such funds become immediately available to Lender, and, with respect to payments by check, such credit shall be provisional until the item is finally paid by the payor bank. All payments shall be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses, and other amounts due to the Lender (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of outstanding principal, provided, however, that after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, payments will be applied to the Obligations as the Lender determines.

3.7(b)                                               Borrower authorizes Lender to charge the Bridge Clearing Account for any interest or fees due and payable to Lender on or after the date such interest or fee became due and payable. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender will provide Borrower with reasonable Notice of any such charge.  From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may charge the Bridge Clearing Account without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from Lender.

3.7(c)                                                While a Default or Event of Default exists, Borrower authorizes Lender to charge the Bridge Clearing Account, or the Bridge Lender Only Account, but no Third Party Custodial Deposit Account, for any Obligations due and payable to Lender, without the necessity of prior demand or Notice from Lender.

3.7(d)                                               All payments made on account of the Obligations shall be made by the Borrower to Lender. No principal payments resulting from the refinancing, sale or other disposition of Pledged Loans shall be deemed to have been received by Lender until Lender has also received the Notice required under Section 3.3(c).

10

3.8                                     Billings

Lender may submit monthly billings reflecting payments due; provided, however, that any changes in the interest rate and in the outstanding amount of the Loan which occur between the date of billing and the due date may be reflected in adjustments in the billing for a subsequent month. Neither the failure of Lender to submit a bill, nor any error in any such bill shall excuse Borrower from the obligation to make full payment of all of Borrower’s payment obligations when due.

3.9                                     Late Charges

Borrower shall pay, upon billing therefor, a “Late Charge” equal to five (5%) of the amount of any payment of principal, other than principal due at the Maturity Date (or the date on which Lender accelerates the time for payment of the Loan after the occurrence of an Event of Default), interest, or fees, which are not paid by Borrower within ten (10) days of the due date thereof.  Late Charges are: (a) payable in addition to, and not in limitation of, the Default Rate; (b) intended to compensate The Lender for administrative and processing costs incident to late payments; (c) not interest; and (d) not subject to refund or rebate or credit against any other amount due.

3.10                              Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy

Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender from time to time such amounts as Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate Lender for any costs incurred by Lender that it determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any Libor Rate Advances to Borrower, any reduction in any amount receivable by Lender from Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Libor Rate Advances or such obligation or the maintenance by Lender of capital in respect of the Loan (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:  (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of the Loan (other than taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges which are excluded from the definition of Taxes pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.11(a)); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other reserve requirement to the extent utilized in the determination of the Applicable Libor Rate for the Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, Lender, or any commitment of Lender; or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Lender to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy).

3.11                              Concerning Libor Rate Advances

3.11(a)                                          Regulatory Change.  Without limiting the effect of the provisions of Section 3.10, if, by reason of any Regulatory Change, Lender either (i) incurs

11

Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Libor Rate Advances is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of Lender that includes Libor Rate Advances or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower, the obligation of Lender to continue Libor Rate Advances hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.12 shall apply).

3.11(b)                                         Suspension of Libor Rate Advances. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of the Applicable Libor Rate for any day:

(A)                              Lender reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Applicable Libor Rate for such day, or

(B)                                Lender reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of making or maintaining Advances;

then Lender shall give Borrower prompt notice thereof, and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Loan (and all Advances under the Loan) shall bear interest at the Applicable Base Rate.

3.11(c)                                          Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Lender shall reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it has become unlawful for Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain Libor Rate Advances hereunder, then Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof, and Lender’s obligation to continue Libor Rate Advances shall be suspended until such time as Lender determines that it may again maintain Libor Rate Advances (in which case the provisions of Section 3.12 shall be applicable).

3.12                              Treatment of Suspended Libor Rate Advances

If the obligation of Lender to make or continue Libor Rate Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.10, then all outstanding Libor Rate Advances shall be automatically converted into, and all subsequent Advances will be made as, Domestic Rate Advances.  Upon the termination of the circumstances that gave rise to such suspension, Lender shall give Notice to the Borrower that such circumstances have been terminated, and all outstanding Advances shall convert to, and all subsequent Advances will be made as, Libor Rate Advances.

12

3.13                              Taxes

3.13(a)                                          Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Lender hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on Lender’s income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Lender is organized or qualified to do business or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).  If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement to Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.13)) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iv) Borrower shall furnish to Lender, at its address referred to in Section 11.1, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

3.13(b)                                         Borrower also agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made by Borrower under this Agreement or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).  Further, if Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement to Lender, Borrower shall also pay to Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that Lender specifies is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that Lender would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed.

3.13(c)                                          Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.13 by Borrower) paid by Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; (ii) any other amounts payable under Section 3.7(d), and (iii) any liability (including additions to tax, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  Payment under this Section 3.13 shall be made within 30 days after the date Lender makes a demand therefor.

13

3.14                              Continuing Authority of Authorized Representatives

Lender is authorized to rely upon the continuing authority of the Persons hereafter designated by Borrower (“Authorized Representatives”) to bind Borrower with respect to all matters pertaining to the Loan and the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, the submission of requests for Advances, and certificates with regard thereto, instructions with regard to the Bridge Clearing Account and, to the extent permitted under this Agreement, the Collateral, and matters pertaining to the procedures and documentation for Advances. Such authorization may be changed only upon written Notice to Lender accompanied by evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, of the authority of the Person giving such Notice and such Notice shall be effective not sooner than five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof by Lender. The Authorized Representatives as of the Closing Date are listed on Exhibit D. Lender shall have a right of approval, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, over the identity of the Authorized Representatives so as to assure Lender that each Authorized Representative is a responsible and senior official of Borrower.

Document to which Guarantor is a party and such default has not been remedied or waived within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such default.

10.2                              Remedies

10.2(a)                                          If an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(g) occurs with respect to Borrower, the Commitment will automatically terminate as to the Borrower, and the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on Borrower’s Line of Credit Note and all other Obligations of Borrower will automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand or other Notice or requirements of any kind, all of which Borrower expressly waives.

10.2(b)                                         If any other Event of Default occurs, Lender, by Notice to the Borrower, may terminate all or any portion of the Commitment and declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable.

10.2(c)                                          If any Event of Default occurs, Lender, may, also take any of the following actions:

(1)                                  Foreclose upon or otherwise enforce its security interest in any Lien on the Collateral to secure all payments and performance of the Obligations in any manner permitted by law or provided for in the Loan Documents.

(2)                                  Notify all obligors under any of the Collateral that the Collateral has been assigned to Lender (or to another Person designated by Lender) and that all payments on that Collateral are to be made directly to Lender (or such other Person); settle, compromise or release, in whole or in part, any amounts any obligor owes on any of the Collateral on terms acceptable to Lender; enforce payment and prosecute any action or proceeding involving any of the Collateral; and where any Collateral is in default, foreclose on and enforce any Liens securing that Collateral in any manner permitted by law and sell any property acquired as a result of those enforcement actions.

(3)                                  Prepare and submit for filing Uniform Commercial Code amendment statements evidencing the assignment to Lender or its designee of any Uniform Commercial Code financing statement filed in connection with any item of Collateral.

(4)                                  Act, or contract with a third party to act, at Borrower’s expense, as servicer or subservicer of Collateral of Borrower requiring servicing, and perform all obligations required under any Collateral of Borrower, including Servicing Contracts.

(5)                                  Require Borrower to assemble and make available to Lender the Collateral and all related books and records at a place designated by Lender.

(6)                                  Enter onto property where any Collateral or related books and records are located and take possession of those items with or without judicial process; and

43

obtain access to Borrower’s data processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating to the Collateral and use all of the foregoing and the information contained in the foregoing in any manner Lender deems necessary for the purpose of effectuating its rights under this Agreement and any other Loan Document.

(7)                                  Before the disposition of the Collateral, prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent Lender deems appropriate.

(8)                                  Exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code of Massachusetts or other applicable law, including selling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion of the Collateral at one or more public or private sales, whether or not such Collateral is present at the place of sale, for cash or credit or future delivery, on terms and conditions and in the manner as Lender may determine.  Borrower waives any right it may have to prior notice of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral to the extent allowed by applicable law. If notice is required under applicable law, Lender will give Borrower not less than ten (10) days’ notice of any public sale or of the date after which any private sale may be held.  Borrower agrees that ten (10) days’ notice is reasonable notice. Lender may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale one or more times by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and the sale may be held at any time or place announced at the adjournment. In the case of a sale of all or any portion of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, such Collateral sold on those terms may be retained by Lender until the purchaser pays the selling price or takes possession of such Collateral. Lender has no liability to Borrower if a purchaser fails to pay for or take possession of Collateral sold on those terms, and in the case of any such failure, Lender may sell the Collateral again upon notice complying with this Section.

(9)                                  Instead of or in conjunction with exercising the power of sale authorized by Section 10.2(c)(8), Lender may proceed by suit at law or in equity to collect all amounts due on the Collateral, or to foreclose Lender’s Lien on and sell all or any portion of such Collateral pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(10)                            Proceed against Borrower on the Line of Credit Note.

(11)                            Retain all excess proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the Collateral, and apply them to the payment of the Obligations of Borrower under Section 10.3.

10.2(d)                                         Lender will incur no liability as a result of the commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral at any public or private sale or other disposition. Borrower waives (to the extent permitted by law) any claims they may have against Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price that Lender might have obtained at a public sale, or was less than the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances, accrued and unpaid interest on those Advances, and unpaid fees,

44

even if Lender accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. Borrower agrees that any sale of Collateral by Lender, or any other disposition of Collateral arranged by Lender, whether before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, will be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

10.2(e)                                          Borrower acknowledges that Mortgage Loans are collateral of a type that is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations. Borrower agrees that Lender may purchase Pledged Loans at a private sale of such Collateral.

10.2(f)                                            Borrower specifically waives and releases (to the extent permitted by law) any equity or right of redemption, stay or appraisal that Borrower has or may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or adopted after the date of this Agreement, and any right to require Lender to (1) proceed against any Person, (2) proceed against or exhaust any of the Collateral or pursue its rights and remedies against the Collateral in any particular order, or (3) pursue any other remedy within its power. Lender is not required to take any action to preserve any rights of Borrower against holders of mortgages having priority to the Lien of any Mortgage or Security Agreement included in the Collateral or to preserve Borrower’s rights against other prior parties.

10.2(g)                                         Lender may, but is not obligated to, advance any sums or do any act or thing necessary to uphold or enforce the Lien and priority of, or the security intended to be afforded by, any Mortgage or Security Agreement included in the Collateral, including 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 Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement, or in the enforcement of this Agreement, together with interest on those amounts at the Default Rate, from the time paid by Lender until repaid by Borrower, are deemed to be principal outstanding under this Agreement and the Line of Credit Note.

10.2(h)                                         No failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any right, power or remedy provided in this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, at law or in equity, will operate as a waiver of that right, power or remedy. No single or partial exercise by Lender of any right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, at law or in equity, precludes any other or further exercise of that right, power, or remedy by Lender, or Lender’s exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower waive all defenses based on the statute of limitations to the extent permitted by law. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided at law or in equity.

10.2(i)                                             Borrower grants Lender a license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s computer programs, other programs, labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in advertising

45

for sale and selling any of the Collateral and Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all other agreements related to the foregoing inure to Lender’s benefit until the Obligations are paid in full.

10.3                              Application of Proceeds

Lender may apply the proceeds of any sale, disposition or other enforcement of Lender’s Lien on all or any portion of the Collateral to the payment of the Obligations in the order Lender determines in its sole discretion. From and after the indefeasible payment to Lender of all of the Obligations, any remaining proceeds of the Collateral will be paid to Borrower, or to its successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. If the proceeds of any sale, disposition or other enforcement of the Collateral are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of that sale, disposition or other enforcement and payment in full of all Obligations, Borrower is liable for the deficiency.

10.4                              Lender Appointed Attorney-in-Fact

Borrower appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, the Line of Credit Note and the other Loan Documents and taking any action and executing any instruments that Lender deems necessary or advisable to accomplish that purpose. Borrower’s appointment of Lender as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender may give notice of its Lien on the Collateral of Borrower to any Person, either in Borrower’s name or in its own name, endorse all Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities payable to the order of Borrower, change or cause to be changed the book-entry registration or name of subscriber on any Pledged Security, prepare and submit for filing Uniform Commercial Code amendment statements with respect to any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements filed in connection with any item of Collateral of Borrower or receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of Borrower representing payment on account of the principal of or interest on, or the proceeds of sale of, any of the Pledged Loans or Pledged Securities of Borrower and give full discharge for those transactions. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, Lender agrees not to exercise the foregoing power of attorney except after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

10.5                              Right of Set-Off

Borrower hereby grants to Lender, a continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all liabilities and obligations of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property of Borrower, now or hereafter in the possession, custody safekeeping or control of Lender or any entity under the control of Lender (and with respect to the Lender, all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody safekeeping or control Lender or any other entity under control of Lender) and its successors and assigns or in transit to any of them, except for any accounts being held by Borrower in trust or in escrow solely for the benefit of one or more third parties that are not Affiliates of Borrower and in which Borrower has no ownership or beneficial interest.  At any time

46

upon or after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower), Lender may setoff the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other Collateral of Borrower securing the Loan.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL OF BORROWER WHICH SECURES THE LOAN, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
