Section 4.04 Limited Pledge of Ginnie Mae Servicing. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Seller is entitled to servicing income with respect to a given mortgage pool only so long as Seller is a Ginnie Mae approved issuer; (y) upon the Seller’s loss of such approved issuer status, the Buyer’s rights to any servicing income related to a given mortgage pool also terminate; and (z) the pledge of the Seller’s rights to servicing income conveys no rights (such as a right to become a substitute servicer or issuer) that are not otherwise specifically provided for in the Ginnie Mae Contract, provided that this sentence shall automatically be deemed amended or modified if and to the extent Ginnie Mae amends the Ginnie Mae Contract, the applicable Acknowledgment Agreement, if any, or published announcements and provided further that the security interest created hereby is subject to the following provision to be included in each financing statement filed in respect hereof (defined terms used below shall have the meaning set forth in the applicable Acknowledgment Agreement):

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein:

(1) The property subject to the security interest reflected in this instrument includes all of the right, title and interest of Caliber Home Loans, Inc. (“Debtor”) in certain mortgages and/or participation interests related to such mortgages (“Pooled Mortgages”), and pooled under the mortgage-backed securities program of the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), pursuant to section 306(g) of the National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C. § 1721(g);

(2) To the extent that the security interest reflected in this instrument relates in any way to the Pooled Mortgages, such security interest is subject and subordinate to all rights, powers and prerogatives of Ginnie Mae, whether now existing or hereafter arising, under and in connection with: (i) 12 U.S.C. § 1721(g) and any implementing regulations; (ii) the terms and conditions of that certain Acknowledgment Agreement, dated as of April 2, 2018, with respect to the Security Interest, by and among Ginnie Mae, Debtor and Citibank, N.A., as indenture trustee; (iii) applicable Guaranty Agreements and contractual agreements between Ginnie Mae and the Debtor; and (iv) the Ginnie Mae Mortgage-Backed Securities Guide, Handbook 5500.3 Rev. 1, and other applicable guides (items (i), (iii) and (iv), collectively, the “Ginnie Mae Contract”);

(3) Such rights, powers and prerogatives of Ginnie Mae include, but are not limited to, Ginnie Mae’s right, by issuing a letter of extinguishment to Debtor, to effect and complete the extinguishment of all redemption, equitable, legal or other right, title or interest of the Debtor in the Pooled Mortgages, in which event the security interest as it relates in any way to the Pooled Mortgages shall instantly and automatically be extinguished as well; and

26

(4) For purposes of clarification, “subject and subordinate” in clause (2) above means, among other things, that any cash held by Citibank as collateral and any cash proceeds received by Citibank in respect of any sale or other disposition of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the collateral may only be applied by Citibank to the extent that such proceeds have been received by, or for the account of, the Debtor free and clear of all Ginnie Mae rights and other restrictions on transfer under applicable Ginnie Mae guidelines; provided that this clause (4) shall not be interpreted as establishing rights in favor of Ginnie Mae except to the extent that such rights are reflected in, or arise under, the Ginnie Mae Contract.

Section 4.05 Changes in Locations, Name, etc. Seller shall not (a) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 3.13, (b) change its jurisdiction of organization from the jurisdiction referred to in Section 3.13, or (c) change its name or identity, in each case unless it shall have given Buyer at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to Buyer all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as Buyer shall request and taken all other actions deemed necessary by Buyer to continue its perfected status in the Repurchase Assets with the same or better priority.

Section 4.06 Buyer’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

(a) 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 if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller hereby gives Buyer the power and right, on behalf of Seller, without assent by, but with notice to, Seller to do the following:

(i) in the name of Seller or 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 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 Repurchase Asset whenever payable;

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

(iii) except to the extent inconsistent with the related Servicing Contracts and the Acknowledgment Agreement, request that MSRs be transferred to Buyer or to another servicer approved by Ginnie Mae and perform (without assuming or being deemed to have assumed any of the obligations of Seller thereunder) all aspects of each Servicing Contract that is a Purchased Asset;

27

(v) deal with investors and master servicers in respect of any of the Repurchase Assets in the same manner and with the same effect as if done by Seller; and

(d) The powers conferred on Buyer are solely to protect Buyer’s interests in the Repurchase Assets and shall not impose any duty upon Buyer 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 Buyer nor any of its officers, directors, or employees shall be responsible to Seller for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for Buyer’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

28

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or any of the other Program Agreements, any appointment set forth in this Section 4.06, as well as Buyer’s exercise (or purported exercise) of any right, power or authority given by Seller hereunder, shall be subject to the Ginnie Mae Contract, the Acknowledgment Agreement and any and all instruments, agreements, invoices or other writings which give rise to or otherwise evidence any of the MSRs.

Section 4.07 Performance by Buyer of Seller’s Obligations. If Seller fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Program Agreements and Buyer may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable (under the circumstances) out-of-pocket expenses of Buyer actually incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate shall be payable by Seller to Buyer on demand and shall constitute Obligations. Such interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed from and including the preceding MRA Payment Date to and excluding such date of determination and a 360 day year.

Section 4.08 Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (a) all proceeds of Repurchase Assets received by Seller consisting of cash, checks and other liquid assets readily convertible to cash items shall be held by Seller in trust for Buyer, segregated from other funds of Seller, and shall forthwith upon receipt by Seller be turned over to Buyer in the exact form received by Seller (duly endorsed by Seller to Buyer, if required) and (b) any and all such proceeds received by Buyer (whether from Seller or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of Buyer, be held by Buyer as collateral security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by Buyer against, the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), such application to be in such order as Buyer shall elect. Any balance of such proceeds remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated shall be paid over to Seller or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Program Agreements, the provisions of this Section 4.08 shall be subject to the applicable Servicing Contracts and the Acknowledgment Agreement entered into with Ginnie Mae.

Section 4.09 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Buyer may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (including Buyer’s rights to a strict foreclosure under Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer may seek the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee, or similar official in respect of Seller or any of Seller’s property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer may terminate a Participation Interest in accordance with the applicable Participation Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required under this Agreement or by law referred to below) to or upon Seller or any other Person (each and all of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Repurchase Assets or any part thereof (or contract to do any

29

of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as an entirety at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Buyer or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Repurchase Assets so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Seller further agrees, at Buyer’s request, to assemble the Repurchase Assets and make them available to Buyer at places which Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at Seller’s premises or elsewhere. Buyer shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable (under the circumstances) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Repurchase Assets or in any way relating to the Repurchase Assets or the rights of Buyer hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Buyer may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by Buyer of any other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Buyer account for the surplus, if any, to Seller. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Buyer arising out of the exercise by Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Repurchase Assets shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as contemplated herein) if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Repurchase Assets are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements in amounts reasonable under the circumstances, of any attorneys employed by Buyer to collect such deficiency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Program Agreements, the remedies set forth in this Section 4.09 shall be subject to the applicable Servicing Contracts and the Acknowledgment Agreement entered into with Ginnie Mae.

Section 4.10 Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Repurchase Assets. Indenture Trustee’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Repurchase Assets in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Buyer deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Buyer nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Repurchase Assets or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Repurchase Assets upon the request of Seller or otherwise.

Section 4.11 Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Repurchase Assets are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

30

Section 4.12 Release of Security Interest. Upon the latest to occur of (a) the repayment to Buyer of all Obligations and the performance of all obligations under the Program Agreements, and (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, Buyer shall release its security interest in any remaining Repurchase Assets hereunder and shall promptly execute and deliver to Seller such documents or instruments as Seller shall reasonably request to evidence such release; provided, that such release shall not be required until such time as the Acknowledgment Agreement is terminated.

Section 4.13 Reinstatement. All security interests created by this Article IV shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation of Seller is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as if such release had not been made.

Section 4.14 Subordination.

(a) Seller agrees to not assert any objection to, and shall be deemed to have otherwise consented to, a disposition of any assets subject to the Program Agreements during an Insolvency Event of Seller, free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar bankruptcy law) if Buyer has consented to such disposition.

(b) If an Insolvency Event of Seller occurs, the Seller agrees not to contest (or support any other Person contesting) any request by Buyer for adequate protection, or any objection by Buyer to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on Buyer claiming a lack of adequate protection.

(c) Until the obligations under the Program Agreements are paid in full, the Seller shall not oppose any request by Buyer for relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Event of Seller.

(d) Seller shall not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by Buyer for allowance and payment in any Insolvency Event of Seller, of obligations under the Program Agreements consisting of post-petition interest, fees, costs or other charges to the extent of the value of Buyer’s lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims on the assets that are the subject of this Agreement, without regard to the existence of a lien, encumbrance, pledge or other claims applicable to the obligations of the other parties to the Program Agreements.

Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Article VIII shall be binding upon Buyer and Seller; and Buyer’s failure to insist upon the strict performance of any term, condition or other provision of this Agreement or any of the Program Agreements, or to exercise any right or remedy hereunder or thereunder, shall not constitute a waiver by Buyer of any such term, condition or other provision or Default or Event of Default in connection therewith, nor shall a single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or future exercise, or the exercise of any other right or remedy; and any waiver of any such term, condition or other provision or of any such Default or Event of Default shall not affect or alter this Agreement or any of the Program Agreements, and each and every term, condition and other provision of this Agreement and the Program Agreements shall, in such event, continue in full force and effect and shall be operative with respect to any other then existing or subsequent Default or Event of Default in connection therewith.

In the event of any such assignment, pledge, hypothecation or transfer by Buyer of Buyer’s rights under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements, Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Buyer (acting as agent for Seller) shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.04 a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of Transferees, and the Purchase Price outstanding and Price Differential in the Transactions held by each thereof. The entries in the Register shall be prima facie conclusive and binding, and Seller may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Transactions recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Seller or an agent of Seller shall maintain a register (the “Transaction Register”) on which it will record the Transactions entered into hereunder, and each assignment and acceptance and participation. The Transaction Register shall include the names and addresses of Buyers (including all assignees, successors and Participants), and the Purchase Price of the Transactions entered into by Buyer. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller’s obligations in respect of such Transactions. If Buyer sells a participation in any Transaction, 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 Law or governmental regulation or procedure.

Section 10.03 Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial: Waiver of Damages.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

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

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Periodic Due Diligence Review. Seller acknowledges that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to Seller and the Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than five (5) Business Days’) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the ordinary conduct of Seller’s business, to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Assets in the possession or under the control of Seller, subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Seller also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may enter into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Assets related to a Transaction. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of Seller.

Section 10.09 Hypothecation or Pledge of Repurchase Assets. Subject to the applicable Acknowledgment Agreement, Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets.

47

Section 10.10 Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment.

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

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Repurchase Assets and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”). Seller understands that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLB Act”), and Seller agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws. Seller shall implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information” of the “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the GLB Act) of Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent which Seller holds, (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information. Seller shall implement and maintain appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the GLB Act and of the applicable standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect. Upon request, Seller will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow Buyer to confirm that Seller has satisfied its obligations as required under this section. Without limitation, this may include Buyer’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of Seller. Seller shall notify Buyer promptly following discovery of any material breach or material compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent provided directly to Seller by Buyer or the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent. Seller shall provide such notice to Buyer pursuant to Section 10.4.

48

Section 10.11 Set-off. 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 or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return funds to Seller), 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, the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent to or for the credit or the account of Seller or any Affiliate thereof. 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.

Section 10.12 Intent.

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

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

(c) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(d) It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

(e) This Agreement is intended to be a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555 under the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement,” within the meaning of Section 561 under the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 10.13 Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) The Administrative Agent, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall be express third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
