ARTICLE II

PURCHASE OF ELIGIBLE ASSETS

Section 2.1 Purchase and Sale.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, from time to time during the Facility Period (but at no time thereafter) and at the written request of the Seller, the parties hereto may enter into transactions in which the Seller transfers Eligible Assets to the Purchaser in a sales transaction against the transfer of funds by the Purchaser representing the Purchase Price for such Purchased Assets, with a simultaneous agreement by the Purchaser to transfer to the Seller and the Seller to repurchase such Purchased Assets in a repurchase transaction at a date certain not later than the Facility Maturity Date, against the transfer of funds by the Seller representing the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets. Each such transaction shall be referred to herein as a “Transaction” and shall be governed by this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Transaction Mechanics; Related Matters.

(a) From time to time during the Facility Period, the Purchaser may in its discretion purchase from the Seller the Seller’s rights and interests (but none of its obligations) under certain Eligible Assets; provided, however, (i) at no time shall the aggregate Purchase Price of the outstanding Transactions and any proposed Transactions exceed the Availability or the Maximum Amount, (ii) at no time shall the Purchaser enter into Transactions after the Facility Period and (iii) in no event shall a Transaction be entered into when any Margin Deficit exists, any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or when the Repurchase Date for such Transaction would be later than the Facility Maturity Date. The Seller shall request a Transaction by delivering to the Purchaser (with a copy to the Custodian), via Electronic Transmission (to the extent available in such form and otherwise by overnight delivery), a Seller Asset Schedule, a draft Confirmation, an Underwriting Package and any other information and documents reasonably requested (orally or in writing) by the Purchaser in its discretion. The Purchaser shall have a commercially reasonable period of time not to exceed five (5) Business Days from the Business Day on which the Purchaser is in receipt of the draft Confirmation, the Seller Asset Schedule, the Underwriting Package and any supplemental requests relating to the proposed Eligible Assets.

(b) The Purchaser shall notify the Seller in writing of the Purchaser’s tentative approval (and proposed Purchase Price for each Eligible Asset) or the final disapproval of any proposed Eligible Asset within a commercially reasonable time not to exceed five (5) Business Days from the Business Day on which the Purchaser is in receipt of the documents and materials described in Subsection 2.2(a). Unless the Purchaser notifies the Seller in writing of the Purchaser’s approval of such proposed Eligible Asset within the applicable period, the Purchaser shall be deemed not to have approved the purchase of such proposed Eligible Asset.

(c) Provided that the Purchaser has tentatively agreed to purchase the Eligible Assets described in the draft Confirmation and the proposed Purchase Price is acceptable to the Seller, the Seller shall forward to the Purchaser, via Electronic Transmission, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the requested Purchase Date a completed and executed Confirmation with respect to each Transaction, substantially in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, upon receipt of the Confirmation, the Purchaser may, in its discretion, agree to enter into the requested Transaction with respect to an Eligible Asset, with such additional terms, conditions and requirements contained in the Confirmation as the Purchaser may require in its discretion (if additional terms, conditions or requirements are required by the Purchaser, the Seller shall include such terms, conditions and/or requirements in the Confirmation to the extent it approves of same, and provide a re-executed Confirmation to the Purchaser), and the Purchaser’s agreement to purchase the Eligible Asset on the terms, conditions and requirements as the Purchaser may require in its discretion shall be evidenced by the Purchaser’s execution of the Confirmation. Any Confirmation executed by the Purchaser shall be deemed to have been received by the Seller on the date actually received by the Seller.

(d) Upon receipt of a copy of the Confirmation executed by the Purchaser, (i) the Seller shall release or cause to be released to the Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, (1) in the case of a single Non–Table Funded Purchased Asset, no later than 1:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day (for more than one (1) Non–Table Funded Purchased Asset, two (2) Business Days) prior to the requested Purchase Date, and, (2) in the case of a Table Funded Purchased Asset, no later than 1:00 p.m. three (3) Business Days following the applicable Purchase Date, the Mortgage Asset File pertaining to each Eligible Asset to be purchased by the Purchaser, and (ii) the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian, in connection with the applicable delivery under clause (i) above, a Custodial Identification Certificate and a completed Mortgage Asset File Checklist required under Section 3.2 of the Custodial Agreement.

(e) Each Confirmation, together with this Agreement, shall constitute conclusive evidence of the terms agreed between the Purchaser and the Seller with respect to the Transaction to which the Confirmation relates, and the Seller’s acceptance of the related proceeds shall, to the extent the Confirmation is not for any reason executed by the Seller, constitute the Seller’s agreement to the terms of such Confirmation. It is the intention of the parties that each Confirmation shall not be separate from this Agreement but shall be made a part of this Agreement. In the event that any terms or conditions of any Confirmation are inconsistent, or in direct conflict, with this Agreement, the terms of such Confirmation shall prevail; provided, however, such Confirmation and this Agreement shall be construed to be cumulative to the extent possible.

(f) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the term of this Agreement, the Seller may sell to the Purchaser, repurchase from the Purchaser and resell to the Purchaser Eligible Assets hereunder; provided, however, the Seller may not substitute any Eligible Asset for any Purchased Asset.

(g) Pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian shall deliver to the Purchaser and the Seller by 1:00 p.m. on the Purchase Date for each Non–Table Funded Purchased Asset a Trust Receipt (along with a completed Mortgage Asset File Checklist attached thereto) and an Asset Schedule and Exception Report with respect to the Eligible Assets that the Seller has requested the Purchaser purchase on such Purchase Date. With respect to each Table Funded Purchased Asset, the Seller shall cause the Bailee to deliver to the Custodian, with a copy to the Purchaser, no later than 1:00 p.m. on the Purchase Date, by Electronic Transmission, copies of the related Basic Mortgage Asset Documents, a fully executed Bailee Agreement, a Bailee’s Trust Receipt issued by the Bailee thereunder and such other evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser in its discretion that all documents necessary to effect a transfer of the Eligible Assets to the Purchaser have been delivered to Bailee. With respect to each Table Funded Purchased Asset, the Custodian shall deliver to the Purchaser with a copy to the Seller a Table Funded Trust Receipt no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Purchase Date, which receipt and all other documents delivered to the Bailee shall be acceptable to the Purchaser in its discretion. In the case of a Table Funded Purchased Asset, no later than 3:00 p.m. on the second (2nd) Business Day following the Custodian’s receipt of the related Mortgage Loan Documents comprising the Mortgage Asset File, the Custodian shall deliver to the Purchaser a Trust Receipt (along with a completed Mortgage Asset File Checklist attached thereto) certifying its receipt of the documents required to be delivered pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, together with an Asset Schedule and Exception Report relating to the Basic Mortgage Asset Documents, with any Exceptions identified by the Custodian as of the date and time of delivery of such Asset Schedule and Exception Report. The Custodian shall deliver to the Purchaser an Asset Schedule and Exception Report relating to all of the Mortgage Loan Documents within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the Mortgage Asset Files.

(h) On the Purchase Date for each Eligible Asset to be purchased on such date, and provided the requirements set forth in this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents are satisfied, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Purchaser of a Trust Receipt pursuant to Subsection 2.2(g) of this Agreement, ownership of the Purchased Assets shall be transferred to the Purchaser (subject to the terms of this Agreement) against the simultaneous transfer of the lesser of (A) Purchase Price (or such lesser amount requested by the Seller) and (B) the Availability to the Seller not later than 5:00 p.m. on such date. The Seller hereby sells, transfers, conveys and assigns to the Purchaser all the right, title and interest (but none of the obligations) of the Seller in and to the Purchased Assets and the other Purchased Items together with all right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any related Purchased Items (subject to the terms of this Agreement).

(i) The Seller shall repurchase the Purchased Assets by no later than 3:00 p.m. on the Repurchase Date. On a Repurchase Date, termination of a Transaction will be effected by transfer to the Seller or its designee of the Purchased Assets after the Purchaser receives the Repurchase Price for the Purchased Asset. In connection with the termination of a Transaction, any Income in respect of any Purchased Assets received by the Purchaser and not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, the Seller pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be netted against the Repurchase Price by the Purchaser. To the extent a net amount is owed to one party, the other party shall pay such amount to such party.

Section 2.3 Optional Repurchases.

The Seller may, upon two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice or such shorter period as the Purchaser may agree in its discretion (such notice to be received by the Purchaser no later than 5:00 p.m. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on such day) to the Purchaser, reduce the aggregate Repurchase Price of all Purchased Assets (or, prior to an Event of Default, any portion of all Purchased Assets or any individual Purchased Asset) currently outstanding by remitting (1) to the Collection Account cash in the amount of the principal reduction plus accrued and unpaid Price Differential and any related Breakage Costs owed in connection therewith and (2) to the Purchaser instructions to reduce such Repurchase Price, provided that (A) in connection with such reduction the Seller shall comply with the terms of any related Interest Rate Protection Agreement requiring that the Interest Rate Protection Agreement be terminated in whole or in part as the result of any such reduction of the Repurchase Price and the Seller has paid all amounts due to the applicable parties in connection with any such termination and (B) after giving effect to such reduction, there shall continue to exist an asset mix acceptable to the Purchaser in its discretion.

Section 2.4 Payment of Price Differential.

(a) Notwithstanding that the Purchaser and the Seller intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to the Purchaser of the Purchased Assets, the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser the accreted value of the Price Differential of each Transaction on each Payment Date. The Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller, via Electronic Transmission, notice of the Price Differential due (along with other amounts owed and to be paid under Section 2.6) on or prior to the second (2nd) Business Day preceding each Payment Date; provided, however, the Purchaser’s failure to deliver such notice on a timely basis shall not affect the Seller’s or any other Person’s obligation to pay such amounts. If the Seller fails to pay all or any part of the Price Differential and the other amounts due by 11:00 a.m., Charlotte, North Carolina time, on the Payment Date, the Seller shall be obligated to pay to the Purchaser (in addition to, and together with, the Price Differential and the other amounts due) interest on the unpaid amounts at a rate per annum equal to the Post–Default Rate (the “Late Payment Fee”) until the unpaid amounts and Late Payment Fee are received in full by the Purchaser. If the Price Differential includes any estimated Price Differential, the Purchaser shall recalculate such Price Differential after the Payment Date and, if necessary, make adjustments to the Price Differential amount due on the following Payment Date.

(b) If the Seller repurchases Purchased Assets on any day prior to the last day of a Eurodollar Period or if the Seller repurchases Purchased Assets on any day that is not a Repurchase Date for such Purchased Assets, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold the Purchaser harmless from any Breakage Costs for the remainder of the Eurodollar Period. The Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller a statement setting forth the amount and basis of determination of any Breakage Costs in such detail as determined in good faith by the Purchaser to be adequate, it being agreed that such statement and the method of its calculation shall be conclusive and binding upon the Seller absent manifest error. This Subsection 2.4(b) shall survive termination of this Agreement and the repurchase of all Purchased Assets subject to Transactions hereunder.

Section 2.5 Margin Account Maintenance.

If at any time the Purchaser determines (based on such factors as the Purchaser determines to rely on in its discretion, including, but not limited to, a credit analysis of the Underlying Mortgaged Properties and the current market conditions for the Purchased Asset) that the Margin Base (as determined by the Purchaser in its discretion) on such date for all of the Purchased Assets (as determined by the Purchaser in its discretion) is less than the aggregate Purchase Price for all such outstanding Transactions (the aggregate amount of such difference being, a “Margin Deficit”), then the Purchaser may by delivery of a Margin Deficit Notice to the Seller require the Seller to transfer to the Purchaser cash or Eligible Assets with an Asset Value in the amount of the Margin Deficit by no later than the Margin Correction Deadline so that, after giving effect to such payments and/or transfers, the Margin Deficit is eliminated in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request of the Seller, the Purchaser may extend the Margin Correction Deadline by one (1) additional Business Day provided all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) no Eligible Asset in respect of which such repurchase or payment is to be made is in any monetary or non–monetary default or is otherwise a Delinquent Mortgage Asset, (iii) the Seller is making diligent and good faith efforts to effect the necessary repurchase or payment (including, without limitation, by selling or financing the Eligible Assets in respect of which such repurchase or payment is to be made, calling capital that is available to be drawn under existing equity contribution agreements (if any) and/or raising new equity capital), (iv) no cash flow shall be distributed in any manner by the Seller except to the Purchaser (and the Guarantor and all other Repurchase Parties shall not be entitled to, and shall not receive, from the Seller any fees, compensation or other payments of any kind until all repurchases and payments necessary to be made in satisfaction of the Margin Deficit shall have been completed) and (v) no additional Margin Deficit Notice is delivered by the Purchaser, or if any such notice is delivered, all transfers, repurchases and payments to be made in satisfaction thereof are made by the applicable Margin Correction Deadline applicable thereto. All cash transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be deposited in the Collection Account and shall be attributed to such Transaction or Transactions as the Purchaser shall determine in its discretion. Transfers of Eligible Assets to the Purchaser under this Section 2.5 shall be subject to the same conditions and requirements that are applicable to the transfers of Eligible Assets under Section 2.2 and other provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the rights of the Purchaser under this Section 2.5 to require the elimination of the Margin Deficit may also be exercised whenever such a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any single or multiple Transaction hereunder (calculated without regard to any other Transactions outstanding under this Agreement) where the Purchaser has reduced the Asset Value of one (1) or more Purchased Asset due to any matter described in the proviso to the definition of Asset Value. Any cash transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be held by the Purchaser as Cash Collateral and, unless otherwise determined by the Purchaser in its discretion, shall not be applied to reduce the outstanding Purchase Price of any Purchased Asset until the Payment Date following receipt of the Cash Collateral. The Purchaser’s election, in its discretion, not to deliver a Margin Deficit Notice at any time there is a Margin Deficit shall not waive the Margin Deficit or in any way limit or impair the Purchaser’s right to deliver a Margin Deficit Notice at any time the same or any other Margin Deficit exists. The Purchaser’s rights under this Section 2.5 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other right of the Purchaser under this Agreement or Applicable Law. If the Margin Deficit is not satisfied by the Margin Correction Deadline, it shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement and the Purchaser shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, the right to liquidate any and all Purchased Assets and Purchased Items and any proceeds therefrom will be applied in the Purchaser’s discretion to certain Purchased Assets or reduce the Purchase Price with respect to all outstanding Transactions on a pro rata basis.

Section 2.6 Income Payments.

The Purchaser shall be entitled to receive for application in accordance with this Agreement an amount equal to all Income and Cash Collateral, which amounts shall be deposited by the Seller, each Servicer, each PSA Servicer, any counterparty under an Interest Rate Protection Agency and all other applicable Persons, as applicable, into the Collection Account. The Seller hereby agrees to instruct each Servicer, each PSA Servicer, each counterparty under any other Interest Rate Protection Agreement and all other applicable Persons to transfer all Income in accordance with Subsection 5.1(e) of this Agreement, each of whom shall hold any funds so received pending application pursuant to the following sentence. On each Payment Date, any amounts received by the Purchaser and deposited to the Collection Account since the immediately preceding Payment Date shall be applied as follows: FIRST, to the extent not paid, to the payment of all outstanding fees, costs and expenses due to the Custodian under the Custodial Fee Letter; SECOND, to the payment of all fees, costs, expenses and advances then due to the Purchaser pursuant to the Repurchase Documents, other than the items covered in THIRD through EIGHTH; THIRD, to the payment of outstanding Late Payment Fees and Price Differential at the Post-Default Rate; FOURTH, to the payment of accrued and unpaid Price Differential on the Purchased Assets then due to the Purchaser for the current and any prior Payment Dates; FIFTH, to the extent not previously paid by the Seller, to pay the Repurchase Price for Purchased Assets then subject to a request to repurchase in accordance with the terms of Section 2.3 of this Agreement; SIXTH, without limiting the Seller’s obligations to cure Margin Deficits in a timely manner in accordance with Section 2.5 of this Agreement, to the Purchaser for the payment of any Margin Deficit outstanding; SEVENTH, to the extent any Income or other payments or amounts includes payments or prepayments of principal on the underlying Purchased Assets (including, without limitation, proceeds from insurance and/or condemnation and recoveries from liquidation or foreclosure), such payments shall be applied to reduce the Purchase Price outstanding for the related Transaction or, in the Purchaser’s discretion, the aggregate Repurchase Price outstanding; EIGHTH, to the payment of Breakage Costs, if any, Indemnified Amounts, if any, Increased Costs, if any, Taxes, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, Due Diligence Costs, if any, and all other amounts then due and owing to the Purchaser, any Affected Party or any other Person pursuant to the Repurchase Documents; and NINTH, the remainder to the Seller, for such purposes as the Seller shall determine in its discretion, subject to the other requirements of the Repurchase Documents; provided, however, that if the Facility Maturity Date has occurred or a Margin Deficit, Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no amounts shall be transferred to the Seller but, instead, such amounts shall be retained by the Purchaser and applied in reduction of the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event any Borrower Reserve Payments are deposited into the Collection Account, such Borrower Reserve Payments shall, upon written request of the Seller, be promptly transferred from the Collection Account to the Operating Account for the Seller to transfer into the appropriate escrow or reserve accounts.

Section 2.7 Payment, Transfer and Custody.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts to be paid or deposited by the Seller hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 3:00 p.m. on the day when due in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds and without deduction, set–off or counterclaim to the Purchaser’s Account and if not received before such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. The Seller shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, pay to the Purchaser interest on any amounts not paid when due hereunder or under the Repurchase Documents at the Post Default Rate, payable on demand; provided, however, that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Such interest shall be for the account of, and distributed to, the Purchaser. All computations of interest, Price Differential and fees hereunder or under the other Repurchase Documents shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed. The Seller acknowledges that it has no rights of withdrawal from the foregoing Purchaser’s Account or from the Collection Account. Funds in the Collection Account may be invested at the direction of the Purchaser in Permitted Investments for the benefit of the Purchaser.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of the Price Differential or any fee payable hereunder or under the Repurchase Documents.

(c) If any Transaction requested by the Seller and approved in writing by the Purchaser pursuant to Sections 2.2 or 2.3 is not, for any reason, made or effectuated, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by the Purchaser including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits, net of anticipated profits, if any, in the reemployment of such funds in the manner determined by the Purchaser in its discretion), cost and expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Purchaser to fund or maintain such Transaction.

(d) Any Mortgage Asset Files not delivered to the Purchaser or its designee (including the Custodian) are and shall be held in trust by the Seller or its designee for the benefit of the Purchaser as the owner thereof. The Seller or its agent shall maintain a copy of the Mortgage Asset File and the originals of the Mortgage Asset File not delivered to the Purchaser or its agent (including the Custodian). The possession of the Mortgage Asset File by the Seller or its agent is at the will of the Purchaser for the sole purpose of servicing the related Purchased Asset, and such retention and possession by the Seller or its agent is in a custodial capacity only. Each Mortgage Asset File retained or held by the Seller or its agent shall be segregated on the Seller’s books and records from the other assets of the Seller or its agent, and the books and records of the Seller or its designee shall be marked appropriately to reflect clearly the sale of the related Purchased Asset to the Purchaser. The Seller or its agent shall release its custody of the Mortgage Asset File only in accordance with written instructions from the Purchaser, unless such release is required as incidental to the servicing of the Purchased Assets or is in connection with a repurchase of any Purchased Asset by the Seller, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Custodial Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, all Repurchase Price and all other Obligations shall be paid in full on or before the Facility Maturity Date.

Section 2.8 Hypothecation or Pledge of Purchased Assets.

Title to all Purchased Items shall pass to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Items subject to the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Purchaser from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Items or otherwise selling, pledging, syndicating, repledging, transferring, hypothecating or rehypothecating the Purchased Items, all on terms that the Purchaser may determine in its discretion subject; however, to the Purchaser’s obligations to apply Income and reconvey the Purchased Assets to the Seller in accordance with the terms hereof. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate the Purchaser to segregate any Purchased Items transferred to the Purchaser by the Seller. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Purchaser from causing Purchased Items purchased hereunder to be transferred or re-allocated to one or more other facilities in its discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser shall reconvey, without recourse, representation or warranty, the Purchased Items to the Seller free and clear of all Liens created by the Purchaser, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.9 Fees.

(a) To the extent not separately paid by the Seller, the Price Differential and all other fees and amounts payable under the Repurchase Documents shall be paid to the Purchaser from the Collection Account to the extent funds are available therefor on each Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.6.

(b) To the extent not separately paid by the Seller, the Custodian’s fees and expenses shall be paid to the Custodian from the Collection Account to the extent funds are available on each Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.6.

(c) The Seller shall pay to Moore & Van Allen PLLC, as counsel to the Purchaser, on the Closing Date, its estimated reasonable estimated fees and out–of–pocket expenses in immediately available funds and shall pay all additional reasonable fees and out–of–pocket expenses of Moore & Van Allen PLLC (including fees and expenses incurred in reviewing proposed Mortgage Assets for purchase by the Purchaser) within ten (10) days after receiving an invoice for such amounts.

Section 2.10 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality.

(a) If either (i) the introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, or (ii) the compliance by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) shall (1) subject the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party to any Tax (except for Taxes on the overall net income of the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party), duty or other charge with respect to any ownership interest in the Purchased Items or the Pledged Collateral, or any right to enter into Transactions hereunder, or on any payment made hereunder or under the other Repurchase Documents, (2) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including, without limitation, any reserve requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve requirement, if any, included in the determination of the Price Differential), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the amount of, or credit extended by, the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party or (3) impose any other condition affecting the ownership interest in the Purchased Items conveyed to the Purchaser hereunder, the Pledged Collateral or the Purchaser’s and/or any other Affected Party’s rights hereunder or under the other Repurchase Documents, the result of which is to increase the cost to the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, then within ten (10) days after demand by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Seller shall pay directly to the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party for such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.

(b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request or (ii) compliance by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or agency (whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under the other Repurchase Documents or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a level below that which the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party to be material, then from time to time, within ten (10) days after demand by the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Seller shall pay directly to the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party for such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, any interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board shall constitute an adaptation, change, request or directive subject to this Subsection 2.10(b).

(c) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.10, the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party making a claim under this Section 2.10 shall submit to the Seller a written description as to such additional or increased cost or reduction and the calculation thereof, which written description shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

(d) If the Purchaser and/or any other Affected Party shall notify the Seller that a Eurodollar Disruption Event as described in clause (a) of the definition of “Eurodollar Disruption Event” has occurred, all Transactions in respect of which the Price Differential accrues at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall immediately be converted into Transactions in respect of which the Price Differential accrues at the Base Rate.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Purchaser shall have, with respect to the security interest in the Purchased Items granted pursuant to Section 8.1, and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, all rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC and other Applicable Law.

Section 8.4 Waiver of Certain Laws.

Each of the Seller and the Guarantors agree, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Purchased Items may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Purchased Items or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Seller and the Guarantors, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have any of the Properties or assets constituting the Purchased Items marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Purchaser or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Purchased Items as an entirety or in such parcels as the Purchaser or such court may determine.

Section 8.5 Purchaser’s Duty of Care.

Except as provided in the Repurchase Documents, the Purchaser’s (or, on its behalf, the Custodian) sole duty with respect to the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and any other collateral for the Facility shall be to use reasonable care in the custody, use, operation and preservation of the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and any other collateral for the Facility in its possession or control. The Purchaser shall incur no liability to the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor or any other Person for any act of government, act of God or other such destruction in whole or in part or negligence or wrongful act of custodians or agents selected by and supervised by the Purchaser with reasonable care, or the Purchaser’s failure to provide adequate protection or insurance for the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and the other collateral for the Facility. The Purchaser shall have no obligation to take any action to preserve any rights of the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Repurchase Party in any of the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and the other collateral for the Facility against prior parties, and the Seller hereby agrees to take such action. The Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor shall defend the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and the other collateral for the Facility against all such claims and demands of all Persons (other than claims and demands resulting from interests created by the Purchaser), at all times, as are adverse to the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall have no obligation to realize upon any Purchased Item, the Pledged Collateral or the other collateral for the Facility, except through proper application of any distributions with respect to the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and the other collateral for the Facility made directly to the Purchaser or its agent(s). So long as the Purchaser (or the Custodian, on the Purchaser’s behalf) shall act in good faith in its handling of the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and the other collateral for the Facility, each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor waives or is deemed to have waived the defense of impairment of the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral and the other collateral for the Facility by the Purchaser and the Custodian.

(i) At the option of the Purchaser, exercised by written notice to the 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 the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor or any other Repurchase Party), the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder, if it has not already occurred, shall be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately cancelled) and the Funding Expiration Date and Facility Maturity Date shall be deemed to have occurred. The Purchaser shall (except upon the occurrence of an Insolvency of the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor or any other Repurchase Party) give notice to the Seller of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

(ii) If the Purchaser exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in Subsection 10.2(a)(i),

(A) (1) the Seller’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Items, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date, and, without duplication, to pay the Aggregate Unpaids and all other Obligations or other amounts owed by the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Person hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (2) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by the Purchaser and applied to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price, the Aggregate Unpaids and any other Obligations or other amounts owed by the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Person hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents, and (3) the Seller shall immediately deliver to the Purchaser any Purchased Items subject to such Transactions then in the Seller’s possession or control; and

(B) all Income actually received by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.6 (excluding any Late Payment Fees and other Price Differential at the Post–Default Rate) shall be applied to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and Aggregate Unpaids and any Obligations and other amounts owed by the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Person hereunder or the other Repurchase Documents, in such order as the Purchaser shall determine in its discretion.

(iii) Upon the occurrence of one or more Events of Default, the Purchaser shall have the right to obtain physical possession of the Servicing Records (subject to the provisions of the Custodial Agreement), the Servicing Files, the Servicing Agreements and all other files of the Seller or any third party acting for the Seller relating to the Purchased Items and all documents relating to the Purchased Items which are then or may thereafter come into the possession of the Seller or any third party acting for the Seller, and the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser such assignments as the Purchaser shall request (all of the foregoing at the expense of the Seller), and the Purchaser shall have the right to appoint any Person to act as the Servicer for the Purchased Assets.

(iv) In the event the Seller has not repurchased all Purchased Items, the Purchaser may (A) complete any assignments, allonges, endorsements, powers or other documents or instruments executed in blank, (B) immediately sell, without demand or further notice of any kind, at a public or private sale and at such price or prices as the Purchaser may deem reasonably satisfactory any or all Purchased Items subject to such Transactions hereunder and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price, the Aggregate Unpaids, the Obligations and any other amounts owed by the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Person hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents, and/or (C) in its discretion, elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Items, to give the Seller credit for such Purchased Items in an amount equal to the Market Value (determined by the Purchaser in its discretion) of the Purchased Items against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price, the Aggregate Unpaids, the Obligations and any other amounts owing by the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Person hereunder and under the other Repurchase Documents. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Items shall be applied first to the costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the Event of Default; second to the costs of related covering and/or related hedging transactions; third to the Repurchase Price; fourth to the Aggregate Unpaids, the Obligations and any other amounts owed by the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and any other Person hereunder or under the other Repurchase Documents; and fifth to the Seller.

(v) The Seller agrees that the Purchaser may obtain an injunction, an order of specific performance or other equitable relief to compel the Seller to fulfill any of its obligations as set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Article X, if the Seller fails or refuses to perform its obligations as set forth herein or therein.

(vi) The Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser, payable as and when incurred by the Purchaser, for (A) the amount of all actual out–of–pocket expenses, including legal or other expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default, and (B) all costs incurred in connection with hedging or covering transactions.

(vii) The Purchaser shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights and remedies otherwise available to it under any other agreement, Applicable Law or the UCC.

(b) The Purchaser may exercise one or more of the remedies available to the Purchaser immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter without notice to the Seller. All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that the Purchaser may have.

(c) The Purchaser may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor hereby expressly waives any defenses the Seller, any of the Guarantors and the Pledgor might otherwise have to require the Purchaser to enforce its rights by judicial process. Each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) the Seller, any of the Guarantors or the Pledgor might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Purchased Items, or from any other election of remedies. The Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor recognize 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) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser for interest on any amounts owing by the Seller hereunder, from the date the Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by the Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of the Purchaser’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by the Seller to the Purchaser under this Subsection 10.2(d) shall accrue interest at a rate equal to the Post–Default Rate.

(e) In addition to the rights under this Section 10.2, upon an Event of Default the Purchaser shall no longer be obligated to enter into any additional Transactions pursuant to any outstanding Confirmation and the Purchaser shall have the following additional rights if an Event of Default occurs:

(i) The Purchaser and the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor agree and acknowledge that the Purchased Items constitute collateral that may decline rapidly in value. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall not be required to give notice to the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor or any other Person prior to exercising any remedy in respect of an Event of Default. If no prior notice is given, the Purchaser shall give notice to the Seller of the remedies effected by the Purchaser promptly thereafter. The Purchaser shall act in good faith in exercising its rights pursuant to this Subsection 10.2(e).

(ii) The Purchaser may, in its discretion, elect to hold any Purchased Item for its own account and earn the related interest on the full face amount thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Repurchase Documents to the contrary, neither the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor nor any other Person shall be permitted to cure an Event of Default after the acceleration of any of the Obligations.

(a) The Seller agrees to hold the Purchaser, the Affected Parties and their Affiliates and the Purchaser, the Affected Parties and their Affiliates’ officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, attorneys, Affiliates and advisors (each an “Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and indemnify any Indemnified Party against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs, expenses, penalties or fines of any kind that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party (collectively, the “Indemnified Amounts”) in any way relating to, arising out of or resulting from (i) this Agreement, the Repurchase Documents, the Mortgage Loan Documents, any Purchased Items or any transaction or Transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or any amendment, supplement, extension or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the Repurchase Documents, the Mortgage Loan Documents, any Purchased Items or any transaction or Transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Mortgage Asset, any Purchased Item or the Pledged Collateral, (iii) any violation of, alleged violation, non–compliance with or liability under any Applicable Law (including, without limitation, violation of securities laws), (iv) ownership of the Repurchase Documents, the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral, any other collateral for the Facility, the Underlying Mortgaged Property, any other related Property or collateral or any part thereof or any interest therein or receipt of any Income or rents, (v) any failure on the part of the Seller, any of the Guarantors or the Pledgor to perform or comply with any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or the Repurchase Documents, (vi) any Taxes including, without limitation, any Taxes attributable to the execution, delivery, filing or recording of any Repurchase Document, any Mortgage Loan Document or any memorandum of any of the foregoing, (vii) any Lien or claim arising on or against the Underlying Mortgaged Property, any other related Property or collateral, the Pledged Collateral, the Purchased Items or any part thereof under any Applicable Law or any liability asserted against the Purchaser with respect thereto, (viii)  any civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC against, and all reasonable costs and expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with the defense thereof, by any Indemnified Party as a result conduct of the Seller the Pledgor, any of the Guarantors or any other Repurchase Party that violates any sanction enforced by OFAC, (xix) any violation (or alleged violation) or non–compliance (or alleged non–compliance) with Environmental Laws, the existence, correction or removal of any Materials of Environmental Concern, any Remedial Work and any Release in any way affecting any Underlying Mortgaged Property or any other Property (x) the Seller’s, any of the Guarantor’s, the Pledgor’s and or any other Repurchase Party’s conduct, activities, actions and/or inactions in connection with, relating to or arising out of any of the foregoing in clauses of this Subsection 11.1(a), that, in each case, results from anything other than any Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by an Indemnified Party in connection with any Purchased Item for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Purchased Item, the 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 of liability whatsoever of the account debtor, obligor or Borrower thereunder arising out of a breach by the Seller, any of the Guarantors, the Pledgor or any other Repurchase Party 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, obligor or Borrower or its successors from the Seller, any of the Guarantors, the Pledgor or any other Repurchase Party. The Seller also agrees to reimburse an Indemnified Party as and when billed by such Indemnified Party for all such Indemnified Party’s costs, expenses and fees incurred in connection with the enforcement or the preservation of such Indemnified Party’s rights under this Agreement, the Repurchase Documents, the Mortgage Loan Documents and any transaction or Transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Subsection 11.1(a) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Seller, any of the Guarantors and/or the Pledgor or any of their officers, directors, shareholders, employees or creditors, an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any transaction contemplated hereby is consummated.

(b) Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 11.1 shall be paid by the Seller to the Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following such Person’s demand therefor. For the avoidance of doubt, an Indemnified Party may seek payment of any Indemnified Amount at any time and regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists or is continuing. If for any reason the indemnification provided in this Section 11.1 is unavailable to the Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Seller shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Seller on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Indemnification under Section 11.1 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any tax consequences to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder, including the effect of such tax or refund on the amount of tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party. The obligations of the Seller under this Section 11.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

The Seller shall cause this Agreement, all amendments hereto and/or all financing statements and continuation statements and any other necessary documents covering the right, title and interest of the Purchaser to the Purchased Items to be promptly recorded, registered and filed, and at all times to be kept recorded, registered and filed, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve and protect the right, title and interest of the Purchaser hereunder to all property comprising the Purchased Items.

The Seller shall execute any and all documents reasonably required to fulfill the intent of this Section 13.12. The Seller agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Transactions hereunder and the security interest granted in the Purchased Items, or to enable the Purchaser to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder, under any Repurchase Document or under any Purchased Item.

This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

Section 13.13 Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Purchaser, the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor shall maintain and shall cause each of its officers, directors and employees to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement and all information with respect to the other parties, including all information regarding the Purchased Items and each party’s business obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except that each such party and its officers, directors and employees may (i) disclose such information to its external accountants, attorneys, investors, potential investors, Affiliates and the agents of such Persons (“Excepted Persons”); provided, however, that each Excepted Person shall, as a condition to any such disclosure, agree for the benefit of the Purchaser, the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor that such information shall be used solely in connection with such Excepted Person’s evaluation of, or relationship with, the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and the other Repurchase Parties, (ii) disclose the existence of the Agreement and the Repurchase Documents, but not the financial terms thereof, (iii) disclose such information as is required by Applicable Law, and (iv) disclose the Agreement, the Repurchase Documents and such other information in any suit, action, proceeding or investigation (whether in law or in equity or pursuant to arbitration) involving any of the Repurchase Documents for the purpose of defending itself, reducing its liability or protecting or exercising any of its claims, rights, remedies or interests under or in connection with any of the Repurchase Documents. It is understood that the financial terms that may not be disclosed except in compliance with this Subsection 13.13(a) include, without limitation, all fees and other pricing terms, all Events of Default and priority of payment provisions.

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction (either in its entirety or as applied to any Person, fact, circumstance, action or inaction), the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction or as applied to any Person, fact, circumstance, action or inaction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(c) This Agreement and any other Repurchase Document executed in connection herewith contain the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

Section 13.15 Seller’s Waiver of Setoff.

Neither the Seller, any of the Guarantors nor the Pledgor may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer in any way any of its rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Purchaser in its discretion and any attempt by the Seller, any of the Guarantors or the Pledgor to assign, delegate or otherwise transfer in any way any of its rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement and/or the other Repurchase Documents without the prior written consent of the Purchaser in its discretion shall be null and void. The Purchaser may sell, transfer, assign, pledge or grant participation interests to any Person in all or any portion of any Transaction, its interest in all or any portion of any Purchased Item and/or any other interest of the Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents (any such entity, a “Transferee”); provided, that (i) the Purchaser shall give concurrent notice to the Seller of any assignment (the failure to give such notice, however, shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such assignment) and (ii) any assignment effected pursuant to this Section 13.16 shall be in respect of Purchased Assets with a minimum Purchase Price of $5,000,000 (other than in the case of (x) an assignment of all of the interests then held by the Purchaser (or a Transferee), (y) a transfer to an Affiliate of the Purchaser or a Transferee), or (z) an Event of Default).

Section 13.17 Heading and Exhibits.

The headings herein are for purposes of references only and shall not otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision hereof. The schedules and exhibits attached hereto and referred to herein shall constitute a part of this Agreement and are incorporated into this Agreement for all purposes.

Section 13.18 Single Agreements.

The Purchaser, the Seller and the Guarantors 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. Each of the Seller and the Guarantors agree (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, and (ii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by it or others on its behalf in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

Section 13.19 Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections.

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Exchange Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) will not provide protection to the other parties with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

(b) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the Exchange Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other parties with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

(c) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable; and

(d) in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is an “insured depository institution” as that term is defined in Section 1813(c)(2) of Title 12 of the Code, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Savings Association Insurance Fund or the Bank Insurance Fund, as applicable.

Section 13.20 Intent.

(a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “Repurchase Agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code (except insofar as the type of Purchased Assets subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable) and a “Securities Contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code (except insofar as the type of Purchased Assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(b) The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “Insured Depository Institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “Qualified Financial Contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of Purchased Assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(c) It is understood and agreed that this Agreement constitutes a “Master Netting Agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code.

(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 or regulations promulgated thereunder).

(e) It is understood that any party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 10.2 is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555, 559 and 561 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

Section 13.21 Periodic Due Diligence Review.

Each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor acknowledges that the Purchaser has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Items and the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and the other Repurchase Parties for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, duties and specifications made hereunder, under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise, and each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor agrees that, upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to the Seller, the Guarantors or the Pledgor, as applicable, the Purchaser or its authorized representatives shall be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the books and records of the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor and the other Repurchase Parties, the Mortgage Asset Files, the Servicing Files and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral or the other collateral for the Facility in the possession or under the control of the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor, any other Repurchase Party and/or the Custodian. Each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor also shall make available to the Purchaser a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Seller, the Guarantors, the Pledgor, the other Repurchase Parties, the Mortgage Asset Files, the Purchased Items, the Pledged Collateral or the other collateral for the Facility. Each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor shall also make available to the Purchaser any accountants or auditors of the Seller, the Guarantors or the Pledgor to answer any questions or provide any documents as the Purchaser may require. The Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor shall also cause each of the Servicers and PSA Servicers (to the extent permitted under the applicable Pooling and Servicing Agreement) to cooperate with the Purchaser by permitting the Purchaser to conduct due diligence reviews of files of each such Servicer and PSA Servicer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor acknowledges that the Purchaser may purchase Purchased Items from the Seller based solely upon the information provided by the Seller, the Guarantors or the Pledgor to the Purchaser in the Seller Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that the Purchaser, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Items purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Underlying Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re–generating the information used to originate such Purchased Items. The Purchaser may underwrite such Purchased Assets itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Each of the Seller, the Guarantors and the Pledgor agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing the Purchaser 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 the Seller, the Guarantors or the Pledgor. The Purchaser shall pay all out–of–pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the Purchaser’s activities pursuant to this Section 13.21 (“Due Diligence Costs”).

Section 13.22 Use of Employee Plan Assets.

If assets of an employee benefit plan subject to any provision of ERISA are intended to be used by either party hereto (the “Plan Party”) in a Transaction, the Plan Party shall so notify the other party prior to the Transaction. The Plan Party shall represent in writing to the other party that the Transaction does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or is otherwise exempt therefrom, and the other party may proceed in reliance thereon but shall not be required so to proceed. Subject to the preceding sentence, any such Transaction shall proceed only if the Seller furnishes or has furnished to the Purchaser its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition. By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Section 13.22, the Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to the Purchaser that since the date of the Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in the Seller’s financial condition which Seller has not disclosed to the Purchaser, and (ii) to agree to provide the Purchaser with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as it is a Seller in any outstanding Transaction involving a Plan Party.

Section 13.23 Time of the Essence.

Time is of the essence with respect to all obligations, duties, covenants, agreements, notices or actions or inactions of the Seller, the Guarantors and/or the Pledgor under the Repurchase Documents.

Section 13.24 Construction.

This Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents shall be construed fairly as to the parties hereto and thereto and not in favor of or against any party.
