Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may net T & I Advances from Custodial Funds representing escrow funds pursuant to Section 3.4. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to complete such verification

within thirty (30) days of receipt of such documentation from Seller. To the extent Seller subsequently recovers any Advances, Seller shall remit such recoveries to Purchaser within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall not have any obligation to reimburse Seller for any Advance or portion of any Advance except to the extent such Advance or portion of such Advance is reimbursable by or recoverable from the applicable Agency pursuant to Applicable Requirements. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not reimburse Seller for any Corporate Advances for Mortgage Loans that are less than thirty (30) days delinquent as of the Transfer Date; provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to Advances that are pending reimbursement from the related Investor as of the Transfer Date.

(e)No Investor Consent. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Purchaser shall have no obligation to make any payment under any subsection of this Section 3.3 with respect to any portion of the Servicing Rights for which an Investor has denied or not consented to Seller’s request to transfer the related Servicing Rights to Purchaser.

(f)Set-off. Seller hereby grants Purchaser a right of set-off against the Holdback Amount (or any portion thereof) against Seller’s obligations to Purchaser under this Agreement, including obligations in respect of early payoff protection, repurchase of Servicing Rights or Mortgage Loans and indemnification; provided, that Purchaser has provided Seller written notice of Seller’s failure to pay any such amounts when due (including any applicable grace or cure periods pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) and Seller has not cured such failure within five (5) Business Days of Seller’s receipt of such notice. Seller further agrees that should Purchaser reimburse itself in such manner, such reimbursement shall not act as a limitation of any other right or remedy Purchaser may have under the law or this Agreement.

(g)Prepayments. In the event that a Mortgage Loan prepays in full within ninety (90) days following the Sale Date to the extent such Mortgage Loan is in the High Pool and sixty (60) days following the Sale Date to the extent such Mortgage Loan is in the Low Pool (in either case, other than by a refinancing by Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates), Seller shall refund to Purchaser, within thirty (30) days of receipt of demand thereof by Purchaser, the portion of the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser allocable to the Servicing Rights relating to such Mortgage Loan.

(a)Within five (5) Business Days (or such earlier date required by the applicable Investor) after the Transfer Date, all related Custodial Funds and all other funds and collections in connection with the Mortgage Loans held by or on behalf of Seller or, to the extent permitted under Applicable Requirements, previously used by or on behalf of Seller (or any Prior Servicer) to make Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans and not previously reimbursed shall be remitted and delivered by Seller to Purchaser in compliance with all Applicable Requirements, provided, however, that Seller may net T & I Advances from Custodial Funds representing escrow funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall retain Custodial Funds relating to principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans in Seller’s possession as of the Transfer Date that are due in Seller’s final remittances to the Investors. If there is a deficiency in the

Custodial Funds required to satisfy the requirements to satisfy the required remittance amounts to the Investors, Purchaser shall wire an amount equal to such deficiency to Seller no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the date of Seller’s final remittances to the Investors. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to transferring the Custodial Funds to Purchaser, Seller shall fully fund the Custodial Account to take into account all prepaid principal, including prepayments in full and curtailments, and interest received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Within five (5) Business Days following the Transfer Date, Seller shall provide to Purchaser a reconciliation, as of the Transfer Date, of the Custodial Funds held and Advances outstanding as of such date.

(b)If at any time Seller or Purchaser reasonably determines that any Advances acquired by Purchaser, including Advances previously funded by or on behalf of Seller or a Prior Servicer from amounts in the Custodial Account, are not reimbursable by the applicable Agency, or the reimbursements then due thereunder are less than the amount of such non-reimbursable Advances, the Party making such determination will notify the other Party in writing and such amounts shall be paid by Seller to Purchaser in immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days.

Section III.5Certain Adjustments and Refunds. For a period of one (1) year following the payment of any portion of the Purchase Price or reimbursement for Advances, transfer of the Custodial Funds, or payment or transfer of any other amounts due under this Agreement to either Party, the Purchase Price, Advances, Custodial Funds or such other amounts are found to be in error, then within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of information sufficient to provide notice that payment is due, the Party benefiting from the error shall (i) pay an amount sufficient to correct and reconcile the Purchase Price, Advances, Custodial Funds, or such other amounts, and (ii) provide a reconciliation statement and such other documentation reasonably sufficient to satisfy the other Party (in such other Party’s exercise of its reasonable discretion) concerning the accuracy of such reconciliation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the one (1) year time restriction shall not apply to indemnification claims under Article X.

Section III.6Form of Payment to be Made. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, all payments to be made by a Party to another Party, or such other Party’s designee, shall be made by wiring immediately available funds to the accounts designated by the Party receiving the payment.

Section III.7No Waiver. No payment or acceptance of payment under this Article III (including retention of Holdback Amounts) shall constitute a waiver by Purchaser of, or otherwise limit or reduce, any of Purchaser’s other rights and remedies under this Agreement, at law, or equity, including Purchaser’s rights to indemnification or repurchase of Mortgage Loans and/or Servicing Rights, as provided in Article X.

As an inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Transaction, Seller represents and warrants as follows (it being understood that, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Article IV, each such representation and warranty is made by Seller as of the Effective Date, the Sale Date and, other than with respect to Sections 4.7, 4.9, 4.11, and 4.12, the Transfer Date, and all of the representations and warranties of Seller contained herein shall survive the Sale Date and the Transfer Date, as applicable):

Section V.1Mortgage Loans and Servicing Rights.

(a)General Compliance. Each Mortgage Loan and the related Servicing Rights conform in all material respects to Applicable Requirements, and each Mortgage Loan was eligible for sale to, insurance by, or pooling to back securities issued or guaranteed by, an Investor and applicable Agency, and/or Insurer upon such sale, issuance of insurance or pooling. Each Mortgage Loan has been originated, underwritten, closed, funded, sold, pooled and serviced in compliance with all Applicable Requirements. Seller is not otherwise in default with respect to Seller’s obligations under the applicable Servicing Agreement or Applicable Requirements. Each Servicing Agreement provides for non-recourse servicing and no Servicing Agreement contains any provisions that would reasonably be expected to impose upon the Servicer any obligations or restrictions, e.g., foreclosure or loan modification restrictions, in addition to those typically imposed upon servicers of standard Investor servicing rights that would apply to Purchaser as the transferee of the Servicing Rights.

(b)Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and Offering Information, contained in each Mortgage File, or contained in any Electronic Data File, and all other information provided by or on behalf of Seller with respect to the Servicing Rights and the related Mortgage Loans, including all information regarding Advances, is true, correct and complete in all material respects, as of the date provided or indicated therein. The Servicing Rights and the related Mortgage Loans satisfy and are in conformance with the specifications, restrictions and assumptions contained in this Agreement. Except as identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, no Mortgage Loan is a Bankruptcy Loan, Foreclosure Loan, Litigation Loan or CARES Act Forbearance Loan.

(c)Payments Current. Except as set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, all payments required to be made on or prior to the Sale Date for the Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note have been made and credited, and all monies received with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been properly accounted for, and if required under Applicable Requirements, applied.

(d)Outstanding Charges. All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the Mortgage Loan proceeds, whichever is earlier, to the day which precedes by one month the due date of the first installment of principal and interest.

(e)Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if required by Applicable Requirements, and which is contained in the Collateral Files. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification

has been approved, if required under Applicable Requirements, by an Investor and the applicable Insurer, and its terms are reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the applicable Insurer, and which assumption agreement is part of the Collateral File delivered to the Document Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

(f)No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor was a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated.

(g)Hazard Insurance. Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, all buildings or other improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a Qualified Insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located pursuant to insurance policies conforming to the requirements of the Investors. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the federal Flood Insurance Administration is in effect, which policy conforms to all Applicable Requirements. All individual insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Originator and its successors and assigns as mortgagee, and all premiums thereon have been paid. Each Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance policy at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at such Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement of such cost and expense from the Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, each Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. Each hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the related Insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of Purchaser upon the consummation of the Transaction. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of any Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission that would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either, including no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(h)Compliance with Applicable Requirements. Seller and each Originator and Prior Servicer have complied with Applicable Requirements pertaining to the Mortgage Loans and related Servicing Rights, including the federal Fair Housing Act, federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Regulation B, federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, federal Truth in Lending

Act and Regulation Z, National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, federal Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act and Regulation X, federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and state consumer credit and usury codes and laws. In addition, all Mortgage Loans have been originated with (and, in particular, the Mortgage Loan Documents contain) late fee provisions that fully comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and Applicable Requirements and that are fully enforceable by Purchaser against each Mortgagor. Each Originator and Prior Servicer was (during the period in which they held and transferred such interest) qualified to do business, and had all requisite licenses, permits and approvals, in the jurisdictions in which the applicable Mortgaged Properties are located, except where the failure to possess such qualifications, licenses, permits and approvals would not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of the Mortgage Loan Documents by Purchaser or the liability of the Purchaser.

(i)No Satisfaction of Mortgage. Each Mortgage has not been satisfied, cancelled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the related Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or, except as permitted under Applicable Requirements, in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would cause or result in any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission. Seller has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any actions if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgagor to be in default, nor has Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction of the Mortgagor.

(j)Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is a fee simple property located in the state identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit in a low-rise condominium project, or an individual unit in a planned unit development, provided, however, that any condominium project or planned unit development shall conform with an Investor requirements regarding such dwellings, and no residence or dwelling is a mobile home or a manufactured dwelling not affixed to a permanent structure or not titled as real property or otherwise not eligible under Applicable Requirements. No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial purposes. With respect to Mortgage Loans that are secured by a leasehold estate, (i) the lease is valid, in full force and effect, and conforms to all of Investor’s requirements for leasehold estates; (ii) all rents and other payments due under the lease have been paid; (iii) the lessee is not in default under any provision of the lease; (iv) the term of the lease exceeds the maturity date of the related Mortgage Loan by at least five years; and (v) the terms of the lease provide a mortgagee with an opportunity to cure any defaults.

(k)Valid First Lien. The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

(i)the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

(ii)covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the Originator of the Mortgage Loan and (A) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the Originator of the Mortgage Loan or (B) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal; and

(iii)other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the property described therein and Seller has full right to sell and assign the same to Purchaser.

(l)Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms. All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties.

(m)Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan, including any escrow for repairs or improvements, have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefore have been complied with in accordance with Applicable Requirements. All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

(n)PMI Policy. Each Mortgage Loan, if required by an Investor or Applicable Requirements, is insured as to payment defaults by a PMI Policy in the amount required, and by a Qualified Insurer, and all provisions of such PMI Policy have been and are being complied with, such PMI Policy is in full force and effect and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. There has been no event or condition which may result in the revocation, cancellation or expiration of such coverage. There are no defenses, counterclaims, or rights of set-off against Seller or Prior Servicer affecting the validity or enforceability of any PMI Policy with respect to a Mortgage Loan. Any Mortgage Loan subject to a PMI policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the PMI policy and to pay all premiums and charges in

connection therewith. No Mortgage Loan is subject to a lender paid mortgage insurance policy for which any premiums are payable as of or after the Sale Date.

(o)Title Insurance. Each Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title the form and substance of which is acceptable to an Investor, or (ii) an American Land Title Association mortgagee title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance acceptable to an Investor issued by a title insurer acceptable to an Investor, and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the related Mortgaged Property is located, insuring, subject only to the exceptions listed in Subsection (k) above, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit located in a state in which a title insurer will generally issue an endorsement, then the related title insurance policy contains an endorsement insuring the validity of the creation of the condominium form of ownership with respect to the project in which such unit is located. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such mortgagee title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. The Originator and its successors and assigns is the named insured and the sole insured of such mortgagee title insurance policy, the assignment to Purchaser of Seller’s interest in such mortgagee title insurance policy does not require the consent of or notification to the insurer (or if such consent or notification is required, such consent has been received, or such notification has been given), and such mortgagee title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will be in force and effect and will inure to the benefit of Purchaser upon the consummation of the Transaction. No claims have been made under such mortgagee title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything that would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy, including no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(p)No Defaults. Except as disclosed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and, to Seller’s knowledge, no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and neither Seller nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.

(q)No Mechanics’ Liens. To Seller’s knowledge, there are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage.

(r)Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements located on or being part of each Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building

restriction lines of such Mortgaged Property (and, if such Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, such improvements lie wholly within the project) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon such property. No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation.

(s)Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loans have an original term to maturity of not more than thirty (30) years, with interest payable in arrears on the first (1st) day of each month. No Mortgage Loan contains terms or provisions which would result in negative amortization. No Mortgage Loan is evidenced by a Mortgage Note providing for bi-weekly payments.

(t)Customary Provisions. The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial Foreclosure. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and Foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property. There is no homestead or other exemption available to a Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage.

(u)Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property. As of the Sale Date, the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law and all inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities. To the extent required by Applicable Requirements, the Mortgagor represented at the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan that the Mortgagor would occupy the Mortgaged Property as the Mortgagor’s primary residence.

(v)No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in Subsection (k) above.

(w)Deeds of Trust. In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by Purchaser to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor.

(x)Condominiums/Planned Unit Developments. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a planned unit development (other than a de minimis planned unit development) such condominium or planned unit development project meets an Investor eligibility requirements for sale to an Investor or is located in a condominium or planned unit development project that has received an Investor project approval, and the representations and

warranties required by an Investor with respect to such condominium or planned unit development have been made and remain true and correct in all respects.

(y)Due on Sale. Each Mortgage contains an enforceable provision (to the extent not prohibited by law) for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan in the event that the related Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee thereunder.

(z)No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests. The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are, or will in the future, be paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by Seller, the Mortgagor or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it contain any other similar provisions currently in effect which may constitute a “buydown” provision; no Mortgage Loan is a graduated payment loan, qualifying assumption loan or a reverse mortgage loan; no Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature.

(aa)Consolidation of Future Advances. Any advances of loan proceeds made have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. The lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first lien priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to an Investor. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.

(ab)Mortgaged Property Undamaged. There is no proceeding pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened, for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property. Except as disclosed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended or for which the Servicer would have liability. With respect to any Mortgage Loan for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in a disaster area declared by any federal or state government in the twelve (12) months prior to the Sale Date, Seller has obtained a property inspection of the Mortgaged Property conducted following the disaster event and has been in contact with the Mortgagor regarding any material damage to such property and/or hardship to the Mortgagor resulting from such disaster to the extent required by the applicable Agency and has complied with all other disaster relief requirements of the applicable Agency.

(ac)Collection and Servicing Practices. The servicing and collection practices used with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been in accordance with Applicable Requirements in all material respects.

(ad)Escrow Deposits. All Mortgage Escrow Payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for

Accordingly, in addition to any other rights and remedies that may be available to Discloser at law and in equity, Discloser shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Agreement by seeking injunctive relief, and Recipient shall not assert as defenses that an adequate remedy at law exists and/or that Discloser will not be irreparably harmed.

“Confidential Information” of a Party shall mean: (i) the terms of this Agreement, (ii) information disclosed by Discloser relating to product development strategy and activity, marketing strategy, corporate assessments and strategic plans, pricing, financial and statistical information, accounting information, identity of suppliers, software, systems, processes, formulae, inventions, discoveries, policies, guidelines, procedures, practices, disputes or litigation, (iii) confidential, proprietary or trade secret information orally disclosed by Discloser and identified as such on the date of its first disclosure, with a written summary thereof provided to Recipient within thirty (30) days of disclosure, (iv) confidential, proprietary or trade secret information disclosed by Discloser that is clearly and conspicuously identified in writing as such

at the time of its first disclosure, (v) confidential, proprietary or trade secret information disclosed by Discloser, which a reasonable person would recognize as such, (vi) information disclosed by Discloser relating to employees or contractors or customers which, if released, would cause an unlawful invasion of privacy, including, but not limited to (A) “Non Public Personal Information” as defined by Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (Public Law No. 106-102) and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto which are applicable to a Discloser with regard to the customers and consumers of a Discloser and (B) “Consumer Information,” as defined by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (Public Law No. 108-159) and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, together with any other nonpublic personal information and identifying information of or about consumers, applicants, clients or customers protected under applicable state and local law, and (vi) any compilation or summary of information or data that contains or is based on Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that (A) all Confidential Information disclosed by a Party shall be deemed to be the Confidential Information of such Party, including, but not limited to, third-party confidential, proprietary or trade secret information that such Party is obligated to protect, and (B) information shall be deemed to be disclosed by a Party if such information is disclosed by any of its partners, Affiliates, officers, employees, directors, contractors, agents or representatives or is otherwise disclosed on behalf of such Party. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Party will provide Confidential Information that is prohibited from public disclosure except in accordance with 12 C.F.R. 510.5; provided, however, that “Confidential Information” of a Party shall not include information that: (i) is or becomes generally available to the public or widely known in the mortgage industry through no fault of Recipient (or anyone acting on its behalf); (ii) was, prior to disclosure by Discloser hereunder, known to Recipient free of any obligation to keep it confidential; (iii) is subsequently disclosed to Recipient by a third party who may rightfully transfer and disclose such information without restriction and free of any obligation to keep it confidential; or (iv) is independently developed by Recipient without reference to Discloser’s Confidential Information.

(a)the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement;

(b)the failure by Seller to perform or observe any term or provision of this Agreement, including without limitation the Interim Servicing Requirements;

(c)any inadequate, inaccurate or improper acts or omissions related to the origination or servicing of the Mortgage Loans, and any failure to comply with all Applicable Requirements prior to the Transfer Date, except if (i) Seller was acting in accordance with the express written instruction of Purchaser following the Sale Date or (ii) such act or omission is that of Purchaser or its designee (other than the Seller) following the Transfer Date;

(d)any Claim pending as of the Transfer Date, or arising out of events occurring in whole or in part before the Transfer Date, in connection with the Servicing Rights transferred to Purchaser or the related Mortgage Loans;

(e)any unreimbursed amounts of any Advances made prior to the Transfer Date, including any deductions, disallowances, curtailments or denials by an Agency or an Insurer with respect to such Advances;

(f)any Compensatory Fees or other similar penalties or charges to be paid to or deducted by an Investor or Agency with respect to the Servicing Rights or the Advances arising out of or related to any act or omission of Seller prior to the Transfer Date, including without limitation failure to meet any “first legal” or other timeline requirements of the applicable Agency prior to the Transfer Date;

(g)any missing, incomplete or defective documents that are required to be delivered to Purchaser (or its Document Custodian or other designee) hereunder; or

(h)any act or omission of Purchaser or its subservicer on or after the Transfer Date arising out of the continuation of Seller’s (i) escrow practices in connection with the Servicing Rights, before the earlier of the first anniversary of the Transfer Date and Purchaser’s completion of its first escrow analysis of the Servicing Rights following the Transfer Date as required under Applicable Requirements or (ii) Mortgage Interest Rate adjustment practices in connection with the Servicing Rights, before the date of the next scheduled interest rate adjustment.

For purposes of establishing whether any matter gives rise to an obligation for Seller to provide indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.1, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Seller contained herein shall be determined without giving effect to the qualifications to such representations and warranties concerning knowledge or materiality (including any reference to “material adverse effect,” “Seller’s knowledge,” or any other terms similar thereto), or any exceptions to such representations and warranties in a disclosure schedule hereto or otherwise stated as an exception to Seller’s representations and warranties. The Foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan shall not be deemed to cut off Losses in respect of the related REO Property.

The indemnification provided by Seller herein shall be with respect to Losses involving third parties or Losses involving Purchaser, and shall be without duplication of amounts paid pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.5.

Section X.2Repurchase of Mortgage Loans, REO Property and Servicing Rights. If there exists a basis to demand indemnification under Section 10.1 that materially and adversely affects the value or marketability of the related Servicing Rights or the ownership interest of Purchaser in such Servicing Rights, regardless of whether Losses have actually occurred, or if an Investor requests that Purchaser or Seller repurchase a Mortgage Loan or REO Property or remove a Mortgage Loan from a Pool (as permitted pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement(s)) subject to any limitations of an Investor, Purchaser may require Seller to repurchase from Purchaser the applicable Servicing Rights, and in the case of an Investor request (as permitted pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement(s)), repurchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property from Purchaser, or if permitted under Applicable Requirements repurchase the Mortgage Loan or REO Property directly from an Investor. Seller shall repurchase the Servicing Rights at the Repurchase Price, and shall repurchase the Mortgage Loan or REO Property, if applicable, at a price equal to the amount necessary to repurchase such Mortgage Loan or REO Property from an Investor or remove it from the applicable Pool, including all amounts necessary to satisfy the applicable Investor’s indemnification, “make whole” or other request for payment, as may be the case, and including interest thereon calculated at the Mortgage Interest Rate.

Subject to Applicable Requirements, when Seller is required to repurchase a Mortgage Loan, REO Property or Servicing Rights from Purchaser, such repurchase shall be accomplished by Seller within thirty (30) days following receipt of written demand from Purchaser pursuant hereto, or such shorter period as required by the Investors. Purchaser may, in its discretion, sub-service such repurchased Mortgage Loan or REO Property for such period of time that will enable the Parties to provide proper transfer notices to be given to the Mortgagor in accordance with Applicable Requirements, but in no event for longer than thirty (30) days, and Purchaser shall be entitled to all Servicing Fees and Ancillary Fees for such period as consideration for sub-servicing the Mortgage Loan or REO Property. Upon completion of such repurchase by Seller, Purchaser shall forward to Seller all Mortgage Files relating to such Mortgage Loans, REO Property and/or Servicing Rights, as applicable, in accordance with Applicable Requirements. Any failure to satisfy the timing deadlines imposed by this Section 10.2 (other than those imposed by the Investors) shall not result in forfeiture of any rights hereunder, but shall result only in a diminution in the amount of recovery otherwise permitted by this Section based upon any actual prejudice caused directly by such delay.

If an Investor chooses not to exercise its repurchase rights as set forth in this Section 10.2 and instead proposes a risk fee or repurchase alternative agreement (each a “Repurchase Alternative Agreement”) which Purchaser and Seller deem acceptable, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for any costs, fees, or expenses incurred by Purchaser arising under such Repurchase Alternative Agreement and Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless for any and all Losses incurred by Purchaser that arise out of, relate to, or otherwise result from a Repurchase Alternative Agreement. To the extent that an Investor ultimately requires Purchaser

to repurchase any Mortgage Loan subject to a Repurchase Alternative Agreement, Seller will repurchase such Mortgage Loan from Purchaser in accordance with this Section 10.2. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, Purchaser shall be under no obligation to offer a risk free agreement or other repurchase alternative offered by an Investor, but shall not in each case unreasonably withhold such an offer.

Nothing herein is intended to limit or otherwise impair the right of Seller to dispute with an Investor any responsibility or liability for any demands from such Investor. Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Seller within ten (10) Business Days of any Investor demands and permit Seller to reasonably contest and/or appeal such demands. Any amount paid by Seller pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall be without duplication of amounts paid pursuant to Sections 10.1 or 10.5.

Section X.3Indemnification of Seller. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from, and will reimburse Seller for, any and all Losses incurred by Seller after the Transfer Date to the extent that such Losses result from:

(a)the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement;

(b)the failure by Purchaser to perform or observe any term of provision of this Agreement; or

(c)any failure by Purchaser or its subservicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Applicable Requirements on or after the Transfer Date (other than in connection with the continuation by Purchaser or any subservicer of any past practices of Seller or any Prior Servicer (resulting from the information and electronic data provided by Seller/Prior Servicer to Purchaser) that fail to comply with Applicable Requirements; provided, however, that Purchaser shall remain responsible for any incremental losses arising after the period Purchaser or any such subservicer discovered (or should have discovered in accordance with standard servicing practices) such past practice that fails to comply with Applicable Requirements during the servicing of the Mortgage Loans after the Transfer Date and is continued by Purchaser or the subservicer following such discovery or after the time such past practice should have been discovered in accordance with standard servicing practices and there has been a reasonable opportunity to cure the past practice).

(a)Each Party to this Agreement shall notify the other Party in writing of the existence of any material fact known to it giving rise to any obligations of any Party under Article X and, in the case of any Claim brought by a third party, which may give rise to any such obligations, and each Party shall notify the other Party of the making of such Claim or the commencement of such action by a third party as and when same becomes known to it. The failure or delay in providing notice shall not relieve a Party obligated to provide indemnification (“Indemnifying Party”) of any obligation to indemnify or reimburse the other Party (“Indemnified Party”) hereunder unless such failure or delay materially prejudices the rights or

increases the liability of the Indemnifying Party with respect to the matter as to which such notice relates, and then such Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify or reimburse hereunder shall be reduced only by the amount that it actually has been damaged thereby. The Indemnifying Party may, at its own cost and expenses, assume and control defense of any Claim, including the right to designate counsel and to control, all negotiations, litigation, settlements, compromises and appeals of any such Claim or potential Claim; provided that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchaser is the Indemnified Party and Purchaser reasonably believes that the assumption of the defense or prosecution of all or a portion of such Claim is necessary to assure that its right or ability to enforce a material portion of its other Mortgage Loans or Servicing Rights or to assure that its method of doing business or its authority and approvals to service are not materially impaired, then, upon notice to Seller from Purchaser, Seller shall permit such assumption by Purchaser. The Party not controlling the defense or prosecution of any such Claim may participate at its own costs and expense. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that, the Indemnifying Party may settle any such Claim without the Indemnified Party’s consent if such settlement (i) does not involve any finding or admission of any violation of applicable law or any violation of the rights of the Indemnified Party; (ii) does not involve any relief for monetary Losses that would be paid by the Indemnified Party; and (iii) releases the Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim. Following the discharge of the Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect to any Claim under this Article X, the Indemnified Party shall, subject to Applicable Requirements, assign to the Indemnifying Party any and all related Claims against third parties. Within thirty (30) days after receipt, the Indemnified Party shall refund to the Indemnifying Party the amounts of all recoveries received by the Indemnified Party with respect to any claim with respect to which it is reimbursed for Losses. The obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 10.4(a) shall include Losses for Claims that are settled (with the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent) whether or not such settlement includes any acknowledgment or admission of fault, liability or breach by the Indemnifying Party.

(b)Following the receipt of written notice from the Indemnified Party of a demand for indemnification, the Indemnifying Party shall (i) seek to cure the problem giving rise to the demand, if possible, and (ii) within thirty (30) days or such lesser time as may be required by an Investor, Insurer or third party claimant, pay the amount for which it is liable or otherwise take the actions which it is required to take. As to any Claim for indemnity for which notice is given as hereinbefore provided, the corresponding obligation of indemnity shall continue to survive, subject to Section 12.4, until whichever of the following events first occurs: (A) the Indemnifying Party shall have discharged its obligation of indemnity to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim, as required hereunder; (B) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have finally determined that the Indemnifying Party is not liable to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim; or (C) the Indemnified Party shall have released in writing (or be held to have released) the Indemnifying Party from any liability with respect to such Claim.

(c)The indemnification provided by Seller and Purchaser hereunder shall be with respect to Losses involving third parties and Losses involving the indemnified party.

(d)Following the discharge of the Indemnifying Party’s obligations with respect to any Claim under this Article X, the Indemnified Party shall, subject to Applicable Requirements, assign to the Indemnifying Party any related Claims against third parties.  Within thirty (30) days after receipt, the Indemnified Party shall refund to the Indemnifying Party the amounts of all recoveries received by the Indemnified Party with respect to any Claim with respect to which it is reimbursed for Losses.

Section X.5Compensatory Fees. Seller agrees to reimburse Purchaser for any Compensatory Fees with respect to Mortgage Loans that are imposed by an Investor with respect to the servicing of any Mortgage Loan prior to the Transfer Date. Purchaser shall notify Seller within ten (10) Business Days of any demand from an Investor for such amounts and permit Seller to reasonably contest and/or appeal such demands and, if requested by Seller, Purchaser shall pay such amounts from funds provided by Seller subject to a written reservation of Seller’s rights to dispute such amounts. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with reasonable requests by Seller to compile information required to appeal the Compensatory Fee assessment. Seller shall provide Purchaser with all funds relating to the payment of Compensatory Fees or penalties that are the responsibility of Seller pursuant to this Section 10.5 in a timely manner so as to allow Purchaser to comply with Applicable Requirements regarding the payment of such amounts to an Investor. Any amount paid by Seller pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be without duplication of amounts paid pursuant to Sections 10.1 or 10.2.

Section XI.1Termination. This Agreement and the Parties obligations to engage in or complete the Transaction may be terminated as follows:

(ii)by Purchaser or Seller, by written notice to the other, if the other Party breaches any of the representations or warranties made by it hereunder in any

(iv)by Purchaser, by written notice to Seller, if an Investor Consent is not obtained, or in the event that any such Investor Consent contains any term or condition that could adversely affect the value or marketability of the related Servicing Rights, the interest of Purchaser, or impose any material cost or obligation on Purchaser not normally imposed in the ordinary course of a transfer of servicing rights; or

(v)by Purchaser, by written notice to Seller, if an Investor has either (a) withdrawn the Investor Consent, (b) objected to the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (c) not provided the Investor Consent by the Transfer Date; or

(vi)by Purchaser or Seller, by written notice to the other Party, on or after the Termination Date.

If this Agreement is terminated between the Sale Date and Transfer Date, within two (2) Business Days after such termination, Seller shall return to Purchaser any portions of the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser to Seller related to the applicable Servicing Rights. The termination of this Agreement shall not affect the rights of either Party with respect to any liabilities incurred or suffered by such Party as a result of the breach by the other Party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement.
