Pursuant to Section 3.04, Purchaser shall remit to Seller any servicer incentive compensation that is payable to Seller hereunder but is received by Purchaser following the related Servicing Transfer Date.

(e) Except for the HAMP and 2MP servicer compensation payable to Seller prior to the preceding paragraph, Purchaser shall be entitled to all initial and subsequent servicer incentive compensation and any additional compensation under HAMP or 2MP that is received by Seller or Purchaser with respect to a Mortgage Loan after the related Servicing Transfer Date regardless of when the HAMP or 2MP evaluation or modification process has been commenced or when the related loan modification became or becomes permanent. Seller shall remit to Purchaser any servicer incentive compensation that is payable to Purchaser hereunder but is received by Seller following the related Servicing Transfer Date.

(f) For Mortgage Loans for which a HAMP modification is in process but not completed prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date or for which a HAMP modification was denied prior to such Servicing Transfer Date, Seller shall provide Purchaser with all information set forth in the Servicing Transfer Instructions. For any of Mortgage Loans for which a HAMP modification has been completed, commenced or denied, Seller agrees to provide Purchaser with any additional information reasonably requested by Purchaser to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, the Servicing Agreements and its Servicer Participation Agreement entered into with respect to HAMP.

(g) For Mortgage Loans for which a 2MP modification is in process but not completed and for Mortgage Loans that are “eligible” under the 2MP, Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to acquire the approval from the United States Treasury to permit the Purchaser to perform proprietary modifications with respect any such Mortgage Loans in accordance with its proprietary modification program which shall be on terms and conditions consistent with the 2MP modification program and subject to other terms as approved by the United States Treasury. For such Mortgage Loans that have been approved by the United States Treasury on or prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date, Purchaser shall assume responsibility for Servicing such Mortgage Loans, Seller shall cease all Servicing activity related to such Mortgage Loans transferred on such Servicing Transfer Date, and Purchaser shall perform and provide proprietary modifications with respect any such Mortgage Loans in accordance with its proprietary modification program subject to the terms as approved by the United States Treasury. Purchaser shall comply in a timely manner with all reporting, notice and other documentation requirements under 2MP in connection with the transfer of servicing of such Mortgage Loans to Purchaser. If the approval of the United States Treasury described above has not been received on or prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date, the Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to negotiate the specific provisions regarding the transfer of any such Mortgage Loans from Seller to Purchaser, including the timing of such transfer, the subservicing of such Mortgage Loans by Purchaser on behalf of Seller and the accompanying provisions regarding the transfers of the related Collateral File and Credit and Servicing File (to the extent that such concepts are applicable) until the related 2MP modification has been completed or denied or the United States Treasury approval has been received.

(h) Each Party shall, at any time and from time to time, promptly, upon the reasonable request of the other Party, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such documents, or perform all such further acts, as may be requested in connection with any audit, inspection, review or investigation of a Party’s compliance with or reporting under HAMP or 2MP related to the Mortgage Loans.

The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to negotiate the specific provisions regarding the transfer of the Pipeline Loans from Seller to Purchaser, including the timing of such transfer and the accompanying provisions regarding the transfers of the related Collateral File and Credit and Servicing File (to the extent that such concepts are applicable).

(ii) at any time prior to the Initial Sale Date by Seller or Purchaser (provided, that the terminating Party is not then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein in any material respect, after excluding any effect of materiality qualifications set forth in any such representation or warranty) if there shall have been a breach of any of the applicable representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement on the part of the other Party, such that a condition to the obligation of the terminating Party to close the Transactions set forth in Article VIII or IX, as applicable, cannot be satisfied and which breach by its nature cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date or shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days after delivery of written notice of such breach by the terminating Party to the other Party;

(iii) at any time prior to the Initial Sale Date by Seller or Purchaser (provided, that the terminating Party is not then in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein in any material respect, after excluding any effect of materiality qualifications set forth in any such representation or warranty) if there shall have been a failure to perform or comply with any of the applicable covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement on the part of the other Party in any material respect, such that a condition to the obligation of the terminating Party to close the Transactions set forth in Article VIII or IX, as applicable, cannot be satisfied and which failure by its nature cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date or shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days after delivery of written notice of such failure by the terminating Party to the other Party;

(iv) by Seller or Purchaser, if the Initial Sale Date shall not have occurred by the Termination Date or such later date as shall have been agreed to in writing by Purchaser and Seller; provided, that no Party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.01(a)(iv) if the failure of the final Closing to have occurred on or before the Termination Date was due to such Party’s breach of any representation or warranty or material breach of any covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement; and

(v) by Seller or Purchaser prior to the Initial Sale Date if (A) final action has been taken by a Governmental Entity whose approval is required in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions, which final action (1) has become unappealable and (2) does not approve this Agreement or the Transactions, (B) any Governmental Entity whose approval or nonobjection is required in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions has stated that it will not issue the required approval or nonobjection, or (C) any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree, ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Transactions and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and unappealable.

In such circumstance, Seller and Purchaser shall enter into good faith negotiations to provide for a subservicing arrangement that provides Purchaser with the rights and obligations of such Mortgage Servicing Rights, and if and when such subservicing arrangement is entered into, Purchaser shall pay a Purchase Price for such Mortgage Servicing Rights pursuant to Section 3.01. If Seller and Purchaser, negotiating in good faith, are unable to enter into such a subservicing arrangement with respect to the Mortgage Servicing Rights of one or more such Mortgage Loans (the “Retained Servicing Rights”) within 45 days following the Termination Date, then Seller shall retain the Retained Servicing Rights with no further obligations with respect thereto for either Party.

Section 10.02 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01(a), this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no further force, except that the provisions of this Section 10.02, Section 12.01, Section 12.02, Section 12.03, Section 12.04, Section 12.06, Section 12.07, Section 12.09, Section 12.10, Section 12.11, Section 12.12, Section 12.14 and Section 12.15, and any other Section which, by its terms, relates to post-termination rights or obligations, shall survive such termination of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Seller prior to the Initial Sale Date pursuant to Section 10.01(a)(iii) as a result of a failure of Purchaser to consummate the relevant contemplated Transactions, and provided that all of the conditions set forth in Article VIII have then been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature would be satisfied at the Closing) and Seller has indicated (and not withdrawn) in writing at least five Business Days prior to the termination date that it is ready and willing to proceed with the Closing at the Initial Sale Date, then Seller may elect to receive from Purchaser a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) equal to fifty million dollars ($50,000,000). Such election shall be made in writing and delivered to Purchaser no later than five Business Days prior to the termination date. If such election is made and this Agreement is terminated, then Purchaser shall pay Seller the Termination Fee as provided in Section 10.02(d).

(c) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser prior to the Initial Sale Date pursuant to Section 10.01(a)(iii) as a result of a failure of Seller to consummate the relevant contemplated Transactions, and provided that all of the conditions set forth in Article IX have then been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature would be satisfied at the Closing) and Purchaser has indicated (and not withdrawn) in writing at least five Business Days prior to the termination date that it is ready and willing to proceed with the Closing at the Initial Sale Date, then the Purchaser may elect to receive from Seller the Termination Fee.

If such election is made and this Agreement is terminated, then Seller shall pay Purchaser the Termination Fee as provided in Section 10.02(d).

(d) Any such Termination Fee shall be paid by the non-terminating Party to the terminating Party no later than three (3) Business Days following the Termination Date. Seller and Purchaser agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the Termination Fee becomes payable and is actually paid by the non-terminating Party, (i) the receipt of such Termination Fee by the terminating Party shall be deemed liquidated damages and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the terminating Party and its Related Parties against the non-terminating Party or its Related Parties, and the terminating Party shall not seek to recover any other money damages or seek any other remedy under this Agreement and (ii) the terminating Party hereby waives, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to waive, any and all other rights or causes of action it or its Affiliates may have against the breaching Party. In the event a Termination Fee is not paid pursuant to this Section 10.02(d), the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.02(a) shall not affect the rights of either Party with respect to any liabilities incurred or suffered by such Party as a result of a breach by the other Party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI

Section 11.01 [Reserved].

(c) Any repurchase obligations, make whole, indemnification or other obligations related to the origination of the Mortgage Loans, including any origination representations and warranties made with respect to the Mortgage Loans (provided that the indemnity provided by Seller under this clause (c) shall not be deemed to be an admission by Seller of the liability or risk with respect to any such obligation other than to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement);

(d) Any Action by any Governmental Entity (including any Order arising therefrom) arising out of any act or omission prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date by Seller, any prior servicer, subservicer or originator in respect of any of the related Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Servicing Rights, or any actions by FHA or VA for pre-boarding delinquencies;

(f) Any recourse Losses with respect to any Recourse Servicing; and

(g) Any Legacy Litigation Claims;

provided, that Seller will not be responsible to Purchaser or its Related Parties for that portion, if any, of any Loss that arises out of or results from Purchaser’s or its designee’s failure to service any of the Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Servicing Rights after each Servicing Transfer Date in compliance with all Applicable Requirements

Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 11.02 to the contrary, any obligation to pay Agency Fees shall be governed by the provisions of Section 11.06.

Section 11.03 Indemnification by Purchaser.

Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8 of the Cooperation Agreement, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller and its Related Parties harmless from and shall reimburse Seller and its Related Parties for any Losses suffered or incurred by Seller or its Related Parties that result from or arise out of:

(a) Any breach of a representation or warranty by Purchaser made in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(b) Any breach, failure to perform or other non-fulfillment of any covenant or obligation of Purchaser contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(c) Any repurchase obligations, make whole, indemnification or other obligations related to the origination of the Mortgage Loans, including any origination representations and warranties made with respect to the Mortgage Loans to the extent that such Losses are not indemnifiable by Seller as a result of the application of Section 11.08 (other than any such obligations that relate to Mortgage Loans that were originated by Seller from and after March 19, 2009 insofar as they arise out of claims made against Seller in its capacity as the originator of such Mortgage Loans);

(d) Any act or omission prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date by Seller, any prior servicer, subservicer or originator in respect of any of the related Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Servicing Rights, including any failure by Seller or such other parties to comply with Applicable Requirements prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date to the extent that such Losses are not indemnifiable by Seller as a result of the application of Section 11.08 (other than in respect of Mortgage Loans that were originated by Seller from and after March 19, 2009 insofar as they arise out of claims made against Seller in its capacity as the originator of such Mortgage Loans);

(e) Any failure by Purchaser or its designees or successors to service any of the Mortgage Loans and Mortgage Servicing Rights after each Servicing Transfer Date in compliance with all Applicable Requirements, including any improper or unlawful use of the Powers of Attorney delivered pursuant to Section 2.03, except in any case if and to the extent such failure or improper or unlawful use results from a breach of a representation or warranty by Seller or any prior act or omission of Seller or any originator or prior servicer or subservicer in violation of Applicable Requirements; and

(f) Any claim, action, suit or arbitration that is brought against Seller after the relevant Servicing Transfer Date that relates to any act or omission by Purchaser, Seller, any prior servicer, subservicer, originator or other Person in respect of any of the related Mortgage Loans or Mortgage Servicing Rights to the extent that such Losses are not indemnifiable by Seller as a result of the application of Section 11.08 (other than in respect of Mortgage Loans that were originated by Seller from and after March 19, 2009 insofar as they arise out of claims, actions, suits or arbitrations brought against Seller in its capacity as the originator of such Mortgage Loans).

Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 11.03 to the contrary, with respect to (i) clauses (c), (d) and (f) of Section 11.03, the Purchaser shall have no obligation to indemnify Seller for Losses thereunder to the extent that such Losses are finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction (or, if applicable, by the relevant arbitrator) to be the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller and (ii) any obligation to pay Agency Fees shall be governed by the provisions of Section 11.06.

Section 11.04 Repurchase Events.

In the event Seller is notified in writing by Purchaser that Purchaser is required to repurchase a Mortgage Loan under any Servicing Agreement and such repurchase would be subject to a valid indemnification claim against Seller pursuant to Section 11.02, Seller shall, subject to any right of appeal or cure, fund the purchase price required to paid to the applicable Investor. If a Mortgage Loan is required to be repurchased pursuant to the preceding sentence, Purchaser shall continue to retain the Mortgage Servicing Rights relating to such Mortgage Loan, and shall continue to service such Mortgage Loan in accordance with its ordinary course practices and on the same terms as those under which it serviced such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such repurchase event. In the event of such repurchase, Purchaser shall promptly remit any collections of principal and interest payments, and any other payments or proceeds that would be payable to the owner of the Mortgage Loan, to Seller.

Section 11.05 Procedures For Third Party Claims That Are Indemnifiable

In the event that a Party receives written notice of the assertion of any litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions, decrees or any other claims raised or made by a third party after the related Servicing Transfer Date and that are subject to indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Third Party Claim”), such Party shall promptly give reasonably detailed written notice of such event to the other Party, provided, however the failure to give such notification will not affect the indemnification provided hereunder unless the indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure, and then only to the extent of such prejudice. Upon receipt of such notice of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim using counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified Party; provided, however, the indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of such Third Party Claim that includes any non-monetary relief, remedies or obligations that would be applicable to the indemnified Party (including, in the case of Purchaser, the Purchased Assets), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the indemnified Party reasonably concludes that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying Party, the indemnified Party shall have the right, at the indemnifying Party’s reasonable expense, to select separate counsel and to otherwise separately defend itself but shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. With respect to any Third Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified Party agrees to cooperate and cause its Related Parties to cooperate in good faith with the indemnifying Party to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Third Party Claim.

Section 11.06 Agency Fees.

Subject to the limitation set forth in Section 11.08 (it being understood that once the Cap has been reached, any remaining Agency Fees (other than Seller Paid Agency Fees) will be the responsibility of Purchaser), Agency-imposed fees or penalties (including any repurchase demands, make-whole obligations or other obligations to make cash payments) related to any Mortgage Loan foreclosures exceeding an Agency’s required timelines (the “Agency Fees”) that are imposed by an Agency with respect to any of the Agency Mortgage Loans shall be allocated as follows:

(i) Seller Paid Agency Fees shall be the sole responsibility of Seller;

(ii) Agency Fees imposed on or after the applicable Servicing Transfer Date shall be the sole responsibility of Purchaser if the related Mortgage Loan was less than ninety (90) days’ delinquent as of the applicable Servicing Transfer Date;

(iii) Agency Fees (other than Seller Paid Agency Fees) imposed on or after the applicable Servicing Transfer Date for Mortgage Loans that are ninety (90) days or more delinquent as of the applicable Servicing Transfer Date shall be allocated ratably between Seller and Purchaser on the basis of the number of “controllable” days of delay that occur prior to such Servicing Transfer Date and on and after such Servicing Transfer Date, as finally determined by the applicable Agency following any available appeal process; and

(iv) To the extent an Agency requires a Mortgage Loan to be repurchased due to foreclosure related timeline delays, the Parties will share the economic responsibility associated with such loan repurchase allocated ratably based on the number of “controllable” days of delay occurring prior to the applicable Servicing Transfer Date, provided, however, if the repurchase claim relates to a Seller Paid Agency Fee (as described in clause (ii) of such defined term), Seller shall have sole economic responsibility associated with such loan repurchase. Purchaser will fund each loan repurchase and Seller will reimburse Purchaser for its pro rata share of such repurchase on the last Business Day of the month in which such repurchase occurred.

In all cases, each of Purchaser and Seller shall utilize commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the amount of Agency Fees for which it may seek indemnification. Purchaser shall notify Seller within seven (7) Business Days of any Agency demands for such Agency Fees (to the extent Seller has responsibility hereunder to pay all or a portion of such fees) imposed on or after the applicable Servicing Transfer Date and permit Seller to reasonably contest and/or appeal such demands (to the extent permissible under Applicable Requirements). Purchaser shall lose its right to seek indemnification hereunder for any such Agency Fees for which it does not provide such notice timely, except to the extent that Seller has not been prejudiced by such delay. Purchaser and Seller shall pay any Agency Fees for which they are responsible hereunder at such time and manner as required under Applicable Requirements.

Section 11.07 Other Indemnification Provisions; Exclusive Remedy.

Other than to seek to compel performance a Party’s obligations under the Agreement, and except as provided in Section 10.02, the indemnification and cure and repurchase provisions of this Article XI shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of each Party and their respective Related Parties (a) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the other Party contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents and (b) arising out of the Transactions, either under this Agreement, at law or in equity. For the avoidance of doubt, the right of any Person to receive an indemnification payment or payment in connection with a repurchase under this Article XI shall not create a right to offset against such indemnification or repurchase payment any fee or payment payable by such Person under this Agreement; provided, however, that such Person shall have a right to offset against such payment any such fee or payment payable by such Person under this Agreement to the extent that such payment (i) has been agreed to by the Parties in writing or (ii) has been determined pursuant to a final and nonappealable award or decision by an arbitrator in accordance with Section 12.10 or, if applicable, a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 11.08 Allocation of Liabilities; Limitations on Indemnification Obligations.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall not be required to indemnify Purchaser and its Related Parties pursuant to Section 11.02 (exclusive of Uncapped Seller Amounts), or to make any payments pursuant to Section 11.06 (exclusive of Seller Paid Agency Fees), for an aggregate amount in excess of $150 million, subject to adjustment as provided in this Section 11.08 (as so adjusted, the “Cap”). Any Losses that are directly incurred by Seller as a result of third-party claims that are asserted against Seller of a nature described by clauses (c), (d) and (f) of Section 11.03 (in other words, claims that would be indemnifiable if the Cap had been exceeded, but are not indemnifiable because the Cap has not yet been exceeded) shall be deemed to reduce the amount of the Cap on a dollar-for-dollar basis; provided, however, that to the extent that such Losses are finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction (or, if applicable, by the relevant arbitrator) to be the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller, then such Losses shall not be deemed to reduce the amount of the Cap. For example, if a third-party claim is asserted against Seller in respect of an act or omission by Seller that takes place prior to the related Servicing Transfer Date in respect of any of certain Mortgage Servicing Rights and Seller incurs a Loss of $50,000 in connection with its defense and settlement of such claim, the Cap shall be reduced by $50,000. Seller shall provide Purchaser, as Purchaser may reasonably request, with reasonable periodic reports of Losses borne directly by Seller that reduce the Cap pursuant to this Section 11.08(a).

(b) The Cap shall not apply to Seller Paid Agency Fees, Uncapped Seller Amounts or any Losses relating to indemnification claims made under (i) Section 11.02(d) (but only insofar as such claims are not initiated by or on behalf of the Agencies, but instead are initiated by other Governmental Entities), (ii) Section 11.02(f) or (iii) Section 11.02(g). In the event that the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Pipeline Mortgage Loans) relating to the Purchased Assets sold hereunder (as reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and not taking into account any payoffs or amortization of such Mortgage Loans after the Effective Date) is less than 85% of the total aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Pipeline Mortgage Loans) eligible for sale hereunder as of the Effective Date (and reflected on Exhibit A) assuming that all of the conditions set forth in Article VIII and IX were met, Seller and Purchaser agree to negotiate in good faith on an amount by which the amount of the Cap shall be reduced.

Section 11.09 Survival.

The indemnification obligations of Seller and Purchaser under Section 11.02 and 11.03, respectively, shall survive the related Sale Date, and continue in full force and effect for a period of thirty-six (36) months thereafter, except in the case of indemnification obligations under Sections 11.02(d) (but only insofar as claims are made in respect of Actions initiated by Governmental Entities other than the Agencies), 11.02(f), 11.02(g) and 11.03(f), which shall survive indefinitely, and in the case of indemnification obligations under Sections 11.02(a) or 11.03(a), to the extent relating to a breach of Fundamental Reps (which Fundamental Reps shall survive indefinitely). The foregoing limitations shall not apply with respect to those specific pending claims for indemnification for which the requisite written notice was given by either Party to the other Party on or prior to the end of the applicable survival period and as to which Losses have begun to accrue. The Parties’ respective covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement to be performed at or after the related Sale Date, shall survive indefinitely unless otherwise set forth herein; provided, however, that any such survival shall not be deemed, directly or indirectly, to affect the survival periods specifically applicable to claims with respect to representations and warranties and indemnities provided in this Section 11.09.

Section 11.10 Treatment of Indemnity Payments.

Amounts paid under this Article XI shall be treated as adjustment to the Purchase Price and the Parties will report such payments consistent with such treatment, unless there is no basis for doing so under applicable law.

Section 11.11 Limitation of Damages.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, OR NONFORESEEABLE CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, OR CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES THAT WOULD NOT OTHERWISE BE RECOVERABLE IN A CONTRACT ACTION, IN EACH CASE WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PRINCIPLE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH LIMITATION SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE WITH RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS MADE AGAINST A PARTY THAT IS SUBJECT TO AN INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION PROVIDED FOR UNDER SECTION 11.02 OR 11.03, AS APPLICABLE. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THIS SECTION 11.11 SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO LIMIT THE PROVISIONS SECTION 10.02(B) RELATING TO THE TERMINATION FEE.

ARTICLE XII

Section 12.02 Confidentiality.

Each Party understands that certain information which it has been furnished and will be furnished in connection with the Transactions, including the Credit and Servicing Files, information concerning business procedures, servicing fees or prices, Non Public Personal Information and/or Personally Identifiable Financial Information (as those terms are defined in Sections 573.3(n) and (o) of the Office of Thrift Supervision Regulations on Privacy of Consumer Information published at 12 C.F.R. Chapter V implementing Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act), policies or plans of the other Party or any of its Affiliates, is confidential and proprietary, and each Party agrees that it will maintain the confidentiality of such information and will not disclose it to others (except for its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, financing sources, agents, representatives and advisors who have a need to know such information) or use it, except in connection with the proposed acquisition contemplated by this Agreement, in accordance with Applicable Requirements or as such Party reasonably determines necessary as a part of its filing of Securities and Exchange Commission Forms 8-K, 10-Q or 10-K as related to disclosures to investors (or any registration statements filed in connection with offerings of securities), without the prior written consent of the Party furnishing such information (and provided in connection with such Securities and Exchange Commission filings, the Party intending to disclose such information shall provide the other Party with drafts of the relevant portions of such filings sufficiently in advance of such filing to allow the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment, and shall reasonably consider the comments provided by the other Party). Information which is generally known in the industry concerning a Party or among such Party’s creditors generally or which has been disclosed to the other Party by third parties who have a right to do so shall not be deemed confidential or proprietary information for these purposes (provided, however, that the public announcement of such information may be subject to Section 12.14, as provided therein). If Purchaser, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or agent of any of the foregoing is at any time requested or required to disclose any information supplied to it in connection with the Transactions, Purchaser agrees to provide Seller with prompt notice of such request(s) so that Seller may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive Purchaser’s compliance with the terms of this Section 12.02. If Seller, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee or agent of any of the foregoing is at any time requested or required to disclose any information supplied to it in connection with the Transactions, Seller agrees to provide Purchaser with prompt notice of such request(s) so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive Seller’s compliance with the terms of this Section 12.02. Notwithstanding the terms of this Section 12.02, if, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Purchaser or Seller is nonetheless, in the opinion of its counsel, compelled to disclose information concerning the other Party to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or penalty, Purchaser or Seller may disclose such information to such tribunal without liability hereunder. If the proposed acquisition is not consummated, each Party agrees to promptly return to the other, immediately upon request, all confidential materials, and all copies thereof, which have been furnished to it in connection with the Transactions.

Section 12.03 Broker’s Fees.

Each Party hereto represents and warrants to the other that it has made no agreement to pay any finder’s, agent’s, broker’s or originator’s fee arising out of or in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement except, in the case of Seller, J.P. Morgan. The Parties hereto shall indemnify and hold each other harmless from and against any such obligation or liability and any expense incurred in investigating or defending (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) any claim based upon the other Party’s actions in connection with such obligation.

Section 12.10 Dispute Resolution.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in the city of New York, New York, before one or three neutral arbitrators as described below. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures, including in appropriate instances as described below, its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures (collectively the “Rules”). Judgment on any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude the parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration, or to enforce the provisions of the Guarantee referenced in the fourth recital of this Agreement, from a court of appropriate jurisdiction in the city of New York, New York. The Rules shall be supplemented by the provisions described below. In the event of any conflict between the Rules and the provisions described below, such provisions shall control.

(a) Any dispute in which a claim exceeds five million dollars ($5,000,000) shall be decided by three (3) neutral arbitrators (each, an “Arbitrator”) appointed by JAMS in accordance with the Rules. Any dispute in which a claim is less than five million dollars ($5,000,000) shall be decided by one (1) neutral Arbitrator appointed by JAMS in accordance with the Rules and shall be governed by JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures. Any Arbitrator appointed by JAMS shall be a retired judge or a practicing attorney with no less than fifteen years of experience as an arbitrator;

(b) For any dispute in which the claim is less than five million dollars ($5,000,000), the Arbitrator is authorized to render a partial or full summary judgment, in a manner similar to the procedure provided for in Rule 56 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure;

(e) The Arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant injunctive relief and order specific performance;

(f) The Arbitrator(s) shall not have the authority to award consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages or any form of damages other than compensatory damages to the extent not permitted pursuant to Section 11.11;

(g) Each Party shall pay one-half of the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator(s) and one-half of the JAMS case management fees, provided, however, that if the Party seeking to recover damages is awarded at least 80% of its requested award, the other Party will bear all of the fees and expense of the Arbitrator(s) and will reimburse the complainant Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by such complainant Party in connection with the arbitration, and if such complainant Party is awarded 20% or less of its requested Award, such complainant Party will bear all of the fees and expense of the Arbitrator(s) and reimburse the other Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by such other Party in connection with the arbitration;

(h) The arbitration proceedings and all testimony, filings, documents, and information relating to or presented during the arbitration proceedings shall be deemed to be information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement; and

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the dispute between the parties involves the correction of errors pursuant to Section 3.03 or Section 7.08 of this Agreement, the Parties may elect instead to jointly engage a mutually acceptable, nationally recognized independent accounting firm to determine such dispute. The selected accounting firm shall be instructed to reach its determination within thirty (30) days following its engagement and such determination shall be final and binding on the Parties and shall not be subject to review by any court of law absent manifest error; provided, however, that: (i) the accounting firm’s engagement shall be limited to resolving any amounts in dispute between the Parties based solely on the information presented by the Parties; provided further, however, that each Party shall provide the other Party with copies of information in its possession and control, or that could otherwise be reasonably obtained, with respect to the dispute upon the reasonable written request of such other Party; (ii) the accounting firm shall deliver to each of the Parties a written report setting forth its determination of the dispute along with any related calculations; and (iii) the fees, costs, and expenses of the accounting firm shall be allocated to the Parties based on the percentage which the portion of the disputed amount not awarded to each Party bears to the total amount disputed by such Party. Any request by a Party to adjust the Purchase Price or such other amounts pursuant to this Section 12.10(i) must be received by the other Party within one hundred eighty (180) days of the applicable Servicing Transfer Date.

Section 12.11 Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules.

The Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to (a) develop a joint communications plan; (b) ensure that all public releases (or portions thereof) and other public statements with respect to the Transactions shall be consistent with such joint communications plan; and (c) unless otherwise required by applicable law, judicial and administrative judgments, orders or remediation plans, or any listing agreement with or rules of any stock exchange, to consult with each other before issuing any public release or otherwise making any public statement with respect to the Transaction Documents or the Transactions.
