106610148\V-12


 

EXHIBIT A

 

Schedule 1 --Part II

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE: UNDERLYING REPURCHASE TRANSACTIONS

Sellers shall be deemed to make the following representations and warranties to Buyer, as of the date of any Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction and at all times while this Agreement is in effect and each date on which any Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction is outstanding:

(a)Validity of Underlying POP Repurchase Documents. The Underlying POP Repurchase Documents and any other agreement executed and delivered by POP or guarantor thereto, as applicable, in connection with an Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws or by general principles of equity.  Sellers and POP had legal capacity to enter into the Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction and POP had the legal capacity to execute and deliver the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents and any such agreement, and the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents and any such other related agreement to which Sellers or POP are parties have been duly and properly executed by Sellers and POP, as applicable.  The Underlying POP Repurchase Documents to which POP is a party constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of POP.  The Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction and the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents are in full force and effect, and the enforceability of the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents has not been contested by POP.

(b)Original Terms Unmodified.  Except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, the terms of the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents have not been impaired, altered or modified in any respect.

(c)No Defenses.  The Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense nor will the operation of any of the terms of any Underlying POP Repurchase Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render any Underlying POP Repurchase Document unenforceable in whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto.

(d)No Bankruptcy.  Neither POP nor PennyMac Corp. is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.  Neither POP nor PennyMac Corp. has threatened, and neither POP nor PennyMac Corp. is contemplating, either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of such entity’s assets or any of the Loans.

(e)Compliance with Applicable Laws; Consents.  Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, consumer credit protection, or disclosure laws applicable to the Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction have been complied with in all material respects, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations, and the applicable Seller shall maintain in its possession, available for the inspection by Buyer, and shall deliver to Buyer, upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such requirements.  All consents of and all filings with any federal or state Governmental Authority necessary

in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of the Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

(f)No Waiver.  Except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, no Seller has waived the performance by POP nor PennyMac Corp. of any action, if POP’s or PennyMac Corp.’s failure to perform such action would cause the Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction to be in default in any material respect nor, except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, has any Seller waived any such default resulting from any action or inaction by POP or PennyMac Corp.

(g)No Defaults.  Except to the extent approved in writing by Buyer, there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder, and no Seller nor its predecessors in interest have waived any such default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.

(h)Delivery of Underlying POP Repurchase Documents.  True and correct copies of the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents have been delivered to Buyer.

(i)Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction Not Assigned.  No Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction Document is assigned to any third party.  The Underlying POP Repurchase Documents permit Sellers to sell, assign, pledge, transfer or rehypothecate the Loans and all other collateral purchased by Sellers pursuant to the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents.

(j)Solvency.  The transfer of the Loans subject to the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents is not undertaken with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of PennyMac Corp.’s creditors.  PennyMac Corp. is not insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section 101(32) and the transfer and pledge of the Loans pursuant to the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents (i) will not cause PennyMac Corp. to become insolvent, (ii) will not result in any property remaining with PennyMac Corp. to be unreasonably small capital, and (iii) will not result in debts that would be beyond PennyMac Corp.’s ability to pay as same mature.  PennyMac Corp. receives reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer and pledge of the Loans in accordance with the Underlying POP Repurchase Documents.

(k)Ownership.  The applicable Seller is the sole owner and holder of the underlying Loan. The Loans have not been assigned or pledged by the applicable Seller other than pursuant to this Agreement.  The applicable Seller has good, indefeasible and marketable title to the Loans, and has full right to transfer, pledge and assign the Loans to Buyer free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to assign, transfer and pledge the Loans pursuant to this Agreement, and following the transfer and pledge of the Loans, Buyer will hold such Loans free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest except any such security interest created pursuant to the terms of the Agreement.

(l)Financial Information.  All financial data, including, without limitation the statements of cash flow and income and operating expenses, that have been delivered to Buyer (i) are true, complete, and correct in all material respects, and (ii) accurately represent the financial condition of POP and PennyMac Corp. as of the date of such reports.

2


 

(m)Loans Assignable; Buyer’s Security Interest.  The underlying Mortgage Loan Documents and Underlying POP Repurchase Documents have been delivered to Buyer and (i) the UCC-1 Financing Statement naming PennyMac Corp. as debtor and POP as secured party and identifying the Loans as collateral has been filed in the applicable filing office.  

(n)No Custodial Arrangement. There is no agreement or arrangement with any third party to hold the Mortgage Loan Documents pursuant to the Underlying POP Repurchase Transaction.

(o)POP Diligence.  The applicable Seller has delivered to Buyer all information regarding  POP and PennyMac Corp. that Buyer has requested and such information is satisfactory to Buyer in all material respects.

(p)Underlying POP Repurchase Documents. The Underlying POP Repurchase Documents are “repurchase agreements” within the meaning of Section 559 of the Bankruptcy Code.
