b.              Seller shall request that Buyer enter into a Transaction by delivering (i) to Buyer, a Transaction Request on or before 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Purchase Date for Transactions involving Wet-Ink Mortgage Loans and one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Purchase Date for Transactions involving all Mortgage Loans other than Wet-Ink Mortgage Loans, and (ii) to Buyer and Custodian a Request for Certification and related Mortgage Loan Schedule, in accordance with the applicable Custodial Agreement.

19

Confirmation, the terms of the Purchase Confirmation shall control with respect to the related Transaction.

4.              Repurchase

a.               Seller shall repurchase the related Purchased Mortgage Loans from Buyer on each related Repurchase Date.  Such obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan (but liquidation or foreclosure proceeds received by Buyer shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan on each Price Differential Payment Date except as otherwise provided herein).  Seller is obligated to repurchase and take physical possession of the Purchased Mortgage Loans from Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) at Seller’s expense on the related Repurchase Date.

b.              Provided that no Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and Buyer has received the related Repurchase Price upon repurchase of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Buyer agrees to release its ownership interest hereunder in the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including, the Repurchase Assets related thereto) at the request of Seller.  The Purchased Mortgage Loans (including the Repurchase Assets related thereto) shall be delivered to Seller free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or claim.

of a Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller agrees to (i) provide Buyer with a copy of a report from the related Servicer indicating that such Purchased Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, (ii) remit to Buyer, within two (2) Business Days, the Repurchase Price with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan and (iii) provide Buyer a notice specifying each Purchased Mortgage Loan that has been prepaid in full.  Buyer agrees to release its ownership interest in Purchased Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after receipt of evidence of compliance with clauses (i) through (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence.

c.               In the event that at any time any Purchased Mortgage Loan violates the applicable sublimit set forth in the definition of Market Value, Buyer may, in its sole discretion, redesignate such Mortgage Loan as an Exception Mortgage Loan.  If Buyer does not redesignate such Mortgage Loan as an Exception Mortgage Loan, and if Seller fails to notify Buyer within five (5) Business Days following notice or knowledge of such violation that Seller does not want to receive a bid for such Mortgage Loan as described below, Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer may offer to terminate Seller’s right and obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan by paying Seller a price to be set by Buyer in its sole discretion (a “Bid”). Seller, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of Buyer’s bid (the “Violation Deadline”) may, in its sole discretion, either (i) accept Buyer’s bid, terminating Seller’s right and obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan under this Agreement or (ii) immediately repurchase the Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price in accordance with this Section 4.  Any amount paid by Buyer or its Affiliate to terminate Seller’s right and obligation to repurchase a Purchased Mortgage Loan if a Bid is accepted pursuant to this Section shall be applied by Buyer toward the outstanding Repurchase Price for the applicable Transaction.

5.              Price Differential.

a.               On each Business Day that a Transaction is outstanding, the Pricing Rate shall be reset and, unless otherwise agreed, the accrued and unpaid Price Differential shall be settled in cash on each related Price Differential Payment Date.  Two (2) Business Days prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Buyer shall give Seller written or electronic notice of the amount of the Price Differential due on such Price Differential Payment Date.  On the Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer the Price Differential for such Price Differential Payment Date (along with any other amounts to be paid pursuant to Sections 7 and 34 hereof), by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

b.              If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Price Differential Payment Date, with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer (in addition to, and together with, the amount of such Price Differential) interest on the unpaid Repurchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Post Default Rate until the Price Differential is received in full by Buyer.

21

c.               Seller may remit to Buyer funds in an amount up to the outstanding Purchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, to be held as unsegregated cash margin and collateral for all Obligations under this Agreement (such amount, to the extent not applied to Obligations under this Agreement, the “Buydown Amount”).  The Buydown Amount shall be used by Buyer in order to calculate the aggregate Price Differential, which will accrue on the aggregate Purchase Price then outstanding minus the Buydown Amount, applied to Transactions involving the lowest Pricing Rate.  The Seller shall be entitled to request a drawdown of the Buydown Amount or remit additional funds to be added to the Buydown Amount no more than one time per week.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Margin Call or other Default exists, the Buyer shall be entitled to use any or all of the Buydown Amount to cure such circumstance or otherwise exercise remedies available to the Buyer without prior notice to, or consent from, the Seller.  Within two (2) Business Days’ receipt of written request from Seller, and provided no Margin Call or other Default exists, Buyer shall remit any portion of such Buydown Amount back to Seller.

6.              Margin Maintenance

a.               If at any time the outstanding Purchase Price of any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction is greater than the Asset Value of such Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Margin Call”) .

b.              Notice delivered pursuant to Section 6(a) may be given by any written or electronic means.  With respect to all Margin Calls, any notice given before 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day; notice given after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day (the foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”).  The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date.  Seller and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

c.               In the event that a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Buyer may retain any funds received by it to which the Seller would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) shall be held by Buyer against the related Margin Deficit and (ii) may be applied by Buyer against the Repurchase Price of any Purchased Mortgage Loan for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer

22

retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.

7.              Income Payments

b.              Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on each Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential out of the interest portion of the Income paid in respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans for the preceding month in accordance with Section 5 of this Agreement.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon termination of any Transaction or portion thereof, Servicer shall retain from the Income relating thereto any servicing fee and other amounts due under any Servicing Agreement and remit all remaining amounts as follows:

(1)          first, to Buyer in payment of any accrued and unpaid Price Differential, to the extent not paid by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 5;

(2)          second, without limiting the rights of Buyer under Section 6 of this Agreement, to Buyer, in the amount of any unpaid Margin Deficit;

(4)          fourth, to the payment of all other costs and fees payable to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; and

(5)          fifth, to Seller, any remaining amounts.

c.               Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 7, within two (2) Business Days of receipt by Seller or Underlying Repurchase Counterparty of any prepayment of principal in full, with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall remit or cause to be remitted such amount to Buyer and Buyer shall immediately apply any such amount received by Buyer to reduce the amount of the Repurchase Price due upon termination of the related Transaction.

(3)          Power.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate.

(4)          Due Authorization.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Agreements, as applicable.  Each Program Agreement has been (or, in the case of Program Agreements not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by Seller and

31

Guarantor, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against Seller and Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

(7)          Solvency.  Each of Seller and Guarantor is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Transaction and, after giving effect to such Transaction, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business.  Neither Seller nor Guarantor intend to incur, nor believe that they have incurred, debts beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature and are not contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of such entity or any of its assets.  The amount of consideration being received by Seller upon the sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to Buyer constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for such Purchased Mortgage Loans.

16.       Remedies Upon Default

In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred:

a.               Buyer may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or any Affiliate), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled).  Buyer shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency) give notice to Seller and Guarantor of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

b.              If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Section, (i) Seller’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Mortgage Loans, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Section, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by Buyer and applied, in Buyer’s sole discretion, to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices for all outstanding Transactions and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder, and (iii) Seller shall immediately deliver to Buyer the Mortgage Files relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to such Transactions then in Seller’s possession or control.

c.               Buyer also shall have the right to obtain physical possession, and to commence an action to obtain physical possession, of all Records and files of

45

Seller relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and all documents relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, any legal, credit or servicing files with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans) which are then or may thereafter come in to the possession of Seller or any third party acting for Seller including the Servicers and any Underlying Repurchase Counterparty.  To obtain physical possession of any Purchased Mortgage Loans held by Custodian, Buyer shall present to Custodian a Trust Receipt.  Without limiting the rights of Buyer hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Buyer for Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Buyer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

d.              Buyer shall have the right to direct all servicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans and each Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to remit all collections thereon to Buyer, and if any such payments are received by Seller, Seller shall not commingle the amounts received with other funds of Seller and shall promptly pay them over to Buyer.  Buyer shall also have the right to terminate any one or all of the servicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans with or without cause.  In addition, Buyer shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Mortgage Loans and liquidate all Repurchase Assets.  Such disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans may be, at Buyer’s option, on either a servicing-released or a servicing-retained basis.  Buyer shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Mortgage Loans with respect to any such disposition thereof.  Buyer may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans.  The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and liquidation of the Repurchase Assets shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof.  Seller agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Buyer to dispose of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets.  Buyer shall be entitled to place the Purchased Mortgage Loans in a pool for issuance of mortgage-backed securities at the then-prevailing price for such securities and to sell such securities for such prevailing price in the open market.  Buyer shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Mortgage Loans individually for the prevailing price. Buyer shall also be entitled, in its sole discretion to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans, to give the Seller credit for such Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by the Seller hereunder.

46

e.               Upon the happening of one or more Events of Default, Buyer may apply any proceeds from the liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Repurchase Assets to the Repurchase Prices hereunder and all other Obligations in the manner Buyer deems appropriate in its sole discretion.

g.              To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall be liable to Buyer for interest on any amounts owing by Seller hereunder, from the date Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Buyer’s rights hereunder.  Interest on any sum payable by Seller under this Section 16(g) shall accrue at a rate equal to the Post-Default Rate.

h.              Reserved.

i.                  Buyer shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or applicable law.

j.                  Buyer may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent provided in subsections (a) and (d) of this Section, at any time thereafter without notice to Seller.  All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may have.

k.               Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process.  Seller also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, or from any other election of remedies.  Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

47

l.                  Buyer shall have the right to perform reasonable due diligence with respect to Seller and the Mortgage Loans, which review shall be at the expense of Seller.

21.       Entire Agreement; Severability

This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions.  Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

22.       Non assignability

The Program Agreements are not assignable by Seller or Guarantor.  Buyer may from time to time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements; provided, however that Buyer shall maintain as agent of Seller, for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned.  Upon such assignment, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Agreement to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Buyer hereunder, and (b) Buyer shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by it to either (i) an Affiliate of Buyer which assumes the obligations of Buyer or (ii)  another Person approved by Seller (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) which assumes the obligations of Buyer, be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Agreements.  Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Buyer in writing.  Buyer may distribute to any prospective assignee any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller.

23.       Set-off

In addition to any rights and remedies of the Buyer hereunder and by law, the Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to the Seller or Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by the Seller and Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return excess margin), credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from the Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof.  The Buyer agrees promptly to notify the Seller or Guarantor after any such set off and application made by the Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

24.       Binding Effect; Governing Law; Jurisdiction

a.               This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Seller acknowledges that the obligations of Buyer hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any

54

guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Buyer.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (EXCEPT FOR SECTION 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

b.              SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY.  SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING.  SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY SUBMIT TO, AND WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THEY MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS.

25.       No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder.  No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto.  Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 6(a), 16(a) or otherwise, will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

26.       Intent

a.               The parties intend that: (i) each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in section 101(47) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, therefore, are subject to the protections of certain sections of the Bankruptcy Code including, without limitation, section 559 with respect to the exercise by Buyer of its rights hereunder to cause the liquidation, termination, or acceleration of such Transactions upon Seller becoming the subject of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) each Transaction is a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code, and, therefore, are subject to the protections of certain sections of the Bankruptcy Code including, without limitation, section 555 with respect to the exercise by Buyer of its rights hereunder to cause the liquidation, termination, or acceleration of such Transactions upon Seller becoming the subject of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) this Agreement is a “master netting agreement,” as

55

that term is defined in section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, is subject to the protections of certain sections of the Bankruptcy Code including without limitation, section 561 with respect to Buyer’s rights to offset or net termination values, payment amounts, or other transfer obligations arising under or in connection with the termination, liquidation, or acceleration of Transactions hereunder.

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

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

d.              For U.S. federal tax purposes, the Seller, the Guarantor, the Buyer, and each Buyer assignee by acquiring an interest in any Transaction agree to treat and report each Transaction as indebtedness issued by Guarantor or Seller as the case may be, which indebtedness, in the case of each obligor, shall have but a single maturity for purposes of Code section 7701(i)(2)(A)(ii) and U.S. Treasury Regulation section ###-###-####(i)-1(e).

e.               Each party agrees that this Agreement is intended to create mutuality of obligations among the parties, and as such, the Agreement constitutes a contract which (i) is between all of the parties and (ii) places each party in the same “right” and “capacity”.

27.       Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

a.               in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15 of the 1934 Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the SIPA do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

b.              in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

56

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

28.  Power of Attorney

Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate.  Seller hereby appoints Buyer as Seller’s agent and attorney-in-fact to file any such financing statement or statements in Seller’s name and to perform all other acts which Buyer deems appropriate to perfect and continue its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, and sign assignments on behalf of Seller as its agent and attorney-in-fact and exercise all rights and remedies of Seller thereunder and to act as attorney-in-fact for Underlying Repurchase Counterparty.  This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Buyer’s consent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 28.  In addition the foregoing, the Seller agrees to execute a power of attorney, the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Power of Attorney”), to be delivered on the date hereof.

29.  Buyer May Act Through Affiliates

Buyer may, from time to time, designate one or more Affiliates for the purpose of performing any action hereunder.

30.  Indemnification; Obligations

a.     Each of Seller and Guarantor agrees to hold Buyer and each of its respective Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify each Indemnified Party (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same is incurred) against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Transaction Request, Purchase Confirmation, any Program Agreement, any Underlying Repurchase Document, or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby resulting from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Each of Seller and Guarantor also agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy provided for herein, any Transaction Request, Purchase Confirmation and any Program Agreement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel.  Seller’s and Guarantor’s agreements in this Section 30 shall survive the payment in full of the Repurchase

57

Price and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.  Each of Seller and Guarantor hereby acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are recourse obligations of Seller and  such Guarantor and are not limited to recoveries each Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans.  Each of Seller and Guarantor also agrees not to assert any claim against Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the facility established hereunder, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.  THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

b.     Without limitation to the provisions of Section 4, if any payment of the Repurchase Price of any Transaction is made by Seller other than on the then scheduled Repurchase Date thereto as a result of an acceleration of the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 16 or for any other reason, Seller shall, upon demand by Buyer, pay to Buyer an amount sufficient to compensate Buyer for any losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as of a result of such payment.

c.     Without limiting the provisions of Section 30(a) hereof, if Seller fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of Seller by Buyer, in its sole discretion.

31.  Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

32.  Confidentiality

a.     This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Buyer and shall be held by Seller and Guarantor in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Buyer except for (i) disclosure to Seller’s or Guarantor’s direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, or (ii)  disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreement, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without

58

limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that Seller may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Buyer or any pricing terms (including, without limitation, the Pricing Rate, Purchase Price Percentage and Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of the Buyer.

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

33.  Recording of Communications

Buyer, Seller and Guarantor shall have the right (but not the obligation) from time to time to make or cause to be made tape recordings of communications between its employees

59

and those of the other party with respect to Transactions.  Buyer, Seller and Guarantor consent to the admissibility of such tape recordings in any court, arbitration, or other proceedings.  The parties agree that a duly authenticated transcript of such a tape recording shall be deemed to be a writing conclusively evidencing the parties’ agreement.

34.          Commitment Fee

Seller shall pay to Buyer in immediately available funds a non-refundable Commitment Fee.  The Commitment Fee shall be paid in accordance with the payment schedule set forth in the Pricing Side Letter.  All payments of the Commitment Fee shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Buyer at such account designated by Buyer.

35.  Reserved

36.  Periodic Due Diligence Review

Seller acknowledges that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Seller, Underlying Repurchase Counterparty, Servicer and the Mortgage Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, for the purpose of performing quality control review of the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, and upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Seller agrees to permit or shall cause Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to permit Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Files and any and all documents, data, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, quality control review) in the possession or under the control of Seller, Underlying Repurchase Counterparty, Servicer and/or the Custodian.  Seller also shall make available or cause Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Mortgage Loans.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may purchase Mortgage Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Mortgage Loans purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering Broker’s price opinions, new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate such Mortgage Loan.  Buyer may underwrite such Mortgage Loans itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such underwriting.  Seller agrees to cooperate or cause Underlying Repurchase Counterparty to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller.  Seller further agrees that Seller shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Buyer’s activities pursuant to this Section 36 (“Due Diligence Costs”).

37.          Approval of Underlying Repurchase Counterparties and Servicers

a.     Seller shall provide Buyer with (a) a written list of proposed Underlying Repurchase Counterparties and (b) any reasonably requested information with respect to such proposed Underlying Repurchase Counterparties, in each case, prior to Buyer’s purchase of any Mortgage Loan subject to the respective Underlying Repurchase Documents.  Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion may reject any proposed Underlying Repurchase Counterparty by providing written notice in accordance with Section 20 hereof to Seller within ten (10) Business Days after Seller provides such written list of proposed Underlying Repurchase Counterparties.  If Buyer does not approve an Underlying Repurchase Counterparty by providing a written notice to Seller within ten (10) Business Days after Seller provides the written list of proposed Underlying Repurchase Counterparties, then such Underlying Repurchase Counterparties shall be deemed rejected by Buyer for the purposes of this Agreement.  After an Underlying Repurchase Counterparty is approved by Buyer as an Underlying Repurchase Counterparty for the purposes of this Agreement, Buyer may in its sole and absolute discretion reject any previously approved Underlying Repurchase Counterparty by providing to Seller written notice in accordance with Section 20 hereof.  Following any such rejection of a previously approved Underlying Repurchase Counterparty, Seller shall not sell to Buyer hereunder any Mortgage Loans purchased by Seller from such previously approved Underlying Repurchase Counterparty and any such Mortgage Loans may be assigned a Market Value of zero in Buyer’s good faith discretion.

b.     Seller shall provide Buyer with (a) a written list of proposed Servicers and (b) any reasonably requested information with respect to such proposed Servicers, in each case, prior to any Servicer being engaged with respect to a prospective Purchased Mortgage Loan.  Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion may reject any proposed Servicer by providing written notice in accordance with Section 20 hereof to Seller within ten (10) Business Days after Seller provides such written list of proposed Servicers.  If Buyer does not approve a Servicer by providing a written notice to Seller within ten (10) Business Days after Seller provides the written list of proposed Servicers, then such Servicers shall be deemed rejected by Buyer for the purposes of this Agreement.  After a Servicer is approved by Buyer as a Servicer for the purposes of this Agreement, Buyer may in its sole good faith discretion reject any previously approved Servicer by providing to Seller written notice in accordance with Section 20 hereof.

c.     Buyer, with or without cause, may instruct Seller to remove and discharge (i) MERS and MERSCORP Holdings, Inc., as Electronic Agent (as defined in the Underlying Electronic Tracking Agreement) from the performance of their duties under the Underlying Electronic Tracking Agreement with respect to some or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or (ii) the Custodian from the performance of its duties under the Underlying Custodial Agreement with respect to some or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans.  If Buyer delivers such instruction to Seller, Seller shall promptly exercise its rights to terminate MERS, MERSCORP

61

Holdings, Inc. or the Custodian, as applicable, in accordance with the related Underlying Repurchase Document.

38.  Authorizations

40.  Documents Mutually Drafted

41.  Conflicts

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Program Agreement, the documents shall control in the following order of priority: first, the terms of the Pricing Side Letter shall prevail, then the terms of this Agreement shall prevail, and then the terms of the other Program Agreements shall prevail.
