The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, may by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Indenture Trustee, request a single extension of the Stated Maturity Date for the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Optional Extension Date (the “Optional Extension”); provided that the term of the Acknowledgment Agreement is also extended through December 2025.  To the extent the Administrator has exercised the Optional Extension and the term of the Acknowledgment Agreement has been extended through December 2025, the Stated Maturity Date will be extended on the Optional Extension Date such that, after giving effect to such extension, the Stated Maturity Date will be two (2) years after the Stated Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to exercise of the Optional Extension.  The Stated Maturity Date of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes cannot be extended past the date which is two (2) years following the initial Stated Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to exercise of the Optional Extension.  Upon exercise of the Optional Extension, during the Step-Up Fee Period, the Step-Up Fee will apply to the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes.

Section 7.        Determination of Note Interest Rate and LIBOR.

(a)At least one (1) Business Day prior to each Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall calculate the Note Interest Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period and the Interest Payment Amount for the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes for the upcoming Payment Date, and include a report of such amount in the related Payment Date Report.

(b)On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee will determine the LIBOR Rate for the succeeding Interest Accrual Period for the related Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes on the basis of the procedures specified in the definition of “LIBOR Rate.”

(c)The establishment of One-Month LIBOR by the Indenture Trustee and the Indenture Trustee’s subsequent calculation of the Note Interest Rate and the Interest Payment Amount on the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes for the relevant Interest Accrual Period, in the absence of manifest error, will be final and binding.

Section 8.        Conditions Precedent Satisfied.

The Issuer hereby represents and warrants to the Noteholders of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes and the Indenture Trustee that, as of the issuance date (a) the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes are rated BBB- (sf) by the Note Rating Agency and (b) each of the conditions precedent set forth in the Base Indenture, including but not limited to those conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.10(b) of the Base Indenture and Article XII thereof, as applicable, to the issuance of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms thereof.

Section 9.        Representations and Warranties.

The Issuer, the Administrator, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee hereby restate as of the related Issuance Date, or as of such other date as is specifically referenced in the body of such representation and warranty, all of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 9.1, 10.1 and 11.14, respectively, of the Base Indenture.

The Administrator hereby represents and warrants that it is not in default with respect to any material contract under which a default should reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Administrator to perform its duties under this Indenture or any Indenture Supplement, or with respect to any order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body which would have a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated hereunder, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such a default with respect to any such contract or order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body.

PLS hereby represents and warrants that it is not in default with respect to any material contract under which a default should reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of PLS to perform its duties under this Indenture, any Indenture Supplement or any Transaction Document to which it is a party, or with respect to any order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body which would have a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated hereunder, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such a default with respect to any such contract or order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body.

Section 10.      Amendments.

(b)Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in Section 6.10 or Article XII of the Base Indenture except for amendments otherwise permitted as described in Sections 12.1 and 12.2 of the Base Indenture and in the immediately preceding paragraph, no supplement, amendment or indenture supplement entered into with respect to the issuance of a new Series of Notes or pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 12.2 of the Base Indenture may, without the consent of the Series Required Noteholders in respect of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes, supplement, amend or revise any term or provision of this Indenture Supplement; provided, that with respect to the following amendments, the consent of each Noteholder of each Outstanding Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes materially and adversely affected thereby shall be required:

(i)any change to the scheduled payment date of any payment of interest on any Note held by such Noteholder, or change a Payment Date or Stated Maturity Date of any Note held by such Noteholder;

12


 

 

(ii)any reduction of the Note Balance of, or the Note Interest Rate, the Step-Up Fee Rate or the Default Supplemental Fee Rate on any Notes held by such Noteholder, or change the method of computing the Note Balance or Note Interest Rate in a manner that is adverse to such Noteholder;

(iii)any impairment of the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on any Note held by such Noteholder;

(vi)any modification to permit the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on the collateral that is prior to the lien in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders of the Notes;

(vii)any modification to change the method of computing the amount of principal of, or interest on, any Note held by such Noteholder on any date;

13


 

 

(f)In the future, with the Administrative Agent’s consent, the Issuer and the Repo Seller may amend the Acknowledgment Agreement, Base Indenture, PC Repurchase Agreement and other Transaction Documents to permit the use of an Interim Servicer for Acquired MSRs for an Interim Servicing Period and for certain limitations as to concentration of the Acquired MSRs that will be included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base (the “Anticipated Amendments”).  The Anticipated Amendments would permit Acquired MSRs to be included as Repurchase Assets as of the date that PLS acquires nominal title to the Mortgage Loans related to the MSRs, including during the related Interim Servicing Period.  Noteholders of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes will be deemed to consent to the Anticipated Amendments by their acquisition of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes and will not have the ability or right to consent to the Anticipated Amendments at the time of their implementation.

Section 11.      Counterparts.

This Indenture Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts, by manual or facsimile signature, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Indenture Supplement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Indenture Supplement.

Section 12.      Entire Agreement.

This Indenture Supplement, together with the Base Indenture incorporated herein by reference and the related Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and fully supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements relating to such subject matter.

Section 13.      Limited Recourse.

Notwithstanding any other terms of this Indenture Supplement, the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes, any other Transaction Documents or otherwise, the obligations of the Issuer under the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes, this Indenture Supplement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party are limited recourse obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from the Trust Estate, and following realization of the Trust Estate and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of this Indenture Supplement, none of the Noteholders of Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes, the Indenture Trustee or any of the other parties to the Transaction Documents shall be entitled to take any further steps to recover any sums due but still unpaid hereunder or thereunder, all claims in respect of which shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive.  No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes or this Indenture Supplement or for any action or inaction of the Issuer against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, stockholder or incorporator of the Issuer or any of their successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes or this Indenture Supplement.  It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 13 shall not (a) prevent recourse to the Trust Estate for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Trust Estate, including, without limitation, the PC Guaranty and the PMT Guaranty or (b) save as specifically provided therein, constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Series 2018-GT1 Term

14


 

 

Notes or secured by this Indenture Supplement.  It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 13 shall not limit the right of any Person to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes or this Indenture Supplement, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against any such Person or entity.

Section 14.      Owner Trustee Limitation of Liability.

It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (a) this Indenture Supplement is executed and delivered by Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS”), not individually or personally, but solely as trustee of the Issuer, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, (b) each of the representations, warranties, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations, warranties, undertakings and agreements by WSFS, but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Issuer, (c) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on WSFS, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under the parties hereto, (d) WSFS has made no investigation as to the accuracy or completeness of any representations or warranties made by the Issuer in this Agreement and (e) under no circumstances shall WSFS, be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer under this Indenture Supplement or the other Transaction Documents.

Section 15.      Credit Risk Retention.

While it is not clear that Section 15G of the 1934 Act, added pursuant to Section 941(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Regulation RR”), applies to the issuance of the Series 2018-GT1 Term Notes and that PLS will be deemed a securitizer for the purposes of Regulation RR, PLS will maintain a subordinated seller’s interest in the Issuer (in the form of the Owner Trust Certificate) that equals not less than 5% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of any Outstanding Notes (other than Notes held to maturity by PLS or its wholly-owned affiliates), calculated in accordance with Regulation RR.

The seller’s interest expected to be retained by PLS in connection with Regulation RR (to the extent applicable), will equal approximately 34.7% or $399,000,000 (in each case, as calculated in accordance with Regulation RR), as of the Issuance Date.  As the Series 2016-MSRVF1 Notes have not been issued and are held by PLS and financed by CSFB, the Note Balance of the Series 2016-MSRVF1 Notes is not included in the denominator of the calculation that produced the percentage described above in accordance with Regulation RR.  If the Note Balance of the Series 2016-MSRVF1 Notes were included in the denominator, the resulting percentage of the seller’s interest would be lower but still in excess of the required 5%.
