Upon termination of any Transactions as set forth in Paragraph 3(c) of this Master Repurchase 28 Agreement, Buyer agrees to execute promptly endorsements of the mortgage notes, assignments of the mortgages and UCC-3 assignments, releases or terminations related to such Transactions, to the extent that such documents are prepared by the Seller for Buyer's execution, are delivered to Buyer by the Seller and are necessary and appropriate, as reasonably determined by the Seller, to reconvey, without recourse, to the Seller and perfect title of like tenor to that conveyed to Buyer to the related Mortgage Loans. Buyer shall provide cooperation in assisting and directing the Collateral Agent to facilitate such preparation (without expense to Buyer). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Master Repurchase Agreement, in no event shall Purchased Mortgage Assets remain in the custody of the Seller or any affiliate of the Seller, except as permitted under the Restated Collateral Agency Agreement. Section 2.09. Substitution. Paragraph 9 of the Master Repurchase Agreement is amended by deleting the existing Paragraph 9 in its entirety and replacing it with the following language: (a) In the case of any Transaction for which the Repurchase Date is other than the Business Day immediately following the Purchase Date and with respect to which the Seller does not have any existing right to substitute substantially the same Mortgage Assets for the Purchased Mortgage Assets, the Seller shall have the right, subject to the proviso to this sentence, upon notice to Buyer, which notice shall be given at or prior to noon (12:00 p.m.) (New York time) on the preceding Business Day, to substitute substantially the same Mortgage Assets for any Purchased Mortgage Assets; provided, however, that Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect, by the close of business on the Business Day next following the Business Day on which notice is received not to accept such substitution. In the event such substitution is accepted by Buyer, such substitution shall be made by the Seller's transfer to Buyer of additional Mortgage Assets, and after substitution, the substituted additional Mortgage Loans shall be deemed to be Purchased Mortgage Assets. In the event Buyer elects not to accept such substitution, Buyer shall offer the Seller the right to terminate the Transaction. If the Seller elects to terminate such Transaction (which election shall be made in writing within five (5) Business Days of Buyer's offer to Seller of the right to terminate the transaction), the date of termination will be determined in accordance with Paragraph 3(c) of the Master Repurchase Agreement. (b) In the event the Seller exercises its right to substitute or terminate pursuant to subparagraph (a), the Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer, by the close of the Business Day of such substitution or termination, as the case may be, an amount equal to (A) Buyer's actual cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of (i) entering into replacement Transactions; and (ii) entering into or terminating hedge transactions, (B) to the extent Buyer determines not to enter into replacement Transactions, the loss incurred by Buyer directly arising or resulting from such substitution or termination and (C) in the case of the termination of any Transaction, the related Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Assets. The foregoing amounts shall be determined and calculated solely by Buyer on a commercially reasonable basis. 29 ARTICLE III CONDITIONS OF PURCHASES Section 3.01.

Section 5.27. Operations and Properties. The Seller shall act prudently and in accordance with customary industry standards in managing and operating its Property and shall continue to underwrite, hedge and sell Mortgage Loans in the same diligent manner it has applied in the past and take no greater credit or market risks than are currently being borne by it.

The Buyer may from time to time request, in writing, that the Collateral Agent deliver a Mortgage Note that constitutes Transferred Mortgage Assets so that such Mortgage Note may be replaced by a corrected Mortgage Note. Upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of such a request, and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence, the Collateral Agent is permitted to deliver to the Buyer or the Servicer the Mortgage Note to be corrected, such delivery to be conditioned upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a corrected Mortgage Note acceptable to it within 14 calendar days after such delivery; provided, that at no time shall the Collateral Value of Mortgage Notes which have been so delivered and have not been replaced with corrected Mortgage Notes hereunder exceed $5,000,000. If the corrected Mortgage Note is not received within such time, then, beginning on the first Business Day following such fourteenth calendar day, the Collateral Agent shall assign such Mortgage Loan a Collateral Value of zero. ARTICLE VII EVENTS OF DEFAULT Section 7.01. Events of Default. (a) Section 11 is amended by deleting such Section in its entirety and substituting the following therefor: (i) the Seller fails to make (A) any payment required under Section 2.03 or 2.04 by the day that such payment is due, or (B) payment of any cost, expense, indemnity payment or other amount due hereunder, and such failure continues for five Business Days after written notice thereof; or, while the Seller is acting as the Servicer, the Servicer fails to make any payment or deposit to be made by it under this Agreement or the Master Repurchase Agreement by the third Business Day after the date such payment is due; or (ii) the Seller or, while the Seller is acting as the Servicer, the Servicer fails to keep or perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Master Repurchase Agreement (other than as referred to in clause (i) above) and such failure continues unremedied beyond the expiration of any applicable grace or notice period which may be expressly provided for in such covenant or agreement, or, if no such period is specified, within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof; or (iii) [Intentionally Deleted] (iv) any statement, warranty or representation by or on behalf of the Seller contained in this Agreement or the Master Repurchase Agreement or any Purchase Request, officer's certificate or other writing furnished in connection with this 44 Agreement, proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect as of the date made or deemed made, provided that a breach of a representation or covenant that affects an individual Mortgage Loan shall not constitute an Event of Default; or (v) (i) the Seller, the Servicer (so long as the Servicer and the Seller are the same entity) or the Performance Guarantor fails to make when due or within any applicable grace period any payment on any other Indebtedness with an unpaid principal balance of over $1,000,000.00 ($10,000,000 with respect to the Performance Guarantor); or (ii) any event or condition occurs under any provision contained in any such obligation or any agreement securing or relating to such obligation (or any other breach or default under such obligation or agreement occurs) if the effect thereof is to cause or permit with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both the holder or trustee of such obligation to cause such obligation to become due prior to its stated maturity; or (iii) any such obligation becomes due (other than by regularly scheduled payments) prior to its stated maturity; or (iv) any of the foregoing occurs with respect to any one or more items of Indebtedness of the Seller, the Servicer (so long as the Servicer and the Seller are the same entity) or the Performance Guarantor with unpaid principal balances exceeding, in the aggregate, $1,000,000.00 ($10,000,000 with respect to the Performance Guarantor); or (vi) any Purchase of Mortgage Assets hereunder and the Mortgage Loan Collateral and the Collections with respect thereto shall for any reason cease to constitute valid and perfected ownership of such Mortgage Assets, Mortgage Loan Collateral and Collections free and clear of any Adverse Claim and the Seller fails to repurchase such Mortgage Assets pursuant to Section 2.04; or (vii) the Seller shall generally not pay its debts as they become due, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (viii) the Seller shall (A) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, Collateral Agent, intervenor or liquidator of it or of all or a substantial part of its assets, (B) file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, (C) file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement with creditors or to take advantage of any Debtor Laws, (D) file an answer admitting the material allegations of, or consent to, or default in answering, a petition filed against it in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding, or (E) take corporate action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or (ix) an involuntary petition or complaint shall be filed against the Seller seeking bankruptcy or reorganization of the Seller or the appointment of a receiver, custodian, trustee, intervenor or liquidator of the Seller, or all or substantially all of the assets of the Seller, and such petition or complaint shall not have been dismissed within 60 days of the filing thereof; or an order, order for relief, judgment or, decree shall be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction or other competent authority approving a petition or complaint seeking reorganization of the Seller or appointing a receiver, 45 custodian, trustee, intervenor or liquidator of the Seller, or of all or substantially all of assets of the Seller; or (x) an Event of Default shall have occurred under the Restated Loan Agreement; (each of the foregoing, an "Event of Default") then, and in any such event, the Buyer may, by notice to the Seller, take either or both of the following actions: (A) declare the Facility Termination Date to have occurred (in which case the Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred) and (B) subject to the provisions of the Restated Loan Agreement, designate another Person to succeed the Seller as Servicer (without payment of any servicer termination fees); provided, that, automatically upon the occurrence of any event (without any requirement for the passage of time or the giving of notice) described in paragraph (vii), (viii) or (ix) of this Paragraph 11(a), the Facility Termination Date shall occur. Upon any such declaration or designation or upon such automatic termination, the Buyer shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies with respect to the Transferred Mortgage Assets provided after default under the UCC and under other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. (b) The parties hereto recognize that the Seller's obligations to Buyer under this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement are special, unique and of extraordinary character. If an Event of Default occurs hereunder, the Seller agrees that Buyer may enforce this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement by a proceeding for specific performance or other equitable remedy including, without limitation, a proceeding in which replevin or injunction is sought by Buyer. The Seller hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any and all rights it may have by statute, constitution or otherwise, to (i) assert the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law that might be asserted as a bar to such proceeding, and (ii) the fixing, imposition or posting of a bond or other security by Buyer as a condition to obtaining any equitable relief sought by Buyer, which relief the Seller further agrees may be obtained ex parte without prior notice to the Seller provided a hearing is substantially provided Seller within a reasonable time after any ex parte relief may be granted Buyer. Seller further agrees that the rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative, and are not exclusive of any rights, powers, privileges, or remedies, now or thereafter existing, at law, or in equity or otherwise. Section 7.02. Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default occurs with respect to the Seller, the following rights and remedies are available to the Buyer: (i) At the option of the Buyer, exercised by written notice to the Seller (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised, even if no notice is given, immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency), the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall be deemed immediately to occur. (ii) If the Buyer exercised or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subsection (a)(i) of this Section: 46 (A) the Seller's obligations hereunder to repurchase all Purchased Mortgage Assets in such Transactions shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, and (B) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Repurchase Price with respect to each such Transaction shall be increased by the aggregate amount obtained by daily application of, on a 360 day per year basis for the actual number of days during the period from and including the date of the exercise or deemed exercise of such option to but excluding the date of payment of the Repurchase Price as so increased, (x) the greater of the Prime Rate or the Pricing Rate for each such Transaction to (y) the Repurchase Price for such Transaction as of the Repurchase Date as determined pursuant to subsection (a)(i) of this Section (decreased as of any day by (I) any proceeds from the sale of Purchased Mortgage Assets applied to the Repurchase Price pursuant to subsection (a)(iii) of this Section, and (II) any amounts applied to the Repurchase Price pursuant to subsection (a)(iii) of this Section). (iii) The Buyer may (A) immediately sell, without notice or demand of any kind, at a public or private sale and at such price or prices as the Buyer may reasonably deem satisfactory any or all Mortgage Assets subject to a Transaction hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchase Assets, to give the Seller credit for such Purchase Assets in an amount equal to the Collateral Value of the Purchased Mortgage Assets against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by the Seller hereunder. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Mortgage Assets shall be applied first to the costs and expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection with the defaulting Seller's default; second to Buyer's costs (including fees and expenses of counsel to Buyer) of cover and/or related hedging or similar transactions (including any transaction described in paragraph 8 of the Master Repurchase Agreement); third to the Repurchase Price; and fourth to any other outstanding obligation of the Seller to the Buyer or its affiliates. (iv) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Mortgage Assets on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Mortgage Assets may not be liquid. In view of the nature of the Purchased Mortgage Assets, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or the underlying Purchased Mortgage Assets does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Buyer may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Mortgage Assets and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate Buyer to liquidate any Purchased Mortgage Assets on the occurrence of an Event of Default or to liquidate all Purchased Mortgage Assets in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Buyer. However, in recognition 47 of the parties' agreement that the Transactions hereunder have been entered into in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and that each Transaction has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions, the parties further agree that Buyer shall use its best efforts to liquidate all Transactions hereunder upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as quickly as is prudently possible in the good faith judgment of Buyer. (v) Buyer shall, without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Seller's obligations under this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver by any court having jurisdiction, without notice, to take possession of and protect, collect, manage, liquidate, and sell the Purchased Mortgage Assets or any portion thereof, and collect the payments due with respect to the Purchase Assets or any portion thereof. The Seller shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the appointment and activities of such receiver. (vi) Buyer shall have all the rights and remedies provided herein, provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, without limitation, the rights and remedies of a security party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York, to the extent that the Uniform Commercial Code is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), in equity, and under any other agreement between Buyer and the Seller. (vii) 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)(i) and (iii) of this Section, at any time thereafter without notice to the Seller. All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may have. (viii) In addition to its rights hereunder, Buyer shall have the right to proceed against any assets of Seller which may be in the possession of Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian), including the right to liquidate such assets and to set off the proceeds against monies owed by the Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement. Buyer may set off cash, the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Assets or proceeds thereof, and all other sums or obligations owed by the Seller to Buyer against all of Seller's obligations to Buyer, whether under this Agreement and the Master Repurchase Agreement, under a Transaction, or under any other agreement between the parties, or otherwise, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer's rights to recover any deficiency. Any cash, proceeds, or property in excess of any amounts due, or which Buyer reasonably believes may become due, to it from the Seller shall be returned to the Seller after satisfaction of all obligations of Seller to Buyer. 48 (ix) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and the Seller hereby expressly waives any defense the Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. The Seller also waives any defense the Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Items, or from any other election of remedies. The 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. (x) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Buyer shall have no right to proceed against any assets of the Seller other than the Purchased Mortgage Assets in the event of a default in the Seller's obligation to repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Assets pursuant to Section 3(b) or 3(c) of the Master Repurchase Agreement, as modified by this Agreement. Such obligation of the Seller to repurchase Purchased Mortgage Assets pursuant to Section 3(b) and 3(c) of the Master Repurchase Agreement, as modified by this Agreement, shall be recourse solely to the Purchased Mortgage Assets, in the aggregate, and the Seller shall have no obligation in respect of any deficiencies. By contrast, the Seller's obligation to repurchase Purchased Mortgage Assets pursuant to Section 2.5 hereunder shall be recourse to the assets of the Seller. ARTICLE VIII INDEMNIFICATION Section 8.01. Indemnities by the Seller. Without limiting any other rights which the Buyer may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify the Buyer and its assigns and transferees (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all damages, claims, losses, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts"), awarded against or incurred by any Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or the purchase of any Transferred Mortgage Assets or in respect of any Transferred Mortgage Asset or any related Mortgage Loan Collateral, including, without limitation, arising out of or as a result of: (a) the inclusion, or purported inclusion, in any Purchase of any Mortgage Asset that is not an Eligible Mortgage Asset on the date of such Purchase, or the characterization in any statement made by the Seller of any Transferred Mortgage Asset as an Eligible Mortgage Asset which is not an Eligible Mortgage Asset as of the date of such statement; (b) any representation or warranty or statement made or deemed made by the Seller (or any of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement, which shall have been incorrect when made; (c) the failure by the Seller to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Transferred Mortgage Asset or the related Mortgage Loan Collateral, or the failure 49 of any Transferred Mortgage Asset or the related Mortgage Loan Collateral to conform to any such applicable law, rule or regulation; (d) the failure to vest in the Buyer absolute ownership of the Mortgage Assets that are, or that purport to be, the subject of a Purchase under this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Collateral and Collections in respect thereof, free and clear of any Adverse Claim; (e) the failure of the Seller to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Mortgage Assets that are, or that purport to be, the subject of a Purchase under this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Collateral and Collections in respect thereof, whether at the time of any Purchase or at any subsequent time; (f) any claim by any Obligor arising out of the Seller's activities in connection with originating or purchasing any Transferred Mortgage Asset or any offset by any Obligor against the Seller arising out of acts by the Seller; (g) any failure of the Seller, as Seller or Servicer, to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof or to perform its duties or obligations under any Mortgage Loan Collateral related to a Transferred Mortgage Asset; (h) the commingling of Collections of Transferred Mortgage Assets by the Seller or a designee of the Seller, as Servicer or otherwise, at any time with other funds of the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller; (i) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to this Agreement or the use of proceeds of Purchases or the ownership of Transferred Mortgage Assets or the Mortgage Loan Collateral or Collections with respect thereto or in respect of any Transferred Mortgage Asset or related Mortgage Loan Collateral; (j) any failure of the Seller to comply with its covenants contained in Section 5.01; or (k) any claim brought by any Person other than an Indemnified Party arising from any activity by the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller in servicing, administering or collecting any Transferred Mortgage Asset. It is expressly agreed and understood by the parties hereto (i) that the foregoing indemnification is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a guarantee of the collectibility or payment of the Transferred Mortgage Assets and (ii) that nothing in this Section 8.01 shall require Seller to indemnify any Person (A) for Mortgage Assets which are not collected, not paid or uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial inability to pay of the applicable Obligor, (B) for damages, losses, claims or liabilities or related costs or expenses resulting from such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (C) for any income taxes or franchise taxes incurred by such Person arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or in respect of any Transferred Mortgage Asset or any related Mortgage Loan Collateral. 50 ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS Section 9.01. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Seller therefrom shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Buyer, and by any assignee of the Buyer if the amendment or waiver in any way affects any right, remedy or obligation of the Buyer to such assignee, and, in the case of any amendment, also signed by the Seller, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Buyer or any assignee to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Section 9.02. Notices, Etc.. All notices and other communications hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (which shall include facsimile communication) and be faxed or delivered, to each party hereto, at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. Notices and communications by facsimile shall be effective when sent (and shall be followed by hard copy sent by regular mail), and notices and communications sent by other means shall be effective when received.

In connection with any sale or assignment by the Buyer of all or a portion of the Transferred Mortgage Assets, the buyer or assignee (including Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or any other Approved Investor or other purchaser to whom rights under this Agreement may be assigned but only with respect to an assignment made following and during the continuance of an Event of Default), as the case may be, shall, to the extent specifically provided in connection with its purchase or assignment, under a master agreement or otherwise (in the case of Mortgage Loans delivered to Fannie Mae), have all rights and remedies of the Buyer under this Agreement (as if such buyer or assignee, as the case may be, were the Buyer hereunder) and without limitation of the foregoing, all representations and warranties (including Fannie Mae Representations and Warranties in the case of Mortgage Loans delivered to Fannie Mae) made by the Seller to Buyer shall be directly enforceable by such buyer or assignee, except to the extent specifically provided in the agreement between the Buyer and such buyer or assignee, as the case may be. (b) This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until such 51 time, after the Facility Termination Date, when all of the Obligations are paid in full; provided, however, that rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and warranty made by the Seller pursuant to Article IV and the provisions of Article VIII and Sections 9.04 and 9.05 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Section 9.04. Costs, Expenses and Taxes, Expenses and Taxes. (a) In addition to the rights of indemnification granted to the Buyer pursuant to Article VIII hereof, the Seller agrees to pay on demand all out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other documents and agreements to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Buyer with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Buyer as to its rights and remedies under this Agreement, and the Seller agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses, if any (including counsel fees and expenses), in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder excluding, however, any costs of enforcement or collection of Transferred Mortgage Assets which are not paid on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or financial inability to pay of the applicable Obligor. (b) In addition, the Seller agrees to pay any and all stamp and other taxes and fees payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement or the other documents or agreements to be delivered hereunder, and the Seller agrees to save each Indemnified Party harmless from and against any liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees. Section 9.05. No Proceedings. The Seller hereby agrees that it will not institute against the Buyer any proceeding of the type referred to in Section 7.01(a)(viii) or (ix) so long as there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the later of (i) the Facility Termination Date and (ii) the date on which all of the Obligations are paid in full. Section 9.06. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF, OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW WHICH SHALL APPLY HERETO). Section 9.07. Third Party Beneficiary. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges that the Buyer may assign or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and that such assignees may (except as otherwise agreed to by such assignees) further assign or grant a security interest in their rights under this Agreement, and the Seller hereby consents to any such assignments or grants of security interests. All such assignees, including parties to the Restated Loan Agreement in the case of assignment or the grant of a security interest to such parties, shall be 52 third party beneficiaries of, and shall be entitled to enforce the Buyer's rights and remedies under, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were parties thereto, except to the extent specifically limited under the terms of their assignment. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, with respect to each Mortgage Loan sold to Buyer that is subsequently sold to Fannie Mae, in addition to the other rights and remedies granted herein, Fannie Mae shall have, and may exercise any and all rights and remedies that are available to Fannie Mae under the Fannie Mae Incorporated Documents as a result of a breach of any of the Fannie Mae Representations and Warranties. Fannie Mae's definition or determination of what event constitutes a breach shall be determinable by Fannie Mae under the terms of the Fannie Mae Incorporated Documents. All rights and remedies granted herein are cumulative and non-exclusive, and the exercise of any one shall not preclude the exercise of others. Section 9.08. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Section 9.09. Repurchase Transactions. Buyer may in its sole discretion engage in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Assets or otherwise pledge or hypothecate the Purchased Mortgage Assets with a counterparty of Buyer's choice; provided, however, that no such transaction by Buyer shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to Seller in connection with the repurchase by Seller of any Purchased Mortgage Assets in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that, upon demand by Seller, Buyer shall redeliver to Seller such repurchased Purchased Mortgage Assets as are specifically identified by Seller free and clear of any liens or encumbrances created, or permitted or suffered to be created, by Buyer. 53 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.
