FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

This First Amendment (this “Agreement”) to the Credit Agreement (as defined below) is dated as of March 10, 2015, and effective in accordance with Section 3 below, by and among WALKER & DUNLOP, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Borrower”), the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Lenders party hereto (the “Consenting Lenders”) pursuant to an authorization in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Lender Authorization”) and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as Administrative Agent.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:

The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 20, 2013 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified as of the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”).

The Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to amend the Credit Agreement as more specifically set forth herein. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent and each of the Consenting Lenders have agreed to grant such request of the Borrower.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Capitalized Terms. All capitalized undefined terms used in this Agreement (including, without limitation, in the introductory paragraph and the statement of purpose hereto) shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Credit Agreement.

2. Amendments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and the effectiveness of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the parties hereto agree that the Credit Agreement is amended by:

(a) amending Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement by adding the following defined term in proper alphabetical order:

“First Amendment Effective Date” means March 10, 2015.”

(b) amending Section 2.4 of the Credit Agreement by deleting clause (c) thereof in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“(c) Call Premium. In the event that, on or prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the First Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower (i) makes any prepayment of the Initial Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction (as defined below) or (ii) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each applicable Lender, a fee in an amount equal to, (x) in the case of clause (i), a prepayment premium of 1.0% of the amount of the Initial Term Loans being prepaid and (y) in the case of clause (ii), a payment equal to 1.0% of the aggregate amount of the Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment that are subject to such amendment (including, without limitation, any Initial Term Loans of a Non-Consenting Lender that is replaced pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with such amendment). Such fees shall be due and payable within three (3) Business Days of the

1

date of the effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction. For the purpose of this clause (c), “Repricing Transaction” means (x) any prepayment or repayment of the Initial Term Loans with the proceeds of, or any conversion of the Initial Term Loans into, any new or replacement tranche of term loans or Indebtedness incurred for the primary purpose of reducing the “effective yield” (taking into account, for example, upfront fees, interest rate spreads, interest rate benchmark floors and original issue discount, but excluding the effect of any arrangement, structuring, syndication or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders or holders of such new or replacement loans) to an amount less than the “effective yield” applicable to the Initial Term Loans (as such comparative yields are determined in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent consistent with generally accepted financial practices) and (y) any amendment to the pricing terms of the Initial Term Loans which reduces the “effective yield” applicable to the Initial Term Loans, but which in each case does not include any refinancing that involves an upsizing in connection with an acquisition by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) or other fundamental change or any other transaction not otherwise permitted by this Agreement.^”

(c) amending Section 3.11 of the Credit Agreement by replacing each reference to “originals” in clause (g) thereof with “copies”;

(d) amending Section 7.3 of the Credit Agreement by (i) replacing each reference to “Closing Date” in clauses (a)(i) and (a)(iv) with “First Amendment Effective Date”, (ii) replacing the reference to “$50,000,000” in subclause (A) of clause (a)(iv) thereof with “$100,000,000” and (iii) replacing the reference to “Section 7.6(c)(z)” in subclause (B) of clause (a)(iv) with “Section 7.6(c)(z)(ii)”;

(e) amending Section 7.6 of the Credit Agreement by deleting subclause (z) of clause (c) thereof in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“(z) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and to the extent not otherwise expressly permitted in this Section in an aggregate amount (i) for the period from the Closing Date through the day immediately preceding the First Amendment Effective Date, not to exceed $50,000,000 minus the aggregate amount of Investments made during such period and permitted pursuant to Section 7.3(a)(i) that are outstanding at the time of such repurchase or redemption and (ii) for the period from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, not to exceed $50,000,000 minus the aggregate amount of Investments made pursuant to Section 7.3(a)(iv)(B) that are outstanding at the time of such repurchase or redemption”; and

(f) amending Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement by deleting the “With copies to” address for Wells Fargo as Administrative Agent and replacing it with:
