Section 2.10 Requirements of Law.

If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10, Seller shall pay such additional amounts to Buyer, and Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to mutually agree upon modified terms to this Agreement to account for such future additional amounts. If Seller and Buyer cannot agree upon such modified terms within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s notice to Seller of such changed circumstances, then Seller (i) may terminate this Agreement, and (ii) if it so elects to terminate this Agreement, shall immediately remit the Repurchase Price and any other amounts due and payable hereunder.

(b) If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10, it shall promptly notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

Section 2.11 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of Seller under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreements to which Seller is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, unless required by law.

(b) In addition, Seller hereby agrees to pay any Other Taxes.

(c) Seller hereby agrees to indemnify Buyer for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or Buyer (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.11 and any

liability including penalties, additions to tax, interest and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto).

Amounts payable by Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.11(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which Buyer makes written demand therefor and provides reasonable supporting documentation in support of such demand.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller hereunder, each party’s obligations contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Program Agreements.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall and shall cause Buyer to deliver to Seller, at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller as will permit payments made hereunder to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall and shall cause Buyer, if reasonably requested by Seller, to deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller as will enable Seller to determine whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Buyer is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.11, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation in Section 2.11(e)(A), (B) and (C) below) shall not be required if in Buyer’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Buyer to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Buyer.

provided that if such non-U.S. person is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such non-U.S. person are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such non-U.S. person may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner, and (IV) executed originals of any other form or supplementary documentation prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(C) if a payment made to Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or assignee or participant were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Buyer or assignee or participant shall deliver to Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Seller as may be necessary for Seller to comply with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.11(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

The applicable IRS forms referred to above shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant on or prior to the date on which such person becomes Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under this Agreement, as the case may be, and upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any IRS form previously delivered by it hereunder.

under the Program Agreements to the extent not otherwise included under the definitions of Primary Repurchase Assets or Repurchase Rights (such collateral, “Additional Repurchase Assets,” and collectively with the Primary Repurchase Assets and the Repurchase Rights, the “Repurchase Assets”). Seller agrees to mark its records to evidence the interests granted to Buyer hereunder.

(d) Seller hereby delivers an irrevocable instruction to the buyer under any Repurchase Document that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default under this Agreement, the buyer thereunder is authorized and instructed to (i) remit to Buyer hereunder directly any amounts otherwise payable to Seller and (ii) deliver to Buyer all collateral otherwise deliverable to Seller, to the extent all obligations then due and owing under such Other Repurchase Agreement have been paid in full. In furtherance of the foregoing, upon repayment of the outstanding purchase price under any Other Repurchase Agreement and termination of all obligations of the Seller thereunder or other termination of the related Repurchase Documents following repayment of all obligations thereunder, the related buyer under any Repurchase Document is hereby instructed to deliver to Buyer hereunder any collateral (as such term may be defined under the related Repurchase Documents) then in its possession or control.

The subordinate pledge set forth in this clause (e) shall automatically terminate with respect to an Other Repurchase Agreement if the Buyer or the other buyer thereunder is no longer CSFB, CSCIB, or any Affiliates thereof.

(f) The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.02 are intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder as defined under Sections 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 4.03 Further Documentation. At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Buyer, and at the sole expense of Seller, Seller will promptly and duly execute and deliver, or will promptly cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments

and documents and take such further action as Buyer may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any applicable jurisdiction with respect to the Liens created hereby. Seller also hereby authorizes Buyer to file any such financing or continuation statement to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 4.04 Changes in Locations, Name, etc. Seller shall not (a) change the location of its chief executive office/chief place of business from that specified in Section 3.17 or (b) change its name or identity, unless it shall have given Buyer at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to Buyer all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as Buyer shall reasonably request and taken all other actions deemed necessary by Buyer to continue its perfected status in the Repurchase Assets with the same or better priority.

Section 4.05 Performance by Buyer of Seller’s Obligations. If Seller fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained in the Program Agreements and such failure constitutes a default hereunder, Buyer may itself perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement, the reasonable (under the circumstances) out-of-pocket expenses of Buyer actually incurred in connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Pricing Rate shall be payable by Seller to Buyer on demand and shall constitute Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) prior to a default becoming an Event of Default hereunder, the Buyer shall not act on the Seller’s behalf pursuant to this Section 4.05 unless (a) it has provided notice to Seller of its intent to act, (b) allowed the Seller the lesser of (i) the applicable cure period for such default hereunder or (ii) three (3) Business Days to investigate the default, and (c) the Seller has failed to advise the Buyer within such applicable period of its good faith efforts which are reasonably anticipated to cure such default prior to it becoming an Event of Default.

Section 4.06 Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (a) all proceeds of Repurchase Assets received by Seller consisting of cash, checks and other liquid assets readily convertible to cash items shall be held by Seller in trust for Buyer, segregated from other funds of Seller, and shall forthwith upon receipt by Seller be turned over to Buyer in the exact form received by Seller and (b) any and all such proceeds received by Buyer (whether from Seller or otherwise) may, in the sole discretion of Buyer, be held by Buyer as collateral security for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by Buyer against, the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), such application to be in such order as Buyer shall elect. Any balance of such proceeds remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated shall be paid over to Seller or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

Section 4.07 Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Buyer may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (including Buyer’s rights to a strict foreclosure under Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer may seek the appointment of a receiver, liquidator,

conservator, trustee, or similar official in respect of Seller or any of Seller’s property. Buyer without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required under this Agreement or by law referred to below) to or upon Seller or any other Person (each and all of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Repurchase Assets or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as an entirety at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Buyer or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Repurchase Assets so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released. Seller further agrees, at Buyer’s request, to assemble the Repurchase Assets and make them available to Buyer at places which Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at Seller’s premises or elsewhere. Buyer shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable (under the circumstances) out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Repurchase Assets or in any way relating to the Repurchase Assets or the rights of Buyer hereunder, including reasonable external attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order as Buyer may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by Buyer of any other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including Section 9-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code, need Buyer account for the surplus, if any, to Seller. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against Buyer arising out of the exercise by Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Buyer. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Repurchase Assets shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition. Seller shall remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as contemplated herein) if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Repurchase Assets are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements in amounts reasonable under the circumstances, of any external attorneys engaged by Buyer to collect such deficiency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Program Agreements, the remedies set forth in this Section 4.07 concerning any actions with respect to the MSRs arising under or related to any Servicing Contract shall be subject to the Acknowledgment Agreement entered into with Ginnie Mae.

Section 4.08 Limitation on Duties Regarding Preservation of Repurchase Assets. Buyer’s duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Repurchase Assets in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Buyer deals with similar property for its own account. Neither Buyer nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Repurchase Assets or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Repurchase Assets upon the request of Seller or otherwise.

Section 4.09 Powers Coupled with an Interest. All authorizations and agencies herein contained with respect to the Repurchase Assets are irrevocable and powers coupled with an interest.

Section 4.10 Release of Security Interest. Upon the latest to occur of (a) the repayment to Buyer of all Obligations hereunder, and (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, Buyer shall release its security interest in any remaining Repurchase Assets hereunder and shall promptly execute and deliver to Seller such documents or instruments as Seller shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

Section 4.11 Reinstatement. All security interests created by this Article IV shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation of Seller is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervener or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as if such release had not been made.

Section 4.12 Subordination. Seller shall not seek in any Insolvency Event of the Issuer to be treated as part of the same class of creditors as Buyer and shall not oppose any pleading or motion by Buyer advocating that Buyer and Seller should be treated as separate classes of creditors. Seller acknowledges and agrees that its rights with respect to the Repurchase Assets are and shall continue to be at all times junior and subordinate to the rights of Buyer under this Agreement.

Section 10.06 Severability. 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. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 10.07 Section Headings. The Article and Section headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the

same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.09 Periodic Due Diligence Review. Seller acknowledges that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to Seller and the Purchased Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agree that upon reasonable (but no less than five (5) Business Days’) prior written notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the ordinary conduct of Seller’s business, to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession or under the control of Seller, subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and the other Program Agreements. Seller also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Purchased Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may enter into a Transaction related to any Purchased Assets from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Asset 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 Purchased Assets related to a Transaction. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of Seller. So long as an Event of Default shall not have occurred and be continuing, all on-site inspections pursuant to this Section 10.08 (together with any on-site inspections performed pursuant to the Indenture or any other Program Agreements) shall be limited to one (1) per calendar year, and any costs related thereto (together with any on-site inspections performed pursuant to the Indenture or any other Program Agreements) shall not exceed $[***] (any additional cost shall not be deemed a reimbursable Expense hereunder).

Section 10.10 Hypothecation or Pledge of Repurchase Assets. Buyer shall have free and unrestricted use of all Repurchase Assets and nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating all or a portion of the Repurchase Assets; provided that prior to an Event of Default, such pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation is treated as a financing or hedging transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes or a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyer under this Agreement; provided, further that other than with respect to a pro rata interest in all payments due to Buyer under this Agreement and prior to an Event of Default Buyer receives an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters that such repurchase transaction, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecation or rehypothecation will not result in the Issuer being subject to tax on its net income as an association (or publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation or a taxable mortgage pool taxable as a corporation, each for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided, further, that nothing under this Section 10.10 shall relieve the Buyer of its obligations to

transfer Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets to Seller (and not substitutions thereof) pursuant to the terms hereof.

Section 10.11 Confidentiality; Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment.

(a) This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Buyer or Seller, as applicable and shall be held by each party hereto, as applicable in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Buyer or Seller, except for (i) disclosure to Buyer’s or Seller’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 Agreements, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without 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 no party may disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Buyer or Seller or any pricing terms (including the Pricing Rate, the Purchase Price Percentage or the Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits) 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 affected party.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Repurchase Assets and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”). Each party hereto 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 “GLB Act”), and agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws. Each party hereto 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 GLB Act) of each other party hereto and their Affiliates which such party 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. Each party shall implement appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the GLB Act and of the applicable standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect. Upon request, each party hereto will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other party to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this Section 10.11. Without limitation, this may include review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations (in each case to the extent the party asked to disclose such information has the authority to do so). Each party shall notify the other party immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of the other party or its Affiliates, to the extent such information was provided directly to the notifying

party by such affected party or its Affiliate. Each party experiencing such material breach or compromise shall provide such notice by electronic mail or by personal delivery, by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the other party.

Section 10.12 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer shall have the right during the continuation of an Event of Default, without prior notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller 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 funds to Seller), 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 Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller or any Affiliate thereof. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller after any such set off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Section 10.13 Intent.

(a) The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code.

(b) It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 7.03 is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and Section 561 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

(c) 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).

(d) 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).

(e) This Agreement is intended to be a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 555 under the Bankruptcy Code, and a “master netting agreement,” within the meaning of Section 561 under the Bankruptcy Code.

(f) It is the intention of the parties that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for accounting purposes, each Transaction constitute a financing with Seller incurring an

indebtedness, and that Seller be (except to the extent that Buyer shall have exercised its remedies following an Event of Default) the owner of the Purchased Assets for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Seller and Buyer shall treat the Transactions as described in the preceding sentence (including on any and all filings with any U.S. federal, state, or local taxing authority and agree not to take any action inconsistent with such treatment).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Seller and Buyer have caused this Master Repurchase Agreement to be executed and delivered by their duly authorized officers or trustees as of the date first above written.
