The Correspondent hereby makes to TMHL as of the Effective Date all of the Correspondent’s representations, and warranties set forth in the Guides (other than those representations and warranties that relate only to individual Eligible Loans, which are made or effective as set forth in the Correspondent Sellers Guide) and grants to TMHL the remedies set forth hereunder and in the Guides with respect to a breach of such representations and warranties. The Correspondent also hereby covenants with TMHL that the Correspondent shall continue to comply with all of the Correspondent’s representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the Guides, each Approval Notification Letter and this Agreement. The warranties, obligations and representations stated in the Guides are hereby made or undertaken by the Correspondent with respect to each of the Eligible Loans to be sold and serviced by it on behalf of TMHL, unless expressly waived in writing by TMHL. All warranties made by the Correspondent shall survive (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of TMHL, its assignee or designee, (ii) liquidation of the Eligible Loan, (iii) purchase of the Eligible Loan by TMHL, its designee or assignee, (iv) repurchase of the Eligible Loan by the Correspondent, and (v) termination of this Agreement or similar event, and all such warranties shall inure to the benefit of TMHL.

If, after purchase of any Eligible Loan by TMHL, any of the representations or warranties of the Correspondent contained herein or in the Correspondent Sellers Guide or the Master Servicer Guide are untrue, TMHL may, at its option, without regard to the Correspondent’s actual or implied knowledge of the untruth of such warranty (except to the extent the warranty is expressly conditioned upon the Correspondent’s actual knowledge), in addition to and without limitation as to any other remedy accruing to TMHL, require the Correspondent to repurchase said Eligible Loan pursuant to the Guides. It is contemplated that a third party may purchase from TMHL the Eligible Loans purchased by TMHL from the Correspondent, and the Correspondent agrees that TMHL may, in its own name or in the name of the third party, exercise any rights or remedies at law or in equity on behalf of itself or such third party.

(c)

The Correspondent shall indemnify TMHL and the Master Servicer from and hold TMHL and the Master Servicer harmless against all losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees, and expenses heretofore or hereafter resulting from a material breach of any warranty, obligation or representation contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or from any claim, demand, defense or assertion against or involving TMHL, the Master Servicer or its assignee or transferee of any Eligible Loan based on or grounded upon, or resulting from such breach or a breach of any representation, warranty or obligation made by TMHL in reliance upon any warranty, obligation or representation made by the Correspondent contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement. The Correspondent hereby acknowledges TMHL’s intent to sell the Eligible Loans to third parties in reliance upon the Correspondent’s warranties, obligations and representations. The obligations of the Correspondent under this Section shall survive delivery and payment for the Eligible Loans, liquidation or repurchase of the Eligible Loans and termination of this Agreement or the expiration hereof.

Section 6. Correspondent’s Duties.

The Correspondent shall diligently perform all duties incident to the selling and servicing of all Eligible Loans that may be sold by the Correspondent, from time to time. In the performance of such duties, the Correspondent shall employ procedures and exercise the same care that it would maintain for loans held in its own portfolio and in accordance with standards of practice, diligence, prudence and competence maintained by prudent mortgage lenders in the jurisdiction where the property is located. The Correspondent shall also comply with all of the provisions of the Guides and with all other reasonable requirements and instruction of TMHL and the Master Servicer, as applicable. The Correspondent shall perform such services at its sole expense except as otherwise expressly provided in the Guides. The Correspondent agrees to service each of such Eligible Loans continuously beginning with the Purchase Date for such Eligible Loans until either all interest and principal on each Eligible Loan has been paid in full, the Eligible Loan has been liquidated as provided in the Guides, or such servicing duties are terminated by TMHL or the Master Servicer.

Section 7. Compensation.

Unless otherwise set forth herein, the servicing fees to be paid to Correspondent for each Eligible Loan serviced by the Correspondent shall be set forth in the related Lock In Reservation.

Section 8. Costs and Expenses; Right of Setoff.

(a)

The Correspondent shall pay all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation transfer fees, recording fees, fees for title policy endorsements and continuations, attorneys’ fees and costs associated with the physical delivery and insured shipment of the Mortgage Files to TMHL and/or TMHL’s document custodian(s).

(b)

TMHL and its successors and assigns shall be entitled to setoff against any amount to be paid by it to the Correspondent for such amounts as may be due from the Correspondent under this Agreement.

Section 9. No Solicitation Rights.

Subject to the provisions set forth in this Section 9, from and after the date hereof, neither the Correspondent, nor any of its Affiliates shall solicit, by means of direct mail, or telephonic or personal solicitation, the Mortgagors of any Eligible Loans for purposes of prepayment of such Eligible Loans. Solicitations undertaken by the Correspondent or any affiliate of the Correspondent that are directed to the general public at large (as opposed to directed specifically at the Mortgagors), including without limitation mass mailings based on commercially acquired mailing lists, and newspaper, radio and television advertisements, shall not constitute solicitation under this Section 9.

TMHL shall not solicit the customers of Correspondent by means of direct mail, telephone or personal solicitation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, solicitations undertaken by TMHL or any affiliate that are directed to the general public at large (as opposed to directed specifically at the Mortgagors,) including without limitation mass mailings based on commercially acquired mailing lists, and newspaper, radio and television advertisements, shall not constitute solicitation under this Section 9.

Section 10. Conditions to Purchase.

The obligations of TMHL to purchase any Eligible Loans are subject to the satisfaction prior to or on each applicable Purchase Date (or on such other date as expressly provided for herein) of the following conditions, any one or more of which may be waived in writing by TMHL:

(a)

All of the representations and warranties of the Correspondent set forth in the Guides shall be true and correct as of the applicable Purchase Date, and no event shall have occurred which, with notice or the passage of time, would constitute a Default or breach under this Agreement or under the Guides.

(b)

On each Purchase Date, TMHL shall have received the documents and instruments required to be delivered to TMHL on or before such Purchase Date pursuant to the Guides, duly executed by all signatories other than TMHL as required pursuant to the respective terms thereof.

(c)

All other terms and conditions to be performed on or prior to the applicable Purchase Date (or such other date as expressly provided for herein) by the Correspondent shall have been duly complied with and performed in all respects pursuant to this Agreement, the applicable Approval Notification Letter and the Guides.

Section 11. Termination or Suspension Upon Default.

(a)

Upon the occurrence of a Default hereunder or under the Correspondent Sellers Guide or a default under the Master Servicer Guide as defined therein under either of the Guides, TMHL shall have the right, at its option and in its sole discretion, to immediately suspend or terminate the selling privileges of the Correspondent under this Agreement, in addition to whatever rights TMHL may have at law or in equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance. In the event TMHL or the Correspondent suspends or terminates the selling privileges under this Agreement, the Correspondent shall not be relieved of its servicing obligations unless expressly terminated in accordance with this Agreement, the Correspondent Sellers Guide or the Master Servicer Guide nor shall the Correspondent be relieved of its other obligations with respect to Eligible Loans previously purchased by TMHL including, without limitation, representations and warranties made herein and in the Correspondent Sellers Guide. TMHL may also immediately terminate the selling privileges during or after a suspension of the selling privileges. A termination of this Agreement or suspension or termination of the selling privileges of the Correspondent due to a Default shall also terminate or suspend any outstanding obligations of TMHL as evidenced by Approval Notification Letters to purchase Eligible Loans from the Correspondent. TMHL may waive any Default, and upon any waiver, such Default shall cease to exist. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereto except to the extent expressly waived. Suspension or termination of the selling privileges of the Correspondent or this Agreement shall not imply any termination of servicing.

(b)

TMHL may terminate the servicing rights and obligations of the Correspondent in accordance with this Agreement, the Correspondent Sellers Guide or the Master Guide. Notwithstanding the prior sentence, in no event may the servicing rights and obligations of the Correspondent be terminated without cause.

Section 12. Master Servicer.

Correspondent acknowledges that TMHL has appointed the Master Servicer as its master servicer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, TMHL shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to appoint and designate (such action, the “Appointment”) another master servicer as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Correspondent (in either case, a “Master Servicer”), as master servicer of some or all of the Eligible Loans then subject to this Agreement. The Correspondent shall service to, remit to, and report to, the Master Servicer, all in accordance with the terms of the Master Servicer Guide and the servicing provisions set forth in this Agreement. The Correspondent shall execute any agreements, certificates and documents reasonably requested by the Master Servicer or TMHL to carry out the terms of this Section 12.

Upon the Appointment, the Correspondent shall correspond and communicate solely with the Master Servicer, as if the Master Servicer were “TMHL” hereunder. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall have all rights as designee of TMHL to enforce the representations and warranties, and all other covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and the Correspondent shall follow the instructions of the Master Servicer under this Agreement as if such instructions were the instructions of TMHL. The Master Servicer shall have the right to give any waivers or consents required or allowed under this Agreement on behalf of TMHL, and shall furthermore be empowered to enter into and execute and deliver any amendments or modifications to this Agreement as TMHL’s designee hereunder, and such amendments or modifications shall be binding upon TMHL as if TMHL had executed and delivered the same. All amounts due TMHL under this Agreement shall be remitted to the Master Servicer in accordance with the Master Servicer’s instructions.

From and after the Appointment of the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 12 until the Master Servicer Termination (as defined below) the Correspondent shall be required to recognize and deal with the Master Servicer under this Agreement.

The Correspondent shall treat the Master Servicer as TMHL under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12 unless and until the Correspondent receives written notice from TMHL under this Agreement TMHL has terminated the Master Servicer (such notice, the “Master Servicer Termination”). Upon receipt of the Master Servicer Termination, the Correspondent shall no longer recognize or deal with the Master Servicer as TMHL’s designee hereunder, but shall instead deal directly with TMHL or such other designee appointed by TMHL by Appointment in accordance with this Section. From and after the receipt of the Master Servicer Termination, the Correspondent shall service the Eligible Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 13. Miscellaneous Provisions.

In connection therewith, the Correspondent shall provide to TMHL and any trustee, trust, third party purchaser or credit risk manager in connection with a Pass-Through Transfer, as the case may be: (i) any and all information and appropriate verification of information which may be reasonably available to the Correspondent, whether through letters of its auditors and counsel or otherwise, as such parties shall reasonably request; and, (ii) such additional opinions of counsel, letters from auditors, and certificates of public officials or officers of the Correspondent as are reasonably believed necessary by such parties or any master servicer or any rating agency, as the case may be, in connection with such transactions. TMHL shall provide the Correspondent with notice with respect to any such Pass-Through Transfer (each, a “Transfer Notice”), including a schedule of Eligible Loans which have been transferred and the effective date of the Pass-Through Transfer (the “Effective Date”).

(i)

Other Agreements Superseded. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

(j)

No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto, and at all times the Correspondent shall act and represent itself solely as an independent contractor of TMHL and not an agent of TMHL.

(k)

Attorney’s Fees. In the event of a dispute arising from or concerning an obligation of the Correspondent or TMHL under this Agreement which results in litigation of the issue, the prevailing party to such litigation shall be indemnified by the other party for all costs and expenses in bringing or defending such action.

TMHL shall be entitled to rely, without investigation, that any person holding themselves out to be a representative of the Correspondent for purposes of signing this Agreement or any other document delivered in connection with this Agreement or taking other action pursuant to the Agreement including but not limited to oral discussions was, at the respective times of such signing or actions, a duly elected or appointed, qualified and authorized representative of the Correspondent, and the execution or deliver of the Agreement or any document pursuant to the Agreement and the taking of any other actions, including but not limited to oral discussions, shall be conclusive evidence of such authorization.

TMHL will allow Correspondent to deliver loans for purchase as outlined in Section III of this Correspondent Sellers Guide or as agreed to in Exhibit D of the Amended and Restated Correspondent Loan Purchase Agreement.

Section IV

PROPERTY ELIGIBILITY

Condominiums and Planned Unit Developments

All loans secured by Condominiums or Planned Unit Developments (PUD) require a warranty letter and a Homeowner’s Association (HOA) Certification. The Correspondent’s warranty letter and HOA Certification are acceptable, provided that all of Fannie Mae’s requirements are met.

Condominium and PUD projects must be established for “spot financing”. New projects will require acceptable project approval prior to submission for purchase.

Section V

REAL ESTATE APPRAISERS

TMHL does not approve appraisers. The Correspondent is required to have in place an appraiser program or must provide Uniform Residential Appraisal Reports from appraisers holding appropriate state licenses and/or state certifications. Appraisers holding Provisional Licenses are required to obtain the signature of an unconditionally licensed appraiser.

If a review of the appraisal report is required, the review appraiser must be state licensed and/or state certified. A review of the appraisal may be required for mortgage loans greater than $750,000 to make the loan eligible for purchase. Only one review appraisal may be ordered per loan.

Section VI

GENERAL PROGRAM GUIDELINES (Paragraph 4)

Except as provided in the terms of those certain home equity lines of credit (HELOC) loans approved by First Republic Bank, subordinate financing is acceptable on any transactions when the subject loan is in first lien position (FULL/ALT documentation level only), provided, however, that the combined LTV shall not exceed 80%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to purchase money mortgages only, the LTV may be 80/10/10. The second lien must be recorded and clearly subordinate to the subject loan. It must provide for regular payments that cover at least the interest due for the period and contain no provision for negative amortization, future advances, or wrap-around terms. The subordinate lien must be considered in the calculation of the DSI ratio for the subject loan. The minimum term of a subordinate loan must be at least five years. Credit documents must be no more than 90 days old at the time of TMHL approval or more than 120 days old at time of purchase.

Section VI

GENERAL PROGRAM GUIDELINES (Paragraph 5)

TMHL will only purchase mortgages made to natural persons who have reached the age of majority as defined in the jurisdiction where the subject property is located or in the name of an Inter Vivos (Living) Trust. Mortgages made to corporations, partnerships, other trusts, etc. are unacceptable.

Section VI

GENERAL PROGRAM GUIDELINES (Last Paragraph)

An Eligible Loan must be re-underwritten by the Correspondent and a new Underwriter’s Certification must be issued if any of the following terms of the Eligible Loan change between the time the original Underwriter’s Certificate is issued and the closing of the Eligible Loan:

(1)

Any change greater or lesser than 5% of the Principal Balance;

(2)

An increase of the interest rate by more than .50%;

(3)

Any increase in the LTV causing a new LTV in excess of 80%; and

(4)

Any other material change in terms of the Eligible Loan.

A new rate lock may be needed on any loan amount change in excess of 5%, at the sole discretion of TMHL.

Section VII

INCOME VERIFICATION

Credit Verification

Credit reports must contain a report from at least three national repositories (tri-merge) and must include a public record search. Credit history must be reviewed for the 24 months preceding the loan application.

The monthly payments as reflected on the credit report will be used to calculate the DSI ratio. If no monthly payment is indicated or if other form of verification is not provided, 5% of the outstanding principal balance on the account will be used. Outstanding installment debts with less than 10 months remaining and debts to be paid off at closing do not have to be used in calculating the DSI ratio. Pay-downs to less than 10 months are not allowed on revolving credit simply to avoid inclusion of the debt in the DSI ratio.

Co-signed debts will not be counted in the DSI ratio if sufficient proof is provided that the primary debtor makes the payments. A minimum of six consecutive months of cancelled checks may be required from the primary debtor evidencing the proper payment amount payable to the proper creditor. If any late payments occurred, they will not be counted against them in the credit rating. If divorce documents state the ex-spouse is responsible for debt, late payments will not count as a debt or lates and Borrower must provide a copy of recorded quit claim deed from the ex-spouse.

Section XI

DOCUMENTATION STACK ORDER AND FOLLOW-UP POLICY

Follow-Up Document Policy

All follow-up documents such as title policies, endorsements and assignments thereof, recorded security instruments and recorded assignments must be delivered to TMHL or their designated Custodian within 90 days of loan purchase, which may be extended for an additional 60 days upon request of Correspondent. For any loan file not completed within this 90-day period, Correspondent shall indemnify TMHL for any actual direct costs or losses due to failure to meet such time frames.

Section XII

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Loan Level

(3)

The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings, fixtures, installations, and improvements to the Mortgaged Property, and the Mortgaged Property is free and clear of all encumbrances and liens having parity with or priority over the first lien of the Mortgage except for liens for current real estate taxes, water, sewer and municipal charges not yet due and payable and special assessments not yet due and payable and security agreements, chattel mortgages, or equivalent documents related to the Mortgage. Each Mortgaged Property is owned by the Mortgagor in fee simple (except with respect to common areas in the case of condominiums, PUDs and de minimus PUDs) or by a leasehold for a term at least 10 years longer than the term of the related Mortgage.

(11)

All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are, (or during the period in which they hold and disposed of such interest, were) (i) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the Laws of such state, and (ii) (A) organized under the Laws of such state, (B) qualified to do business in such state, (C) not doing business in such state, or (D) not required to qualify to do business in such state.

(13)

On or prior to the subject Closing Date, the Correspondent has delivered originals or certified true copies of each of the Documents with respect to such Eligible Loan. Not later than 90 days after the subject Closing Date, the Correspondent will deliver originals of all such Documents not so previously delivered, with evidence of recording thereon. The Correspondent is in possession of a complete Mortgage File with respect to such Eligible Loan containing all of the documents and instruments specified to be included therein, except those documents and instruments delivered on or prior to the subject Closing Date or required to be delivered to TMHL not later than 90 days after the subject Closing Date, and there are no custodial agreements in effect adversely affecting the right or ability of the Correspondent to make the deliveries of such documents. Each of the documents with respect to such Eligible Loan is duly executed, in due and proper form, and in form acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Should Correspondent desire to use documents not included above (i.e., Libor forms) they may be submitted to TMHL for its prior approval.

(19)

All improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, by an insurer that substantially complies with Fannie Mae guidelines and licensed to do business in the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located. If the Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available), such Mortgaged Property is covered by flood insurance in accordance with applicable laws, including without limitation the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994. Each individual insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of TMHL, including any trustee acting on its behalf, upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Guide and the Correspondent Loan Purchase Agreement and contain a standard Mortgagee clause naming the Correspondent, its successors and assigns, as mortgagee and loss payee. All premiums thereon have been paid. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and upon the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor and the Correspondent has not acted or failed to act so as to impair the coverage of any such insurance policy or the validity, binding effect, and enforceability thereof.

(23)

If, at the time that such Eligible Loan was originated the Mortgagor represented that the Mortgagor would occupy the Mortgaged Property as the Mortgagor’s primary residence and the Correspondent has no reason to believe that such representation of the Mortgagor is no longer true except as set forth on the Correspondent Loan Lock-In Reservation (Exhibit A).

(27)

The Mortgagor owns a fee simple interest in the Mortgaged Property which consists of a parcel of real property upon which is erected a one to four-family dwelling, an individual condominium unit in a condominium, or an individual unit in a planned unit development provided, however, that any condominium unit or planned unit development shall conform with the applicable Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA and VA requirements regarding such dwellings, as applicable. The Mortgaged Property is occupied by and titled in the name of the Mortgagor, who is a natural person or the trustee of an inter vivos living trust, as the Mortgagor’s principal place of residence.

(47)

Correspondent has obtained a life of loan, transferable flood certification contract for such Eligible Loan.

SECTION XIII

REMEDIES FOR BREACH OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES (Paragraph 2)

Upon discovery by the Correspondent or TMHL, either (i) of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in the Correspondent Loan Purchase Agreement or (ii) that any document constituting part of any Mortgage File is missing, mutilated, damaged, defaced, incomplete, improperly dated, forged, otherwise physically altered, or otherwise defective in any material respect, the discovering party shall give prompt written notice to the others of such breach or defect. The Correspondent shall use its best efforts to promptly cure in all material respects any such breach or defect within sixty (60) days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Correspondent of such breach or defect, and, if such breach or defect cannot be or is not cured within such 60-day period, the Correspondent shall, at the option of TMHL, repurchase such of the Eligible Loans selected by TMHL, so that, after such repurchase, such breach or defect is cured in all material respects. Any such repurchase shall be at the Eligible Loan Repurchase Price. If the Correspondent is servicing the Eligible Loan for TMHL, any such repurchase shall be accomplished by the deposit in the Collection Account of the amount of the repurchase price and notice to TMHL. If the Correspondent has sold the Eligible Loan to TMHL servicing released, the Correspondent shall deliver the Eligible Loan Repurchase Price to TMHL by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by TMHL.

SECTION XIV

SERVICING OF ELIGIBLE LOANS

Paragraph A(7)

Notwithstanding Section 616.1 of the Wells Fargo Master Servicing Guide, Servicer is obligated to pay the Master Servicer Month End Interest for the Prepayment Period in which a Prepayment in Full is applied calculated in an amount equal to 30 days of interest on the amount of the Prepayment in Full at the related Mortgage Interest Rate provided, however, that such Month End Interest shall not exceed the aggregate servicing fees accrued with respect to the Eligible Loans during such month. The payment of Month End Interest by Servicer shall not be considered an advance and shall not be recoverable from the proceeds of any Eligible Loan.

Paragraph B(6)

Notwithstanding Section 833 of the Wells Fargo Master Servicing Guide, the Agreement with respect to Securitized Loan held in a Trust shall terminate upon: (i) the later of (a) the distribution of the final payment or liquidation proceeds on the last Eligible Loan to such Trust (or advances by the Servicer for the same), and (b) the disposition of all related REO Property acquired with respect to the Trust upon foreclosure of the last Eligible Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder or (ii) mutual consent of the Servicer, Owner and the related Trust Master Servicer in writing. Any such notice of termination shall be in writing and delivered to the Servicer by registered mail to the address set forth in the Agreement. The related Trust Master Servicer, the related Trustee and the Servicer shall comply with the termination procedures set forth in Chapter 8.
