7501 Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 1200E

Bethesda, Maryland 20814

Attention: Stephen Theobald

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This amended and restated letter (this “Side Letter”) sets forth certain fees, commitments and pricing information relating to the agreement among JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as buyer (“Buyer”), Walker & Dunlop, LLC, as seller (“Seller”), and Walker & Dunlop, Inc., as parent (“Parent”), pursuant to which Seller engages Buyer to enter into reverse repurchase arrangements whereby Seller from time to time sells to Buyer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase on a date certain or on demand, certain mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of August 26, 2019 (as supplemented, amended or restated, the “Agreement”) among Buyer, Seller and Parent. This is the “Side Letter” as defined and referenced in the Agreement. Capitalized terms defined in the Agreement and used, but not defined differently, in this Side Letter have the same meanings here as there.

Buyer and Seller agree, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, as follows:

1.             Discretionary Transactions Agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement, Buyer agrees to consider, on an uncommitted and wholly discretionary basis, entering into Transactions from time to time under the Agreement, as supplemented by this Side Letter, with respect to Eligible Mortgage Loans having a maximum Aggregate Purchase Price outstanding at any one time of up to One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000) (such maximum amount, the “Facility Amount”) from the date hereof until the Termination Date.

The Parties agree (1) that:

(x) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(b)(xi) of the Agreement, Buyer may from time to time electively enter into one or more Transactions with Seller; or

(y) another event may occur, or other circumstances may exist;

after which the Aggregate Purchase Price shall be greater than the Facility Amount, and (2) that notwithstanding the occurrence or existence of any such event or circumstances, every Transaction shall be and remain fully subject to all of the other terms and conditions of the Agreement and all other related Transaction Documents and entitled to all benefits thereof.

In addition, the Parties may agree to increase or decrease the Facility Amount to any amount from time to time in the future by executing a letter agreement stating the new Facility Amount and the period of time that it will be in effect. At the time of any reduction in the Facility Amount, whether pursuant to a letter agreement decreasing the Facility Amount or because the time limit for any increase in the Facility Amount shall have expired, Seller shall be obligated, without notice or demand, to make a cash payment to Buyer in an amount equal to the excess of the Aggregate Purchase Price then funded and outstanding over the reduced Facility Amount, to be applied by Buyer to reduce the Repurchase Prices of Purchased Mortgage Loans that are then subject to outstanding Transactions. Neither Parent’s Guaranty nor any other (future) Guaranty, if any, shall be reduced, limited, canceled, terminated or impaired in any way by any such future change in the Facility Amount, whether or not any Guarantor concurrently executes a confirmation of its Guaranty.

2.             Purchase Price.

For purposes of the Agreement and all other Transaction Documents, “Purchase Price” means, on any day and for any Eligible Mortgage Loan, one hundred percent (100%) of the lowest on that day of its (i) Outstanding Principal Balance and (ii) Takeout Value.

3.             Pricing Rate.

For purposes of the Agreement and all other Transaction Documents, the “Pricing Rate” for each Purchased Mortgage Loan for each day during a calendar month shall be the per annum percentage rate equal to the sum of (i) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for that day and (ii) one hundred and forty-five basis points (1.45%); provided that if Buyer, acting in its sole discretion, shall elect from time to time to give Seller a notice specifying a lower Pricing Rate (or Pricing Rates) for a specified time period, such lower Pricing Rate(s) specified in such notice shall be applicable for the time period specified in such notice.

As used herein, the following terms shall have the corresponding definitions:

“Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” means the sum of (a) the Term SOFR Rate, plus (b) the SOFR Adjustment; provided that if the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of calculating such rate.

“Alternate Rate” is defined in Section 3(d) below.

“Benchmark Conforming Changes” means any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Business Day,” the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of Price Differential, timing of Transaction requests, length of lookback periods and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that Buyer decides in its reasonable discretion may be appropriate to reflect the implementation and administration of Pricing Rates based on the Term SOFR Rate, the Alternate Rate or any other interest rate benchmark adopted by Buyer in accordance with the terms hereof and to permit the administration thereof by Buyer in a manner substantially consistent with then-prevailing market practice (or, if Buyer decides that adoption of any portion of such prevailing market practice is not administratively feasible or if Buyer determines that no prevailing market practice for the administration of such interest rate benchmark then exists, in such other manner of administration as Buyer decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Side Letter and the other Transaction Documents).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to SOFR:

(i)               a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the SOFR Administrator announcing that such SOFR Administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Term SOFR Rate, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor SOFR Administrator that will continue to provide the Term SOFR Rate; or

(ii)              a public statement or publication of information by the NYFRB, the Federal Reserve Board, or, as applicable, the regulatory supervisor for the SOFR Administrator, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the SOFR Administrator, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the SOFR Administrator or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the SOFR Administrator, in each case, which states that the SOFR Administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Term SOFR Rate permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Term SOFR Rate; or

(iii)             a public statement or publication of information by the Federal Reserve Board, the NYFRB, the SOFR Administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the SOFR Administrator (as applicable), announcing that the Term SOFR Rate is no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative.

“Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which Buyer is authorized or required by law or regulation to remain closed; provided that, when used in the context of the determination of the Term SOFR Rate, the term “Business Day” shall also exclude any day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in United States government securities.

“Federal Reserve Board” means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America.

“Notice Date” is defined in Section 3(d) below.

“NYFRB” means the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

“SOFR Adjustment” means five basis points (0.05%) per annum.

“SOFR Administrator” means the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited (or a successor administrator of the secured overnight financing rate).

“SOFR Administrator’s Website” means the SOFR Administrator’s website, currently accessed through the website https://www.cmegroup.com, or any successor source for the secured overnight financing rate identified as such by the SOFR Administrator from time to time.

“Term SOFR Rate” means the Term SOFR Screen Rate at approximately 5:00 a.m., Chicago time, two (2) Business Days prior to any date of determination.

“Term SOFR Screen Rate” means, for any day and time, a rate per annum equal to the one month term secured overnight financing rate as published by the SOFR Administrator on the SOFR Administrator’s Website or on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as shall be selected by Buyer in its reasonable discretion; provided that if the Term SOFR Screen Rate as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of calculating such rate.

(c)           Benchmarks; No Liability. The Pricing Rate is derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 3(d) below provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. Buyer does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to the Term SOFR Rate, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. Buyer and its Affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Pricing Rate or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Alternate Rate) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to Seller. Buyer may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Pricing Rate used for the purposes of the Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Side Letter, and shall have no liability to Seller or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

(d)           Alternate Rate of Interest. If a Benchmark Transition Event occurs, Buyer may, by notice to Seller, amend this Side Letter to establish an alternate rate of interest for the Term SOFR Rate that gives due consideration to the then-evolving or prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for loans in US Dollars at such time (the “Alternate Rate”); Seller acknowledges that the Alternate Rate may include a mathematical adjustment using any then-evolving or prevailing market convention or method for determining a spread adjustment for the replacement of the Term SOFR Rate (which may include, if the Term SOFR Rate already contains such a spread, adding that spread to the Alternate Rate). The Alternate Rate, together with all Benchmark Conforming Changes specified in any notice, shall become effective at the later of (i) the fifth (5th) Business Day after Buyer has provided notice (including without limitation for this purpose, by electronic means) to Seller (the “Notice Date”) and (ii) a date specified by Buyer in the notice, without any further action or consent of Seller, so long as Buyer has not received, by 5:00 pm Eastern time on the Notice Date, written notice of objection to the Alternate Rate from Seller. If, on the date the Term SOFR Rate actually becomes permanently unavailable pursuant to a Benchmark Transition Event, an Alternate Rate has not been established in this manner, Transactions will, until an Alternate Rate is so established, accrue Price Differential at the Prime Rate. In no event shall the Alternate Rate be less than zero. All determinations by Buyer under this Section 3(d) shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

(e)           Illegality/Temporary Unavailability. If:

(i)               any applicable domestic or foreign law, treaty, rule or regulation now or later in effect (whether or not it now applies to Buyer) or the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority charged with such interpretation or administration, or compliance by Buyer with any guideline, request or directive of such an authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall make it unlawful or impossible for Buyer to maintain or fund Transactions using a Pricing Rate based on the Term SOFR Rate; or

(ii)              Buyer determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis); or

(iii)            Buyer determines the Term SOFR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Buyer of funding Transactions using a Pricing Rate based on the Term SOFR Rate;

then Buyer shall give notice thereof to Seller as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until Buyer notifies Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Price Differential accruing on any Purchased Mortgage Loan purchased by Buyer in a Transaction whose Repurchase Date has not yet occurred shall accrue, from and after the date of such circumstance or determination to and including the applicable Repurchase Date, at the Alternate Rate (or, if no Alternate Rate has then been established, at the Prime Rate), and (B) any Purchased Mortgage Loan purchased by Buyer in a Transaction whose Purchase Date occurs after the date of such circumstance or determination shall accrue Price Differential at the Alternate Rate (or, if no Alternate Rate has then been established, at the Prime Rate).

In connection with the implementation and/or administration of Pricing Rates based on the Term SOFR Rate, the Alternate Rate or any other interest rate benchmark adopted by Buyer in accordance with the terms hereof, Buyer will have the right to make Benchmark Conforming Changes from time to time upon delivery of written notice thereof to Seller and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of Seller.

4.             Non-Usage Fee.

Seller shall pay to Buyer on each Remittance Date following the end of each whole or partial calendar quarter after the second calendar quarter of 2019, and on the day the Agreement terminates, an amount (the “Non-Usage Fee”) equal to the product of (x) twenty-five basis points (0.25%) multiplied by the number of days in the quarter divided by 360, times (b) the positive result, if any, of subtracting from Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000), the average of the daily balances of Purchase Price outstanding at the end of each day during such (whole or partial) calendar quarter; provided that no Non-Usage Fee shall be due with respect to any quarter for which the average aggregate Purchase Price outstanding during such quarter is equal to or greater than Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000). The Non-Usage Fee, if any, for the quarter in which the Agreement is terminated shall be prorated based on the actual number of days the Agreement is effective during such quarter. Non-Usage Fee payments are not refundable in whole or in part for any reason whatsoever.

5.             Package and Funding Fee.

Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount (the “Package and Funding Fee”) equal to Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250) plus Buyer’s standard wire transfer and shipping fees, as applicable, for each Purchased Mortgage Loan on the next Remittance Date following the applicable Purchase Date.

6.             Change in Facility Amount; Calculation of Fees.

(a)              If the Agreement is amended pursuant to its terms so as to increase or decrease the Facility Amount, all calculations of fees under this Side Letter that are based on the Facility Amount shall be adjusted accordingly as of the date such amendment becomes effective.

(b)              Buyer shall calculate the amounts of the Pricing Rate and the Non-Usage Fee and the results of such calculations shall be incontestable absent manifest error. Buyer shall advise Seller of the periodic amounts of such rate and fees at least one (1) Business Day before payment is due.
