This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”) contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “potential,” “intend,” “expect,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximately,” “believe,” “could,” “project,” “predict,” “continue,” “plan” or other similar words or expressions. 

 

Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions, discuss future expectations, describe future plans and strategies, contain financial and operating projections or state other forward-looking information. Examples of forward-looking statements include the following:

projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital structure or other financial items;
descriptions of our plans or objectives for future operations, products or services;
forecasts of our future economic performance, interest rates, profit margins and our share of future markets; and
descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing expectations regarding the timing of generating any revenues.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, our actual results and performance could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control that could cause actual results to differ significantly from management’s expectations. Some of these factors are discussed below.

 

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the following uncertainties and risks, as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Report and the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2020.

 

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated include, but are not limited to:

our exposure to risks of loss resulting from adverse weather conditions, man-made or natural disasters, the effect of climate change, and pandemics, such as COVID-19;

the continually changing federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to the highly regulated industry in which we operate;

lawsuits or governmental actions if we do not comply with the laws and regulations applicable to our businesses;

the mortgage lending and servicing-related regulations promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) and its enforcement of these regulations;

our dependence on U.S. government-sponsored entities and changes in their current roles or their guarantees or guidelines;

changes to government mortgage modification programs;

foreclosure delays and changes in foreclosure practices;

the licensing and operational requirements of states and other jurisdictions applicable to our businesses, to which our bank competitors are not subject;

our ability to manage third-party service providers and vendors and their compliance with laws, regulations and investor requirements;

changes in macroeconomic and U.S. real estate market conditions;

difficulties inherent in growing loan production volume;

difficulties inherent in adjusting the size of our operations to reflect changes in business levels;

maintaining sufficient capital and liquidity to support business growth including compliance with financial covenants;

changes in prevailing interest rates;

increases in loan delinquencies and defaults;

our reliance on PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT”) as a significant source of financing for, and revenue related to, our mortgage banking business;

our obligation to indemnify third-party purchasers or repurchase loans if loans that we originate, acquire, service or assist in the fulfillment of, fail to meet certain criteria or characteristics or under other circumstances;

our exposure to counterparties that are unwilling or unable to honor contractual obligations, including their obligation to indemnify us or repurchase defective mortgage loans;

our ability to realize the anticipated benefit of potential future acquisitions of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”);

our obligation to indemnify PMT if our services fail to meet certain criteria or characteristics or under other circumstances;

decreases in the returns on the assets that we select and manage for our clients, and our resulting management and incentive fees;

the extensive amount of regulation applicable to our investment management segment;

conflicts of interest in allocating our services and investment opportunities among ourselves and PMT;

the effect of public opinion on our reputation;

our recent growth;

our ability to effectively identify, manage, monitor and mitigate financial risks;

our initiation of new business activities or expansion of existing business activities;

our ability to detect misconduct and fraud;

our ability to effectively deploy new information technology applications and infrastructure;

our ability to mitigate cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents;

our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders; and

our organizational structure and certain requirements in our charter documents.

Other factors that could also cause results to differ from our expectations may not be described in this Report or any other document.  Each of these factors could by itself, or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our business, results of operations and/or financial condition.

 

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the date the forward-looking statement was made.

Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) as codified in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for interim financial information and with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements and notes do not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. This interim consolidated information should be read together with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, income, and cash flows for the interim periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of income to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2020. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Preparation of financial statements in compliance with GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results will likely differ from those estimates.

Certain asset amounts separately presented in prior periods have been reclassified to Other assets to conform to the current period presentation. Such amounts are detailed in Note 11—Other Assets.

The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated statements of income, stockholder’s equity or cash flows.

Note 3—Concentration of Risk

A substantial portion of the Company’s activities relate to PMT. Revenues generated from PMT (generally comprised of gains on loans held for sale, loan origination and fulfillment fees, loan servicing fees, change in fair value of excess servicing spread financing (“ESS”), net interest, management fees, and change in fair value of investment in and dividends received from PMT) totaled 7% and 32% of total net revenue for the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 12% and 31% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Operating Activities

Mortgage Loan Production Activities and MSR Recapture

The Company sells newly originated loans to PMT under a mortgage loan purchase agreement. The Company has typically utilized the mortgage loan purchase agreement for the purpose of selling to PMT conforming balance non-government insured or guaranteed loans, as well as prime jumbo residential mortgage loans.

Through June 30, 2020, pursuant to the terms of an MSR recapture agreement by and between the Company and PMT, if the Company refinanced mortgage loans for which PMT previously held the MSRs, the Company was generally required to transfer and convey to PMT cash in an amount equal to 30% of the fair market value of the MSRs related to all such mortgage loans. On June 30, 2020, the MSR recapture agreement was amended and restated for a term of five years (the “2020 MSR Recapture Agreement”).

Effective July 1, 2020, the 2020 MSR Recapture agreement changes the recapture fee payable by the Company to a tiered amount equal to:

40% of the fair market value of the MSRs relating to the recaptured loans subject to the first 15% of the “recapture rate”;
35% of the fair market value of the MSRs relating to the recaptured loans subject to the recapture rate in excess of 15% and up to 30%; and
30% of the fair market value of the MSRs relating to the recaptured loans subject to the recapture rate in excess of 30%.

The “recapture rate” means, during each month, the ratio of (i) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all recaptured loans, to (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all mortgage loans for which the Company held the MSRs and that were refinanced or otherwise paid off in such month. The Company has further agreed to allocate sufficient resources to target a recapture rate of 15%.

The Company provides PMT with certain mortgage banking services, including fulfillment and disposition-related services, for which it receives a monthly fulfillment fee.

10

Table of Contents

Through June 30, 2020, pursuant to the terms of a mortgage banking services agreement, the monthly fulfillment fee was an amount equal to:

a) no greater than the product of (i) 0.35% and (ii) the aggregate initial unpaid principal balance (the “Initial UPB”) of all mortgage loans purchased in such month, plus
b) in the case of all mortgage loans other than mortgage loans sold to or securitized through Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, no greater than the product of (i) 0.50% and (ii) the aggregate Initial UPB of all such mortgage loans sold and securitized in such month; provided, however, that no fulfillment fee was due or payable to the Company with respect to any mortgage loans underwritten to the Ginnie Mae Mortgage-Backed Securities (“MBS”) Guide.

PMT does not hold the Ginnie Mae approval required to issue Ginnie Mae MBS and act as a servicer. Accordingly, under the agreement, the Company purchases mortgage loans underwritten in accordance with the Ginnie Mae MBS Guide “as is” and without recourse of any kind from PMT at PMT’s cost less an administrative fee plus accrued interest and, through June 30, 2020, a sourcing fee ranging from two to three and one-half basis points, generally based on the average number of calendar days mortgage loans are held by PMT before being purchased by the Company. While the Company purchases these mortgage loans “as is” and without recourse of any kind from PMT, where the Company has a claim for repurchase, indemnity or otherwise against a correspondent seller, it is entitled, at its sole expense, to pursue any such claim through or in the name of PMT.

Effective July 1, 2020, the fulfillment fees and sourcing fees were revised as follows:

Fulfillment fees shall not exceed the following:
(i) the number of loan commitments multiplied by a pull-through factor of either .99 or .80 depending on whether the loan commitments are subject to a “mandatory trade confirmation” or a “best efforts lock confirmation”, respectively, and then multiplied by $585 for each pull-through adjusted loan commitment up to and including 16,500 per quarter and $355 for each pull-through adjusted loan commitment in excess of 16,500 per quarter, plus
(ii) $315 multiplied by the number of purchased loans up to the and including 16,500 per quarter and $195 multiplied by the number of purchased loans in excess of 16,500 per quarter, plus
(iii) $750 multiplied by the number of all purchased loans that are sold or securitized to parties other than Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; provided however, that no fulfillment fee shall be due or payable to PLS with respect to any Ginnie Mae loans.

Sourcing fees charged to PLS range from one to two basis points, generally based on the average number of calendar days the loans are held by PMT before purchase by PLS.

Loan Servicing

The Company and PMT have entered into a loan servicing agreement (the “Servicing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company provides servicing for PMT’s portfolio of residential mortgage loans and subservicing for its portfolio of MSRs. The Servicing Agreement provides for servicing fees of per-loan monthly amounts based on the delinquency, bankruptcy and/or foreclosure status of the serviced loan or the real estate acquired in settlement of loans (“REO”). The Company also remains entitled to customary ancillary income and market-based fees and charges relating to loans it services for PMT. These include boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition fees, assumption, modification and origination fees and a percentage of late charges.

Prime Servicing

The base servicing fees for non-distressed loans are calculated through a monthly per-loan dollar amount, with the actual dollar amount for each loan based on whether the loan is a fixed-rate or adjustable-rate loan. The base servicing fee rates are $7.50 per month for fixed-rate loans and $8.50 per month for adjustable-rate loans.

To the extent that non-distressed loans become delinquent, the Company is entitled to an additional servicing fee per loan ranging from $10 to $55 per month and based on the delinquency, bankruptcy and foreclosure status of the loan or $75 per month if the underlying mortgaged property becomes REO. The Company is also entitled to customary ancillary income and certain market-based fees and charges, including boarding and deboarding fees, liquidation and disposition fees, assumption, modification and origination fees.

Effective July 1, 2020, the Company also receives certain fees for COVID-19-related forbearance and modification activities provided for under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).

Special Servicing (Distressed loans)

The base servicing fee rates for distressed loans range from $30 per month for current loans up to $85 per month for loans where the borrower has declared bankruptcy. The base servicing fee rate for REO is $75 per month.

Because PMT has a small number of employees and limited infrastructure, the Company is required to provide a range of services and activities significantly greater in scope than the services provided in connection with a customary servicing arrangement. For these services, the Company receives a supplemental servicing fee of $25 per month for each distressed loan. The Company is entitled to reimbursement for all customary, good faith reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company in the performance of its servicing obligations.

The Company is also entitled to certain activity-based fees for distressed loans that are charged based on the achievement of certain events. These fees range from $750 for a streamline modification to $1,750 for a full modification or liquidation and $500 for a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. The Company is not entitled to earn more than one liquidation fee, reperformance fee or modification fee per loan in any 18-month period.

To the extent the Company facilitates rentals of PMT's REO under its REO rental program, the Company collects an REO rental fee of $30 per month per REO, an REO property lease renewal fee of $100 per lease renewal, and a property management fee in an amount equal to the Company’s cost if property management services and/or any related software costs are outsourced to a third-party property management firm or 9% of gross rental income if the Company provides property management services directly. The Company is also entitled to retain any tenant paid application fees and late rent fees and seek reimbursement for certain third-party vendor fees.

12

Table of Contents

Except as otherwise provided in the MSR recapture agreement, when the Company effects a refinancing of a loan on behalf of PMT and not through a third-party lender and the resulting loan is readily saleable, or the Company originates a loan to facilitate the disposition of a REO, the Company is entitled to receive from PMT market-based fees and compensation consistent with pricing and terms the Company offers unaffiliated parties on a retail basis.

The Company is entitled to retain any incentive payments made to it and to which it is entitled under the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Home Affordable Modification Plan; provided, however, that with respect to any such incentive payments paid to the Company in connection with a loan modification for which PMT previously paid the Company a modification fee, the Company is required to reimburse PMT an amount equal to the incentive payments.

On June 30, 2020, the Servicing Agreement was amended and restated for a term of five years (the “2020 Servicing Agreement”). The terms of the 2020 Servicing Agreement are substantially similar to those in the prior servicing agreement except that they now include the fees described above relating to COVID-19 related forbearance and modification activities provided for under the CARES Act.

Investment Management Activities

The Company has a management agreement with PMT (“Management Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company oversees PMT’s business affairs in conformity with the investment policies that are approved and monitored by its board of trustees, for which PFSI collects a base management fee and may collect a performance incentive fee. The Management Agreement provides that:

The base management fee is calculated quarterly and is equal to the sum of (i) 1.5% per year of PMT’s average shareholders’ equity up to $2 billion, (ii) 1.375% per year of PMT’s average shareholders’ equity in excess of $2 billion and up to $5 billion, and (iii) 1.25% per year of PMT’s average shareholders’ equity in excess of $5 billion.

The performance incentive fee is calculated quarterly at a defined annualized percentage of the amount by which PMT’s “net income,” on a rolling four-quarter basis and before deducting the incentive fee, exceeds certain levels of return on “equity.”

The performance incentive fee is equal to the sum of: (a) 10% of the amount by which PMT’s “net income” for the quarter exceeds (i) an 8% return on equity plus the “high watermark,” up to (ii) a 12% return on PMT’s equity; plus (b) 15% of the amount by which PMT’s “net income” for the quarter exceeds (i) a 12% return on PMT’s equity plus the “high watermark,” up to (ii) a 16% return on PMT’s equity; plus (c) 20% of the amount by which PMT’s “net income” for the quarter exceeds a 16% return on equity plus the “high watermark.”

13

Table of Contents

For the purpose of determining the amount of the performance incentive fee:

“Net income” is defined as net income or loss attributable to PMT’s common shares of beneficial interest computed in accordance with GAAP adjusted for certain other non-cash charges determined after discussions between the Company and PMT’s independent trustees and approval by a majority of PMT’s independent trustees.

“Equity” is the weighted average of the issue price per common share of all of PMT’s public offerings, multiplied by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (including restricted share units) in the rolling four-quarter period.

The “high watermark” is the quarterly adjustment that reflects the amount by which the “net income” (stated as a percentage of return on “equity”) in that quarter exceeds or falls short of the lesser of 8% and the average Fannie Mae 30-year MBS yield (the “Target Yield”) for the four quarters then ended. If the “net income” is lower than the Target Yield, the high watermark is increased by the difference. If the “net income” is higher than the Target Yield, the high watermark is reduced by the difference. Each time a performance incentive fee is earned, the high watermark returns to zero. As a result, the threshold amounts required for the Company to earn a performance incentive fee are adjusted cumulatively based on the performance of PMT’s “net income” over (or under) the Target Yield, until the “net income” in excess of the Target Yield exceeds the then-current cumulative high watermark amount, and a performance incentive fee is earned.

The base management fee and the performance incentive fee are both receivable quarterly in arrears. The performance incentive fee may be paid in cash or a combination of cash and PMT’s common shares (subject to a limit of no more than 50% paid in common shares), at PMT’s option.

In the event of termination of the Management Agreement between PMT and the Company, the Company may be entitled to a termination fee in certain circumstances. The termination fee is equal to three times the sum of (a) the average annual base management fee, and (b) the average annual performance incentive fee earned by the Company, in each case during the 24-month period immediately preceding the date of termination.

Expense Reimbursement

Under the Management Agreement, PMT reimburses the Company for its organizational and operating expenses, including third-party expenses, incurred on PMT’s behalf, it being understood that the Company and its affiliates shall allocate a portion of their personnel’s time to provide certain legal, tax and investor relations services for the direct benefit of PMT. With respect to the allocation of the Company’s and its affiliates’ personnel compensation, the Company was reimbursed $120,000 per fiscal quarter through June 30, 2020.

PMT is also required to pay its pro rata portion of rent, telephone, utilities, office furniture, equipment, machinery and other office, internal and overhead expenses of the Company and its affiliates required for PMT’s and its subsidiaries’ operations. These expenses are allocated based on the ratio of PMT’s proportion of gross assets compared to all remaining gross assets managed by the Company as calculated at each fiscal quarter end.

On June 30, 2020, the Management Agreement was amended and restated for a term of five years (the “2020 Management Agreement”). The terms of the 2020 Management Agreement are materially consistent with those of the prior management agreement, except that, effective July 1, 2020, PMT’s reimbursement of PCM’s and its affiliate’s compensation expenses was increased from $120,000 to $165,000 per fiscal quarter, such amount to be reviewed annually and not preclude reimbursement for any other services performed by the Company or its affiliates.

The Company received reimbursements from PMT for expenses as follows:

Conditional Reimbursement of Underwriting Fees

In connection with its initial public offering of common shares of beneficial interest on August 4, 2009 (“IPO”), PMT conditionally agreed to reimburse the Company up to $2.9 million for underwriting fees paid to the IPO underwriters by the Company on PMT’s behalf. In the event a termination fee is payable to the Company under the Management Agreement, and the Company has not received the full amount of the reimbursements and payments under the reimbursement agreement, such amount will be paid in full. On February 1, 2019, the term of the reimbursement agreement was extended to February 1, 2023. The Company received $211,000 and $219,000 in reimbursement of underwriting fees from PMT during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Investing Activities

Master Repurchase Agreement

On December 19, 2016, the Company, through PLS, entered into a master repurchase agreement with one of PMT’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, PennyMac Holdings, LLC (“PMH”) (the “PMH Repurchase Agreement”), pursuant to which PMH may borrow from the Company for the purpose of financing PMH’s participation certificates representing beneficial ownership in ESS. PLS then re-pledges such participation certificates to PNMAC GMSR ISSUER TRUST (the “Issuer Trust”) under a master repurchase agreement by and among PLS, the Issuer Trust and PennyMac, as guarantor (the “PC Repurchase Agreement”). The Issuer Trust was formed for the purpose of allowing PLS to finance MSRs and ESS relating to such MSRs (the “GNMA MSR Facility”).

In connection with the GNMA MSR Facility, PLS pledges and/or sells to the Issuer Trust participation certificates representing beneficial interests in MSRs and ESS pursuant to the terms of the PC Repurchase Agreement. In return, the Issuer Trust (a) has issued to PLS, pursuant to the terms of an indenture, the Series 2016-MSRVF1 Variable Funding Note, dated December 19, 2016, known as the “PNMAC GMSR ISSUER TRUST MSR Collateralized Notes, Series 2016-MSRVF1” (the “VFN”), and (b) has issued and may, from time to time pursuant to the terms of any supplemental indenture, issue to institutional investors additional term notes, in each case secured on a pari passu basis by the participation certificates relating to the MSRs and ESS. The maximum principal balance of the VFN is $1,000,000,000.

15

Table of Contents

The principal amount paid by PLS for the participation certificates under the PMH Repurchase Agreement is based upon a percentage of the market value of the underlying ESS. Upon PMH’s repurchase of the participation certificates, PMH is required to repay PLS the principal amount relating thereto plus accrued interest (at a rate reflective of the current market and consistent with the weighted average note rate of the VFN and any outstanding term notes) to the date of such repurchase. PLS is then required to repay the Issuer Trust the corresponding amount under the PC Repurchase Agreement.

Financing Activities

Spread Acquisition and MSR Servicing Agreements

The Company has a master spread acquisition and MSR servicing agreement with PMT (the “Spread Acquisition Agreement”) which was amended and restated effective December 19, 2016, pursuant to which the Company may sell to PMT, from time to time, the right to receive participation certificates representing beneficial ownership in ESS arising from Ginnie Mae MSRs acquired by the Company, in which case the Company generally would be required to service or subservice the related mortgage loans for Ginnie Mae. The primary purpose of the amendment and restatement was to facilitate the continued financing of the ESS owned by PMT in connection with the parties’ participation in the GNMA MSR Facility.

To the extent the Company refinances any of the mortgage loans relating to the ESS it has issued, the Spread Acquisition Agreement also contains recapture provisions requiring that the Company transfer to PMT, at no cost, the ESS relating to a certain percentage of the unpaid principal balance of the newly originated mortgage loans. However, under the Spread Acquisition Agreement, in any month where the transferred ESS relating to newly originated Ginnie Mae mortgage loans is not equal to at least 90% of the product of the excess servicing fee rate and the unpaid principal balance of the refinanced mortgage loans, the Company is also required to transfer additional ESS or cash in the amount of such shortfall. Similarly, in any month where the transferred ESS relating to modified Ginnie Mae mortgage loans is not equal to at least 90% of the product of the excess servicing fee rate and the unpaid principal balance of the modified mortgage loans, the Spread Acquisition Agreement contains provisions that require the Company to transfer additional ESS or cash in the amount of such shortfall. To the extent the fair market value of the aggregate ESS to be transferred for the applicable month is less than $200,000, the Company may, at its option, settle its obligation to PMT in cash in an amount equal to such fair market value in lieu of transferring such ESS.

Exchanged Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC Unitholders

On May 8, 2013, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement with certain former owners of PennyMac that provides for the payment from time to time by the Company to PennyMac’s exchanged unitholders of an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the net tax benefits, if any, that the Company is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in tax basis of PennyMac’s assets resulting from exchanges of ownership interests in PennyMac and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the tax receivable agreement.

Although a reorganization in November 2018 eliminated the potential for unitholders to exchange any additional units subject to this tax receivable agreement, the Company continues to be subject to the agreement and will be required to make payments, to the extent any of the tax benefits specified above are deemed to be realized, under the tax receivable agreement to those certain prior owners of PennyMac who effected exchanges of ownership interests in PennyMac for the Company’s common stock prior to the closing of the reorganization.

Note 6—Fair Value

Most of the Company’s assets and certain of its liabilities are measured at or based on their fair values. The Company groups its assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the observability of the significant inputs used to determine fair value. These levels are:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Prices determined or determinable using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.

Level 3— Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where observable inputs are unavailable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own judgments about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available in the circumstances.

As a result of the difficulty in observing certain significant valuation inputs affecting “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, the Company is required to make judgments regarding these items’ fair values. Different persons in possession of the same facts may reasonably arrive at different conclusions as to the inputs to be applied in valuing these assets and liabilities and their fair values. Such differences may result in significantly different fair value measurements. Likewise, due to the general illiquidity of some of these assets and liabilities, subsequent transactions may be at values significantly different from those reported.

Fair Value Accounting Elections

The Company identified its MSRs, its mortgage servicing liabilities (“MSLs”) and all of its non-cash financial assets other than Assets purchased from PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust under agreements to resell, to be accounted for at fair value so changes in fair value will be reflected in income as they occur and more timely reflect the results of the Company’s performance. The Company has also identified its ESS financing to be accounted for at fair value as a means of hedging the related MSRs’ fair value risk.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Amortized Cost

The Company’s Assets purchased from PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust under agreements to resell, Assets sold under agreements to repurchase, Mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements, Obligations under capital lease, Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets and Unsecured senior notes are carried at amortized cost.

These assets and liabilities are classified as “Level 3” fair value items due to the Company’s reliance on unobservable inputs to estimate their fair values. The Company has concluded that the fair values of these assets and liabilities other than the 2018-GTI Notes and 2018-GT2 Notes (the “2018 Term Notes”) included in Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets and the Unsecured Notes (as hereafter defined) approximate their carrying values due to their short terms and/or variable interest rates.

The Company estimates the fair value of the 2018 Term Notes and the Unsecured Notes based on non-affiliate broker indications of fair value. The fair value and carrying value of these notes are summarized below:

Valuation Governance

Most of the Company’s financial assets, and all of its MSRs, ESS, derivative liabilities and MSLs, are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in current period income. Certain of the Company’s financial assets and derivative liabilities and all of its MSRs, ESS, and MSLs are “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities which require use of unobservable inputs that are significant to the estimation of the items’ fair values. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own judgments about the factors that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, and are based on the best information available under the circumstances.

Due to the difficulty in estimating the fair values of “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, the Company has assigned the responsibility for estimating the fair value of these items to specialized staff and subjects the valuation process to significant senior management oversight. The Company’s Financial Analysis and Valuation group (the “FAV group”) is the Company’s specialized staff responsible for estimating the fair values of “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities other than IRLCs.

29

Table of Contents

With respect to the non-IRLC “Level 3” valuations, the FAV group reports to the Company’s senior management valuation committee, which oversees the valuations. The FAV group monitors the models used for valuation of the Company’s “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, including the models’ performance versus actual results, and reports those results to the Company’s senior management valuation committee. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s senior management valuation committee includes the Company’s chief financial, investment and risk officers as well as other senior members of the Company’s finance, capital markets and risk management staffs.

The FAV group is responsible for reporting to the Company’s senior management valuation committee on the changes in the valuation of the non-IRLC “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities, including major factors affecting the valuation and any changes in model methods and inputs. To assess the reasonableness of its valuations, the FAV group presents an analysis of the effect on the valuation of changes to the significant inputs to the models.

The Company has assigned responsibility for developing the fair values of IRLCs to its Capital Markets Risk Management staff. The fair values developed by the Capital Markets Risk Management staff are reviewed by the Company’s Capital Markets Operations group.

Valuation Techniques and Inputs

Following is a description of the techniques and inputs used in estimating the fair values of “Level 2” and “Level 3” fair value assets and liabilities:

Loans Held for Sale

Most of the Company’s loans held for sale at fair value are saleable into active markets and are therefore categorized as “Level 2” fair value assets. The fair values of “Level 2” fair value loans are determined using their contracted selling price or quoted market price or market price equivalent.

Certain of the Company’s loans held for sale are not saleable into active markets and are therefore categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets. Loans held for sale categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets include:

Government guaranteed or insured loans purchased by the Company from Ginnie Mae guaranteed pools in its loan servicing portfolio. The Company’s right to purchase government guaranteed or insured loans arises as the result of the loan being at least three months delinquent on the date of repurchase by the Company and provides an alternative to the Company’s obligation to continue advancing principal and interest at the coupon rate of the related Ginnie Mae security. Such repurchased loans may be resold to investors and thereafter may be repurchased to the extent eligible for resale into a new Ginnie Mae guaranteed security. Such eligibility occurs when the repurchased loans become current either through the borrower’s reperformance or through completion of a modification of the loan’s terms or after six months of timely payments following the completion of certain types of payment deferral programs.

Loans that are not saleable into active markets due to identification of a defect by the Company or to the repurchase by the Company of a loan with an identified defect.

Home equity lines of credit held for sale to PMT. At present, an active market with observable inputs that are significant to the estimation of fair value of home equity lines of credit does not exist.

The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of its “Level 3” fair value loans held for sale. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s “Level 3” fair value loans held for sale are discount rates, home price projections, voluntary prepayment/resale and total prepayment speeds. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the loans’ fair value measurement. Increases in home price projections are generally accompanied by an increase in voluntary prepayment speeds.

(1) Weighted average inputs are based on the fair value of the “Level 3” loans.

(2) Voluntary prepayment/resale speed is measured using Life Voluntary Conditional Prepayment Rate (“CPR”).

(3) Total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR, which includes both voluntary and involuntary prepayments/resale and defaults.

Changes in fair value of loans held for sale attributable to changes in the loan’s instrument-specific credit risk are measured with reference to the change in the respective loan’s delinquency status and performance history at period end from the later of the beginning of the period or acquisition date. Changes in fair value of loans held for sale are included in Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

The Company categorizes IRLCs as “Level 3” fair value assets or liabilities. The Company estimates the fair value of IRLCs based on quoted Agency MBS prices, its estimate of the fair value of the MSRs it expects to receive in the sale of the loans and the probability that the loan will be funded or purchased (the “pull-through rate”).

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s IRLCs are the pull-through rate and the MSR component of the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the mortgage loans it has committed to purchase. Significant changes in the pull-through rate or the MSR component of the IRLCs, in isolation, could result in significant changes in the IRLCs’ fair value measurement. The financial effects of changes in these inputs are generally inversely correlated as increasing interest rates have a positive effect on the fair value of the MSR component of IRLC fair value, but increase the pull-through rate for the loan principal and interest payment cash flow component, which has decreased in fair value. Changes in fair value of IRLCs are included in Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value in the consolidated statements of income.

Hedging Derivatives

Fair values of derivative financial instruments actively traded on exchanges are categorized by the Company as “Level 1” fair value assets and liabilities; fair values of derivative financial instruments based on observable interest rates, volatilities and prices in the MBS or other markets are categorized by the Company as “Level 2” fair value assets and liabilities.

Changes in the fair value of hedging derivatives are included in Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value, or Net loan servicing fees – Hedging results, as applicable, in the consolidated statements of income.

Repurchase Agreement Derivatives

Through August 21, 2019, the Company had a master repurchase agreement that included incentives for financing loans approved for satisfying designated consumer relief characteristics. These incentives are classified for financial reporting purposes as embedded derivatives and are separated for reporting purposes from the master repurchase agreement. Repurchase agreement derivatives are categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets. The significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of repurchase agreement derivative assets are the discount rate and the Company’s expected approval rate of the loans financed under the master repurchase agreement. The resulting ratio included in the Company’s fair value estimate was 99.0% at December 31, 2019.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

MSRs are categorized as “Level 3” fair value assets. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSRs. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of MSRs include the applicable pricing spread (discount rate), prepayment rates of the underlying loans, and annual per-loan cost to service the underlying loans, all of which are unobservable. Significant changes to any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the MSR fair value measurement. Changes in these key inputs are not directly related. Changes in the fair value of MSRs are included in Net loan servicing feesChange in fair value of mortgage servicing rights and mortgage servicing liabilities in the consolidated statements of income.

(3) Annual total prepayment speed is measured using Life Total CPR, which includes both voluntary and involuntary prepayments. Equivalent average life is included for informational purposes.

The preceding sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed as of a particular date; only contemplate the movements in the indicated inputs; do not incorporate changes to other inputs; are subject to the accuracy of the models and inputs used; and do not incorporate other factors that would affect the Company’s overall financial performance in such events, including operational adjustments made by management to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the preceding estimates should not be viewed as earnings forecasts.

Excess Servicing Spread Financing at Fair Value

ESS is categorized as a “Level 3” fair value liability. Because ESS is a claim to a portion of the cash flows from MSRs, the fair value measurement of the ESS is similar to that of MSRs. The Company uses the same discounted cash flow approach to measuring the ESS as it uses to measure MSRs except that certain inputs relating to the cost to service the mortgage loans underlying the MSRs and certain ancillary income are not included as these cash flows do not accrue to the holder of the ESS.

The key inputs used in the estimation of ESS fair value include pricing spread (discount rate) and prepayment speed. Significant changes to either of those inputs in isolation could result in a significant change in the fair value of ESS. Changes in these key inputs are not directly related.

ESS is generally subject to fair value increases when mortgage interest rates increase. Increasing mortgage interest rates normally discourage mortgage refinancing activity. Decreased refinancing activity increases the life of the mortgage loans underlying the ESS, thereby increasing the fair value of this financing. Changes in the fair value of ESS are included in Net loan servicing fees—Change in fair value of excess servicing spread payable to PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust.

Mortgage Servicing Liabilities

MSLs are categorized as “Level 3” fair value liabilities. The Company uses a discounted cash flow approach to estimate the fair value of MSLs. The key inputs used in the estimation of the fair value of MSLs include the applicable pricing spread (discount rate), prepayment rates, and the annual per-loan cost to service the underlying loans. Changes in the fair value of MSLs are included in Net servicing feesChange in fair value of mortgage servicing rights and mortgage servicing liabilities in the consolidated statements of income.

Note 8—Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company holds and issues derivative financial instruments in connection with its operating activities. Derivative financial instruments are created as a result of certain of the Company’s operations and when the Company enters into derivative transactions as part of its interest rate risk management activities. Derivative financial instruments created as a result of the Company’s operations include:

IRLCs that are created when the Company commits to purchase or originate a loan for sale.

Derivatives that were embedded in a master repurchase agreement that provided for the Company to receive incentives for financing mortgage loans that satisfied certain consumer relief characteristics under the master repurchase agreement.

The Company also engages in interest rate risk management activities in an effort to moderate the effect of changes in market interest rates on the fair value of certain of the its assets. To manage this fair value risk resulting from interest rate risk, the Company uses derivative financial instruments acquired with the intention of reducing the risk that changes in market interest rates will result in unfavorable changes in the fair value of the Company’s IRLCs, inventory of loans held for sale and the portion of its MSRs not financed with ESS.

Note 12—Borrowings

The borrowing facilities described throughout this Note 12 contain various covenants, including financial covenants governing the Company’s net worth, debt-to-equity ratio, profitability and liquidity. Management believes that the Company was in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2020.

Assets Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The Company has multiple borrowing facilities in the form of asset sales under agreements to repurchase. These borrowing facilities are secured by loans held for sale at fair value or participation certificates backed by MSRs. Eligible loans and participation certificates backed by MSRs are sold at advance rates based on the fair value (as determined by the lender) of the assets sold. Interest is charged at a rate based on LIBOR. Loans and MSRs financed under these agreements may be re-pledged by the lenders.

On April 1, 2020, the Company issued a series of variable funding notes, the Series 2020-SPIADVF1 Notes (“GMSR Servicing Advance Notes”), to be sold under agreement to repurchase pursuant to a Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2020, with Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC (“CSFB”), acting as administrative agent on behalf of Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“CSCIB”), as buyer (the “GMSR Servicing Advances Repurchase Agreement”).

The GMSR Servicing Advance Notes leverage the GNMA MSR Facility to support a separately defined servicing advance facility within the existing structure and provide the Company enhanced ability to finance its servicing advance obligations to Ginnie Mae and its security holders as necessary. Specifically, the GMSR Servicing Advances Repurchase Agreement provides the Company with financing secured by its servicing advances to pay, in accordance with the Ginnie Mae requirements, in the event borrowers are delinquent: (i) regularly scheduled monthly principal and interest to mortgage-backed securities holders; (ii) taxes, homeowner’s insurance, and other escrowed items; and (iii) other expenses related to servicing delinquent loans as specified by (A) state and federal laws and (B) government agencies, including the FHA, the VA, and the USDA.

The borrowing capacity under the GMSR Servicing Advances Repurchase Agreement, shared with VFN financing capacity, is $600 million, all of which is committed and may be used to finance the servicing advances related to delinquent FHA, VA, and USDA loans, including delinquencies caused by forbearance in accordance with the CARES Act.

(1) The calculation of the amount at risk includes the VFN and the 2018 Term Notes because beneficial interests in the Ginnie Mae MSRs and servicing advances are pledged to the Issuer Trust and together serve as the collateral backing the VFN, 2018 Term Notes described in Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets below. The VFN financing is included in Assets sold under agreements to repurchase and the 2018 Term Notes are included in Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The Company is subject to margin calls during the period the repurchase agreements are outstanding and therefore may be required to repay a portion of the borrowings before the respective agreements mature if the fair value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets securing those agreements decreases.

Mortgage Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreements

Certain of the borrowing facilities secured by loans held for sale are in the form of mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements. Participation certificates, each of which represents an undivided beneficial ownership interest in mortgage loans that have been pooled with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, are sold to a lender pending the securitization of the mortgage loans and sale of the resulting securities. A commitment to sell the securities resulting from the pending securitization between the Company and a non-affiliate is also assigned to the lender at the time a participation certificate is sold.

The purchase price paid by the lender for each participation certificate is based on the trade price of the security, plus an amount of interest expected to accrue on the security to its anticipated delivery date, minus a present value adjustment, any related hedging costs and a holdback amount that is based on a percentage of the purchase price. The holdback amount is not required to be paid to the Company until the settlement of the security and its delivery to the lender.

Unsecured Senior Notes

On September 29, 2020, the Company issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% senior notes (the “Unsecured Notes”). Interest on the Unsecured Notes accrues beginning on September 29, 2020 at a rate of 5.375% per year. Interest on the Unsecured Notes is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2021. The Unsecured Notes mature on October 15, 2025.

Before October 15, 2022, the Company may, at its option and on any one or more occasions redeem:

some or all of the Unsecured Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Unsecured Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium; and
up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Unsecured Notes with an amount equal to or less than the net proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 105.375% plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

On or after October 15, 2022, the Company may, at its option and on any one or more occasions, redeem some or all of the Unsecured Notes at the applicable redemption prices set forth in the indenture under which the Unsecured Notes were issued, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If a “change of control” (as defined in the indenture under which the Unsecured Notes were issued) occurs, the holders of the Unsecured Notes may require the Company to purchase for cash all or a portion of their Unsecured Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Unsecured Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

The Unsecured Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the Company, equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company and effectively subordinated to any future secured indebtedness of the Company to the extent of the value of collateral securing such indebtedness.

50

Table of Contents

The Unsecured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by each of PFSI’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries). The guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the guarantors and will rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the guarantors, equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of the guarantors and effectively subordinated to any future secured indebtedness of the guarantors to the extent of the value of collateral securing such indebtedness. The Unsecured Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Unsecured Notes.

Corporate Revolving Line of Credit

The Company, through its subsidiary PennyMac, entered into an amended and restated credit agreement on November 18, 2016, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) under which PennyMac established a revolving line of credit in an amount not to exceed $150 million. Certain cash accounts with balances totaling $52.6 million at December 31, 2019, were pledged to secure this revolving line of credit. PennyMac did not borrow under the revolving line of credit during the periods presented and terminated the Credit Agreement on September 29, 2020 concurrent with the issuance the Unsecured Notes. Debt issuance costs and non-utilization fees totaled $561,000 and $481,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be a party to legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. The amount, if any, of ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be determined, but despite the inherent uncertainties of litigation, management believes that the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings and exposure will not have, individually or taken together, a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

On December 20, 2018, a purported shareholder of the Company filed a complaint in a putative class and derivative action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), captioned Robert Garfield v. BlackRock Mortgage Ventures, LLC et al., Case No. 2018-0917-KSJM (the “Garfield Action”). The Garfield Action alleges, among other things, that certain current directors and officers of the Company breached their fiduciary duties to the Company and its shareholders by, among other things, agreeing to and entering into a corporate reorganization (the “Reorganization”), without ensuring that the Reorganization was entirely fair to the Company or public shareholders. In connection with the Reorganization, the Company was formed as a Delaware corporation on July 2, 2018, and became the top-level parent holding company for the consolidated PennyMac business on November 1, 2018, The Reorganization was approved by 99.8% of voting shareholders on October 24, 2018. On December 19, 2019, the Delaware Court denied a motion to dismiss filed by the Company and certain of its directors and officers. While the Company and its co-defendants believe the Garfield Action is without merit and expressly disclaim any wrongdoing, they have collectively agreed to settle the Garfield Action for an amount equal to $6.85 million in order to avoid the ongoing costs of litigation and further distractions to their respective businesses. A settlement agreement was filed with the Delaware Court on October 9, 2020, and is currently pending approval. The Company’s share of the settlement amount will be paid entirely by one of the Company’s insurers.

On November 5, 2019, Black Knight Servicing Technologies, LLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Black Knight, Inc. (“BKI”), filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial in the Circuit Court for the Fourth Judicial Circuit in and for Duval County, Florida (the “Florida State Court”), captioned Black Knight Servicing Technologies, LLC v. PennyMac Loan Services, LLC, Case No. 2019-CA-007908 (the “BKI Complaint”). Allegations contained within the BKI Complaint include breach of contract and misappropriation of MSP® System trade secrets in order to develop an imitation mortgage-processing system intended to replace the MSP® System. The BKI Complaint seeks damages for breach of contract and misappropriation of trade secrets, injunctive relief under the Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act and declaratory judgment of ownership of all intellectual property and software developed by or on behalf of PLS as a result of its wrongful use of and access to the MSP® System and related trade secret and confidential information. On March 30, 2020, the Florida State Court granted a motion to compel arbitration filed by the Company. While no assurance can be provided to the ultimate outcome of this claim or the account of any losses to the Company, the Company believes the BKI Complaint is without merit and plans to vigorously defend the matter, which remains pending. Any potential range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated at this time primarily because the matter involves complex factual and legal issues; there is substantial uncertainty regarding any alleged damages, and the matter is at a preliminary stage of litigation.

Regulatory Matters

The Company and/or its subsidiaries are subject to various state and federal regulations related to its loan production and servicing operations by the various states it operates in as well as federal agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, HUD, and the FHA and is subject to the requirements of the Agencies to which it sells loans and for which it performs loan servicing activities. As a result, the Company may become involved in information-gathering requests, reviews, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal) by such various federal, state and local regulatory bodies.

Commitments to Purchase and Fund Mortgage Loans

The Company’s commitments to purchase and fund loans totaled $18.9 billion as of September 30, 2020.

Note 20—Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per share of common stock is determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock is determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, assuming all dilutive shares of common stock were issued.

Potentially dilutive shares of common stock include non-vested stock-based compensation awards. The Company applies the treasury stock method to determine the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding based on the outstanding stock-based compensation awards.

The following table summarizes the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations:

Note 22—Regulatory Capital and Liquidity Requirements

The Company, through PLS and PennyMac, is required to maintain specified levels of capital and liquidity to remain a seller/servicer in good standing with the Agencies. Such capital and liquid asset requirements generally are tied to the size of the Company’s loan servicing portfolio, loan origination volume and delinquency rates.

The Company is subject to financial eligibility requirements established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) for sellers/servicers eligible to sell or service mortgage loans with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The eligibility requirements include:

tangible net worth of $2.5 million plus 25 basis points of the UPB of the Company’s total 1-4 unit servicing portfolio, excluding mortgage loans subserviced for others;
before June 30, 2020, a liquidity requirement equal to 3.5 basis points of the aggregate UPB serviced for the Agencies plus 200 basis points of total nonperforming Agency servicing UPB (including nonperforming Agency loans that are in payment forbearance) in excess of 600 basis points; and
effective June 30, 2020, a liquidity requirement equal to 3.5 basis points of the aggregate UPB serviced for the Agencies plus 200 basis points of total nonperforming Agency servicing UPB less 70% of such nonperforming Agency servicing UPB in excess of 600 basis points where the underlying loans are in COVID-19 forbearance but were current at the time they entered forbearance.

56

Table of Contents

On January 31, 2020, FHFA proposed changes to the eligibility requirements, which would increase the tangible net worth requirement to $2.5 million plus 35 basis points of the UPB of loans serviced for Ginnie Mae and 25 basis points of the UPB of all other 1-4 unit loans serviced, and increase the liquidity requirement to 4 basis points of the aggregate UPB serviced for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and 10 basis points of the UPB serviced for Ginnie Mae plus 300 basis points of total nonperforming Agency servicing UPB (including nonperforming Agency loans that are in payment forbearance) in excess of 400 basis points. On June 15, 2020, FHFA announced that it will be re-proposing changes to these requirements.

The Company is also subject to financial eligibility requirements for Ginnie Mae single-family issuers. The eligibility requirements include net worth of $2.5 million plus 35 basis points of PLS' outstanding Ginnie Mae single-family obligations and a liquidity requirement equal to the greater of $1.0 million or 10 basis points of PLS' outstanding Ginnie Mae single-family securities.

The Agencies’ capital and liquidity requirements, the calculations of which are specified by each Agency, are summarized below:

Noncompliance with an Agency’s requirements can result in such Agency taking various remedial actions up to and including terminating PennyMac’s ability to sell loans to and service loans on behalf of the respective Agency.

Note 23—Segments

The Company operates in three segments: production, servicing and investment management.

Two of the segments are in the mortgage banking business: production and servicing. The production segment performs loan origination, acquisition and sale activities.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read with the consolidated financial statements including the related notes of PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI”) included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied in such statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan” and other similar expressions. You should consider our forward-looking statements in light of the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors,” as well as our consolidated financial statements, related notes, and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement any forward-looking statements.

Overview

The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the words “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer to PFSI.

Our Company

We are a specialty financial services firm with a comprehensive mortgage platform and integrated business primarily focused on the production and servicing of U.S. residential mortgage loans (activities which we refer to as mortgage banking) and the management of investments related to the U.S. mortgage market. We believe that our operating capabilities, specialized expertise, access to long-term investment capital, and our management’s experience across all aspects of the mortgage business will allow us to profitably grow these activities and capitalize on other related opportunities as they arise in the future.

We operate and control all of the business and affairs and consolidate the financial results of Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC (“PennyMac”). PennyMac was founded in 2008 by members of our executive leadership team and two strategic partners, BlackRock Mortgage Ventures, LLC and HC Partners, LLC, formerly known as Highfields Capital Investments, LLC, together with its affiliates.

We were formed as a Delaware corporation on July 2, 2018. We became the top-level parent holding company for the consolidated PennyMac business pursuant to a corporate reorganization (the “Reorganization”) that was consummated on November 1, 2018. Before the Reorganization, PNMAC Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as PennyMac Financial Services, Inc.) (“PNMAC Holdings”) was our top-level parent holding company and our public company registrant.

One result of the consummation of the Reorganization was that our equity structure was changed to create a single class of publicly-held common stock as opposed to the two classes that were in place before the Reorganization. For tax purposes, the Reorganization was treated as an integrated transaction that qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and/or a transfer described in Section 351(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. PNMAC Holdings’ financial statements remain our historical financial statements.

61

Table of Contents

We conduct our business in three segments: production, servicing (together, production and servicing comprise our mortgage banking activities) and investment management.

The production segment performs loan origination, acquisition and sale activities.
The servicing segment performs loan servicing for both newly originated loans we are holding for sale and loans we service for others, including for PMT.
The investment management segment represents our investment management activities, which include the activities associated with investment asset acquisitions and dispositions such as sourcing, due diligence, negotiation and settlement.

Our principal mortgage banking subsidiary, PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”), is a non-bank producer and servicer of mortgage and home equity loans in the United States. PLS is a seller/servicer for the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), each of which is a government-sponsored entity (“GSE”). PLS is also an approved issuer of securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), a lender of the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), and a lender/servicer of the Veterans Administration (“VA”) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”). We refer to each of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae, FHA, VA and USDA as an “Agency” and collectively as the “Agencies.” PLS is able to service loans in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and originate loans in 49 states and the District of Columbia, either because PLS is properly licensed in a particular jurisdiction or exempt or otherwise not required to be licensed in that jurisdiction.

Our investment management subsidiary is PNMAC Capital Management, LLC (“PCM”), a Delaware limited liability company registered with the SEC as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. PCM manages PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“PMT”), a mortgage real estate investment trust listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol PMT.

(1) To provide investors with information in addition to our results as determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we disclose Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure which is a measure that is frequently used in our industry to measure performance and we believe that this measure provides supplemental information that is useful to investors. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, or any other performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income plus provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding decrease (increase) in fair value of MSRs and MSLs due to changes in valuation inputs used in valuation model, increase (decrease) in fair value of ESS payable to PMT, hedging losses (gains) associated with MSRs, stock-based compensation and interest expense on corporate debt or corporate revolving credit facilities and capital leases to the extent such items existed in the periods presented.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because each measure assists both investors and management in analyzing and benchmarking the

63

Table of Contents

performance and value of our business. However, other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently, and as a result, our measures of Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to those of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

(a) they do not reflect every cash expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

(b) they do not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payment on our debt;

(c) they are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA measures are not intended as alternatives to net income as an indicator of our operating performance and should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to our net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, for each of the periods indicated:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the United States was significantly impacted by the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic (the “Pandemic” or “COVID-19”) and the effects of market and government responses to the Pandemic. These developments have resulted in an economic recession in the United States and increased unemployment that have created financial hardships for many existing borrowers.

As part of its response to the Pandemic, the federal government included requirements in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act that we provide borrowers with loans we service for the Agencies with substantial payment forbearance. As a result of this requirement, we have seen a large increase in delinquencies in our servicing portfolio which has increased our cost to service those loans and may require us to finance substantial amounts of advances of principal and interest payments to the investors holding these loans, as well as property taxes, insurance and other costs to protect investors’ interest in the properties collateralizing the loans. As of September 30, 2020, 9.2% of loans in our predominately government-insured or guaranteed MSR portfolio were in forbearance plans and delinquent resulting in an increase in the level of servicing advances we have been required to make in order to fund borrower delinquencies.

This development may have a negative effect on the earnings of our servicing segment before taking into account the effect of future developments on the valuation of our MSRs by, among other things, reducing servicing fee income, reducing the amount of placement fees we earn on custodial deposits related to these loans, increasing our cost to service due to higher delinquency and default rates, as well as increased financing costs due to the need to advance funds on behalf of delinquent borrowers. We expect these losses to be offset by growth in our loan servicing portfolio and gains on early buyout loans as those borrowers reperform.

Table of Contents

Before the onset of the Pandemic, the mortgage origination market was experiencing healthy demand owing to historically low interest rates in the United States. The government’s response to the onset of the Pandemic, including fiscal stimulus and infusions of additional liquidity by the Federal Reserve into financial markets acted to further lower market mortgage interest rates. These developments have acted to sustain heightened demand for new mortgage loans despite the slowdown in overall economic activity. The mortgage origination market for 2019 was estimated at $2.3 trillion; current forecasts estimate the origination market to approximate $3.6 trillion for 2020 and range from $2.5 trillion to $2.7 trillion for 2021. This increase in demand for mortgage loans, combined with constraints on mortgage industry origination capacity that existed before the Pandemic, has allowed us to realize higher gain-on sale margins in our production segment. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are expected to add a 50 basis point adverse market refinance fee applicable to most mortgage refinances on December 1, 2020 that could have a negative impact on future refinances.

The current environment caused by the Pandemic in the United States is historically unprecedented and the source of much uncertainty surrounding future economic and market prospects and the ongoing effects on our future prospects are difficult to anticipate, for further discussion of the potential impacts of the Pandemic please also see “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A.

For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, income before provision for income taxes increased $562.1 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2019. The increases were primarily due to an increase in production income (Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value, Loan origination fees and Fulfillment fees from PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust) which reflects higher production volume and improved margins and an increase in Net loan servicing fees primarily due to growth in our loan servicing portfolio and increase in income from buying loans out of Ginnie Mae securities for potential resecuritization, partially offset by an increase in total expenses. The increase in total expenses were mainly due to increases in compensation, servicing and loan origination expenses reflecting the continuing growth of our mortgage banking activities and the impact of the Pandemic on our servicing portfolio and operations.

Net Gains on Loans Held for Sale at Fair Value

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value totaling $855.3 million and $1.9 billion, respectively, an increase of $619.5 million and $1.4 billion, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increases were primarily due to the combined effects of decreasing interest rates on demand for loans and of temporary disruption of industry capacity at the onset of the Pandemic, both of which increased profit margins during 2020 as compared to 2019.

Our gain on sale of loans held for sale includes both cash and non-cash elements. We recognize a significant portion of our gain on sale of loans when we make a commitment to purchase or fund a mortgage loan. We recognize this gain in the form of an interest rate lock commitment. We adjust our initial gain amount as the loan purchase or origination process progresses until the loan is either funded or cancelled. We also receive non-cash proceeds on sale that include our estimate of the fair value of MSRs and we incur liabilities for mortgage servicing liabilities (which represent the fair value of the costs we expect to incur in excess of the fees we receive for early buyout of delinquent loans (“EBO loans”) we have resold) and for the fair value of our estimate of the losses we expect to incur relating to the representation and warranties we provide in our loan sale transactions.

Non-cash elements of gain on sale of loans held for sale

The MSRs, MSLs, and liability for representations and warranties we recognize represent our estimate of the fair value of future benefits and costs we will realize for years in the future. These estimates represented approximately 39% and 54% of our gain on sale of loans held for sale at fair value for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to 147% and 140% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. These estimates change as circumstances change and changes in these estimates are recognized in income in subsequent periods. How we measure and update our measurements of IRLCs, MSRs and MSLs is detailed in Note 6 – Fair value – Valuation Techniques and Inputs to the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Our agreements with the purchasers and insurers include representations and warranties related to the loans we sell. The representations and warranties require adherence to purchaser and insurer origination and underwriting guidelines, including but not limited to the validity of the lien securing the loan, property eligibility, borrower credit, income and asset requirements, and compliance with applicable federal, state and local law.

In the event of a breach of our representations and warranties, we may be required to either repurchase the loans with the identified defects or indemnify the purchaser or insurer. In such cases, we bear any subsequent credit loss on the loans. Our credit loss may be reduced by any recourse we have to correspondent originators that sold such loans to us and breached similar or other representations and warranties. In such event, we have the right to seek a recovery of related repurchase losses from that correspondent seller.

Our representations and warranties are generally not subject to stated limits of exposure. However, we believe that the current UPB of loans sold by us and subject to representation and warranty liability to date represents the maximum exposure to repurchases related to representations and warranties.

The level of the liability for losses under representations and warranties is difficult to estimate and requires considerable judgment. The level of loan repurchase losses is dependent on economic factors, purchaser or insurer loss mitigation strategies, and other external conditions that may change over the lives of the underlying loans. Our estimate of the liability for representations and warranties is developed by our credit administration staff and approved by our senior management credit committee which includes our senior executives and senior management in our loan production, loan servicing and credit risk management areas. 

The method used to estimate our losses on representations and warranties is a function of our estimate of future defaults, loan repurchase rates, the severity of loss in the event of default, if applicable, and the probability of reimbursement by the correspondent loan seller. We establish a liability at the time loans are sold and review our liability estimate on a periodic basis.

We recorded provisions for losses under representations and warranties relating to current loan sales as a component of Net gains on loans held for sale at fair value totaling $5.2 million and $13.1 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to $2.5 million and $5.2 million for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The increase in the provision relating to current loan sales is primarily attributable to increased sales of loans supplemented by increased loss assumptions relating to our securitizations of early buyout loans. We also recorded reductions in the liability of $2.5 million and $5.4 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to $1.2 million and $6.3 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The reductions in the liability resulted from previously sold loans meeting performance criteria established by the Agencies which significantly limits the likelihood of certain repurchase or indemnification claims.

During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we repurchased loans totaling $9.1 million and $43.7 million in UPB, respectively. We recorded losses of $151,000 and $643,000 net of recoveries during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. If the outstanding balance of loans we purchase and sell subject to representations and warranties increases, the loans sold continue to season, economic conditions change, correspondent lenders become unwilling or unable to repurchase defective loans, or investor and insurer loss mitigation strategies are adjusted, the level of repurchase and loss activity may increase.

Loan origination fees

Loan origination fees increased $26.1 million and $81.8 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increases were primarily due to an increase in volume of loans we produced.

Fulfillment fees from PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust

Fulfillment fees from PMT represent fees we collect for services we perform on behalf of PMT in connection with the acquisition, packaging and sale of loans. The fulfillment fees were calculated as a percentage of the UPB of the loans we fulfilled for PMT through June 30, 2020. Effective July 1, 2020, fulfillment fees are calculated based on the number of loans we fulfill for PMT.

Fulfillment fees increased $9.7 million and $47.3 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increases were primarily due to an increase in PMT’s loan production volume, partially offset by the effect of the amendment to the fulfillment fee structure during the quarter and nine month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to the same periods in 2019.

Net loan servicing fees increased $66.6 million and $207.0 million, respectively, during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2019. The increases were due to $41.1 million and $114.1 million, respectively, less in fair value losses relating to MSRs, mortgage servicing liabilities (“MSLs”), and ESS, net of hedging results and an increase of $25.4 million and $92.9 million, respectively, in loan servicing fees resulting from an increase in our average servicing portfolio during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the same periods in 2019.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the prepayment expectations resulting from the decreasing interest rate environment, along with expectations of higher costs to service loans in the coming months and increased returns demanded by market participants in response to the uncertainties created by the Pandemic, resulted in a 36% reduction in fair value (as measured by the December 31, 2019 fair value) of our investment in MSRs. This reduction in fair value was offset by our hedging results and change in fair value of ESS.

There can be no assurance that our hedging activities will continue to perform in a like manner in the future. As discussed above, we expect the ongoing effects of the Pandemic and the requirements of the CARES Act to reduce our servicing income and to increase our servicing expenses due to the increased number of delinquent loans, and significant levels of forbearance that we have and continue to grant, as well as the resolution of loans that we expect to ultimately default as the result of the Pandemic.

Net Interest (Expense) Income

Net interest income decreased $37.3 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to:

a decrease in placement fees we receive relating to custodial funds that we manage due to decreased earning rates which reflect the lower interest rate environment; and
an increase in interest shortfall on repayments of loans serviced for Agency securitizations, reflecting increased loan payoffs as a result of increased borrower refinancing activity due to the lower interest rates in 2020 as compared to 2019; partially offset by
an increase in interest income on loans held for sale due to larger average loan inventory balances during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 as compared to 2019.

70

Table of Contents

Net interest income decreased $70.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to:

a decrease in placement fees we receive relating to custodial funds that we manage due to low earning rates;
an increase in interest shortfall on repayments of loans serviced for Agency securitizations, reflecting increased loan payoffs as a result of increased borrower refinancing activity due to the lower interest rates in 2020 as compared to 2019;
an increase in interest expense on repurchase agreements, reflecting the expiration of a master repurchase agreement in August 2019 that provided us with incentives to finance mortgage loans approved for satisfying certain consumer relief characteristics as provided in the agreement. We recorded $14.7 million of such incentives as reductions in Interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2019; partially offset by
an increase in interest income on loans held for sale due to larger average loan inventory balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to 2019.

Management fees decreased $1.6 million and $327,000, respectively, during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease was due to a decrease of $2.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, in incentive fees during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 reflecting the losses PMT incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, partially offset by an increase of $594,000 and $5.0 million, respectively, in base management fees reflecting the increases in PMT’s average shareholders’ equity, upon which its base management fees are based. The increase in PMT’s average shareholders’ equity during 2020 as compared to 2019 is the result of PMT’s equity offerings throughout 2019. We do not expect to recognize performance incentive fees for the foreseeable future because of the losses PMT incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Compensation expense increased $61.3 million and $188.3 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increases were primarily due to growth in head count made to accommodate the growth in our loan production and servicing activities as well as to increases in incentive compensation resulting from performance-based incentives and higher than expected attainment of profitability targets.

Servicing

Servicing expenses increased $23.2 million and $62.6 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. This increase in servicing expense was primarily the result of the increase in delinquencies we experienced due to the effects on borrower delinquencies of the Pandemic.

Loan origination

Loan origination expense increased $18.9 million and $78.3 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2019. The increases were primarily resulting from increased consumer and broker direct lending activities, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives related to lender paid fees during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same periods during 2019.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rates were 26.5% and 26.4% during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, compared to 26.9% and 26.3% during the same periods in 2019.

Total assets increased $21.0 billion from $10.2 billion at December 31, 2019 to $31.2 billion at September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $16.1 billion in loans eligible for repurchase, $4.2 billion in loans held for sale at fair value, $368.4 million in cash and short-term investments, $418.6 million in derivative assets and $317.7 million in other assets, partially offset by a decrease of $593.0 million in MSRs. The increase in loans eligible for repurchase reflects an increase in delinquent loans as a result of the Pandemic and the CARES Act forbearance requirements. The decrease in MSRs reflects the $1.0 billion in fair value losses discussed above, partially offset by additions resulting from our loan production activities. We increased our holding of cash and short-term investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as a means of enhancing our liquidity during the Pandemic.

Total liabilities increased $20.1 billion from $8.1 billion at December 31, 2019 to $28.2 billion at September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in liability for loans eligible for repurchase.

Our cash flows resulted in a net increase in cash and restricted cash of $340.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as discussed below.

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities totaled $3.9 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared with net cash used in operating activities totaled $1.7 billion during the same period in 2019. Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily influenced by changes in the levels of our inventory of mortgage loans as shown below:

The decrease in cash flows from other operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 primarily reflects an increase in deposits securing certain of our borrowings and increases in servicing advances caused by COVID-19 induced borrower delinquencies.

Investing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 totaled $924.6 million primarily due to $1.0 billion in net settlement of derivative financial instruments used to hedge our investment in MSRs. Net cash provided by investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 totaled $169.4 million, primarily due to $542.1 million in net settlement of derivative financial instruments used to hedge our investment in MSRs, partially offset by the purchase of MSRs totaling $227.4 million and increase in margin deposit of $168.1 million.

Financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $3.3 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to net repurchase of assets sold under agreement to repurchase, reflecting an increase in our financing of mortgage loans held for sale and issuance of unsecured notes to finance the growth in our loans held for sale. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.6 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily to finance the growth in our inventory of mortgage loans held for sale and our investments in MSRs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity reflects our ability to meet our current obligations (including our operating expenses and, when applicable, the retirement of, and margin calls relating to, our debt, and margin calls relating to hedges on our commitments to purchase or originate mortgage loans and on our MSR investments), fund new originations and purchases, and make investments as we identify them. We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be through cash flows from business activities, proceeds from bank borrowings, proceeds from and issuance of ESS and/or equity or debt offerings. We believe that our liquidity is sufficient to meet our current liquidity needs.

The effect of the Pandemic on our operations, liquidity and capital resources remain uncertain and difficult to predict, for further discussion of the potential impacts of the Pandemic please also see “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A.

The CARES Act allows borrowers with federally-backed loans to request temporary payment forbearance in response to the increased borrower hardships resulting from the Pandemic and may require the servicer to advance principal and interest, property taxes, insurance premiums and other expenses to the investor for up to four months on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans and longer on Ginnie Mae and other government agency backed loans. In April 2020, the Company entered into a new Ginnie Mae servicing advance financing allowing the Company to borrow $600 million against Ginnie Mae MSRs and servicing advances. The Ginnie Mae servicing advances eligible for financing include advances made to support regularly scheduled monthly principal and interest to mortgage-backed securities holders, taxes, homeowners insurance and escrowed items and other expenses related to servicing delinquent loans. We are also in ongoing discussions with our lending partners to procure additional advance financing.

The Pandemic has significantly increased the number of loans that are delinquent in our Ginnie Mae MSR portfolio. The Ginnie Mae program provides us with the option to purchase loans that are at least three months delinquent out of the underlying Ginnie Mae securities as an alternative to continuing to advance principal and interest payments to the holders of the Ginnie Mae securities. We refer to such loans as “early buyout” or EBO loans.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we repurchased $2.7 billion in UPB of EBO loans from our Ginnie Mae MSR portfolio. Our objective is to work with the borrowers to cure the loan delinquency through either borrower reperformance or modification of the loans’ terms. When curing the delinquency is not feasible, we work to settle the loan and collect our claims from the applicable insurer or guarantor. When we are able to cure the delinquency, we are able to re-deliver the cured loan into another Ginnie Mae guaranteed security. Depending on the method used to cure a borrower delinquency, the Ginnie Mae program may require at least a six month period of timely borrower payments before we are able to re-deliver the loan. Therefore, regardless of whether we cure or settle the repurchased loan, our investment in the EBO loans may require a substantial holding period.

Our current borrowing strategy is to finance our assets where we believe such borrowing is prudent, appropriate and available. Our borrowing activities are in the form of sales of assets under agreements to repurchase, sales of mortgage loan participation purchase and sale certificates, ESS financing, notes payable, a capital lease and unsecured senior notes. A significant amount of our borrowings have short-term maturities and provide for terms of approximately one year. Because a significant portion of our current debt facilities consists of short-term borrowings, we expect to renew these facilities in advance of maturity in order to ensure our ongoing liquidity and access to capital or otherwise allow ourselves sufficient time to replace any necessary financing. On September 29, 2020, we issued $500 million of long term Unsecured Notes that mature on October 15, 2025. We used the proceeds from the Unsecured Notes to repay some of our existing short-term borrowings.

Our repurchase agreements represent the sales of assets together with agreements for us to buy back the respective assets at a later date. The table below presents the average, maximum daily and ending balances:

The differences between the average and maximum daily balances on our repurchase agreements reflect the fluctuations throughout the month of our inventory as we fund and pool mortgage loans for sale in guaranteed mortgage securitizations.

Our secured financing agreements at PLS require us to comply with various financial covenants. The most significant financial covenants currently include the following:

positive net income during one of the two most recent calendar quarters;

a minimum in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $40 million;

a minimum tangible net worth of $1.25 billion;

a maximum ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of 10:1; and

at least one other warehouse or repurchase facility that finances amounts and assets that are similar to those being financed under certain of our existing secured financing agreements.

With respect to servicing performed for PMT, PLS is also subject to certain covenants under PMT’s debt agreements. Covenants in PMT’s debt agreements are equally, or sometimes less, restrictive than the covenants described above.

In addition to the covenants noted above, the indenture governing our Unsecured Notes contains covenants that limit our and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to engage in specified types of transactions. These covenants limit our and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things:

pay dividends or distributions, redeem or repurchase equity, prepay subordinated debt and make certain loans or investments;
incur, assume or guarantee additional debt or issue preferred stock;
incur liens on assets;
merge or consolidate with another person or sell all or substantially all of our assets to another person;
transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of certain assets including capital stock of subsidiaries;
enter into transactions with affiliates; and
allow to exist certain restrictions on the ability of our non-guarantor restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to us.

Although these financial covenants limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and affect our liquidity through minimum cash reserve requirements, we believe that these covenants currently provide us with sufficient flexibility to successfully operate our business and obtain the financing necessary to achieve that purpose.

Our debt financing agreements also contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender at its option, require us to transfer cash or, in some instances, additional assets in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. A margin deficit will generally result from any decline in the market value (as determined by the applicable lender) of the assets subject to the related financing agreement. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

We are also subject to liquidity and net worth requirements established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) for Agency seller/servicers and Ginnie Mae for single-family issuers. FHFA and Ginnie Mae have established

76

Table of Contents

minimum liquidity and net worth requirements for their approved non-depository single-family sellers/servicers in the case of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae for its approved single-family issuers, as summarized below:

Effective June 30, 2020, FHFA liquidity requirement is equal to 0.035% (3.5 basis points) of total Agency servicing UPB plus an incremental 200 basis points of the amount by which total nonperforming Agency servicing UPB (reduced by 70% of the UPB of nonperforming Agency loans that are in COVID-19 payment forbearance and were current when they entered such forbearance) exceeds 6% of the applicable Agency servicing UPB; allowable assets to satisfy liquidity requirement include cash and cash equivalents (unrestricted), certain investment-grade securities that are available for sale or held for trading including Agency mortgage-backed securities, obligations of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, and U.S. Treasury obligations, and unused and available portions of committed servicing advance lines;

FHFA net worth requirement is a minimum net worth of $2.5 million plus 0.25% (25 basis points) of UPB for total 1-4 unit residential mortgage loans serviced and a tangible net worth/total assets ratio greater than or equal to 6%;

Ginnie Mae single-family issuer minimum liquidity requirement is equal to the greater of $1.0 million or 0.10% (10 basis points) of the issuer’s outstanding Ginnie Mae single-family securities, which must be met with cash and cash equivalents; and

Ginnie Mae net worth requirement is equal to $2.5 million plus 0.35% (35 basis points) of the issuer’s outstanding Ginnie Mae single-family obligations.

On January 31, 2020, FHFA proposed changes to the eligibility requirements, which would increase the tangible net worth requirement to $2.5 million plus 35 basis points of the UPB of loans serviced for Ginnie Mae and 25 basis points of the UPB of all other 1-4 unit loans serviced, and increase the liquidity requirement to 4 basis points of the aggregate UPB serviced for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and 10 basis points of the UPB serviced for Ginnie Mae plus 300 basis points of total nonperforming Agency servicing UPB (including nonperforming Agency loans that are in payment forbearance) in excess of 4% of total Agency servicing UPB. On June 15, 2020, FHFA announced that it will be re-proposing changes to these requirements.

We believe that we are currently in compliance with the applicable Agency requirements.

We have purchased portfolios of MSRs and have financed them in part through the sale to PMT of the right to receive ESS. The outstanding amount of the ESS is based on the current fair value of such ESS and amounts received on the underlying mortgage loans.

On June 10, 2020, our Board of Directors increased our common stock repurchase program from $50 million to $500 million. Share repurchases may be effected through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date and the authorization does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock. From inception through September 30, 2020, we have repurchased $263.2 million of shares under our stock repurchase program.

We continue to explore a variety of means of financing our continued growth, including debt financing through bank warehouse lines of credit, bank loans, repurchase agreements, securitization transactions and corporate debt. However, there can be no assurance as to how much additional financing capacity such efforts will produce, what form the financing will take or whether such efforts will be successful.

Debt Obligations

As described further above in “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” we currently finance certain of our assets through borrowings with major financial institution counterparties in the form of sales of assets under agreements to repurchase, mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements, notes payable (including a revolving credit agreement), ESS and a capital lease. The borrower under each of these facilities is PLS or the Issuer Trust with the exception of the capital lease where the borrower is PennyMac. All PLS obligations as previously noted are guaranteed by PennyMac.

Under the terms of these agreements, PLS is required to comply with certain financial covenants, as described further above in “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and various non-financial covenants customary for transactions of this nature. As of September 30, 2020, we believe we were in compliance in all material respects with these covenants.

The agreements also contain margin call provisions that, upon notice from the applicable lender, require us to transfer cash or, in some instances, additional assets in an amount sufficient to eliminate any margin deficit. Upon notice from the applicable lender, we will generally be required to satisfy the margin call on the day of such notice or within one business day thereafter, depending on the timing of the notice.

In addition, the agreements contain events of default (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods), including payment defaults, breaches of covenants and/or certain representations and warranties, cross-defaults, guarantor defaults, servicer termination events and defaults, material adverse changes, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings and other events of default customary for these types of transactions. The remedies for such events of default are also customary for these types of transactions and include the acceleration of the principal amount outstanding under the agreements and the liquidation by our lenders of the mortgage loans or other collateral then subject to the agreements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices, real estate values and other market-based risks. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are fair value risk, interest rate risk and prepayment risk.

Fair Value Risk

Our IRLCs, mortgage loans held for sale, MSRs, MSLs and ESS financing are reported at their fair values. The fair value of these assets fluctuates primarily due to changes in interest rates. The fair value risk we face is primarily attributable to interest rate risk and prepayment risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, and other factors beyond our control. Changes in interest rates affect both the fair value of, and interest income we earn from, our mortgage-related investments and our derivative financial instruments. This effect is most pronounced with fixed-rate mortgage assets.

In general, rising interest rates negatively affect the fair value of our IRLCs, inventory of mortgage loans held for sale and ESS financing and positively affect the fair value of our MSRs. Changes in interest rate significantly influence the prepayment speeds of the loans underlying our investments in MSRs and ESS, which can have a significant effect on their fair values. Changes in interest rate are most prominently reflected in the prepayment speeds of the loans underlying our investments in MSRs and ESS and the discount rate used in their valuation.

Our operating results will depend, in part, on differences between the income from our investments and our financing costs. Presently our debt financing is based on a floating rate of interest calculated on a fixed spread over the relevant index, as determined by the particular financing arrangement.

Prepayment Risk

To the extent that the actual prepayment rate on the mortgage loans underlying our MSRs differs from what we projected when we initially recognized these assets and liabilities when we measure fair value as of the end of each reporting period, the carrying value of these assets and liabilities will be affected. In general, a decrease in the principal balances of the mortgage loans underlying our MSRs or an increase in prepayment expectations will decrease our estimates of the fair value of the MSRs, thereby reducing net servicing income, partially offset by the beneficial effect on net servicing income of a corresponding reduction in the fair value of our MSLs and ESS.

Risk Management Activities

We engage in risk management activities primarily in an effort to mitigate the effect of changes in interest rates on the fair value of our assets. To manage this price risk, we use derivative financial instruments acquired with the intention of moderating the risk that changes in market interest rates will result in unfavorable changes in the fair value of our assets, primarily prepayment exposure on our MSR investments as well as IRLCs and our inventory of loans held for sale. Our objective is to minimize our hedging expense and maximize our loss coverage based on a given hedge expense target. We do not use derivative financial instruments other than IRLCs and repurchase agreement derivatives (both of which arise from our operations) for purposes other than in support of our risk management activities.

Our strategies are reviewed daily within a disciplined risk management framework. We use a variety of interest rate and spread shifts and scenarios and define target limits for market value and liquidity loss in those scenarios. With respect to our IRLCs and inventory of loans held for sale, we use MBS forward sale contracts to lock in the price at which we will sell the mortgage loans or resulting MBS, and further use MBS put options to mitigate the risk of our IRLCs not closing at the rate we expect. With respect to our MSRs, we seek to mitigate mortgage-based loss exposure utilizing MBS forward purchase and sale contracts, address exposures to smaller interest rate shifts with Treasury and interest rate swap futures, and use options and swaptions to achieve target coverage levels for larger interest rate shocks.

Fair Value Sensitivities

The following sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed at a particular point in time; only contemplate the movements in the indicated variables; do not incorporate changes to other variables; are subject to the accuracy of various models and inputs used; and do not incorporate other factors that would affect our overall financial performance in such scenarios, including operational adjustments made by management to account for changing circumstances. For these reasons, the following estimates should not be viewed as earnings forecasts.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. However, no matter how well a control system is designed and operated, it can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in our periodic reports.

Our management has conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act. Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various legal and regulatory proceedings, lawsuits and other claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. The amount, if any, of ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be determined, but despite the inherent uncertainties of litigation, management believes that the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings and exposure will not have, individually or taken together, a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company. Set forth below are material updates to legal proceedings of the Company.

On December 20, 2018, a purported shareholder of the Company filed a complaint in a putative class and derivative action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), captioned Robert Garfield v. BlackRock Mortgage Ventures, LLC et al., Case No. 2018-0917-KSJM (the “Garfield Action”). The Garfield Action alleges, among other things, that certain current directors and officers of the Company breached their fiduciary duties to the Company and its shareholders by, among other things, agreeing to and entering into the Reorganization without ensuring that the Reorganization was entirely fair to the Company or public shareholders. The Reorganization was approved by 99.8% of voting shareholders on October 24, 2018. On December 19, 2019, the Delaware Court denied a motion to dismiss filed by the Company and certain of its directors and officers. While the Company and its co-defendants believe the Garfield Action is without merit and expressly disclaim any wrongdoing, they have collectively agreed to settle the Garfield Action for an amount equal to $6.85 million in order to avoid the ongoing costs of litigation and further distractions to their respective businesses. A settlement agreement was filed with the Delaware Court on October 9, 2020, and is currently pending approval. The Company’s share of the settlement amount will be paid entirely by one of the Company’s insurers.

On November 5, 2019, Black Knight Servicing Technologies, LLC, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Black Knight, Inc. (“BKI”), filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial in the Circuit Court for the Fourth Judicial Circuit in and for Duval County, Florida (the “Florida State Court”), captioned Black Knight Servicing Technologies, LLC v. PennyMac Loan Services, LLC, Case No. 2019-CA-007908 (the “BKI Complaint”). Allegations contained within the BKI Complaint include breach of contract and misappropriation of MSP® System trade secrets in order to develop an imitation mortgage-processing system intended to replace the MSP® System. The BKI Complaint seeks damages for breach of contract and misappropriation of trade secrets, injunctive relief under the Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act and declaratory judgment of ownership of all intellectual property and software developed by or on behalf of PLS as a result of its wrongful use of and access to the MSP® System and related trade secret and confidential information. On March 30, 2020, the Florida State Court granted a motion to compel arbitration filed by the Company. While no assurance can be provided to the ultimate outcome of this claim or the account of any losses to the Company, the Company believes the BKI Complaint is without merit and plans to vigorously defend the matter, which remains pending. Any potential range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated at this time primarily because the matter involves complex factual and legal issues; there is substantial uncertainty regarding any alleged damages, and the matter is at a preliminary stage of litigation.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2020, except for the following:

Our business, financial condition and results of operations have been, and will likely continue to be, adversely affected by the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented economic, financial and public health disruptions that have adversely affected, and are likely to continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition and results of operations. The extent to which COVID-19 continues to negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to COVID-19.

83

Table of Contents

The federal government enacted the CARES Act, which allows borrowers with federally-backed loans to request temporary payment forbearance in response to the increased borrower hardships resulting from COVID-19. As a result of the CARES Act forbearance requirements, we expect to record additional increases in delinquencies in our servicing portfolio that may require us to finance substantial amounts of advances of principal and interest payments to the investors holding those loans, as well as advances of property taxes, insurance premiums and other expenses to protect investors’ interests in the properties securing the loans.. We also expect the effects of the CARES Act forbearance requirements to reduce our servicing income and increase our servicing expenses due to the increased number of delinquent loans, significant levels of forbearance that we have granted and continue to grant, as well as the resolution of loans that we expect to ultimately default as the result of COVID-19. Future servicing advances will be driven by the number of borrower delinquencies, including those resulting from payment forbearance; the amount of time borrowers remain delinquent; and the level of successful resolution of delinquent payments, all of which will be impacted by the pace at which the economy recovers from the Pandemic.

Financial markets have experienced substantial volatility and reduced liquidity, resulting in unprecedented federal government intervention to lower the federal funds rate to near zero and support market liquidity by purchasing assets in many financial markets, including the mortgage-backed securities market. The CARES Act forbearance requirements and the decline in financial markets have negatively impacted the fair value of our servicing assets. In addition, the CARES Act forbearance requirements and the decline in financial markets have caused PMT to report material losses and negatively affected PMT's shareholders' equity and, as a result, our net assets under management.  Consequently, we have experienced a reduction in our base management fees from PMT, and we do not expect to earn performance incentive fees from PMT for the foreseeable future. Further market volatility may result in additional declines in the value of our servicing assets, lower base management fees and make it increasingly difficult to optimize our hedging activities. Also, our liquidity and/or regulatory capital could be adversely impacted by volatility and disruptions in the capital and credit markets. In addition, if we fail to meet or satisfy any of the covenants in our repurchase agreements or other financing arrangements as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we would be in default under these agreements, which could result in a cross-default or cross-acceleration under other financing arrangements, and our lenders could elect to declare outstanding amounts due and payable (or such amounts may automatically become due and payable), terminate their commitments, require the posting of additional collateral and enforce their respective interests against existing collateral.

We may also have difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may adversely affect our access to capital necessary to fund our operations or address maturing liabilities on a timely basis. This includes renewals of our existing credit facilities with our lenders who are also adversely impacted by the volatility and dislocations in the financial markets and may not be willing to continue to extend us credit on the same terms, or on favorable terms, or at all.

In addition, our business could be disrupted if we are unable to operate due to changing governmental restrictions such as travel bans and quarantines placed on our employees or operations, including, successfully operating our business from remote locations, ensuring the protection of our employees’ health and maintaining our information technology infrastructure. 

Governmental authorities have taken additional measures to stabilize the financial markets and support the economy. The success of these measures are unknown and they may not be sufficient to address the current market dislocations or avert severe and prolonged reductions in economic activity. We may also face increased risks of disputes with our business partners, litigation and governmental and regulatory scrutiny as a result of the effects of COVID-19. The scope and duration of COVID-19 and the efficacy of the extraordinary measures put in place to address it are currently unknown. Even after COVID-19 subsides, the economy may not fully recover for some time and we may be materially and adversely affected by a prolonged recession or economic downturn.

Our Unsecured Notes have increased our overall indebtedness and contain restrictive covenants limiting our flexibility in operating our business.

On September 29, 2020 and October 19, 2020, we issued $650 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% unsecured senior notes due on October 15, 2025 (the “Unsecured Notes”). As our unsecured obligations, the repayment of the Unsecured Notes will depend in part on our restricted subsidiaries’ generation of cash flow and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to make such cash available to us, by dividend, debt repayment or other means. The Unsecured Notes’ indenture contain restrictive covenants that limit our and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to engage in specified types of transactions, including our ability and/or the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to:

84

Table of Contents

pay dividends or distributions, redeem or repurchase equity, prepay subordinated debt and make certain loans or investments;

incur, assume or guarantee additional debt or issue preferred stock;

incur liens on assets;

merge or consolidate with another person or sell all or substantially all of our assets to another person;

transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of certain assets including capital stock of subsidiaries;

enter into transactions with affiliates; and

allow to exist certain restrictions on the ability of our non-guarantor restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to us.

We may be unable to take advantage of future business opportunities because of the limitations imposed on us by the Unsecured Notes’ restrictive covenants. If we fail to comply with the Unsecured Notes’ restrictive covenants and are unable to obtain a waiver or amendment, an event of default would result under the terms of the Unsecured Notes’ indenture. In addition, the Unsecured Notes’ restrictive covenants and our overall level of indebtedness including our indebtedness under the Unsecured Notes could limit our ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, for working capital and general corporate purposes.

To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, financial condition and results of operations, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under the heading “Risk Factors.”

(1) In June 2020, the Company’s board of directors approved an increase to the Company’s common stock repurchase program from $50 million to $500 million. In addition, the Company entered into a privately negotiated transaction with The BlackRock Foundation under the revised stock repurchase program to repurchase 6,975,323 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $34 per share. The stock repurchase program does not require the Company to purchase a specific number of shares, and the timing and amount of any shares repurchased are based on market conditions and other factors, including price, regulatory requirements and capital availability. Stock repurchases may be effected through privately negotiated transactions or open market purchases, including pursuant to a trading plan implemented pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date but may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

This FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, dated as of October 19, 2020 (this “Supplemental Indenture”), is among PennyMac Financial Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), the Guarantors listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Guarantors” and, collectively with the Issuer, the “PennyMac Parties”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Indenture referred to below.

a.    On each Business Day that a Transaction is outstanding, the Pricing Rate shall be reset and, unless otherwise agreed, the accrued and unpaid Price Differential shall be settled in cash on each related Price Differential Payment Date.  Two Business Days prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Administrative Agent shall give Seller written or electronic notice of the amount of the Price Differential due on such Price Differential Payment Date.  On the Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Administrative Agent the Price Differential for the benefit of Buyers for such Price Differential Payment Date (along with any other amounts to be paid pursuant to Sections 7 and 35 hereof), by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

b.   If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Price Differential Payment Date, with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers (in addition to, and together with, the amount of such Price Differential) interest on the unpaid Repurchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate until the Price Differential is received in full by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers.

c.    If prior to any Price Differential Payment Date, Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, LIBOR is no longer in existence, or the administrator of LIBOR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR shall no longer be made available or used for determining the interest rate of loans, Administrative Agent may give prompt notice thereof to Seller, whereupon the rate for such period that will replace LIBOR for such period, and for all subsequent periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Administrative Agent, shall be the greater of (i) an alternative benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark rate (if any) incorporated therein) and (ii) zero, together with any proposed Successor Rate Conforming Changes, as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (any such rate, a “Successor Rate”). Any such determination of the Successor Rate shall be made by Administrative Agent in a

- 32 -


manner substantially consistent with market practice with respect to similarly situated counterparties with substantially similar assets in similar facilities; provided, that the foregoing standard shall only apply to repurchase transactions that are under the supervision of Administrative Agent’s investment bank New York mortgage finance business that administers the Transactions.

6.         Margin Maintenance; Reallocation of Purchase Price

a.    If at any time the outstanding Purchase Price of any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction is greater than the Asset Value of such Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction (a “Margin Deficit”), then Administrative Agent may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Margin Call”).

b.   Notice delivered pursuant to Section 6.a may be given by any written or electronic means.  With respect to a Margin Call in the amount of less than 5% of  the Purchase Price for all Transactions (a “Low Percentage Margin Call”), any notice given before 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day; notice given after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day following the date of such notice. With respect to all Margin Calls other than Low Percentage Margin Calls, any notice given before 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business  Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Business Day; notice given after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day. The foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”).  The failure of Administrative Agent, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Administrative Agent to do so at a later date.  Seller and Administrative Agent each agree that a failure or delay by Administrative Agent to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

c.    In the event that a Margin Deficit exists, Administrative Agent may retain any funds received by it to which Seller would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) shall be held by Administrative Agent against the related Margin Deficit and (ii) may be applied by Administrative Agent against the Repurchase Price of any Purchased Mortgage Loan for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.

- 33 -


d.   If at any time the outstanding Purchase Price-Base of any Purchased Mortgage Loan which is subject to a Transaction is greater than the Asset Value-Base of such Purchased Mortgage Loan (a “Purchase Price Deficit-Base”), and such Purchase Price Deficit-Base does not constitute a Margin Deficit, then the amount of such Purchase Price Deficit-Base shall be reallocated by the Administrative Agent and added first to the Purchase Price-Incremental 1 and if any amount remains, then the Purchase Price-Incremental 2; provided that the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly notify (which for this purpose may be by electronic communication) the Seller after such reallocation; provided further that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such reallocation and application of such funds.

7.         Income Payments

a.    The Securities Account is established by Servicer in accordance with the Securities Account Control Agreement.  Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers shall have sole dominion and control over the Securities Account.  If Income is paid in respect of any Purchased Mortgage Loan during the term of a Transaction, such Income shall be the property of Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers and shall be deposited in the Securities Account on a daily basis.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent agrees that if a third-party Servicer is in place for any Purchased Mortgage Loans, such Servicer shall deposit such Income to the Securities Account.  Seller shall deposit all Income received in its capacity as Servicer of any Purchased Mortgage Loans to the Securities Account in accordance with Section 12.c hereof.

b.   Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, funds deposited in the Securities Account and GNMA Account, as applicable, shall be held therein until the next Price Differential Payment Date.  Subject to the terms of the Securities Account Control Agreement, Seller shall withdraw any funds on deposit in the Securities Account and Buyer shall withdraw from the GNMA Account and distribute, respectively, such funds as follows:

(1)  first, to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers in payment of any accrued and unpaid Price Differential, to the extent not paid by Seller to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5;

(2)  second, without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent or Buyers under Section 6 of this Agreement, to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers, in the amount of any unpaid Margin Deficit;

(3)  third, to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers in reduction of the Repurchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, an amount equal to the full or partial prepayments of principal received on or with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans and, in the event that a Servicer Advance is paid in full, to the payment of the Purchase Price therefor;

- 34 -


(4)  fourth, to the payment of all other costs and fees payable to Administrative Agent or Buyers pursuant to this Agreement; and

(5)  fifth, to Seller, any remaining amounts.

c.    In the event that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, notwithstanding any provision set forth herein, Seller shall (A) remit all Income received with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan into the Securities Account or such other account and on such other date or dates as Administrative Agent notifies Seller in writing and (B) may apply all funds in the GNMA Account as Administrative Agent determines.

d.   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Section 7, within two (2) Business Days of receipt by Seller of any prepayment of principal in full, with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall remit such amount to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers and Administrative Agent shall immediately apply any such amount received by Administrative Agent to reduce the amount of the Repurchase Price due upon termination of the related Transaction.

8.         Security Interest

a.    On each Purchase Date, Seller hereby sells, assigns and conveys all rights and interests in the Purchased Mortgage Loans identified on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule and, the Repurchase Assets to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers and Repledgees.

g.         Each party’s obligations under this Section 11 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Buyer or a Buyer assignee or participant, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Program Agreement.

h.         Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans, and the Purchased Mortgage Loans as owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers and Seller agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from a Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

12.       Servicing

a.    Seller, on Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ behalf, shall service the Mortgage Loans consistent with the degree of skill and care that Seller customarily requires with respect to similar Mortgage Loans owned or managed by it and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and Agency, GNMA, HUD, FHA and VA guidelines, as applicable.  The Servicer shall (i) comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, (ii) maintain all state and federal licenses necessary for it to perform its servicing responsibilities hereunder and (iii) not impair the rights of Administrative Agent or Buyers in any Mortgage Loans or any payment thereunder.  Administrative Agent may terminate the servicing of any Mortgage Loan with the then existing Servicer in accordance with Section 12.d hereof.

b.   Seller shall hold or cause to be held all escrow funds collected by Seller as Servicer with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loans in trust accounts and shall apply the same for the purposes for which such funds were collected.  

c.    Seller shall deposit all collections received by Seller and Servicer on the Purchased Mortgage Loans in the Securities Account on a daily basis within one

- 45 -


(1) Business Day following receipt; provided, however, that any amounts required to be remitted to Administrative Agent shall be deposited in the Securities Account on or prior to the day on which such remittance is to occur.  

d.   Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have the right to immediately terminate Seller’s right to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans without payment of any penalty or termination fee. Seller shall cooperate in transferring the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to a successor servicer appointed by Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt any termination of the Servicer’s rights to service by the Administrative Agent as a result of an Event of Default shall be deemed part of an exercise of the Administrative Agent’s rights to cause the liquidation, termination or acceleration of this Agreement.

e.    If Seller should discover that, for any reason whatsoever, Seller or any entity responsible to Seller for managing or servicing any such Purchased Mortgage Loan has failed to perform fully Seller’s obligations under the Program Agreements or any of the obligations of such entities with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Seller shall promptly notify Administrative Agent.

f.    For the avoidance of doubt, Seller retains no economic rights to the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans. As such, Seller expressly acknowledges that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are sold to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers on a “servicing-released” basis with such servicing retained by Seller.

13.       Representations and Warranties

a.    Each of Seller and Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Buyers as of the date hereof and as of each Purchase Date for any Transaction that:

(1)    Seller and Guarantor Existence.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.  

(2)    Licenses.  Each of Seller and Guarantor is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each jurisdiction in which it transacts business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any applicable federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in either instance, the failure to take such action is not reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect and is not in default of such state’s applicable laws, rules and regulations.  Seller has the requisite power and authority and legal right and necessary licenses (including from VA and FHA, if applicable) to originate and purchase Mortgage Loans (as applicable) and to own, sell and grant a lien on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has the requisite power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the

- 46 -


terms and conditions of, this Agreement, each Program Agreement and any Transaction Request.  Seller is an FHA Approved Mortgagee.

(3)    Power.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(4)    Due Authorization.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Agreements, as applicable.  This Agreement, any Transaction Request and the Program Agreements have been (or, in the case of Program Agreements and any Transaction Request not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by Seller and Guarantor, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against Seller and Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

(5)    Financial Statements.  

a.    Guarantor has heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent a copy of its consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of Guarantor ended December 31, 2019 and the related consolidated statements of income for Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, with the opinion thereon of Deloitte & Touche LLP.  All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of Guarantor and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations as at such dates and for such fiscal periods, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.  Since December 31, 2019, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Guarantor aware of any state of facts which (with notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change.  Guarantor has, on the date of the statements delivered pursuant to this Section (the “Statement Date”) no liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Guarantor except as heretofore disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing.

b.    Seller has heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent a copy of its balance sheet for the fiscal year of Seller ended December 31, 2019

- 47 -


and the related statements of income for Seller for such fiscal year, with the opinion thereon of Deloitte & Touche LLP.  All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition of Seller and the results of its operations as at such dates and for such fiscal periods, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.  Since December 31, 2019, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of Seller from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Seller aware of any state of facts which (with notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change.  Seller has, on the Statement Date no liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Seller except as heretofore disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing.

(6)    Event of Default.  There exists no Event of Default under Section 15.b hereof, which default gives rise to a right to accelerate indebtedness as referenced in Section 15.b hereof, under any mortgage, borrowing agreement or other instrument or agreement pertaining to indebtedness for borrowed money or to the repurchase of mortgage loans or securities.

(7)    Solvency.  Each of Seller and Guarantor is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Transaction and, after giving effect to such Transaction, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business.  Neither Seller nor Guarantor intends to incur, nor believes that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature and is not contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of such entity or any of its assets.  The amount of consideration being received by Seller upon the sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for such Purchased Mortgage Loans.  Seller is not transferring any Purchased Mortgage Loans with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

(8)    No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance by each of Seller and Guarantor of this Agreement or any Transaction Request hereunder and the Program Agreements do not conflict with any term or provision of the organizational documents of Seller or Guarantor or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree applicable to Seller or Guarantor of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over Seller or Guarantor, which conflict would have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in any violation of any such mortgage, instrument, agreement or obligation to which Seller or Guarantor is a party.

(12)      Material Adverse Change.  There has been no material adverse change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or prospects of Seller, Guarantor or their Affiliates since the date set forth in the most recent financial statements supplied to Administrative Agent as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole good faith discretion.

Seller, Guarantor and their Subsidiaries have timely filed all tax returns that are required to be filed by them and have paid all taxes, except for any such taxes as are being appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been provided.  The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Seller, Guarantor and their Subsidiaries in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are, in the opinion of Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, adequate.

(16)      Investment Company.  Neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries is required to register as an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; provided, however, that any entity that is under the management of PNMAC Capital Management LLC in its capacity as an “investment adviser” within the meaning of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and is otherwise not directly or indirectly owned or controlled by Seller shall not be deemed a “Subsidiary” for the purposes of this Section 13.a(16).

(17)      Chief Executive Office; Jurisdiction of Organization.  On the Effective Date, Seller’s chief executive office, is, and has been, located at 3043 Townsgate Road, Westlake Village, CA 91361.

(25)      No Reliance.  Each of Seller and Guarantor has made its own independent decisions to enter into the Program Agreements and each Transaction and as to whether such Transaction is appropriate and proper for it based upon its own judgment and upon advice from such advisors (including without limitation, legal counsel and accountants) as it has deemed necessary.  Neither Seller nor Guarantor is relying upon any advice from Administrative Agent or Buyers as to any aspect of the Transactions, including without limitation, the legal, accounting or tax treatment of such Transactions.

s.    Transactions with Affiliates.  Seller will not enter into any transaction, including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, with any Affiliate unless such transaction is (a) otherwise permitted under the Program Agreements, (b) in the ordinary course of Seller’s business and (c) upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to Seller than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person which is not an Affiliate, or make a payment that is not otherwise permitted by this Section to any Affiliate.

16.       Remedies Upon Default

In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred:

a.    Administrative Agent may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled).  Administrative Agent shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller) give notice to Seller and Guarantor of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

b.   If Administrative Agent exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Section, (i) Seller’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Mortgage Loan, including Servicer Advances, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Section, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by Administrative Agent and applied, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices for all outstanding Transactions and any other amounts owing by Seller (provided that any determination with respect to what portion of the Purchase Price is attributed to the Purchase Price-Base, Purchase Price-Incremental 1 or Purchase Price-Incremental 2 shall be made in accordance with the Purchase Price definition), and (iii) Seller shall immediately deliver to Administrative Agent the Mortgage Files relating to any Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances subject to such Transactions then in Seller’s possession or control.

c.    Administrative Agent also shall have the right to obtain physical possession, and to commence an action to obtain physical possession, of all Records and files

- 62 -


of Seller relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Servicer Advances and all documents relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances (including, without limitation, any legal, credit or servicing files with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances) which are then or may thereafter come in to the possession of Seller or any third party acting for Seller.  To obtain physical possession of any Purchased Mortgage Loans held by Custodian, Administrative Agent shall present to Custodian an Asset Confirm.  Without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Administrative Agent for Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Administrative Agent from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

d.   Administrative Agent shall have the right to direct all servicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans to remit all collections thereon to Administrative Agent, and if any such payments are received by Seller, Seller shall not commingle the amounts received with other funds of Seller and shall promptly pay them over to Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall also have the right to terminate any one or all of the servicers then servicing any Purchased Mortgage Loans with or without cause.  In addition, Administrative Agent shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances and liquidate all Repurchase Assets.  Such disposition of Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances may be, at Administrative Agent’s option, on either a servicing-released or a servicing-retained basis.  Administrative Agent shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances with respect to any such disposition thereof.  Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or Servicer Advances.  The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances and liquidation of the Repurchase Assets shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof.  Seller agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Administrative Agent to dispose of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, Servicer Advances or the Repurchase Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or the Repurchase Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets.  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to place the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances in a pool for issuance of mortgage-backed securities at the then-prevailing price for such securities and to sell such securities for such prevailing price in the open market.  Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances individually for the prevailing price. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled, in its sole discretion to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances, to give Seller credit for

- 63 -


such Purchased Mortgage Loans, Servicer Advances and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder.

e.    Upon the happening of one or more Events of Default, Administrative Agent may apply any proceeds from the liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Servicer Advances and Repurchase Assets to the Repurchase Prices hereunder and all other Obligations in the manner Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion.

f.    Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and each Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and each Buyer in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other agreement evidencing a Transaction, whether in action, suit or litigation or bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting  creditors’ rights generally, further including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (including the costs of internal counsel of Administrative Agent and Buyers) incurred in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction.

g.   To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and each Buyer for interest on any amounts owing by Seller hereunder, from the date Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ rights hereunder.  Interest on any sum payable by Seller under this Section 16.g shall be at a rate equal to the Post-Default Rate.

h.   Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or applicable law.

i.    Administrative Agent may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Administrative Agent immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent provided in subsections (a) and (d) of this Section, at any time thereafter without notice to Seller.  All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Administrative Agent may have.

j.    Administrative Agent may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Administrative Agent to enforce its rights by judicial process.  Seller also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment

- 64 -


or performance) Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, or from any other election of remedies.  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.

k.   Administrative Agent shall have the right to perform reasonable due diligence with respect to Seller, the Mortgage Loans and Servicer Advances, which review shall be at the expense of Seller.

Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, and (ii)  that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

21.       Entire Agreement; Severability

This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions.  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.

22.       Non Assignability

a.    Assignments. The Program Agreements are not assignable by Seller or Guarantor. Subject to Section 37 (Acknowledgment of Assignment and Administration of Repurchase Agreement) hereof, the Administrative Agent and Buyers may from time to time assign all or a portion of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements; provided, that, unless an Event of Default has occurred, (i) an assignment by a Committed Buyer or (ii) an assignment to a non-Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers, shall, in each case, require Seller’s prior consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees or participants (the “Register”) and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Administrative Agent and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Seller, Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Buyers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the preceding sentence as a Buyer hereunder. Upon such assignment and recordation in the Register, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Agreement to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder, as applicable, and (b) Administrative Agent and Buyers shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by them pursuant to this Section, be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Agreements.  Any assignment hereunder shall be deemed a joinder of such assignee as a Buyer hereto. Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Administrative Agent unless otherwise notified by Administrative Agent in writing.  Administrative Agent and Buyers may distribute to any prospective or actual assignee this Agreement, the other Program Agreements, any document or other information delivered to Administrative Agent and/or Buyers by Seller.

- 72 -


b.   Participations.  Any Buyer may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the Program Agreements; provided, however, that (i) such Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Administrative Agent and/or Buyers in connection with such Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements except as provided in Section 11.  Administrative Agent and Buyers may distribute to any prospective or actual participant this Agreement, the other Program Agreements any document or other information delivered to Administrative Agent and/or Buyers by Seller; provided, that, Administrative Agent or Buyers, as applicable, will cause such party to execute and deliver a non-disclosure agreement whereby such prospective or actual participant agrees to  keep such information delivered by Administrative Agent or any Buyer to such party confidential, on substantially similar terms as set forth in Section 32 of this Agreement.

23.       Set-off

In addition to any rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder and by law, the Administrative Agent and Buyers shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller or Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller and Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to a 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 excess margin), 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 a Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof. Administrative Agent agrees promptly to notify the Seller or Guarantor after any such set off and application made by a Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

24.       Binding Effect; Governing Law; Jurisdiction

a.    This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Seller acknowledges that the obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Administrative Agent and Buyers.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (EXCEPT FOR SECTION 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

b.   EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY.  EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF THE

- 73 -


STATE OF NEW YORK, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING.  EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY SUBMITS TO, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS.

25.       No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder.  No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto.  Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 6.a, 16.a or otherwise, will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

26.       Intent

a.    The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, and a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code, and that the pledge of the Repurchase Assets constitutes “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” the Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each of Seller, Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Buyers further recognize and intend that this Agreement is an agreement to provide financial accommodations and is not subject to assumption pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365(a).  

b.   Administrative Agent’s or a Buyer’s right to liquidate the Purchased Assets, Repurchase Assets and Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with the Transactions hereunder or to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or otherwise exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate, accelerate or terminate such Transaction as described in Bankruptcy Code Sections 555, 559 and 561; any payments or transfers of property made with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction to satisfy a Margin Deficit shall be considered a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5).

- 74 -


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 “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 101(47), Section 555, Section 559 and Section 741 under the Bankruptcy Code.

f.    Each party agrees that this Agreement is intended to create mutuality of obligations among the parties, and as such, the Agreement constitutes a contract which (i) is between all of the parties and (ii) places each party in the same right and capacity.

g.   For U.S. federal tax purposes, the Seller, the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, each Administrative Agent assignee, the Buyers, and each Buyer assignee by acquiring an interest in any Transaction agree to treat and report each Transaction as indebtedness issued by the Seller or the Guarantor as the case may be, which indebtedness, in the case of each obligor, shall have but a single maturity for purposes of Code section 7701(i)(2)(A)(ii) and U.S. Treasury Regulation section 301.7701(i)-1(e).

27.       Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

a.    in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15 of the 1934 Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the SIPA do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

b.   in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

c.    in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not

- 75 -


a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

28.       Power of Attorney

Seller hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets as Administrative Agent, at its option, may deem appropriate.  Seller hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Seller’s agent and attorney-in-fact to execute any such financing statement or statements in Seller’s name and to perform all other acts which Administrative Agent deems appropriate to perfect and continue its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, and sign assignments on behalf of Seller as its agent and attorney-in-fact.  This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Administrative Agent’s consent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 28.  In addition the foregoing, Seller agrees to execute an amended and restated power of attorney in the form of Exhibit E hereto (the “Power of Attorney”), to be delivered on the date hereof.

29.       Buyers May Act Through Administrative Agent

Each Buyer has designated the Administrative Agent for the purpose of performing any action hereunder.

30.       Indemnification; Obligations

a.    Each of Seller and Guarantor agrees to hold Administrative Agent, Buyers and each of their respective Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify each Indemnified Party (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same is incurred) against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Transaction Request, any Program Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, (i) any such liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses arising from any acts or omissions of such party and (ii) any wire fraud or data or systems intrusions which causes Administrative Agent or Buyers to suffer any such liability, loss, damage, judgment, cost and/or expense) resulting from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Each of Seller and Guarantor also agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy provided for herein, any Transaction Request and any Program Agreement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel.  Seller’s and Guarantor’s agreements in this Section 30

- 76 -


shall survive the payment in full of the Repurchase Price and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.  Each of Seller and Guarantor hereby acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are recourse obligations of Seller and Guarantor and are not limited to recoveries each Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans.  Each of Seller and Guarantor also agrees not to assert any claim against Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the facility established hereunder, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.  THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

b.   Without limitation to the provisions of Section 4, if any payment of the Repurchase Price of any Transaction is made by Seller other than on the then scheduled Repurchase Date thereto as a result of an acceleration of the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 16 or for any other reason, Seller shall, upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay to Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers an amount sufficient to compensate Buyers for any losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as of a result of such payment.

c.    Without limiting the provisions of Section 30.a hereof, if Seller fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of Seller by Administrative Agent (subject to reimbursement by Seller), in its sole discretion.

31.       Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement in a Portable Document Format (PDF) or by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of this Agreement.  The parties agree that this Agreement, any addendum or amendment hereto or any other document necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be accepted, executed or agreed to through the use of an electronic signature in accordance with the E-SIGN, UETA and any applicable state law.  Any document accepted, executed or agreed to in conformity with such laws will be binding on all parties hereto to the same extent as if it were physically executed and each party hereby consents to the use of any secure third party electronic signature capture service providers with appropriate document access tracking, electronic signature tracking and document retention as may be approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

- 77 -


32.       Confidentiality

a.    This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Administrative Agent, Buyers and Agent or Seller and Guarantor, 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 Administrative Agent, Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, except for (i) disclosure to the disclosing party’s direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys, accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, (ii)  disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body (“Governmental Order”) or rating agency in connection with any securities issued by Buyer or an Affiliate of a Buyer, (iii) disclosure as Administrative Agent and Buyers deem appropriate in connection with the enforcement of Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ rights hereunder or under any Transaction or in connection with working with Administrative Agent’s and Buyer’s affiliates, Subsidiaries and representatives in connection with the management and/or review of the Transactions, (iv) disclosure of any confidential terms that are in the public domain other than due to a breach of this covenant, and (v) disclosure made to an assignee, participant, repledgee or any of their direct and indirect affiliates and Subsidiaries, representatives, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary in connection with the transactions or performing rights or obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreement, 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 Seller may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Administrative Agent and Buyers or Agent or any pricing terms (including, without limitation, the Commitment Fee, Aggregate Purchase Price-Base, Aggregate Purchase Price-Incremental 1, Aggregate Purchase Price-Incremental 2, Asset Value, Asset Value-Base, Asset Value-Incremental 1, Asset Value-Incremental 2, Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price-Incremental 1, Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price-Incremental 2, Maximum Purchase Price-Incremental 1, Maximum Purchase Price Percentage-Incremental 2, Maximum Purchase Price Percentage-Incremental 1, Maximum Purchase Price Percentage-Incremental 2, Maximum Value Amount, Minimum Purchase Price-Incremental 2, Minimum Purchase Price Percentage-Incremental 2, Price Differential, Price Differential-Base, Price Differential-Incremental 1, Price Differential-Incremental 2, Pricing Rate, Pricing Rate-Base, Pricing Rate-Incremental 1, Purchase Price-Incremental 2, Purchase Price, Purchase Price-Base, Purchase Price -Incremental 1, Purchase Price-Incremental 2, Purchase Price Percentage, Purchase Price Percentage-Base, Purchase Price Percentage-Incremental 1, Purchase Price Percentage-Incremental 2 and any other fees specified in the Pricing Side Letter) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) 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 Administrative Agent.

b.   Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without limitation, all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and/or any applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”).  Seller understands that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as

- 78 -


that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “Act”), and Seller agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws.  Seller 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 Act) of  Administrative Agent and Buyers or any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers which Seller 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. Seller represents and warrants that it has implemented appropriate measures to meet the objectives of Section 501(b) of the Act and of the applicable standards adopted pursuant thereto, as now or hereafter in effect.  Upon request, Seller will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow Administrative Agent and/or Buyers to confirm that the providing party has satisfied its obligations as required under this Section.  Without limitation, this may include Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of Seller.  Seller shall notify the Administrative Agent immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of Administrative Agent, Buyers or any Affiliate of Buyers provided directly to Seller by Administrative Agent, Buyers or such Affiliate.  Seller shall provide such notice to Administrative Agent by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.

33.       Recording of Communications

Administrative Agent, Buyers, Seller and Guarantor shall have the right (but not the obligation) from time to time to make or cause to be made tape recordings of communications between its employees and those of the other party with respect to Transactions.  Administrative Agent, Buyers, Seller and Guarantor consent to the admissibility of such tape recordings in any court, arbitration, or other proceedings.  The parties agree that a duly authenticated transcript of such a tape recording shall be deemed to be a writing conclusively evidencing the parties’ agreement.

34.       Commitment Fee

No later than the date hereof, Seller shall pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Committed Buyers in immediately available funds a non-refundable Commitment Fee. The Commitment Fee shall be paid in quarterly equal installments which shall be paid on the date hereof and on the Price Differential Payment Date every third (3rd) month hereafter.  All payments of the Commitment Fee shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Committed Buyers at such account designated by Administrative Agent.

35.       Periodic Due Diligence Review

Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers have the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to Seller and the Mortgage Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made

- 79 -


hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Administrative Agent, Buyers or their authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Files and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession or under the control of Seller and/or Custodian.  Seller also shall make available to Administrative Agent and Buyers a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Mortgage Loans.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers may purchase Mortgage Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Administrative Agent and Buyers in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Administrative Agent or Buyers, at their option, have the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Mortgage Loans purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering BPOs, new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate such Mortgage Loan. Administrative Agent or Buyers may underwrite such Mortgage Loans itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such underwriting.  Seller agrees to cooperate with Administrative Agent, Buyers and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Administrative Agent, Buyers and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller.  Seller further agrees that Seller shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Buyers in connection with Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ activities pursuant to this Section 35 (“Due Diligence Costs”); provided, that such Due Diligence Costs shall not exceed the Due Diligence Cap per calendar year unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred, in which event Administrative Agent and Buyers shall have the right to perform due diligence, at the sole expense of Seller without regard to the dollar limitation set forth herein.

36.       Authorizations  

Any of the persons whose signatures and titles appear on Schedule 2 are authorized, acting singly, to act for Seller or Administrative Agent to the extent set forth therein, as the case may be, under this Agreement.  The Seller may amend Schedule 2 from time to time by delivering a revised Schedule 2 to Administrative Agent and expressly stating that such revised Schedule 2 shall replace the existing Schedule 2.

37.       Acknowledgment of Assignment and Administration of Repurchase Agreement

Pursuant to Section 22 (Non assignability) of this Agreement, Administrative Agent may sell, transfer and convey or allocate certain Purchased Mortgage Loans, Purchased Assets and the related Repurchase Assets and related Transactions to certain affiliates of Administrative Agent and/or one or more CP Conduits (the “Additional Buyers”).  Seller and Guarantor each hereby acknowledges and agrees to the joinder of such Additional Buyers.  The Administrative Agent shall administer the provisions of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of

- 80 -


doubt, all payments, notices, communications and agreements pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered to, and entered into by, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Buyers and/or the Repledgees, as applicable.  Furthermore, to the extent that the Administrative Agent exercises remedies pursuant to this Agreement, any of the Administrative Agent and/or any Buyer will have the right to bid on and/or purchase any of the Repurchase Assets pursuant to Section 16 (Remedies Upon Default).  The benefit of all representations, rights, remedies and covenants set forth in the Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent on behalf of each Buyer and Repledgees, as applicable.  All provisions of the Agreement shall survive the transfers contemplated herein (including any Repledge Transactions).  Notwithstanding that multiple Buyers may purchase individual Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions entered into under this Agreement, all Transactions shall continue to be deemed a single Transaction and all of the Repurchase Assets shall be security for all of the Obligations hereunder.

38.       Acknowledgement of Anti-Predatory Lending Policies

Administrative Agent has in place internal policies and procedures that expressly prohibit its purchase of any High Cost Mortgage Loan.

39.       Documents Mutually Drafted

The Seller, the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the Buyers agree that this Agreement and each other Program Agreement prepared in connection with the Transactions set forth herein have been mutually drafted and negotiated by each party, and consequently such documents shall not be construed against either party as the drafter thereof.

40.       General Interpretive Principles

For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires:

a.    the terms defined in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement and include the plural as well as the singular, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other gender;

b.   accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

c.    references herein to “Articles”, “Sections”, “Subsections”, “Paragraphs”, and other subdivisions without reference to a document are to designated Articles, Sections, Subsections, Paragraphs and other subdivisions of this Agreement;

d.   a reference to a Subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such Subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and this rule shall also apply to Paragraphs and other subdivisions;

e.    the words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision;

- 81 -


f.    the term “include” or “including” shall mean without limitation by reason of enumeration;

g.   all times specified herein or in any other Program Agreement  (unless expressly specified otherwise) are local times in New York, New York unless otherwise stated; and

h.   all references herein or in any Program Agreement to "good faith" means good faith as defined in Section 1-201(b)(20) of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York.

41.       Conflicts

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Program Agreement, the documents shall control in the following order of priority:  first, the terms of the Pricing Side Letter shall prevail, then the terms of this Agreement shall prevail, and then the terms of the other Program Agreements shall prevail.

42.       Pool Subdivisions

The Administrative Agent may from time to time deliver to Seller a Pool Subdivision Notice which notice shall identify a Pool of Purchased Mortgage Loans that shall be treated separately from the remaining Purchased Mortgage Loans (which remaining Purchased Mortgage Loans shall constitute another Pool).  The Administrative Agent may modify any such Pool Subdivision Notice from time to time to readjust the composition of the Pools identified therein.  Following delivery of a Pool Subdivision Notice, the calculations with respect to Price Differential (and all of the component calculations used in determining such calculation) shall be calculated separately on the basis of the Purchased Mortgage Loans comprising each Pool, which shall result in a separate Price Differential for each Pool.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Pool Subdivision Notice shall not (a) modify or otherwise affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Program Agreements except as expressly contemplated in this Section 42; and (b) shall not be construed as a Severance Notice as contemplated by Section 19 of this Agreement.

43.       Bankruptcy Non-Petition

The parties hereby agree that they shall not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, any Buyer that is a CP Conduit any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by the applicable CP Conduit is paid in full.

44.       Limited Recourse

The obligations of each Buyer under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement are solely the corporate obligations of such Buyer. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing by any Buyer under this Agreement, or for the payment by any Buyer of any fee in respect hereof or any other obligation or claim of or against such Buyer arising out of or based on this Agreement, against any stockholder, partner, member, employee, officer, director or

- 82 -


incorporator or other authorized person of such Buyer. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Parties agree that all payment obligations of any Buyer that is a CP Conduit under this Agreement shall be limited recourse obligations of such Buyer, payable solely from the funds of such Buyer available for such purpose in accordance with its commercial paper program documents. Each party waives payment of any amount which such Buyer does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence until the day which is at least one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note (and waives any "claim" against such Buyer within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law for any such insufficiency until such date).

SCHEDULE 1-A

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO PURCHASED MORTGAGE LOANS

Seller makes the following representations and warranties to Administrative Agent with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan that is at all times subject to a Transaction hereunder and at all times while the Program Agreements and any Transaction hereunder is in full force and effect.  With respect to those representations and warranties which are made to the best of a Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered by such Seller or Administrative Agent that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate, notwithstanding such Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty for purposes of determining Asset Value.

(a)        Payments Current.  Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a GNMA EBO, all payments required to be made up to the Purchase Date for the Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note have been made and credited.  Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a GNMA EBO, no payment required under the Mortgage Loan is delinquent nor has any payment under the Mortgage Loan been delinquent at any time since the origination of the Mortgage Loan and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Co-op Loan, no foreclosure action or private or public sale under the Uniform Commercial Code has ever to the knowledge of Seller, been threatened or commenced with respect to the Co-op Loan.  The first Monthly Payment shall be made, or shall have been made, with respect to the Mortgage Loan on its Due Date or within the grace period, all in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note.

(b)        No Outstanding Charges.  All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.  Neither Seller nor the Qualified Originator from which Seller acquired the Mortgage Loan has advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan, whichever is earlier, to the day which precedes by one month the Due Date of the first installment of principal and/or interest thereunder.

(c)        Original Terms Unmodified.  The terms of the Mortgage Note (and the Proprietary Lease, the Assignment of Proprietary Lease and Stock Power with respect to each Co-op Loan) and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the date of origination; except (i) by a written instrument which has been duly recorded or transmitted for recording, if necessary to protect the interests of Buyers, and which has been delivered to Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule and (ii) with respect to  a Mortgage Loan that is a GNMA EBO.  The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent

Schedule 1-A-1


required, and its terms are reflected on the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule.  No Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File delivered to Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule.  

(d)        No Defenses.  The Mortgage Loan (and the Assignment of Proprietary Lease related to each Co-op Loan) is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation, the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan was a debtor in any state or Federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated.  Seller has no knowledge nor has it received any notice that any Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

(e)        Hazard Insurance.  The Mortgaged Property is insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, and to the extent required by Seller as of the date of origination consistent with the Underwriting Guidelines, against earthquake and other risks insured against by Persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged Property, in an amount not less than the greatest of (i) 100% of the replacement cost of all improvements to the Mortgaged Property, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (iii) the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property, or (iv) with respect to a GNMA EBO, the BPO Value, and consistent with the amount that would have been required as of the date of origination in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines.  If any portion of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by any federal Governmental Authority as having special flood hazards, and flood insurance is available, a flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines of the Federal Emergency Management Agency is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (2) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973.  All such insurance policies (collectively, the “hazard insurance policy”) contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller, its successors and assigns (including, without limitation, subsequent owners of the Mortgage Loan), as mortgagee, and may not be reduced, terminated or canceled without 30 days’ prior written notice to the mortgagee.  No such notice has been received by Seller.  All premiums on such insurance policy have been paid.  The related Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor.  Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development.  The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect.  Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the

Schedule 1-A-2


Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(f)         Compliance with Applicable Laws.  Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations, and Seller shall maintain or shall cause its agent to maintain in its possession, available for the inspection of Administrative Agent, and shall deliver to Administrative Agent, upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such requirements.

(g)        No Satisfaction of Mortgage.  The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would affect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission (except with respect to subordination of a second lien HELOC to the first priority lien or security interest).  Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a GNMA EBO, Seller has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor.

(h)        Location and Type of Mortgaged Property.  The Mortgaged Property is located in an Acceptable State as identified in the Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit in a low-rise Co-op Project, or such other dwelling(s) conforming with the applicable Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac requirements; provided that no residence or dwelling is a mobile home. No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial purposes; provided, that, the Mortgaged Property may be a mixed use property if such Mortgaged Property conforms to underwriting guidelines acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

(i)         Valid First Lien.  The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and, with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, perfected first priority lien and first priority security interest or, with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, a second lien or a second priority security interest, in each case, on the real property included in the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property.  The appraisal of the Mortgaged Property does not list any material repair or maintenance items.  The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

a.    the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

Schedule 1-A-3


b.    covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (a) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal;

c.    other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property; and

d.    with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, a first lien.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable (a) with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, first lien and first priority security interest and (b) with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, second lien and second priority interest, in each case, on the property described therein and Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same to Administrative Agent.  The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage.

(j)         Validity of Mortgage Documents.  The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor or guarantor, if applicable, in connection with a Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms.  All parties to the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any such agreement, and the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement have been duly and properly executed by such related parties.  No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of any Person, including, without limitation, the Mortgagor, any appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party involved in the origination of the Mortgage Loan.  Seller has reviewed all of the documents constituting the Mortgage File and has made such inquiries as it deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set forth herein.  To the best of Seller’s knowledge, except as disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing, all tax identifications and property descriptions are legally sufficient; and tax segregation, where required, has been completed.  Such Purchased Mortgage Loan is a “closed” loan, is fully funded by Seller (except with respect to a HELOC), and held in Seller’s name.

(k)        Full Disbursement of Proceeds.  Except with respect to (i) a HELOC, (ii) a FHA 203(k) Loan, or (iii) an eligible, single-close, renovation or construction-to-permanent Agency Mortgage Loan, there is no further requirement for future advances under the Mortgage Loan, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with.  All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were

Schedule 1-A-4


paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

(l)         Ownership.  Seller has full right to sell the Mortgage Loan to Buyers free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell each Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the sale of each Mortgage Loan, Buyers will own such Mortgage Loan (and with respect to any Co-op Loan, the sole owner of the related Assignment of Proprietary Lease) free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest except any such security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(m)       Doing Business.  All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (i) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and (ii) either (A) organized under the laws of such state, (B) qualified to do business in such state, (C) a federal savings and loan association, a savings bank or a national bank having a principal office in such state, or (D) not doing business in such state.

(n)        Title Insurance.  The Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) except with respect to HELOCs covered by a Master Secondary Loan Policy acquired from Old Republic Home Protection and/or an errors and omissions policy approved by the Buyers in their sole discretion, an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans, and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans, and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage, other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, and with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans as to the second priority lien of the related Mortgage, as applicable, in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan, with respect to a Mortgage Loan, or, with respect to a HELOC, the original Credit Limit, (or to the extent a Mortgage Note provides for negative amortization, the maximum amount of negative amortization in accordance with the Mortgage), subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph (i) of this Schedule 1 with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans. Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance

Schedule 1-A-5


policy, and no prior holder or servicer of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance or other acceptable policy, including without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(o)        No Defaults.  Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a GNMA EBO, there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and neither Seller nor its predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration; and with respect to each Co-op Loan, there is no default in complying with the terms of the Mortgage Note, the Assignment of Proprietary Lease and the Proprietary Lease and all maintenance charges and assessments (including assessments payable in the future installments, which previously became due and owing) have been paid, and Seller has the right under the terms of the Mortgage Note, Assignment of Proprietary Lease and Recognition Agreement to pay any maintenance charges or assessments owed by the Mortgagor.

(p)        No Mechanics’ Liens.  There are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the Mortgage.

(q)        Location of Improvements; No Encroachments.  All improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.  No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning and building law, ordinance or regulation.

(r)         Origination; Payment Terms.  The Mortgage Loan was originated by or in conjunction with a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of HUD pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or similar banking institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority.  Except with respect to HELOCs, principal and/or interest payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty (60) days after funds were disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan.  With respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans, the Mortgagor contributed from their own funds to the purchase price for the Mortgaged Property, as required by the applicable Agency. With respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Interest Rate is adjusted on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date to equal the Index plus the Gross Margin (rounded up or down to the nearest 0.125%), subject to the Mortgage Interest Rate Cap. Except with respect to HELOCs, the Mortgage Note is payable on the first day of each month in equal monthly installments of principal and/or interest (subject to an “interest-only” period in the case of Interest Only Loans), which installments of interest (a) with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans are subject to change on the Interest Rate Adjustment Date due to adjustments to the

Schedule 1-A-6


Mortgage Interest Rate on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date and (b) with respect to Interest Only Loans are subject to change on the Interest Only Adjustment Date due to adjustments to the Mortgage Interest Rate on each Interest Only Adjustment Date, in both cases, with interest calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity date, over an original term of not more than thirty (30) years from commencement of amortization.  The Due Date of the first payment under the Mortgage Note is no more than sixty (60) days from the date of the Mortgage Note.  

(s)        Customary Provisions.  The Mortgage Note has a stated maturity.  The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure.  Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property. There is no homestead or other exemption or other right available to the Mortgagor or any other person, or restriction on Seller or any other person, including without limitation, any federal, state or local, law, ordinance, decree, regulation, guidance, attorney general action, or other pronouncement, whether temporary or permanent in nature, that would interfere with, restrict or delay, either (y) the ability of Seller, Administrative Agent, a Buyer or any servicer or any successor servicer to sell the related Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or otherwise, or (z) the ability of Seller, Administrative Agent, a Buyer or any servicer or any successor servicer to foreclose on the related Mortgage. Except with respect to HELOCs, the Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae.  If the Mortgage Loan is an eMortgage Loan, the related eNote contains the Agency-Required eNote Legend.

(t)         Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property.  As of the Purchase Date the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law.  All inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities.  Seller has not received notification from any Governmental Authority that the Mortgaged Property is in material non-compliance with such laws or regulations, is being used, operated or occupied unlawfully or has failed to have or obtain such inspection, licenses or certificates, as the case may be.  Seller has not received notice of any violation or failure to conform with any such law, ordinance, regulation, standard, license or certificate.  With respect to any Mortgage Loan originated with an “owner-occupied” Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor represented at the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan that the Mortgagor would occupy the Mortgaged Property as the Mortgagor’s primary residence.

(u)        No Additional Collateral.  The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in clause (i) above.

(v)        Deeds of Trust.  In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized and duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or

Schedule 1-A-7


will become payable by Custodian or Administrative Agent to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor.

(w)       Transfer of Mortgage Loans.  Except with respect to Mortgage Loans intended for purchase by GNMA and for Mortgage Loans registered with MERS, the Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.

(x)        Due-On-Sale.  Except with respect to Mortgage Loans originated pursuant to FHA Guidelines and as may otherwise be prohibited by applicable law, the Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the mortgagee thereunder.

(y)        No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests.  Except with respect to Agency Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by Seller, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it contain any other similar provisions which may constitute a “buydown” provision.  The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature.

(z)        Consolidation of Future Advances.  Any future advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the Purchase Date have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term.  The lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first lien priority with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, or second lien priority with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, in each case, by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans and acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans.  The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.

(aa)      Mortgaged Property Undamaged; No Condemnation Proceeding.  There have not been any condemnation proceedings with respect to the Mortgaged Property and Seller has no knowledge of any such proceedings. The Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty or if damaged, such physical damage (i) is not adequately insured against or (ii) would materially and adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Purchased Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended, or the eligibility of any Purchased Mortgage Loan for FHA Mortgage Insurance, the VA Loan Guaranty, or primary mortgage insurance, as applicable, except where the existence of such physical damage would not be the contractual or legal responsibility of, or result in any liability to, Buyer and would not adversely affect the rights of Buyer with respect to the ownership and administration of the Purchased Assets or the value of the related Mortgage Servicing Rights.

Schedule 1-A-8


(bb)      Origination; Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits; Interest Rate Adjustments.  Each Mortgage Loan was originated by Seller or a Correspondent Seller.  The origination and collection practices used by Seller or Correspondent Seller as originator, each servicer of the Mortgage Loan and Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been in all respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable laws and regulations, and have been in all respects legal and proper.  With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments, all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made.  All Escrow Payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law.  An escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.  No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due Seller or a Correspondent Seller have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note.  All Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note.  Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state, federal and local law has been properly paid and credited.

requirements and the specifications set forth in such Take-out Commitment and the related regulations, rules, requirements and/or handbooks of the applicable Take-out Investor and is eligible for sale to and insurance or guaranty by, respectively the applicable Take-out Investor and applicable insurer.  Each Take-out Commitment is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(qq)      Primary Mortgage Guaranty Insurance.  Each Mortgage Loan is insured as to payment defaults by a policy of primary mortgage guaranty insurance in the amount required where applicable, and by an insurer approved, by the applicable Take-out Investor, if applicable, and all provisions of such primary mortgage guaranty insurance have been and are being complied with, such policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid.  Each Mortgage Loan which is represented to Administrative Agent to have, or to be eligible for, FHA insurance is insured, or eligible to be insured, pursuant to the National Housing Act.  Each Mortgage Loan which is represented by Seller to be guaranteed, or to be eligible for guaranty, by the VA is guaranteed, or eligible to be guaranteed, under the provisions of Chapter 37 of Title 38 of the United States Code.  As to each FHA insurance certificate or each VA guaranty certificate, Seller has complied with applicable provisions of the insurance for guaranty contract and federal statutes and regulations, all premiums or other charges due in connection with such insurance or guarantee have been paid, there has been no act or omission which would or may invalidate any such insurance or guaranty, and the insurance or guaranty is, or when issued, will be, in full force and effect with respect to each Mortgage Loan.  There are no defenses, counterclaims, or rights of setoff affecting the Mortgage Loans or affecting the validity or enforceability of any private mortgage insurance or FHA insurance applicable to the Mortgage Loans or any VA guaranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Schedule 1-A-11


(uu)      Negative Amortization.  None of the Mortgage Notes relating to any of the Mortgage Loans provides for negative amortization.

(vv)      Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loan and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loan, none of the Mortgage Loans are an “A” quality first lien Mortgage Loan that is not eligible for sale to an Agency.

(ww)    Co-op Loan: Valid First Lien.  With respect to each Co-op Loan, the related Mortgage is a valid, enforceable and subsisting first security interest on the related cooperative shares securing the related cooperative note and lease, subject only to (a) liens of the cooperative for unpaid assessments representing the Mortgagor’s pro rata share of the cooperative’s payments for its blanket mortgage, current and future real property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to which like collateral is commonly subject and (b) other matters to which like collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the security interest.  There are no liens against or security interests in the cooperative shares relating to each Co-op Loan (except for unpaid maintenance, assessments and other amounts owed to the related cooperative which individually or in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on such Co-op Loan), which have priority equal to or over Seller’s security interest in such Co-op Shares.

(xx)      Co-op Loan: Compliance with Law.  With respect to each Co-op Loan, the related cooperative corporation that owns title to the related cooperative apartment building is a “cooperative housing corporation” within the meaning of Section 216 of the Internal Revenue Code, and is in material compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws which, if not complied with, could have a material adverse effect on the Mortgaged Property.

(yy)      Co-op Loan: No Pledge.  With respect to each Co-op Loan, there is no prohibition against pledging the shares of the cooperative corporation or assigning the Proprietary Lease. With respect to each Co-op Loan, (i) the term of the related Proprietary Lease is longer than the term of the Co-op Loan, (ii) there is no provision in any Proprietary Lease which requires the Mortgagor to offer for sale the Co-op Shares owned by such Mortgagor first to the Co-op Corporation, (iii) there is no prohibition in any Proprietary Lease against pledging the Co-op Shares or assigning the Proprietary Lease and (iv) the Recognition Agreement is on a form of agreement published by Aztech Document Systems, Inc. as of the date hereof or includes provisions which are no less favorable to the lender than those contained in such agreement.

(zz)      Co-op Loan: Acceleration of Payment.  With respect to each Co-op Loan, each Assignment of Proprietary Lease contains enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization of the material benefits of the security provided thereby.  The Assignment of Proprietary Lease contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Note in the event the Co-op Unit is transferred or sold without the consent of the holder thereof.

(aaa)     Qualified Mortgage.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, on and after January 10, 2014 (or such later date as set forth in the relevant regulations), (i) prior to the origination of each Mortgage Loan, the originator made a reasonable and good faith determination that the Mortgagor had a reasonable ability to repay the loan

Schedule 1-A-12

(bbb)    Aging.  Such Mortgage Loan has not been subject to a Transaction hereunder for more than the applicable Aging Limit.

(ccc)     TRID Compliance.  With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a HELOC) where the Mortgagor’s loan application for the Mortgage Loan was taken on or after October 3, 2015, such Mortgage Loan was originated in compliance with the TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure Rule.

(ddd)    Property Value.  With respect to a GNMA EBO, Seller has delivered to Administrative Agent a BPO Value and valuation date given by a licensed real estate agent or broker in conformity with customary and usual business practices, which includes comparable sales and comparable listings and complies with the criteria set forth in FIRREA for an “appraisal” or an “evaluation”, as applicable, and such other information in further compliance with this Agreement.  The person performing any BPO received no benefit from, and such person’s compensation or flow of business from the Seller were not affected by, the acquisition of the Mortgage Loan by the Seller or any other applicable transferee.

(eee)     Terms.  With respect to HELOCs, the related Mortgagor may request advances up to the Credit Limit within the first (1st) ten (10) years following the date of origination, subject to termination or suspension under the terms of the Credit Line Agreement.

(fff)      Revolving Term.  Each HELOC provides for an initial period (the “Revolving Period”) during which the Mortgagor is required to make monthly payments of interest payable in arrears and requires repayment of the unpaid principal balance thereof over a period following the Revolving Period (the “Repayment Period”) which is not in excess of two hundred forty (240) months. As of the Purchase Date no HELOC was in its Repayment Period.  The Mortgage Interest Rate on each Mortgage Loan adjusts periodically in accordance with the Credit Line Agreement.  On each Interest Rate Adjustment Date the related Seller has made interest rate adjustments on the Mortgage Loan which are in compliance with the related Mortgage, Mortgage Note and Credit Line Agreement and applicable law.

(ggg)    Draws In Compliance With Laws.  Each Draw under the HELOC has been disbursed in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, all state and local licensing requirements.

(hhh)    Enforcement of Remedies.  Each Credit Line Agreement permits the holder to enforce its full remedies, with respect to, among other things, material events of default by the Mortgagor, and to suspend or terminate the right to make additional Draws or reduce the Credit Limit if the value of the related Mortgaged Property declines significantly, the Mortgagor’s

Schedule 1-A-13


financial circumstances materially change, or certain other events occur as described in the Credit Line Agreement.

The Seller makes the following representations and warranties to the Administrative Agent, with respect to Servicer Advances subject to each Transaction, as of the date of this Agreement, the date of any Transaction, and while the Program Agreements are in full force and effect.  For purposes of this Schedule 1-B and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured if and when the Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer adversely affects such Servicer Advances.

(1)        No Liens.  Each Servicer Advances conveyed and pledged on such Purchase Date is owned by the related Seller free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein, and is not subject to any dispute or other adverse claim, except as provided herein.  The Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Servicer Advances and the Collections with respect thereto, is free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein.  The Seller has not and will not prior to the time of the pledge of any such interest to the Administrative Agent have sold, pledged, assigned, transferred or subjected and will not thereafter sell, pledge, assign, transfer or subject to a Lien any of such Servicer Advances or the Collections other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(4)        Compliance with FHA and VA Requirements.  Each Servicer Advance has been made in accordance with the terms of the related FHA requirements or VA requirements, as applicable.

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that Seller hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Seller and in the name of Seller or in its own name, from time to time in Administrative Agents discretion:

(a)       in the name of Seller, or in its own name, or otherwise, to take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any assets purchased by Administrative Agent on behalf of certain Buyers and/or Repledgees under the Fourth Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time) dated September 9, 2020 (the “Assets”) including, without limitation, all Servicer Advances arising under or related to any Asset and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any other assets whenever payable;

(b)       to pay or discharge taxes and liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Assets;

(c)       (i) to direct any party liable for any payment under any Assets to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Administrative Agent or as Administrative Agent shall direct; (ii) to ask or demand for, collect, receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Assets; (iii) to sign and endorse any invoices, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any Assets; (iv) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Assets or any proceeds thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Assets; (v) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against Seller with respect to any Assets; (vi) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in clause (v) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and (vii) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any Assets as fully and completely as though Administrative

Exhibit E-1


Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at Administrative Agent’s option and Seller’s expense, at any time, and from time to time, all acts and things which Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Assets and Administrative Agent’s Liens thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as Seller might do;

(d)       for the purpose carrying out the transfer of servicing with respect to the Mortgage Loans from Seller to a successor servicer appointed by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish such transfer of servicing, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller hereby gives Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of Seller, without assent by Seller, to, in the name of Seller or its own name, or otherwise, prepare and send or cause to be sent “good-bye” letters and Section 404 Notices to all mortgagors under the Mortgage Loans, transferring the servicing of the Mortgage Loans to a successor servicer appointed by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

(e)       for the purpose of delivering any notices of sale to mortgagors or other third parties, including without limitation, those required by law.

Seller hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.

Seller also authorizes Administrative Agent, from time to time, to execute, in connection with any sale, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Assets.

The powers conferred on Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect Administrative Agent’s interests in the Assets and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  Administrative Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Seller for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

TO INDUCE ANY THIRD PARTY TO ACT HEREUNDER, SELLER HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY THIRD PARTY RECEIVING A DULY EXECUTED COPY OR FACSIMILE OF THIS INSTRUMENT MAY ACT HEREUNDER, AND THAT REVOCATION OR TERMINATION HEREOF SHALL BE INEFFECTIVE AS TO SUCH THIRD PARTY UNLESS AND UNTIL ACTUAL NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH REVOCATION OR TERMINATION SHALL HAVE BEEN RECEIVED BY SUCH THIRD PARTY, AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS ASSIGNS, HEREBY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS ANY SUCH THIRD PARTY FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY ARISE AGAINST SUCH THIRD PARTY BY REASON OF SUCH THIRD PARTY HAVING RELIED ON THE PROVISIONS OF THIS INSTRUMENT.
