NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

GlassBridge Enterprises, Inc. (“GlassBridge”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) owns and operates an asset management business and a mortgage servicing business.

The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of GlassBridge are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed herein, these adjustments consist of normal and recurring items. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of full year results. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes are presented in accordance with the requirements for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in our annual Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes presented in accordance with the requirements of Annual Reports on Form 10-K.

The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and entities in which the Company owns or controls fifty percent or more of the voting shares or interest in such entity, and has the right to control. The results of entities disposed of are included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements up to the date of the disposal and, where appropriate, these operations have been reflected as discontinued operations. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation and, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the interim results reported.

The preparation of the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the reporting periods. Despite our intention to establish accurate estimates and use reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ from our estimates.

The December 31, 2022 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2023.

Note 2 — New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 3 —Income (Loss) per Common Share

Basic income per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Unvested restricted stock and treasury shares are excluded from the calculation of weighted average number of common shares outstanding in all cases. Once restricted stock vests, it is included in our common shares outstanding.

Diluted income per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of our stock-based compensation plans, using the “treasury stock” method.

The Company has 1,360 shares of outstanding and exercisable stock options that have been excluded because they would be anti-dilutive. See Note 8 –Stock-Based Compensation for additional information on the stock options.

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth the computation of weighted average basic and diluted income per share (unaudited):

Note 4 — Supplemental Balance Sheet Information

Additional supplemental balance sheet information is provided as follows:

Other current assets were $1.0 million and $0.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively and consist of marketable securities (see Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements).

Other current liabilities were $0.8 million as of September 30, 2023, and include an accrual for a holdback amount of $0.6 million on the purchase price of mortgage service rights as well as insurance and corporate liability accruals of $0.2 million. Other current liabilities were $0.4 million as of December 31, 2022, and include accruals for payroll expense of $0.2 million and insurance and corporate liability accruals of $0.2 million.

Note 5 — Mortgage Servicing Rights

On September 29, 2023, GlassBridge purchased Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSR”) and assumed related obligations from Greenway Mortgage Holding Corporation (“Greenway”). Under the transaction, GlassBridge acquired the MSRs and title to 2,009 fixed rate residential Mortgage Loans with an aggregate value of approximately $435 Million, for a total purchase price of $6,134,680 (with 90% of the purchaser price paid at closing; 5% to be paid two (2) business days after the transfer date (estimated to be February 1, 2024) and 5% to be held for no more than two (2) years pending receipt and satisfactory review of mortgage loan files, data and documentation). The purchase price was based on the purchase price percentage of 1.41% (calculated by multiplying the purchase price percentage by the unpaid principal balance of the underlying Mortgage Loans as of the sale date). The holdback amount of $0.6 million is recorded within the Company’s other current liabilities.

The MSRs include: (a) all rights to service the Mortgage Loans; (b) all rights to receive servicing fees, certain ancillary income, reimbursements or indemnification for servicing the Mortgage Loans, and any payments received in respect of the foregoing and proceeds thereof; (c) the right to collect, hold and disburse escrow payments or other payments with respect to the Mortgage Loans (but not the funds actually collected with respect thereto) and to receive interest income on such amounts to the extent permitted by applicable law and requirements; (d) all accounts, including any custodial accounts or escrow accounts, and other rights to payment related to any of the property described in this paragraph; (e) possession and use of any and all credit files and servicing files or other information pertaining to the Mortgage Loans or pertaining to the past, present or prospective servicing of the Mortgage Loans; (f) to the extent applicable, all rights and benefits relating to the direct solicitation of the related mortgagors for refinance or modification of the Mortgage Loans and attendant right, title and interest in and to the list of such Mortgagors and data relating to their respective Mortgage Loans; and (g) all rights, powers and privileges incident to any of the foregoing.

Prior to the applicable transfer date, but after the sale date, an affiliate of Greenway will continue to service the loans with our subservicer, Valon. During this period, we are conducting a due diligence review of the Mortgage Loans. To effect the purchase and the subsequent transfer, Greenway has made customary representations and warranties, as well as, provided indemnification rights including for the servicer, subservicer or Greenway’s failure to comply applicable requirements and accepted servicing practices relating to the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans or any breach of its representations, warranties or covenants in the Agreement, or any termination of the servicer as servicer for cause by Fannie Mae.

Note 6 — Arrive Investment

Arrive LLC (“Arrive”) is a company that was formed in partnership with Roc Nation with the intent of building a new platform and brand focused on early stage, high growth opportunities. Roc Nation is a full-service entertainment company, inclusive of artist and athlete management, label, publishing, touring, film/TV and new ventures. Arrive seeks to leverage these relationships to invest in proprietary opportunities and provide services including, but not limited to, marketing, promotion or strategic advice for its portfolio investments. The Company holds two separate Arrive investments described below.

	●	Investment in Arrive of $12.5 million and $12.8 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, represents an investment in the Arrive operating company, Arrive I LLC. The Company’s investment entitles the Company to appoint one of five Arrive Board members and gives the Company priority for distributions of current income and investment proceeds. In addition, the Company is entitled to receive between 18% and 20% of all general partner consideration on pooled investment vehicles managed by Arrive, whether characterized as management fees or incentive fees.

	●	Other assets of $0.6 million and $0.5 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, represent an investment in the Arrive Opportunities Fund I, LP, managed by an affiliate of Arrive I LLC.

The Company did not record any unrealized gains or losses during the three months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022 related to these investments. The Company took distributions of $0.3 million from the Arrive operating company, Arrive I LLC, in the form of marketable securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company is not required to contribute additional capital to either of the investments.

Historically, the Company accounted for such investments under the cost method of accounting. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 in the first quarter of 2018 effectively eliminated the cost method of accounting, and the carrying value of this investment is written down, or impaired, to fair value when a decline in value is considered to be other-than-temporary. Our strategic investment in equity securities does not have a readily determinable fair value; therefore, the new guidance was adopted prospectively. As of September 30, 2023, there were no indicators of impairment for this investment. The Company will assess the investment for potential impairment, quarterly.

Note 7 — Debt

Debt and notes payable consists of the following:

Tacora note payable	$	1.9	$	—
GHI LLC note payable		—		3.7
Other liabilities		0.2		0.2
Total long term debt	$	2.1	$	3.9

The Company entered into a Term Loan and Security Agreement (“Tacora Loan Agreement”) with Tacora Capital, LP (“Tacora”), an asset management firm, pursuant to which Tacora lent $2.0 million to the Company on September 25, 2023. The loan requires quarterly payments or accruals (at the Company’s option) of interest, equal to an 8% per annum. If the Company defaults on the loan, the interest rate increases to 11% per annum. The loan, and all accrued and unpaid interest, is due in full seven years following its issuance. The Company has the right to prepay the loan in increments of at least $100,000 at any time after the Preferred Stock (see Note 10 – Redeemable Preferred Stock and Restricted Stock Units) has been redeemed. Any amounts repaid by the Company to Tacora may not be re-borrowed. The Company incurred $0.1 million of issuance costs related to the loan, which is recognized as a reduction of the loan proceeds and amortized over the term of the loan.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Tacora Loan Agreement.

Table of Contents

The Company entered into a Term Loan and Security Agreement (“GHI Loan Agreement”) with Gazellek Holdings I, LLC (“GHI LLC”), pursuant to which GHI LLC lent $3.5 million to the Company on August 6, 2021. The GHI Loan Agreement was paid in full subsequent to the closing of the Tacora Loan Agreement on September 25, 2023..

Scheduled maturities of the Company’s long-term debt, as they exist as of September 30, 2023, in each of the next five fiscal years and thereafter are as follows:

Note 8 — Stock-Based Compensation

We have stock-based compensation awards consisting of stock options under the 2011 Incentive Plan, which is described in detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, there are no remaining shares available for grant under the 2011 Incentive Plan. No further shares were available for grant under any other stock incentive plan. The Company did not have any stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Stock Options

The following table summarizes our stock option activity:

Summary of Stock Option Activity

	Stock Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding December 31, 2022		1,360	$	106.00
Outstanding September 30, 2023		1,360	$	106.00
Exercisable as of September 30, 2023		1,360	$	106.00

As of September 30, 2023, options to purchase 1,360 shares are outstanding and exercisable, and the aggregate intrinsic value of all outstanding stock options was $0.0 million. No options were granted or exercised during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, there is no unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options.

Note 9 — Income Taxes

For interim income tax reporting, we are required to estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to year-to-date pre-tax income (loss), excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax of $0.0 million on a loss of $1.1 million and on a loss of $0.8 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax of $0.0 million on a loss of $3.3 million and on a loss of $2.3 million, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a valuation allowance on various deferred tax assets.

The Tacora and other transactions during the quarter did not create any limitations on the utilization of tax loss carryovers under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

We file income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions that are subject to review by various U.S and state taxing authorities. Our U.S. federal income tax returns for 2020 to present, and certain state returns from 2019 to present, are open to examination.

Note 10 — Redeemable Preferred Stock and Restricted Stock Units

On September 25, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Tacora. Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Company sold to Tacora 13,725 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”), 7,500 Series 1 restricted stock units (the “Series 1 RSUs”), and 15,000 Series 2 restricted stock units (the “Series 2 RSUs,” and together with the Series 1 RSUs, the “RSUs”). The Preferred Stock was purchased for $1,000 per share, representing an aggregate sum of $13.7 million. The RSUs were purchased for $3.33 per unit, representing an aggregate sum of $0.1 million. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Tacora also may purchase up to an additional 32,775 shares of Preferred Stock for aggregate consideration of $32.8 million and up to an additional 17,500 Series 1 RSUs and 35,000 Series 2 RSUs, for aggregate consideration of $0.1 million. The additional shares of Preferred Stock and the RSUs will be purchased and issued from time to time, proportionally, in connection with and as the Company invests in certain approved transactions (as established in the Stock Purchase Agreement).

From the Closing Date until 48 months after all shares of Preferred Stock issuable to Tacora under the Stock Purchase Agreement have been issued, the Preferred Stock is entitled to receive cumulative dividend distributions at a rate of 8% per annum. Thereafter, the dividend rate increases to 15.5% per annum. The holders of the Preferred Stock have no voting rights and the Preferred Stock is not convertible into Common Stock.

Mandatory Redemption of the Preferred Stock and RSUs

Each share of Preferred Stock is redeemable for $1,000 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. The Company may redeem the Preferred Stock in part or in full at any time and from time to time; provided that the Company must redeem all of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date.

Beginning on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, Tacora has the right to surrender the Series 1 RSUs to the Company for a cash payment in an amount equal to the product of (i) the then fair market value of a share of the Common Stock minus $164.95 (the estimated fair market value of a share of the Common Stock on the Closing Date) multiplied by (ii) the number of Series 1 RSUs then being surrendered to the Company. Tacora has a similar right to surrender the Series 2 RSUs beginning on the sixth anniversary of Closing Date for a cash payment calculated in the same way. Neither the Company nor Tacora possess the right to deliver or demand that the RSUs be settled in Common Stock. The RSUs do not provide Tacora with voting rights or rights to dividend equivalent payments.

The Company concluded the Preferred Stock and RSUs are mandatorily redeemable financial instruments in accordance with ASC 480 and, as such, must be classified as a liability, with preferred annual returns and any changes in redemption value being accrued and recorded as interest expense. The Company measured each of these liabilities at fair value on the Closing Date. As of September 30, 2023, the Company marked each of these financial instruments to the respective redemption value of $13.7 million for the preferred stock and $0.1 million for the RSUs, which is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company incurred $0.6 million of deferred issuance costs in relation to the issuance of the Preferred Stock, which is presented net of the Preferred Stock liability and will be amortized over the estimated six-year term of the Preferred Stock. The Company did not incur material issuance costs related to the RSUs. As of September 30, 2023, the RSUs do not have any redemption value and the maximum amount payable for the preferred stock is $13.7 million.

Treasury Stock

On September 25, 2023, the Company redeemed from certain stockholders controlled by George Hall, a related party, a total of 7,578 shares of Common Stock of the Company for aggregate consideration of $1.3 million.

On November 14, 2016, our Board authorized a share repurchase program under which we may repurchase up to 2,500 shares of common stock, from time to time, using a variety of methods, which may include open market transactions and privately negotiated transactions.

The Company did not purchase any shares during the three months ended September 30, 2023 under the share repurchase program. Since the November 14, 2016 authorization, we have repurchased 780 shares of common stock for $0.3 million, and, as of September 30, 2023, we had remaining authorization to repurchase 1,720 additional shares.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has 2,927 shares of treasury stock, acquired at an average price of $8,496.47 per share.

Stock Warrants

In connection with the GHI Loan Agreement, the Company issued to GHI LLC, for $120,000, a Common Stock Purchase Warrant entitling GHI LLC to purchase 4.8% of GLAE’s outstanding common stock, at the price of $0.01 per share, and a second Common Stock Purchase Warrant entitling GHI LLC to purchase 5.2% of GLAE’s outstanding common stock, at the price of $169.62 per share. The second warrant is automatically canceled if the Company consummates a Sale Transaction that is sourced other than by GHI LLC or its affiliates. A “Sale Transaction” is a merger, consolidation, combination or similar transaction (in one or a series of related transactions), such that the beneficial owners of shares of Company common stock immediately prior to the transaction or transactions will, immediately after such transaction or transactions, beneficially own less than a majority of the shares of common stock or outstanding equity of the surviving corporation (on a fully diluted basis). Each warrant expires August 2, 2026, is exercisable net of proceeds received; entitles its holder to receive certain distributions on the Company’s common stock, as if the warrant had been exercised; and bears registration rights respecting the underlying common stock. The first warrant purports to give its holder voting rights, as if the warrant had been exercised. The sale was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Sec. 4(a)(2), as not involving any public offering, because no general solicitation was involved, and GHI LLC is an accredited professional investor, which agreed to accept restricted securities. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the second Common Stock Purchase Warrant entitling GHI LLC to purchase 5.2% of GLAE’s outstanding common stock was cancelled. See Note 10 – Redeemable Preferred Stock and Restricted Stock Units for more information on the Stock Purchase Agreement.

Note 12 — Segment Information

On September 29, 2023, GlassBridge purchased MSRs and assumed related obligations from Greenway. Under the transaction, GlassBridge acquired the MSRs and title to 2,009 fixed rate residential Mortgage Loans with an aggregate value of approximately $435 Million, for a total purchase price of $6.1 million. The Company intends to create a separate reportable segment from the asset management business.

We evaluate segment performance based on revenue and operating loss. The operating loss reported in our segments excludes corporate and other unallocated amounts. Although such amounts are excluded from the business segment results, they are included in reported consolidated results. The corporate and unallocated operating loss includes costs that are not allocated to the business segments in management’s evaluation of segment performance, such as litigation settlement expense, corporate expense and other expenses.

Note 13 — Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies

Plaintiff Cypress Holdings, III L.P. (“Cypress”) filed an action against the Company in New York Supreme Court, which was removed to the United States District Court, Southern District of New York, on February 14, 2022, captioned Cypress Holdings, III L.P. v. Sport-BLX, Inc. et al., 1:22-cv-01243-LGS (S.D.N.Y.). In its Second Amended Complaint, Cypress purports to assert claims against SportBLX, Mr. Hall, and Mr. De Perio for securities fraud and related issues and seeks compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees, in connection with solicitations of investments in SportBLX. Cypress also purports to allege that the Company is liable for unjust enrichment, tortious interference with contract, aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty and minority shareholder oppression. Cypress also purports to assert claims against Messrs. Strauss and Ruchalski for breach of fiduciary duty and corporate waste, as well as additional claims against Clinton Group Inc., Cesar Baez, Christopher Johnson, and Sport-BLX Securities, Inc. arising from solicitations of investments in SportBLX.

The Company along with Messrs. Strauss and Ruchalski, intend to defend themselves vigorously. As of December 31, 2021, GlassBridge Enterprises, Inc. sold all of its interest in SportBLX and SportBLX ceased to be a subsidiary.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company believes that an outcome resulting in a loss is remote and does not have any accruals related to the matter.

Jimmie D. Dean and Evelyn Dean filed an action against the Company and dozens of other defendants in the 12th Judicial Circuit Court, St. Clair County Illinois (23 LA 0395) asserting claims related to asbestos. Plaintiff alleged that the Company negligently constructed and/or maintained its premises and that Plaintiff was wrongfully exposed to asbestos-containing products while on its premises. Plaintiff further alleged that such activity was a direct and proximate cause of his development and contraction of an asbestos-related disease, including Lung Cancer. Damages alleged are in excess of $50,000.

Table of Contents

The claim was being made against the Company due to its acquisition of certain assets of Memorex International Inc. in 2006. Such acquisition specifically excluded any undisclosed and contingent liabilities including any litigation that was commenced after closing, and on September 11, 2023, the Company was dismissed as a defendant to the action.

Indemnification Obligations

In the normal course of business, we periodically enter into agreements that incorporate general indemnification language. Performance under these indemnities would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a supportable third-party claim. There has historically been no material losses related to such indemnifications. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, estimated liability amounts associated with such indemnifications were not material.

Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or the exit price in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A three-level hierarchy is used for fair value measurements based upon the observability of the inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Level 1 measurements consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 measurements include quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 measurements include significant unobservable inputs. A financial instrument’s level within the hierarchy is based on the highest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis, including cash and cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities.

The following outlines the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively (in millions):

	Hierarchy	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022

Marketable securities	Level 1	$	1.0	$	—
Mortgage servicing rights (1)	Level 3	$	6.1	$	—

(1)

The unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and cost to service, which were 12.5%, 3.88%, and $81.00 per year per loan, respectively, as of September 30, 2023. The high and low end of the range of unobservable inputs used in the valuation did not result in a significant change to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) fall under Level 3 measurements as the fair value of the MSRs is calculated using third-party valuations. The key assumptions, which are generally unobservable inputs, used in the valuation of the MSRs include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and cost to service.

The following table represents the reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance for the Level 3 recurring fair value measurements, with gains and losses from the changes in fair value reflected in financial services revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations (in millions):

Under the transaction, GlassBridge acquired the MSRs and title to 2,009 fixed rate residential Mortgage Loans with an aggregate value of approximately $435 Million, for a total purchase price of $6,134,680 (with 90% of the purchaser price paid at closing; 5% to be paid two (2) business days after the transfer date (estimated to be February 1, 2024) and 5% to be held for no more than two (2) years pending receipt and satisfactory review of mortgage loan files, data and documentation). The purchase price was based on the purchase price percentage of 1.41% (calculated by multiplying the purchase price percentage by the unpaid principal balance of the underlying Mortgage Loans as of the sale date). See Note 5 – Mortgage Servicing Rights for more information.

We have various resources available to us for purposes of managing liquidity and capital needs. Our primary sources of liquidity include our cash and cash equivalents. Our primary liquidity needs relate to funding our operations.

We had $3.1 million cash and cash equivalents on hand as of September 30, 2023.

We expect that our cash, in addition to asset monetization, will provide liquidity sufficient to meet our needs for our operations and our obligations. We also plan to raise additional capital if necessary, although no assurance can be made that we will be able to secure such financing, if needed, on favorable terms or at all.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2023, the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive Officer, Daniel Strauss, and the Chief Financial Officer, Francis Ruchalski, have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023, based on the guidelines established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013). Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, management concluded there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) 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.

See Note 13 - Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies in our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 herein for further information regarding our legal proceedings.

The Company is subject to various lawsuits, claims and other legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of conducting business (including litigation relating to our legacy businesses and discontinued operations). All such matters involve uncertainty and, accordingly, outcomes that cannot be predicted with assurance. As of September 30, 2023, we are unable to estimate with certainty the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact that we may incur with respect to these matters. It is reasonably possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, could materially affect our financial condition, results of the operations and cash flows. Similarly, the Company is the plaintiff in a number of matters in the United States and elsewhere where the potential outcomes could be materially beneficial to the Company. These outcomes are also uncertain.

PROCEDURES; ITEMS TO BE DELIVERED

Agreement to Pay Reference Spread; Recapture.

Subject to, and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with respect to each MSR Package, on the related Closing Date, the Payee will make the applicable Upfront Payment to Payor pursuant to the schedule set forth in the Funding Schedule, and Payor will agree to make payments to the Payee, in each case, in accordance with Section 3.03. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the obligation of Payor to make such payments described in Section 3.03, for non-tax purposes (i) shall constitute an unsecured corporate obligation of Payor only and (ii) shall not represent a legal, beneficial or security interest in the Servicer, the Servicing Agreement, the Mortgage Servicing Rights, the Servicing Spread or the Servicing Spread Collections. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, it is the intention of the Parties hereto that Payor’s allocation hereunder from time to time of Mortgage Servicing Rights be treated for all U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes as the sale by Payor and the purchase by Payee of the Reference Spread which does not include any amounts needed by the Payor to meet its servicing obligations.

In the event a Mortgage Loan is refinanced by the Servicer or Subservicer, the Payor agrees to incorporate such refinanced mortgage loan or, if applicable, another substantially similar mortgage loan (each such Mortgage Loan, a “Recaptured Mortgage Loan”) in its calculation and payment of the Reference Spread. Servicer shall not solicit any mortgagor under any Mortgage Loan to refinance any Mortgage Loan, and shall not provide information concerning any Mortgage Loan to anyone other than the Subservicer to facilitate refinancing of any Mortgage Loan. Servicer shall pass through to Payee any make-whole payments received by Servicer from Subservicer in respect of any refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that does not become a Recaptured Mortgage Loan.

In the event a Mortgage Servicing Right with respect to a Mortgage Loan is repurchased by the Payor or a prior owner thereof, the Payor shall remit the applicable proceeds actually received from such payor or prior owner, as applicable, with respect to such Mortgage Servicing Right net of (i) any deboarding fees and other amounts due to the Subservicer and (ii) the Payor’s documented reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with such repurchase, including reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in pursuing repurchase remedies under any MSR Purchase Agreement (the “MSR Repurchase Price”) to the Distribution Account for distribution on the next Distribution Date. The Servicer shall pursue commercially reasonable remedies against any prior owner available for breach under any MSR Purchase Agreement, as directed by and at the cost of the Payee. The Servicer shall notify the Payee of any breaches by the Loan Seller under any MSR Purchase Agreement of which it becomes aware.

Liquidity Amount.

On the date that is thirty (30) Business Days prior to the Liquidity Confirmation Date, the Payor shall notify the Payee of the amount required to comply with the Agency liquidity requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans (calculated based on the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loans) (the “Liquidity Amount”). On the date that is ten (10) Business Days prior to the Liquidity Confirmation Date, Payee shall deposit into the Liquidity Account the Liquidity Amount. If the Payee fails to deposit the Liquidity Amount into the Liquidity Account within five (5) Business Days prior to the Liquidity Confirmation Date, the Servicer shall deduct the Liquidity Amount from the amount otherwise payable to the Payee hereunder (and, if applicable, the TES Purchaser under the TESPA). If such amounts are insufficient, the Servicer, in its sole absolute discretion, shall be entitled to borrow the Liquidity Amount from any third-party lender for purpose of satisfying the Agency Requirements with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and the Payee (i) shall cooperate in all respects with the Payor and the Servicer to obtain such financing, (ii) shall grant Payor’s absolute right to grant security interest in the Mortgage Servicing Rights to secured such loan and (iii) shall be required to pay all such loan amount to achieve release of such security interest granted to a lender. To the extent the amount deposited in the Liquidity Account exceeds the Liquidity Amount as of the Liquidity Confirmation Date (the “Quarterly Excess Funds”), the Payor shall cause the Servicer to promptly remit to the Payee the applicable Quarterly Excess Funds, so that the remaining balance of the Liquidity Account is equal to the Liquidity Amount. From time to time, if the Agency liquidity requirements change, the Payor shall promptly notify the Payee, and the Payee shall remit such supplemental Liquidity Amounts to the Payor for deposit to the Liquidity Account in a timely manner to satisfy such Agency liquidity requirements, to the extent the Liquidity Amounts already on deposit with respect to the Mortgage Loans are insufficient for the Servicer to satisfy such Agency requirements.

In addition, the Payor agrees to pay to the Payee the related Reference Spread for any related Mortgage Loan that becomes a Recaptured Mortgage Loan as further described in Section 2.01(b).

To the extent the Payee exercises a Convenience Appointment, upon the transfer of ownership of the related Mortgage Servicing Rights to the Payee’s designee or the date the Payor causes the Servicer to repurchase the related True Excess Spread, as applicable, the Payor shall, promptly following receipt of related MSR Successor Proceeds:

distribute such MSR Successor Proceeds to the Servicer and TES Purchaser as follows: first, to the reimbursement of Payee for any unreimbursed Advances, including to the repayment of any Advance financing attributable to financed and previously unreimbursed Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans with respect to which MSR Successor Proceeds were received, second, to the Servicer, all unpaid Program Fees, all accrued and unpaid Cost of Servicing and its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with such sale, third, to the payment of any deboarding fees and other amounts due to the applicable Subservicer(s), and fourth, to the TES Purchaser, all remaining MSR Successor Proceeds that are not duplicative of the Reference MSR Successor Amount; and

remit the applicable Reference MSR Successor Amount to the Payee; provided further, (i) Payee acknowledges and agrees that the rights to any Reference Spread related to any Mortgage Servicing Rights related to such Convenience Appointment shall be extinguished and (ii) thereafter, the Payor shall not further obligation to remit the Payee any further amounts related to the related Reference Spread (other than to remit any funds properly due to Payee that are received or retained by Payor in error); provided, however, that Payor shall cause Servicer to remit to Payee an amount equal to all remaining funds Payee contributed to the Liquidity Account which were unreimbursed as of the related transfer date.

Payor shall cause all funds received by Payor, Servicer, or any Subservicer with respect to Advances, indemnity amounts, and other amounts funded by Payee prior to the exercise of a Convenience Appointment or other transfer of Mortgage Servicing Rights, which are not reimbursed or otherwise remitted to Payee as set forth in Section 3.01(b), to be reimbursed to Payee upon the transfer of the Mortgage Servicing Rights to the extent received from the successor servicer, or, with respect to Advance reimbursements, within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt thereof by Payor, Servicer or any Subservicer, as applicable.

Payments by Payee; Reference Capital Payments; Adjustments.

Payments shall be made by Payee to Payor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Payor.

If, subsequent to the payment of any Upfront Payment or the payment of any other amounts due hereunder to either party, the outstanding principal balance of any related Mortgage Loan or any other amount is found to be in error, or if for any reason any such Upfront Payment or other amount is found to be in error, the party benefiting from the error shall pay an amount sufficient to correct and reconcile such Upfront Payment or other amount and shall provide a reconciliation statement and other such documentation to reasonably satisfy the other party concerning the accuracy of such reconciliation. Such amounts shall be paid by the proper party within ten (10) Business Days from receipt of satisfactory written verification of amounts due.

On or after the date hereof, the Payor may deliver Reference Capital Demand Notices to the Payee, in each case in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 3.02. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Reference Capital Demand Notice” shall mean a written notice requiring the payment of capital to the Payor, which notice shall identify the amount of capital determined by the Payor to be appropriate (i) to fund outstanding Advances, including the repayment of any Advance financing, related to the Mortgage Loans with respect to which the Reference Spread is calculated pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) to pre-fund any Advances which are required to be advanced pursuant to the Servicing Agreement or the Subservicing Agreement; (iii) to fund commercially-reasonable and industry-standard amounts due under any Servicing Agreement related to the preservation and protection of the mortgaged properties or otherwise related to the Mortgage Loans with respect to which the Reference Spread is calculated pursuant to this Agreement, (iv) to fund the applicable Upfront Payment in connection with acquiring the right to receive payment of additional Reference Spreads to be subject to this Agreement as agreed by the Payee, (v) to pay indemnity obligations of Payee under this Agreement, (vi) if applicable, to fulfil any obligations under any Advance Facility, any other financing related to any Advance Facility, including but not limited to any indemnity obligations and satisfy any margin calls, (vii) to fund Pre-Bid Deposits, (vii) to fund amounts due under an MSR Purchase Agreement executed in accordance with Section 11.01 and (viii) to fund any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Payor in identifying, evaluating, developing, negotiating, documenting, structuring, financing and refinancing any Investment Opportunities. For the avoidance of doubt, the form of the Reference Capital Demand Notice for the payment of monthly Cost of Servicing may take the form of a simple invoice from Payor to Payee for the amount of Cost of Servicing and such shall constitute a Reference Capital Demand Notice.

With respect to each Reference Capital Demand Notice, the Payee shall make Reference Capital Payments to the Payor within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of such Reference Capital Demand Notice (or, with the Payee’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, such earlier date as is reasonably necessary in connection with causing additional Reference Spreads to be subject to this Agreement) (the “Reference Capital Demand Date”). The Payor, by prompt notice by e-mail or as otherwise permitted under this Agreement, may postpone the Reference Capital Demand Date one or more times for any reason to a specific date, or to a future permitted date to be confirmed on five (5) Business Days’ notice. The Payor shall cancel a Reference Capital Demand Notice and provide prompt written notice of such cancellation to the Payee if the relevant Reference Capital Payment is no longer required.

On each Reference Capital Demand Date, the Payee shall deposit the amount specified by the Payor in the applicable Reference Capital Demand Notice. Payment of capital shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts specified in the Reference Capital Demand Notice.

Neither the Payor nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to make any Reference Capital Payments owed by Payee.

Payor shall provide notice to Payee of any Advances which are required to be advanced pursuant to the Servicing Agreement (the “Required Advances”) The Payee shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such notice, deposit an amount equal to the Required Advances into the Distribution Account. The Payee shall be entitled to reimbursement for such Required Advances to the same extent and in the same manner in which the Subservicer would be entitled to reimbursement for such Advances pursuant to the terms of the Subservicing Agreement and the Subservicer Acknowledgment, including but not limited to the right to withdraw funds from the Distribution Account, to the extent of funds received which Servicer has determined constitute reimbursements of such Advances.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Payee shall have the right to withhold from any Reference Capital Demand Notice any amounts due to Payee pursuant to Section 10.02 hereunder. Payor will cause Servicer to remit to Payee an amount equal to any and all funds previously remitted by Payee in respect of any Advances that were subsequently recovered by Servicer as reimbursement from an Agency or any other source, including the related Mortgagor, liquidation proceeds or insurance proceeds, provided however that the Payee acknowledges and agrees that amounts otherwise reimbursable to the Servicer for any outstanding Advances will be first netted from Distributable Reference Proceeds and, to the extent Distributable Reference Proceeds are insufficient to fully reimburse the Servicer for any outstanding Advance and/or to pre-fund any required Advance to be made, the Payee shall remit the applicable Reference Capital Payment as described in the related Reference Capital Demand Notice seeking contribution for such outstanding Advances.

Payments by Payor.

Payments shall be made by Payor to Payee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Payee.

Distributable Reference Proceeds shall be distributed to the Payee on each Distribution Date.

In the event Payee desires to direct a Convenience Appointment, it shall provide the Payor with written notice thereof.

Subject in all respects to the requirements of the Agency Agreements, at any time (i) following the occurrence of any Change of Control, (ii) following either a breach by Seller of this Agreement or the Servicer of the Servicing Agreement which materially and adversely affects the value of the Reference Spread or the True Excess Spread and the failure of the Seller or Servicer as applicable to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after notice thereof (subject to an additional fifteen (15) day period if the Servicer is diligently pursuing such cure), (iii) in the event that the Servicer is terminated by the Agency as Agency seller/servicer or as servicer of a material portion of the Mortgage Servicing Rights, (iv) or any failure by the Servicer to comply with the Agency Eligibility Requirements, or (v) following the occurrence of a Servicer Material Adverse Change or a Servicer Insolvency Event, the Payee shall have the right (the “Servicer Appointment Right For Cause”) to direct the Servicer to transfer the ownership of the Mortgage Servicing Rights to the Payee’s designee. In such event, the Seller and the Servicer shall cooperate with the Payee and shall endeavor in good faith using commercially reasonable efforts (a) to seek Agency approval of the replacement servicer selected by the Payee and (b) to cause the transfer of servicing to the replacement servicer selected by the Payee and approved by the Agency; subject to payment to Servicer from Payee, on or before the related transfer of servicing, of (i) any deboarding fees and other amounts which are due to the applicable Subservicer(s) pursuant to the applicable Subservicing Agreement with related Subservicer(s) and (ii) reimbursement of any Advances disbursed by Servicer or Subservicer and not reimbursed to such applicable party, including to the repayment of any Advance Facilities related to any such Advances.

In case the Servicer is terminated as Agency seller/servicer, Payee shall have the right to retain Valon as Subservicer but shall not have the right to transfer the Mortgage Servicing Rights to Valon without Valon’s consent.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in any TESPA, (i) if the Payee exercises any rights in this Agreement and/or (ii) if the Payee directs or instructs the Payor (or directs or instructs the Payor to cause any Affiliate of the Payor (including the Servicer)) to perform any action under this Agreement (including but not limited to exercising any Servicer Appointment Right), then, in each case, each TES Purchaser, including all members of the applicable TES Purchaser, shall be conclusively deemed to have consented to the same without condition and without the need for further action.

the Servicer’s, Payor’s or Subservicer’s failure to comply following the applicable Closing Date with Applicable Requirements and Accepted Servicing Practices relating to the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans or any breach of its representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, or any termination of the Servicer as servicer for cause by the Agency;

to the extent of amounts received by the Servicer or Subservicer in respect of such prior servicing claims under the MSR Purchase Agreement, any servicing act or omission of any prior servicing relating to any Mortgage Loan (including, remitting any indemnity amounts received from the Loan Seller pursuant to MSR Purchase Agreement in connection with any breaches or repurchase or repurchase of Mortgage Loans, in each case, to the extent such Losses relate to the Reference Spread); or

Litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions or decrees, the basis for which occurred after the Agreement Date, resulting from any of the items described in Section 10.01(a) and (b) directly above;

provided, however, that the applicable Payee Indemnitee has taken all commercially reasonable and appropriate actions within its reasonable control to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses as reasonably requested by Payor, which such failure of mitigation shall not relieve Payor of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.01 but may affect the amount of such obligation; and provided further, that any Losses incurred by the Payee Indemnitee pursuant to any attempt to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses shall be reimbursed by Payor as part of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.01. For the avoidance of doubt, Losses under this Section 10.01 shall include the fair value of any Reference Spread associated with any Mortgage Servicing Rights as to which the Servicer resigns without the consent of the related TES Purchaser or is terminated by the related Agency pursuant to a Termination With Cause. Payee shall notify Payor promptly after receiving written notice of the assertion of any litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions, decrees or any third party claims subject to indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Payee Third Party Claim”). Upon receipt of such notice of a Payee Third Party Claim, Payor shall have the right to assume the defense of such Payee Third Party Claim using counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Payee Indemnitee, but may not enter into any settlement which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Payee without the prior written consent of the applicable Payee Indemnitee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. A Payee Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel and to otherwise separately defend itself at its own expense but shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Payee Third Party Claim which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Payor without the prior written consent of Payor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any exercise of such rights by a Payee Indemnitee shall not relieve Payor of its obligations and liabilities under this Section 10.01 or any other provision of this Agreement. With respect to any Payee Third Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Agreement, the applicable Payee Indemnitee shall be required to cooperate in good faith with Payor to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Payee Third Party Claim. The indemnification provided by the Payor herein shall be with respect to Losses involving third-parties and Losses between the Payee and Payor. In the event Payor fails to remit any amounts due hereunder, Payee shall be entitled to recoupment of such amounts, and may withhold such amounts from any amounts otherwise owed to the Payor hereunder.

Indemnification by Payee.

Payee shall indemnify, defend and hold Payor, its Affiliates (including Servicer) and its and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, representatives and advisors (the “Payor Indemnitees”) harmless from and shall reimburse the applicable Payor Indemnitee for any Losses suffered or incurred by any Payor Indemnitee which result from:

any material breach of a representation or warranty by Payee, or non-fulfillment of any covenant or obligation of Payee contained in this Agreement;

any mandatory repurchase by Payor of Mortgage Loans relating to third party originated Mortgage Servicing Rights if such repurchase arises from any origination related breach or any act or omission of a prior servicer (not including any Affiliate of the Payor), taking into account any recovery by the Payor from the originator or prior servicer, as well as the value of such repurchased Mortgage Loans; provided that the Payor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce any indemnity or repurchase claims against such third party originator, servicer and/or seller, as applicable;

any matter arising out of or in connection with Payor’s performance under this Agreement, except to the extent the Payor is obligated to indemnify the Payee pursuant to Section 10.01;

the Payor’s and Servicer’s compliance with a written directive or instructions of the Payee pursuant to Section 7.13;

any matter arising out of or in connection with the execution or performance of the Servicer under an MSR Purchase Agreement except for any matter due to the Servicer’s breach of any of its obligations under such MSR Purchase Agreement that is not associated with a breach by TES Purchaser or Payee;

any matter arising out of or in connection with any Funding Default;

any matter arising out of or in connection with an act or omission of a prior owner, a prior servicer or an originator of the Mortgage Loans not covered by Section 10.2(b), taking into account any recovery by the Payor from such prior owner, servicer or originator; provided that the Payor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce any reimbursement, indemnity or other claims against such third party prior owner, originator, servicer and/or seller, as applicable;

any matter arising out of or in connection with any action or inaction by Valon, as Subservicer, including but not limited to compliance with Applicable Requirements and Accepted Servicing Practices and relating to the subservicing of the related Mortgage Loans, other than any action or inaction taken by Subservicer at the direction of Servicer or which results from the negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of the Servicer that is not associated with a breach by TES Purchaser or Payee;

any matter arising out of or in connection with any MSR Package and the amount of any judgment or settlement paid in connection therewith, including any costs incurred in connection with enforcing rights related to the MSR Package or enforcement of Payor’s rights against the Payee; or

litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions or decrees, the basis for which occurred after the Agreement Date, resulting from any of the items described in Section 10.02(a)-(i) directly above;

provided, however, that the applicable Payor Indemnitee has taken all commercially reasonable and appropriate actions within its reasonable control to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses as reasonably requested by Payee, which such failure of mitigation shall not relieve Payee of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.02 but may affect the amount of such obligation; and provided further, that any Losses reasonably incurred by the Payor Indemnitee pursuant to any attempt to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses shall be reimbursed by Payee as part of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.02. Payor shall notify Payee promptly after receiving written notice of the assertion of any litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions, decrees or any third party claims subject to indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Payor Third Party Claim”). Upon receipt of such notice of a Payor Third Party Claim, Payee shall have the right to assume the defense of such Payor Third Party Claim using counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Payor Indemnitee, but may not enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of Payee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. A Payor Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel and to otherwise separately defend itself but shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Payor Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Payee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any exercise of such rights by a Payor Indemnitee shall not relieve Payee of its obligations and liabilities under this Section 10.02 or any other provision of this Agreement. With respect to any Payor Third Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Agreement, the applicable Payor Indemnitee shall be required to cooperate in good faith with Payee to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Payor Third Party Claim. The indemnification provided by the Payee herein shall be with respect to Losses involving third-parties and Losses between the Payee and Payor.

INVESTMENTS

Investment Opportunities.

The Payee or its Affiliate may seek to source, price and negotiate mortgage servicing rights purchase opportunities (each an “Investment Opportunity”) to become subject to the terms of this Agreement and the TESPA. Upon identifying an Investment Opportunity, the Payee shall notify the Payor of such opportunity and provide the Payor with all related loan level analysis, due diligence, associated costs and expenses and any other transaction terms or information as the Payor may reasonably request (such information, the “MSR Diligence”) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the related bid due date or as otherwise reasonably agreed between Payor and Payee. The Payor shall review the related MSR Diligence and may, in its reasonable discretion, provide its consent in writing to the Payee to proceed with such Investment Opportunity. Upon providing its consent, Payor shall work in good faith with Payee to submit a bid with respect to the related mortgage servicing rights; provided, however, prior to submitting a bid, the Payor shall have received all required Pre-Bid Deposits and other Reference Capital Payments that are owing from the Payee. If the Payor’s bid is successful, Payor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate and enter into an MSR Purchase Agreement to acquire the related mortgage servicing rights with proceeds from the related Upfront Payment as set forth in the related MSR Package. All reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Payor, the Servicer or any of their Affiliates (which shall not include, for the avoidance of doubt, any costs of due diligence) in connection with the negotiation and entry into an MSR Purchase Agreement and transfer of the related MSR Package shall be payable by the Payee. In the event a Funding Default has occurred and is continuing after notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure, Payor may, in its sole discretion proceed with the acquisition of such mortgage servicing rights for its own portfolio.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or in any other agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any accrued and unpaid Base Servicing Fee and the Base Servicing Fee then due for the immediately preceding Collection Period shall be paid (or retained) prior to the payment of any other amounts set forth in this Section.

If MSR Successor Proceeds are received in connection with a transfer of the Mortgage Servicing Rights or a portion thereof, amounts in the Distribution Account attributable to MSR Successor Proceeds shall be distributed, as applicable, to Seller and Purchaser as follows: first, to the payment of any deboarding fees and other amounts due to the applicable Subservicer(s) (except in the case of a Termination With Cause), second, to the reimbursement of any unpaid Advances, including to the repayment of any Advance Facility, third, to the Seller, all accrued and unpaid Base Servicing Fees and, unless the transfer related to a Termination With Cause, Seller’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with such sale, and fourth, to Purchaser, all remaining MSR Successor Proceeds.

Section 3.05 Payment to Seller of Base Servicing Fee and Accrued and Unpaid Base Servicing Fee.

Seller shall be entitled to retain the Base Servicing Fee and any accrued and unpaid Base Servicing Fee only to the extent funds are available therefor from the Servicing Spread Collections in accordance with Section 3.04. Under no circumstances shall Purchaser be liable to Seller for payment of the Base Servicing Fee. Seller shall at all times retain for its benefit the Base Servicing Fee, and shall not pay, set-over, pledge or encumber for the benefit of any third party, the Base Servicing Fee. The Seller shall be responsible for the costs and expenses relating to the Agency curtailments relating to the Seller conduct following the Closing Date and shall pay such costs and expenses (including any payments to the Subservicer) out of its Base Servicing Fee or otherwise from the Seller’s own funds, to the extent such curtailment was caused by the Seller’s failure to perform in accordance with the Servicing Contract. In no event shall the True Excess Spread be reduced by any amount due to the Subservicer.

Section 3.06 Intent and Characterization.

(a) Seller and Purchaser intend that the sale of the True Excess Spread pursuant to this Agreement and the related MSR Package Confirmation constitutes a valid true sale of the applicable portion of the True Excess Spread from Seller to Purchaser, conveying all rights and interests free and clear of any Lien other than Permitted Liens, subject and subordinate in all respects to the right, title and interest of the Agency, as set forth in the Agency Agreements.

(b) In the event (but only in the event) that the conveyance of the True Excess Spread is characterized by a court or Governmental Authority as security for a loan rather than a sale, Seller will be deemed to have granted to Purchaser, and Seller hereby grants to Purchaser, a valid and continuing first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the True Excess Spread and all proceeds and products thereof as security for a loan in an amount equal to the applicable Purchase Price.

(c) With respect to each MSR Package, the Seller and the Purchaser intend and agree to treat and report the sale of the True Excess Spread as a sale under Section 1001 of the Code by the Seller and purchase by the Purchaser of a “stripped coupon” within the meaning of Section 1286(d)(3) of the Code and in accordance with Revenue Ruling 91-46, on which yield will accrue based on the assumption that the Mortgage Loans will be prepaid at constant prepayment rate (CPR) annually set forth in the related MSR Package Confirmation and the assumption that the Mortgage Loans will default at a constant default rate (CDR) annually set forth in the related MSR Package Confirmation.

(a) the Seller’s or the applicable Subservicer’s failure to comply following the applicable Closing Date with Applicable Requirements and Accepted Servicing Practices relating to the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans or any breach of its representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, or any termination of the Seller as servicer for cause by the Agency;

(b) to the extent of amounts received by the Seller or the Subservicer in respect of such prior servicing claims under the MSR Purchase Agreement, any servicing act or omission of any prior servicer relating to any Mortgage Loan (including, remitting any indemnity amounts received from the Loan Seller pursuant to MSR Purchase Agreement in connection with any breaches or repurchase of Mortgage Loans, in each case, to the extent such Losses relate to the True Excess Spread);

(c) any act, error or omission of the Seller or any Subservicer in servicing any of the Mortgage Loans, including improper action or failure to act when required to do so, that has a material adverse effect on the True Excess Spread;

(d) any exercise of any rights of setoff or other netting arrangements by the Agency against the Seller that results in a shortfall of funds to pay the True Excess Spread;

(e) any breach by the Seller of the MSR Purchase Agreement except for any matter due to the Seller’s breach of any obligations under such MSR Purchase Agreement that is associated with a breach by the Purchaser; and

(f) litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions or decrees, the basis for which occurred after the Agreement Date, resulting from any of the items described in Section 10.01(a), (b),(c), (d) or (e) directly above;

provided, however, that the applicable Purchaser Indemnitee has taken all commercially reasonable and appropriate actions within its reasonable control to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses as reasonably requested by Seller, which such failure of mitigation shall not relieve Seller of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.01 but may affect the amount of such obligation; and provided further, that any Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to any attempt to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses shall be reimbursed by Seller as part of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.01. For the avoidance of doubt, Losses under this Section 10.01 shall include the fair value of any True Excess Spread associated with any Mortgage Servicing Rights as to which the Seller resigns without the consent of the Purchaser or is terminated by the Agency pursuant to a Termination With Cause. Purchaser shall notify Seller promptly after receiving written notice of the assertion of any litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions, decrees or any third party claims subject to indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Purchaser Third Party Claim”). Upon receipt of such notice of a Purchaser Third Party Claim, Seller shall have the right to assume the defense of such Purchaser Third Party Claim using counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Purchaser Indemnitee, but may not enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of the applicable Purchaser Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. A Purchaser Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel and to otherwise separately defend itself at its own expense but shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Purchaser Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any exercise of such rights by a Purchaser Indemnitee shall not relieve Seller of its obligations and liabilities under this Section 10.01 or any other provision of this Agreement.

The indemnification provided by the Seller herein shall be with respect to Losses involving third-parties and Losses between the Purchaser and Seller.

Section 10.02 Indemnification by Purchaser.

Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller, its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, representatives and advisors (the “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless from and shall reimburse the applicable Seller Indemnitee for any Losses suffered or incurred by any Seller Indemnitee which result from:

(a) any material breach of a representation or warranty by Purchaser, or non- fulfillment of any covenant or obligation of Purchaser contained in this Agreement; or

(b) litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions or decrees, the basis for which occurred after the Agreement Date, resulting from any of the items described in Section 10.02(a) directly above;

provided, however, that the applicable Seller Indemnitee has taken all commercially reasonable and appropriate actions within its reasonable control to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses as reasonably requested by Purchaser, which such failure of mitigation shall not relieve Purchaser of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.02 but may affect the amount of such obligation; and provided further, that any Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnitee pursuant to any attempt to mitigate any such losses, damages, deficiencies, claims, causes of action or expenses shall be reimbursed by Purchaser as part of its indemnification obligations in this Section 10.02. Seller shall notify Purchaser promptly after receiving written notice of the assertion of any litigation, proceedings, governmental investigations, orders, injunctions, decrees or any third party claims subject to indemnification under this Agreement (each, a “Seller Third Party Claim”). Upon receipt of such notice of a Seller Third Party Claim, Purchaser shall have the right to assume the defense of such Seller Third Party Claim using counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Seller Indemnitee, but may not enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. A Seller Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel and to otherwise separately defend itself but shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Seller Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any exercise of such rights by a Seller Indemnitee shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations and liabilities under this Section 10.02 or any other provision of this Agreement. With respect to any Seller Third Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Agreement, the applicable Seller Indemnitee shall be required to cooperate in good faith with Purchaser to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Seller Third Party Claim. The indemnification provided by the Purchaser herein shall be with respect to Losses involving third-parties and Losses between the Purchaser and Seller.

Section 11.21 Purchaser Acknowledgment, Agency’s Reliance.

Purchaser and Seller hereby acknowledge that Purchaser’s right to the True Excess Spread, the Collateral, Seller’s right to the Mortgage Servicing Rights, and their respective rights under this Agreement are subject and subordinate to all rights of the Agency under (i) the Agency Agreements and (ii) the Mortgage Selling and Servicing Contract, the Fannie Mae Selling Guide, the Fannie Mae Servicing Guide and any supplemental servicing instructions or directives provided by the Agency, all applicable master agreements, recourse agreements, repurchase agreements, indemnification agreements, loss-sharing agreements, and any other agreements between the Agency and the Seller, and all as amended, restated or supplemented from time to time (collectively, the “Fannie Mae Lender Contract”), which rights include the right of the Agency to terminate the Fannie Mae Lender Contract with or without cause and the right to sell, or have transferred, the servicing rights.

The Parties agree that in the event of an actual or apparent conflict between the provisions of the Agency Agreements or Servicing Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Agency Agreements or Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall govern.

Section 11.22 Tax Reporting.

It is the intention of the Parties that, at the option of Purchaser, the arrangement under which the True Excess Spread is held will be treated as a simple custodial or participation arrangement. All transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be reported on all applicable tax returns consistently with the treatment described in Section 3.06(c), unless otherwise required by law in a proceeding of final determination. The Purchaser will prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed any federal, state and local income tax or information returns that are required to be filed with respect to the True Excess Spread in a due and timely manner. The Purchaser shall accrue original issue discount based on the purchase price and projected payments using the constant prepayment rate and constant default rate set forth in the MSR Package Confirmation and applying the methods described under Section 1272(a)(6) of the Code. The Seller shall provide any information in its possession reasonably requested by the Purchaser in connection with the foregoing and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with the tax reporting with respect to the True Excess Spread.

This confirmation (this “Confirmation”) between Glassbridge Enterprises Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Purchaser”), and Greenway Mortgage Funding Corp., a New Jersey corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Seller”), sets forth the agreement pursuant to which the Purchaser is purchasing, and the Seller is selling, the True Excess Spread related to the Mortgage Loans identified on Annex A attached hereto.

In the event (but only in the event) that the conveyance of the True Excess Spread is characterized by a court or Governmental Authority as security for a loan rather than a sale, Seller will be deemed to have granted to Purchaser, and Seller hereby grants to Purchaser, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the True Excess Spread and all proceeds thereof as security for a loan in an amount of the Purchase Price.

1.	Sale of True Excess Spread related to the Mortgage Loans. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in the Agreement, on the related Closing Date the Seller shall thereby transfer to the Purchaser, all of the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the True Excess Spread related to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 2.01 of the Agreement.

Delivery of the signatures in Portable Document Format (PDF) or by facsimile transmission shall be deemed valid and binding to the same extent as the original.
