     2. Put Rights

          (a) Grant of Right. The Management Trust shall have the right on each Anniversary Date through the fourth Anniversary Date, subject to the limitations set forth below, to require the Company to redeem (the “Put”) up to 25% of the Put Eligible Shares (the “Put Obligation”); provided, however, that, to the extent the Management Trust sells or otherwise disposes of any Shares during the preceding 12-month period, the number of Put Eligible Shares eligible to be Put to the Company on the subsequent Anniversary Date shall be reduced by the number of Shares so sold or otherwise disposed during such preceding 12-month period. For purposes of the above sentence and this Agreement, to the extent any Shares are transferred to successors or assigns as described in Section 4(c) herein, then such Shares shall not be treated as “sold or otherwise disposed of” in the above definition. The Management Trust may exercise its Put right independently of any other Person. The price per share under the Put Obligation shall be US$16.84 as equitably adjusted for any stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalization or other similar corporate events following the date hereof (the “Put Purchase Price”). The Management Trust must provide an irrevocable notice to the Company of its desire to exercise its Put on or before the relevant Anniversary Date (a “Put Notice”). Except in the event of death or transfer to the grantor of the revocable trust, the rights pursuant to this Section 2 shall not be transferrable by the Management Trust without the Company’s prior written consent.

          (b) Shares Ineligible for Put. No Share owned by the Management Trust shall be subject to the Put Obligation that: (i) is held in escrow pursuant to the Indemnity Escrow Agreement (the “Indemnity Escrow Agreement”); or (ii) is eligible for sale by the Management Trust pursuant to Section 3(b)(i) of this Agreement; or (iii) was eligible to be Put under the Put Obligation on any prior Anniversary Date (collectively, “Ineligible Shares”), and such Put right with respect to such Share shall be forfeited. It is understood and agreed that Ineligible Shares shall be included as part of the initial calculation of the total Shares eligible for the Put and further described in Section 2(b) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of calculating the total number of Put Eligible Shares subject to the Put Obligation, any Shares held in escrow pursuant to the Indemnity Escrow Agreement that are released as a result of a calculation made on an applicable Anniversary Date, shall not be deemed an “Ineligible Share”.

          (c) Satisfaction of Put Obligation. The Company shall satisfy the Put Obligation by paying to the Management Trust an amount equal to the number of Shares that are Put to the Company by the Management Trust multiplied by either (i) the Put Purchase Price (a “Redemption”) or (ii) the amount by which the Put Purchase Price exceeds the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten trading days preceding the most recent Anniversary Date

(a “Net Payment”); provided that if the Company elects to make a Net Payment, the Management Trust shall retain the Shares subject to the Put. Such payment shall be by wire transfer or other immediately available funds to a bank or other account designated by the Management Trust, which bank or other accounts were designated in writing by the Management Trust to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to such payment date by the Company. The Company’s election of method to satisfy the Put Obligation shall be in its sole discretion, may vary among Anniversary Dates and may vary among the other Persons exercising the Put. If the Company elects Redemption, the Management Trust shall deliver to the Company within 30 days after the applicable Anniversary Date assignments of stock or similar documentation as might be required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the transfer of ownership of such Shares Put to the Company. The Company shall deliver to the Management Trust the funds necessary to satisfy the Redemption or Net Payment, as applicable, within 45 days after the applicable Anniversary Date.

          (d) Conditions Precedent to Put Obligation. The Put Obligation shall terminate:

               (i) If the employment with the Company or one of its Affiliates of                                          (“Management Owner”) is terminated by the Company based solely upon a felony conviction or the Management Owner resigns for other than “good reason” (as defined in the Management Owner’s employment agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Management Owner’s employment is terminated for other than a felony conviction, or the Management Owner resigns for “good reason,” dies or becomes permanently disabled, the Management Owner will retain the rights under the Put Obligation.

               (ii) With respect to the Shares that may be Put to the Company as of any Anniversary Date if either (A) 80% of the Top 20 Members of the Best Mortgage Cooperative, Inc. (the “Cooperative”) during the prior twelve months determined as of the date hereof, and determined on each Anniversary Date, respectively, are not members of the Cooperative on the subsequent Anniversary Date, provided, however, that the Top 20 Members shall be determined after excluding those members of the Cooperative that are (x) acquired in an arm’s length transaction by an unaffiliated third party, (y) asked by the Company to resign as a member due to failure to follow a management directive, or (z) who cease operations (each, an “Excluded Member”) or (B) the overall number of members of the Cooperative fails to grow annually on a cumulative basis, after exclusion of the Excluded Members for all prior twelve (12) month periods. By way of example, if a Top 20 Member as of the date hereof ceased operations as of the first Anniversary Date, then such member would not be counted as a Top 20 Member in such calculation set forth in Section 2(d)(ii)(A) above and such member would be replaced by the next member on the list of members that would otherwise qualify as a potential Top 20 Member and did not become an Excluded Member as a result of a subsequent event in the succeeding 12 months.

               (iii) If the conditions set forth in Section 2(d)(ii)(A) are not satisfied as of an applicable Anniversary Date, the Management Trust shall forfeit its Put right with respect to such Anniversary Date, but the Management Trust may exercise its Put right with respect to a successive Anniversary Date (through the fourth Anniversary Date), if the other conditions set

forth in Section 2(d)(ii)(A) and otherwise contained in this Agreement are satisfied for such subsequent Anniversary Date.

          (e) Dispute Resolution. If the Management Trust submits a Put Notice with respect to Shares that the Company disputes are eligible to be Put because such Share is ineligible to be Put under Section 2(b) or one or more conditions precedent to the Put Obligation under Section 2(d) are not satisfied, then the Company shall provide a “Notice of Objection” to such Management Trust by the tenth (10^th) Business Day following the Company’s receipt of the applicable Put Notice. The Company’s failure to provide timely a Notice of Objection shall be deemed an acceptance by the Company of the Put Notice and upon such failure, with respect to such Put Notice only, then the following shall occur (i) the conditions precedent under Section 2(d) shall automatically be deemed satisfied, (ii) the Company shall have waived its right to object under the Put Failure Escrow and (iii) Section 2(d) shall not be applicable. The Notice of Objection shall contain information sufficient to support the Company’s objection. The Company and the Management Trust shall attempt to resolve the dispute during the successive 10-Business Day period, after which either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration to be conducted in Indianapolis, Indiana, or such other location mutually agreed to by the Company and the Management Trust with whom an unresolved objection remains. The arbitration shall be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and decided by a panel of three impartial and independent arbitrators. The Management Trust shall select one arbitrator; the Company shall select one arbitrator; and the two selected arbitrators shall select the third arbitrator within 15 days of the day the last of the two arbitrators is selected. If the two arbitrators cannot agree on the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Within 45 days of the date of submission of the matter(s) to binding arbitration, the arbitrators shall convene a preliminary hearing to determine the schedule for the arbitration, including the date of the arbitration hearing which shall be conducted as expeditiously as possible after the demand for arbitration and in any event within 120 days after the submittal of the matter(s) to arbitration, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties thereto. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final, non-appealable and binding on all parties, and judgment may be entered upon it by any court of competent jurisdiction.

          (f) Put Failure. In the event the conditions precedent under Section 2(d) are deemed to have been satisfied, either automatically or as determined by binding arbitration, and the Shares Put to the Company are Put Eligible Shares, and the Company then fails to duly satisfy a Put Obligation within the next five Business Days (each, a “Put Failure”), the following rights and remedies will be available to the Management Trust in addition to the Management Trust having the right to enforce its rights under any other agreement and pursue any other rights and remedies available to the Management Trust at law or in equity including, but not limited to, seeking specific performance (subject to the case of (i) and (ii) below of the Management Trust’s compliance with its share transfer obligations under Section 2(c)):

               (i) that amount of the Put Failure Escrow required to satisfy such Put Obligation would be released to the Management Trust; and

               (ii) any non-compete and non-poaching obligations of the Management Trust and Management Owner would be eliminated in the Purchase Agreement,

such Management Owner Employment Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (unless the parties otherwise agree in writing), and all Shares held by the Management Trust would fully vest and immediately become Unrestricted Stock (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) if such stock were previously Restricted Stock (as defined in the Purchase Agreement); and

               (iii) all transfer restrictions imposed by this Agreement or imposed by the Rights Agreement on all Shares of the Management Trust shall terminate, and all Shares of the Management Trust shall fully vest.

          (g) Funding of Put Right Escrow Agreement. The Company shall deposit a total of $1,063,896 in cash into escrow pursuant to the Put Right Escrow Agreement, which shall satisfy the Company’s obligation to fund such escrow with respect to the Management Trust and all other parties to the Put Right Escrow Agreement and shall be deposited in 12 monthly installments of $88,658 on the first Business Day of each calendar month following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

     3. Transfer Restrictions.

          (a) Volume Limitations.

               (i) Until the fourth Anniversary Date, after the Shares are transferrable pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or otherwise not subject to volume limitations imposed by the 1933 Act, the Management Trust may only sell up to 25% of the shares of Restricted Stock (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) received by the Management Trust (excluding any shares of Restricted Stock then held pursuant to the Indemnity Escrow Agreement) during any twelve-month period ending on an Anniversary Date.

               (ii) The number of Shares that may be sold by the Management Trust will be increased (subject to any federal or state securities laws) if the Insider Shareholders (defined as William B. Shepro, Robert D. Stiles and Kevin J. Wilcox) sell, a weighted average based on holdings of each such Insider Shareholder on the date hereof or such Anniversary Date as appropriate, during the applicable twelve-month period ending on an Anniversary Date more than 25% of the Company shares (excluding shares acquired pursuant to any Company incentive compensation program) that they own as of the date hereof or the immediately preceding Anniversary Date, as applicable (the “Threshold Insider Sale Amount”). If sales by the Insider Shareholders during any twelve-month period ending on an Anniversary Date exceed the Threshold Insider Sale Amount, then the Management Trust may sell, during the next applicable twelve-month period ending on the subsequent Anniversary Date only, a number of additional Shares not to exceed the absolute percentage of total shares sold by the Insider Shareholders in excess of 25%. Any increase in the number of Shares eligible for sale by the Management Trust pursuant to this subsection shall not increase the number of Shares subject to the Put Obligation. If the Management Trust elects to sell Shares that become transferrable pursuant to this subsection, the Management Trust must give the Company ten Business Days’ notice, and the Company may elect to redeem such Shares within five Business Days at the then market price.

               (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 3(a)(i) of this Agreement shall not be applicable to any Shares held by a Management Trust that were eligible to be sold under Section 3(a)(i) during the twelve-month period ending on any prior Anniversary Date but were not sold by such Management Trust.

          (b) Vesting.

               (i) If at any time after the second Anniversary Date, shares of Common Stock reach or exceed at closing a price of $45.00 per share (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends or recapitalizations following the date hereof) for thirty (30) consecutive trading days, all Shares shall fully vest with such holder and all transfer restrictions imposed by this Agreement and all rights under Section 2(a) shall terminate.

               (ii) All transfer restrictions imposed by this Agreement on all Shares of the Management Trust shall terminate and all Shares and all rights under Section 2(a) of the Management Trust shall fully vest (resulting, without limitation, in the Management Trust having the right to Put, and the associated Put Obligation covering up to, 100% of the Put Eligible Shares received by the Management Trust pursuant to the Purchase Agreement less the number of Ineligible Shares) upon (i) a Change in Control of the Company or MPA and (ii) the occurrence of one of the following events within six (6) months from the date of such Change in Control: (A) the Management Owner has his responsibilities significantly reduced, his employment is terminated without “cause” (as defined in the Management Owner’s employment agreement), or the Management Owner resigns from the Company for “good reason” (as defined in the Management Owner’s employment agreement) or (B) the business of MPA is discontinued by the Person or “group” that is the successor to the Company after the Change in Control.
