(“Seller”). This Amendment amends that certain Transactions Terms Letter by and between Buyer and Seller dated as of June 30, 2010 (the “Transactions Terms Letter”), which supplements that certain Master Repurchase Agreement by and between Buyer and Seller dated as of May 1, 2009 (as may be amended from time to time, the “Agreement”).

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Buyer and Seller hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                                       Expiration Date.  Buyer and Seller agree that the Expiration Date set forth within the Transactions Terms Letter shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, following the expiration date of such Extension, all indebtedness due Buyer under the Principal Agreements shall be immediately due and payable without notice to Seller and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Seller.”

 

2.                                       No Other Amendments; Conflicts with Previous Amendments.  Other than as expressly modified and amended herein, the Transactions Terms Letter shall remain in full force and effect and nothing herein shall affect the rights and remedies of Buyer as provided under the Transactions Terms Letter and Agreement. To the extent any amendments to the Transactions Terms Letter contained herein conflict with any previous amendments to the Transactions Terms Letter, the amendments contained herein shall control.
