EXECUTION VERSION

GUARANTY

GUARANTY, dated as of November 17, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guaranty”), made by Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company  (the  “Guarantor”), in favor of BNP Paribas (the “Buyer”). 

RECITALS

Pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Repurchase Agreement”), among PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (the “Seller”), the Guarantor and the Buyer, the Buyer has agreed from time to time to enter into transactions with Seller upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein.  It is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Buyer to enter into Transactions with the Seller under the Repurchase Agreement that the Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty to the Buyer.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Buyer to enter into the Repurchase Agreement and engage in Transactions with the Seller, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor hereby agrees to guarantee the Seller’s obligations under the Repurchase Agreement, as may be amended from time to time.

1. Defined Terms.

(a) Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Repurchase Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Repurchase Agreement.

(b) For purposes of this Guaranty, “Obligations” shall mean all obligations and liabilities of the Seller to the Buyer, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter incurred, or whether for payment or for performance (including, without limitation, Price Differential accruing after the Repurchase Date for the Transactions and Price Differential accruing after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to the Seller, whether or not a claim for post filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding), which may arise under, or out of or in connection with the Repurchase Agreement, this Guaranty and/or any other Facility Documents and/or any other document made, delivered or given in connection therewith or herewith, whether on account of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, fees, indemnities, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel to the Buyer that are required to be paid by the Seller pursuant to the terms of such documents), all “claims” (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) of the Buyer against the Seller, or otherwise, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include, without limitation, the “Obligations” (as defined in the Repurchase Agreement).

(c) The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Guaranty shall refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular

provision of this Guaranty and section and paragraph references are to this Guaranty unless otherwise specified.

(d) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.

2. Guarantee.   Guarantor hereby, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Buyer and its successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Seller when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations.  The guarantee provided hereunder is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collectability, and is a primary obligation of the Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety.

(a) Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Buyer in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, the Guarantor under this Guaranty.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the termination of the Repurchase Agreement or (ii) the Obligations are paid in full and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are paid in full, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Seller may be free from any Obligations.

(b) No payment or payments made by the Seller, the Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Buyer from the Seller, the Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set‑off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments other than payments made by the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or payments received or collected from the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations, remain liable for the Obligations until the Obligations are paid in full and the Repurchase Agreement is terminated, subject to the reinstatement provisions of Section 7 hereof.

(c) Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, Guarantor shall make any payment to the Buyer on account of Guarantor’s liability hereunder, Guarantor will notify the Buyer in writing that such payment is made under this Guaranty for such purpose.

3. Right of Set‑off.  In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer has the right (but shall not be obligated), without prior notice to Guarantor or any other person, any such notice being expressly waived by Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return excess margin), credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, at any place of payment or booking office, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the

‑2‑

credit or the account of Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof.  Buyer agrees to promptly and in good faith notify Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

4. No Subrogation.  Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder or any set‑off or application of funds of the Guarantor by the Buyer, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Buyer against the Seller or any other guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Buyer for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Seller or any other guarantor in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Buyer by the Seller on account of the Obligations are paid in full and the Repurchase Agreement is terminated. The Guarantor hereby subordinates all of its subrogation rights against Seller to the full payment of Obligations due Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement for a period of 91 days following the final payment of the last of all of the Obligations under the Facility Documents.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Buyer, segregated from other funds of Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Buyer in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Buyer, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Buyer may determine.

5. Amendments, Etc. with Respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights.  Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Buyer may be rescinded by the Buyer and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Buyer, and the Repurchase Agreement, and the other Facility Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Buyer may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Buyer for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.  The Buyer shall not have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guaranty or any property subject thereto.  When making any demand hereunder against Guarantor, the Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Seller or any other guarantor, and any failure by the Buyer to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Seller or any such other guarantor or any release of the Seller or such other guarantor shall not relieve Guarantor of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Buyer against Guarantor.  For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

‑5‑

waiver), failure by the Buyer to perfect a security interest in any collateral securing performance of any Obligation or to realize the value of any collateral or other assets which may be available to satisfy any Obligation and any delay by the Buyer in exercising any of its rights hereunder or against the Seller.    

11. Notices.  All notices, requests and other communications provided for herein (including without limitation any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Guaranty) shall be given or made in writing (including without limitation by electronic transmission) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages of the Repurchase Agreement; or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party.  All such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted electronically or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

12. Entire Agreement; Severability; Single Agreement.  This Guaranty, together with the other Facility Documents, constitutes the entire understanding between Buyer and Guarantor with respect to the subject matter they cover and supersedes any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for a guaranty related to repurchase transactions involving Purchased Assets.  By acceptance of this Guaranty, Buyer and Guarantor acknowledge that they have not made, and are not relying upon, any statements, representations, promises or undertakings not contained in this Guaranty or any other Facility Document.  Each provision and agreement herein will be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and will be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.  If for any reason any provision of this Guaranty shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

13. Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  None of the terms or provisions of this Guaranty may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the Guarantor and the Buyer, provided that any provision of this Guaranty may be waived by the Buyer.

(a) The Buyer shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to clause (a) above), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof.  No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Buyer, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  A waiver by the Buyer of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Buyer would otherwise have on any future occasion.

(b) The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.
