Amendment No. 5 to Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of June 29, 2018 (this “Amendment”), by and among Bank of America, N.A. (“Buyer”), PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (“Seller”) and PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (“Guarantor”).

Buyer, Seller and Guarantor are parties to that certain Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of July 9, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing Master Repurchase Agreement”; as further amended by this Amendment, the “Master Repurchase Agreement”). The Guarantor is a party to that certain Guaranty, dated as of July 9, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Guaranty”), made by Guarantor in favor of Buyer.

Buyer, Seller and Guarantor have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, that the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement be amended to reflect certain agreed upon revisions to the terms of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement. As a condition precedent to amending the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement, Buyer has required Guarantor to ratify and affirm the Guaranty on the date hereof.

Accordingly, Buyer, Seller and Guarantor hereby agree, in consideration of the mutual promises and mutual obligations set forth herein, that the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

Section 1.Definitions. Section 2 of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by:

1.1deleting the definitions of “Effective Date”, “Expiration Date”, “Over/Under Account Interest Rate” and “Price Differential Payment Date” in their entirety and replacing them with the following:

“Over/Under Account Interest Rate” means, with respect to amounts in the Over/Under Account, provided that Buyer has not declared an Event of Default at any time during any calendar quarter, quarterly interest on the average amounts on deposit in the Over/Under Account during such quarter (the “Average O/U Balance”) in an amount equal to the sum of the following calculations:

(a) with respect to the portion of the Average O/U Balance that is less than or equal to 25% of the average aggregate outstanding Purchase Price during such quarter (the “Applicable Average O/U Balance”), the product of (a) the Applicable Average O/U

Balance, (b) an annual rate equal to (x) the greater of the average LIBOR during such quarter or LIBOR Floor plus (y) the greater of (i) the Applicable Pricing Rate for Type A Mortgage Loans minus 0.50% or (ii) 0%, and (c) the actual number of days in such calendar quarter, divided by 365; plus

(b) with respect to the portion (if any) of the Average O/U Balance that exceeds the Applicable Average O/U Balance but is less than the average aggregate outstanding Purchase Price during such quarter (the “Remaining Applicable Average O/U Balance”), the product of (a) the Remaining Applicable Average O/U Balance, (b) an annual rate equal to the greater of (x) the average LIBOR during such quarter minus 0.25%, or (y) 0%, and (c) the actual number of days in such calendar quarter, divided by 365.

For the avoidance of doubt, should the Seller be entitled to any quarterly interest on the average amounts on deposit in the Over/Under Account pursuant to the aforementioned, such interest will be deposited in the Over/Under Account on the Payment Date following each quarter-end and beginning on the first calendar quarter wherein no interest was previously deposited by Buyer.

“Price Differential Payment Date” means, with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan, the fifth (5th) Business Day of the month following the related Purchase Date and each succeeding fifth (5th) Business Day of the month thereafter; provided, that, with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, the final Price Differential Payment Date shall be the related Repurchase Date.

“Anti-Money Laundering Laws” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 13(a)(30).

“Beneficial Ownership Certification” means a certification regarding beneficial ownership required by the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

“Correspondent Mortgage Loan” means a Mortgage Loan originated by a third party originator and acquired by Seller in accordance with Seller’s correspondent Mortgage Loan program.

“Payment Date” means with respect to Over/Under Account interest, the tenth (10th) Business Day of each quarter; provided, however, that Buyer may change the Payment Date from time to time upon thirty (30) days prior notice to Seller.
