The JPMorgan MRA Amendment No. 1 includes a reaffirmation of the Company’s obligations under the Parent Guaranty. In all other respects the terms of the JP Morgan Master Repurchase Agreement, including the Parent Guaranty, remain unchanged.

This Amendment No. 1 to Master Repurchase Agreement (this “Amendment”), dated as of December 13, 2024 (the “Amendment Date”), entered into by and among JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”) on behalf of one or more buyers from time to time (the “Buyers”) and as assignee of Flagstar Bank, N.A. (“Flagstar”), Radian Mortgage Capital LLC, as seller (“Seller”) and Radian Group Inc., as guarantor (“Guarantor”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Seller, Guarantor and Flagstar entered into that certain Master Repurchase Agreement and Securities Contract, dated as of January 29, 2024, which was assigned to Administrative Agent and amended pursuant to that certain Assignment and Amendment Agreement (the “Assignment and Amendment Agreement”), effective as of July 22, 2024 (as amended by the Assignment and Amendment Agreement and as may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing Master Repurchase Agreement” as amended by this Amendment and as may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Master Repurchase Agreement);

WHEREAS, in furtherance of the foregoing, Seller, Guarantor and Administrative Agent desire to amend certain provisions of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement, effective on the Amendment Date, as set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the continued performance by Seller and Guarantor of its promises and obligations under the Master Repurchase Agreement and the other Principal Agreements, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller, Guarantor and Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Master Repurchase Agreement.

2. Amendments to Existing Master Repurchase Agreement. As of the Amendment Date, the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(a) The definition of “Facility Termination Date” in Section 1.1 of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Facility Termination Date” means the earliest of (a) the earliest to occur of (i) December 12, 2025 and (ii) upon Administrative Agent’s declaration that amounts are immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or (b) the date on which this Agreement shall terminate in accordance with the provisions hereof or by operation of law.


(b) Section 1.1 of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended to include the following definition in correct alphabetical order:

Maximum Transaction Amount” means $125,000,000 (the “Advised Amount”); provided that Administrative Agent and Seller hereby agree that Seller is approved for a Maximum Transaction Amount of $300,000,000 and Seller may request to increase the then-applicable Maximum Transaction Amount by providing written notice to Administrative Agent at any time prior to the Facility Termination Date, which such request may be approved in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. If Seller requests a Maximum Transaction Amount in an aggregate amount that is in excess of the Advised Amount, Administrative Agent may approve such a Temporary Increase in its sole discretion, and the Maximum Transaction Amount shall be the Temporary Maximum Transaction Amount for so long as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, permits such Temporary Increase to exist.

(c) All references to “Aged Transaction” and “Aged Transaction Prepayment Amount” are removed from the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement entirely.

3. Effectiveness of this Amendment; Conditions Precedent. The provisions of this Amendment shall be deemed to have become effective upon the later to occur of the execution and delivery of (a) this Amendment by all parties hereto and (b) Amendment No. 2 to the Fee and Pricing Side Letter by all parties thereto, but such effectiveness shall be expressly conditioned upon Administrative Agent’s receipt of a counterpart of this Amendment executed and delivered by duly authorized signatories of Seller, Guarantor and Administrative Agent.

4. Miscellaneous.

The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions
