AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO THE PRICING SIDE LETTER
This Amendment No. 2 to the Pricing Side Letter, dated as of October 10, 2025 (this “Amendment”), is entered into by and among [*] Global Investment Bank 2, as buyer (the “Buyer”), AOMR TRS SPE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as seller (“Seller”), and Angel Oak Mortgage REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, as guarantor (“Guarantor”). Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Pricing Side Letter (as defined below).
WHEREAS, the parties hereto entered into that certain Pricing Side Letter, dated as of March 28, 2024 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Pricing Side Letter”); and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend the Pricing Side Letter as described below;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
Section 1.Amendments. Effective as of the Amendment Effective Date, the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended as follows:
(a)Section 1 of the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended by deleting the definition of “Market Value” in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
“Market Value” means, (i) with respect to each Underlying Mortgage Loan, as of the initial Purchase Date (and, if applicable, the date of the initial Purchase Price Increase Transaction) of such Underlying Mortgage Loan and, solely with respect to each Underlying Mortgage Loan which is not identified in the following clause (ii), as of any date thereafter, the bid-side fair market value of an arms-length transaction between two consenting parties, expressed as a dollar amount, as determined by Buyer in its sole good faith discretion as of such date of determination; provided, however, that Seller shall have the option, at its sole expense, to acquire and deliver to Buyer (a) a third party valuation of any Underlying Mortgage Loan, from a third party approved by Buyer in its reasonable discretion or (b) a bona fide third party bid to purchase any Underlying Mortgage Loan if the Market Value of such Underlying Mortgage Loan as determined by Buyer in accordance with this clause (i) declined by more than 5% and results in a Margin Deficit; and (ii) solely with respect to each Underlying Mortgage Loan that is a First Lien Mortgage Loan or Second Lien Mortgage Loan that has all payments current or is less than sixty (60) Days Delinquent, as of any date after the initial Purchase Date (and, if applicable, the date of the initial Purchase Price Increase Transaction) of such First Lien Mortgage Loan or Second Lien Mortgage Loan, as applicable, the product of (a) the difference between (1) the ratio of (A) the Market Value of such First Lien Mortgage Loan or Second Lien Mortgage Loan, as applicable, as of the prior date of determination
1
130959726\V-3
to (B) the unpaid principal balance of such First Lien Mortgage Loan or Second Lien Mortgage Loan, as applicable, as of the prior date of determination and (2) the product of (A) the Underlying Mortgage Loan’s Duration and (B) any change in the applicable interest rate since the prior date of determination as calculated using the Treasury Curve Reference Rate and (b) the unpaid principal balance of such First Lien Mortgage Loan or Second Lien Mortgage Loan, as applicable, as of such date of determination. Each Seller Party acknowledges that Buyer’s determination of Market Value is for the limited purpose of determining the value of the Underlying Mortgage Loans that are subject to Transactions under the Repurchase Agreement without the ability to perform customary purchaser’s due diligence and is not necessarily equivalent to a determination of the fair market value of such assets achieved by obtaining competing bids in an orderly market in which the originator/servicer is not in default under a revolving debt facility and the bidders have adequate opportunity to perform customary loan and servicing due diligence.
(b)Section 1 of the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended by deleting the definition of “Pricing Rate” in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
“Pricing Rate” means, [*] provided, however, that the Pricing Rate shall be equal to the Base Rate to the extent provided in Section 40(e) of the Repurchase Agreement.
(c)Section 1 of the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended by deleting the definition of “Purchase Price Percentage” in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
“Purchase Price Percentage” means, [*] For the avoidance of doubt, regardless of whether an Underlying Mortgage Loan is subject to a forbearance or deferral, such Underlying Mortgage Loan will be considered delinquent if the Mortgagor fails to make a monthly payment prior to the close of business on the day that immediately precedes the due date on which the next monthly payment is due in accordance with the MBA Method of Delinquency.
(d)Section 1 of the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended by adding the following new definitions of “Treasury Curve Reference Rate” and “Underlying Mortgage Loan’s Duration” in the appropriate alphabetical order:
“Treasury Curve Reference Rate” means, the published U.S. Treasury securities interpolated I-curve, as determined by the Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion, based on the rate found on the Bloomberg page “BBG GC I25”.
“Underlying Mortgage Loan’s Duration” means, the initial duration period listed on the Transaction Request, and thereafter the duration as adjusted by the Buyer, in its sole discretion, (i) on each monthly anniversary of the related Purchase Date or (ii) upon any repayment of any portion of the related Purchase Price with respect to such Transaction.
2
130959726\V-3
(e)Schedule 1 to the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended by deleting paragraph 23 to the exclusions from the description of Eligible Mortgage Loans in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
23. Any Mortgage Loan where the related Mortgagor had a FICO score less than 660 at the time of origination, the Asset Value of which, when added to the Asset Values of all other Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions where the related Mortgagor had a FICO score less than 660 at the time of origination causes the percentage of the Asset Value of all Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions where the related Mortgagor had a FICO score less than 660 at the time of origination to the Asset Value of all Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions to be greater than 15%;
(f)Schedule 1 to the Pricing Side Letter is hereby amended by deleting references to “and HELOCs and “or HELOCs” in paragraphs 35 and 36 to the exclusions from the description of Eligible Mortgage Loans.
Section 2.Conditions to Effectiveness of this Amendment. This Amendment shall become effective on the date on which Buyer shall have received and Seller shall have completed, or shall have caused to be completed, the following conditions (such date, the “Amendment Effective Date”):
(a)the execution and delivery of this Amendment by each of the parties hereto; and

This Amendment shall be effective as of the Amendment Effective Date upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2 above and shall not be effective for any period prior to the Amendment Effective Date. After this Amendment becomes effective, all references in the Pricing Side Letter to “this Pricing Side Letter,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of similar effect referring to the Pricing Side Letter or references to the Pricing Side Letter in the other Program Agreements, shall be deemed to be references to the Pricing Side Letter as amended by this Amendment.
